Book Summary of Power, Politics And Corruption : A Gandhian Solution The book Power, Politics and Corruption, focuses on howGandhi viewed political power; what is its role in society : can it be usednon-violently : can the element of coercion be removed from it in accordancewith Gandhi's view of non-violent moral power : what was its nature when Gandhigained political power? Did he succeed in eliminating coercive element in hisexercise of his power flows from top to bottom but Gandhi tried to put the wholeprocess in the reverse gear and generated power from below. To what extent hehad been successful in his attempt? It is a matter of great interest to anystudent of political behaviour that while Gandhi was suspicious of the possibleabuses of political power and advocated complete decentralization of it, hehimself exercised immense political power. Was it in accord with his suspicionof power? Was thee any dichotomy between his theory and practice? Are corruptionand criminalisation always the essential ingredients of politics? Has it becomea business or an industry? These questions cannot be answered unless we studyhow Gandhi rose to power and how he wielded it after having gained it. This bookgives different aspects of his political thinking in the light of his actualbehavour in tackling political issues. This book pierces the all pervasive smogof permissiveness surrounding the canker of corruption eating into the vitals ofour body politic.
