Election results not only pro­vided constitutional answer to the question: Unity of India or Partition, but also hinted at the problems that the people of this region would face after Independence. India in 1946 was facing serious economic problems. Despite this elections were held under limited franchise. Most of the people, particularly, women and lower class, had no voting rights. The post-War freedom movement, and workers' and peasants' movements were, in a sense, the expression of the will of the disenfranchised people. Elections were contested in the arena where the constitutional system and the people's movement crossed each other. In many parts of the world the political system which was formed immediately after the Second World War collapsed in the 1990s. India is one of a few countries in Asia where parliamentary system has survived despite occasional threats. This work tries to grasp the meaning of the 1946 Provincial Elections under historical background, and considers their relevance to the present age.".…

Swami Sahajanand Saraswati, a sanyasi turned kisan (peasant) leader in India, and Bihar in particular, was a prolific writer too, though many of his main writings were prepared while he was in jail (1940-42). His most trusted associate and a kisan sevak (an activist in the service of the peasants) in the 1930s, Jadunandan Sharma left few writings and speeches. Though he was a graduate of Banaras University, he was a C class prisoner at the Patna Camp Jail after he joined the Salt Satyagraha in 1930. However, his life in the Camp Jail made his contact with peasants and peasant leaders easier, and led him to join the kisan movements in the 1930s. He was well known as a leader of the Reora Satyagraha in 1938-39. This is a revised edition of the author's interview with Pandit Jadunandan Sharma, Gaya, April 10-11, 1966. The main part of the book is the author's interview in Hindi with Jadunandan Sharma who had pride in his fruitful and productive days as a C class prisoner at the Patna Camp Jail after the Salt Satyagraha of 1930. Jail life provided him a rare chance to talk to the peasants and peasant leaders. Sharma's elaborate preparation for the rural survey in Gaya district in 1933 secured the trust of Swami Sahajanand in his work as a kisan (peasant) leader. Jadunandan Sharma is well-known as a leader of the kisan satyagraha in a village Reora, Bihar in the late 1930s. The appeal of the peasant women to Jadunandan Sharam in Reora, his talk and exchange with Mrs. Sharma, a co-worker in Shahbajpur satyagraha and his response to the Magistrate Whittaker's unexpected 'radical' proposal in jail will go down in history as the unforgettable scenes. The interview was held at Gaya on the hottest days in April 1966. It was the time when Jadunandan Sharma felt no need of the peasant movement against the government. However here he freely talks about the peasant movement in Bihar in the 1930s in his own words and perception cultivated by his experiences. He also reflects on his underground days in 1940-42, and claims that he already worked for 'Quit India' during these two years before the 'Quit India' movement started in August 1942. He says that he decided it on his own as a kisan. Sho Kuwajima is Professor Emeritus of South Asian Studies, Osaka University of Foreign Studies. He studied at the Indian School of International Studies in 1962-66, and was Senior Fellow at the Indian Council of Social Science Research in 1988-90.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. This is a collection of the revised and enlarged articles published earlier except a few newly added papers. The main issue in this collection is how the people in South Asia responded to the call of 'Power to the People' in the times of the war and the struggle for freedom. While describing the central theme, Quit India movement in India, the author paid heed to the response of the common people who could not participate in the movement or could participate only for a few days. Freedom movement in India during the Second World War was the struggle for life with dignity too, facing the savage military repression and serious food scarcity. Through his review articles, the author tried to show that the history of each area in South Asia in the 1940s and 1950s was interrelated. The reference to Bihar and the people who live there in various parts of the book is, in its own way, an invitation to the Area Studies on many parts of South Asia too. Rahul Sankrityayan saw the history of Japan in the 1930s with his critical eyes in the context of the situation in East Asia where he visited in 1935, and also led the peasant struggle in Amwari, Bihar in 1939. Here he throws light on the memorable scenes in the midst of the Quit India movement at Patna as the witness.…
