Description: "Gandhi and Marx" by K. G. Mashruwala is a comparative analysis of the philosophies and ideologies of Mahatma Gandhi and Karl Marx, two influential figures whose thoughts shaped the course of the 20th century in distinct ways. Mashruwala, a follower of Gandhi, delves into the core principles of both thinkers, examining their views on society, politics, and economics. The book seeks to uncover the commonalities and differences between Gandhi's nonviolent resistance and Marx's revolutionary socialism, providing a nuanced perspective on their respective approaches to social change. Mashruwala explores Gandhi's emphasis on moral and spiritual development as essential to social transformation. Gandhi's belief in nonviolence (ahimsa), truth (satya), and self-sufficiency (swadeshi) forms the backbone of his philosophy, advocating for a peaceful and just society through personal and collective ethical conduct. In contrast, Marx's materialist conception of history and class struggle emphasizes the overthrow of capitalist structures through revolution, aiming to establish a classless, stateless society. Mashruwala highlights how Gandhi's approach is rooted in ethical idealism, while Marx's is grounded in economic and historical determinism. The book also addresses the practical implications of their ideologies. Gandhi's vision of a decentralized, village-based economy contrasts with Marx's vision of a centralized, industrialized society. Mashruwala argues that while Gandhi focuses on the individual's role in achieving social harmony, Marx prioritizes structural changes to address economic inequalities. By examining their differing methodologies and ultimate goals, Mashruwala provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how these two giants of political thought envisioned the path to human emancipation and social justice.
