Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Swatantra Party, founded in 1959 to provide a right-wing opposition to the ruling Congress Party, has since become the leading opposition in the Indian national parliament. Dr Erdman examines the background, emergence and growth of Swatantra within the framework of conservative politics in India. He first considers the concept of conservatism, and surveys the doctrines, social bases and political organization of the right-wing parties prior to 1959. He then describes how the Swatantra coalition, predominantly an aggregate of provincial parties, was founded by some of India's most distinguished public figures. The later chapters examine in detail the internal structure, ideology, leadership and electoral performance of the party, and its relationship with the other major opposition parties in India. The results of the 1967 elections are discussed in an appendix.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of Indian politics, examining the emergence and development of a non-leftist opposition to the ruling Congress Party in the years following India's independence. The author explores the complexities of conservatism in India, moving beyond simple definitions and instead focusing on the specific challenges and responses faced by various social groups. The book investigates the unique historical context of India, highlighting the absence of a stable national political framework and the presence of diverse social and religious traditions that shaped the country's political landscape. The author explores the fragmented nature of Indian conservatism, which often manifested itself in isolated, regional movements rather than a unified national force. The book then delves into the social dynamics that played a pivotal role in the emergence of a conservative movement, focusing on the tensions between the aristocracy, the landed peasantry, and the business communities. The author examines how these groups interacted with the Congress Party and the government policies that emerged under Prime Minister Nehru, offering insights into the complex and often conflicting interests that shaped the country's political landscape. The book provides a compelling analysis of the factors that contributed to the rise of a conservative opposition in India, offering a nuanced and historically-grounded perspective on a critical period in the country's political development.
