This Course is prepared, keeping in mind the young scholars’ interest in
understanding the true spirit of the political debates happening around them. Quite
often, the categories of political thought, developed by western scholars of politics
seem to create conceptual difficulty to an Indian mind. This course shall attempt to
fix this deficiency by following narration of Indian Political thought and thinkers
from the ancient period to contemporary times. Wherever possible, there shall be a
discussion on the political and historical scenario in which such thoughts developed
and maintained influence over the society. The course also aligns with the syllabus
of the Political Science Paper for UPSC mains examination.
