520 _a2.Capitalism, especially Indian capitalism with its monstrous inequalities, has proved to be totally incompatible with democracy when the latter is understood in terms of its basic principles and aspirations-liberty, equality, and comradeship (fraternity is not the appropriate word now). But in transforming Indian society to ensure a better future for the Indian people, radical politics must preserve the kernel of the liberal-political tradition in the process of transcending that heritage. While keeping in place its historic legacy, "New Democracy" needs to be reimagined as part of a longer, truly democratic, human needs-based "political transition period" on the road to socialism. - Reproduce
