Background : 'The Indian Modern & Nehru' Lecture Series.
to mark Jawaharlal Nehru’s 125th birth anniversary and 50th death anniversary

During the years of the national movement, Jawaharlal Nehru developed a complete world-view in opposition to imperialism that was sui generis, derived from his understanding of imperialism and rooted in his experience of the anti-imperialist struggle. It was clear to him that a country’s struggle against imperialism could succeed only if its colonized people created for themselves a secular democratic nation-state, an economy characterized by self-reliance, egalitarianism and national control over resources, and a foreign policy characterized by independence and close cooperation with other oppressed people.
