Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

This book is unique in structure and style. The conversational mode presents a lively content ... and this slender volume has gone beyond expectations to present Parekh's life and thought coherently, for which Jahanbegloo must be congratulated. (Sarbeswar Sahoo, Political Studies Review Vol. 11)

This book is an interesting interaction between an Iranian and an Indian; both humanists, secularists, highly educated and vastly informed ... This book ought to be made required reading in every Indian university. (Reginald Massey, Confluence)

Reseña del editor:

The fifth in the series of Ramin Jahanbegloo's interviews of prominent intellectuals who have influenced modern Indian thought, in Talking Politics Jahanbegloo converses with Bhikhu Parekh, one of the leading political philosophers of our time. The book addresses issues encompassing cultural diversity and global ethics to universal moral rights and duties, liberal democracy, and the importance of multiculturalism in the contemporary global scenario. The dialogue flows effortlessly from Parekh's descriptions of his early life in undivided India, his travels in Europe, his experiences in Westminster to discussions on caste-system, untouchability, Islam and Europe, relevance of Gandhian philosophy in contemporary world, and finally his entry into the House of Lords. Engaging and thought-provoking, this book is journey into the life and work of one of the leading political thinkers of our time.
