Rethinking Democracy

 
Rajni Kothari (Author)
Synopsis Rethinking Democracy is an insightful and reflective monography on democracy in general and Indian democracy in particular. In this work, Rajni Kothari revisits the core arguments he has laid down I his diverse writings in the past four decades. Kothari reflects, interrogates and eve contests some of his earlier formulations o democracy, state and civil society, developing a new paradigm on the basis of his intellectual and activist experience. Kothari makes a powerful critique of prevailing democratic theory and practice in the changing global as well as Indian context and concludes that democracy has failed to achieve its objective of human emancipation. However, this disillusionment with democracy does not deter him from searching for an alternative model for a decentralized, participatory and emancipatory democracy.
