Theories of Oppression and Another Dialogue of Cultures

Vol - XLVII No. 30, July 28, 2012 | Ashis Nandy

• Perspectives

One of the fi rst tasks of social knowledge in India today is
to return agency to the communities at the receiving end of the system.
We can do so only if we take seriously the various cultural modes of
self-expression of these communities. Democracy can be a slow-moving,
inept, obtuse tool in the case of small communities. But it still
remains a powerful enabling device for those not pushed to the margin of
desperation. Instead of shedding copious tears for the poverty and the
exploitation of the dalits and adivasis, the time has come to celebrate
their self-affi rmation and the enormous diversity of cultural,
ecological, artistic, technological and intellectual riches they, as
communities, have nurtured over the millennia.

The Idea of Happiness

Vol - XLVII No. 02, January 14, 2012 | Ashis Nandy

• Perspectives

The idea of happiness has changed. It has emerged as a
measurable, autonomous, manageable, psychological variable in the global
middle-class culture. The self-conscious, determined search for
happiness has gradually transformed the idea of happiness from a mental
state to an objectified quality of life that can be attained the way an
athlete after training under specialists and going through a strict
regimen of exercises and diet wins a medal in a track meet. Might it be
that the sense of well-being of a mentally healthy person shows its
robustness by being able to live with some amount of unhappiness and
what is commonly seen as ill-health?

Nationalism, Genuine and Spurious

Vol - XLI No. 32, August 12, 2006 | Ashis Nandy

• Perspectives

Nationalism is not patriotism. Nationalism is an ideology and
is configured in human personality the way other ideologies are. It rode
piggyback into the Afro-Asian world in colonial times as an adjunct of
the concept of nation state. Patriotism is a non-specific sentiment
centring on a form of territoriality that humans share with a number of
other species. This unacknowledged difference is central to the spirited
critique of conventional nationalism by Mohandas Gandhi, India's Father
of the Nation, and the total rejection of nationalism by Rabindranath
Tagore, India's national poet.

Sati in Kaliyuga

Vol - XXIII No. 38, September 17, 1988 | Ashis Nandy

• Discussion

NEARLY twenty years ago in 1968, at the Indian Institute of
Advanced Study, Simla, I made my first public presentation on sati. It
was subsequently delivered as a Rammohan Roy Bicentennial Lecture at the
Nehru Museum and Library, and further revised for my book, At the Edge
of Psychology.1 A few years later, an empirical refutation of my
position was attempted as part of a broader critique by Sanjukta Gupta
and Richard Gombrich. The critique and my reply to it was published in a
symposium.2 Since then I have on and off spoken in the public fora on
sati and, also, tried to keep in touch with social activists worried
about the occasional instances of sati in the country. At least one
group of them have used my essay as a text. After the death of Roop
Kanwar at Deorala, Rajasthan, on September 4, 1987, I have published two
briefer essays, not so much on sati as on modern India's present
response to it.3 During the twenty years, in the context of sati. I did
not bear of Imrana Quadeer, Zoya Hasan, Sujata Patel and Krishna Kumar.4
It is possible that none of them was born early enough for us to hear
of his or her interest in sati, and that all of them have reached
adulthood at about the time Roop Kanwar died. In that case I plead
guilty to the charge of suspecting that all these wor-" thies have
jumped on the band wagon of the urban, decultured Indian bourgeoisie to
win some easy applause at bargain price. Nevertheless, the fact remains
that they have systematically distorted my position on sati. In case
your readers have not read my essays on sati but only the diatribes
against me, I wish to state the following:

Culture, State and the Rediscovery of Indian Politics

Vol - XIX No. 49, December 08, 1984 | Ashis Nandy

• Special Articles

Culture, State and the Rediscovery of Indian Politics Ashis
Nandy The relationship between culture and the state may be viewed in
two ways. One is to look for the means by which culture can be made to
contribute to the sustenance and growth of the state. Elements of
culture which help strengthen the state are seen as good; those which do
not help the proper functioning of the state or hinder its growth are
seen as defective. The second way of looking at the relationship between
culture and the state is to do so from the stand-point of culture. This
approach may regard the state as a protector, an internal critic or a
thermostat for culture, but not as the ultimate pace-setter for the
society's way of life.
