In a special episode for Press Freedom Day, Newslaundry's Abhinandan Sekhri, Raman Kirpal, Manisha Pande and Jayashree Arunachalam, are joined by historian and author Ramachandra Guha. The panel begins with a discussion on the history of press freedom in India. Ram reflects on the similarities and differences between 1975's Emergency and today. “The Modi regime has gone farther than Indira's regime by weaponising agencies in a much more systematic and planned way.” Commenting on the ‘downfall' of mainstream media, Manisha adds, “The sheer anti-people quality of the media, painting minorities as threats, is relentless and unprecedented.”The panel discusses the history of violence in Kashmir and the attacks on Kashmiris across India after the Pahalgam terror attack. “One word from Modi and it would have stopped,” says Ram. Jayashree notes, “People are very happy to believe the worst qualities about Muslims and Kashmiris right now, and the media is feeding into it.”This and a lot more.

Ramachandra Guha, "Speaking with Nature: The Origins of Indian Environmentalism" (Yale UP, 2024)

From one of the world's leading historians comes the first substantial study of environmentalism set in any country outside the Euro-American world. By the canons of orthodox social science, countries like India are not supposed to have an environmental consciousness. They are, as it were, “too poor to be green.” In Speaking with Nature: The Origins of Indian Environmentalism (Yale UP, 2024), Ramachandra Guha challenges this narrative by revealing a virtually unknown prehistory of the global movement set far outside Europe or America. Long before the publication of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring and well before climate change, ten remarkable individuals wrote with deep insight about the dangers of environmental abuse from within an Indian context.  In strikingly contemporary language, Rabindranath Tagore, Radhakamal Mukerjee, J. C. Kumarappa, Patrick Geddes, Albert and Gabrielle Howard, Mira, Verrier Elwin, K. M. Munshi, and M. Krishnan wrote about the forest and the wild, soil and water, urbanization and industrialization. Positing the idea of what Guha calls “livelihood environmentalism” in contrast to the “full-stomach environmentalism” of the affluent world, these writers, activists, and scientists played a pioneering role in shaping global conversations about humanity's relationship with nature. Spanning more than a century of Indian history, and decidedly transnational in reference, this book offers rich resources for considering the threat of climate change today. About the Author: Ramachandra Guha is the author of many books, including India After Gandhi: The History of the World's Largest Democracy and Gandhi: The Years That Changed the World, 1914–1948. Guha's awards include the Leopold-Hidy Prize of the American Society of Environmental History, the Elizabeth Longford Prize for Historical Biography, and the Fukuoka Prize for contributions to Asian studies. He lives in Bangalore. About the Host: Stuti Roy has recently graduated with an MPhil in Modern South Asian Studies at the University of Oxford.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Doğayla Konuşmak adlı kitabında Ramachandra Guha, insanın doğal dünyayla olan ilişkisinin geçmişi, bugünü ve olası geleceğini ele alıyor. Hindistan gibi ülkelerin “Yeşil olmak için çok fakir" olduğu söylenir. Bu düşünce tarzına ilk karşı çıkanlardan biri Mahatma Gandhi'ydi. 1928'de Gandhi, Birleşik Krallığın uyguladığı ekonomik emperyalizmin bugün dünyayı zincirlediği ve 300 milyonluk Hindistan'ın benzer bir ekonomik sömürüye girişirse, dünyayı çekirge istilasına uğramışçasına çıplak bırakacağı konusunda uyarmıştı. Gandhi, sıklıkla modern karşıtı olarak karikatürize edildi. Hint çevreciler için "gelişim karşıtı" algısı yaratıldı. Aslında Gandhi'nin karşı çıktığı şey sanayileşme değildi. Gandhi, Hindistan'ın kitlesel yoksulluk nedeniyle çirkinleştiğini fark etti. Yoksulluk, cehalet ve sağlıksızlığa çare olacak ekonomik ve teknolojik uygulamalara karşı olmayıp aksine memnuniyetle karşıladığı diğer yazı ve faaliyetlerinden anlaşılıyordu. Dünyanın her yerinde, hükümetler ve politikacılar “gelişme” ile “çevre” arasında yanlış bir tercihi teşvik ediyor. Çevreye dikkat etmenin gelişmeyi tehlikeye attığını iddia ediyorlar. Gerçekte, kırılgan ekolojilere sahip yoğun nüfuslu ülkelerin doğayı ve doğal kaynakları nasıl kullandıkları konusunda daha da sorumlu olmaları gerekiyor. Katı davranan sosyal bilimin kurallarına göre, Hindistan gibi ülkelerin bir çevre bilincine sahip olması beklenmiyor. Adeta 'yeşil olmak için çok fakirler'. Oysa 1973 baharında, Himalaya'da Chipko olarak bilinen popüler bir köylü hareketi gerçekleşti. ‘Dolu mideli elitist çevreciliği'nin aksine ‘geçim çevreciliği' yaşandı. Köylüler ticari ormancılar tarafından ağaçların kesilmesini engellemek için 'geçim çevreciliğini' harekete geçmişti. Çoğu okuma yazma bile bilmiyordu ancak, liderleri gayet vizyoner ve açık sözlüydüler. Endüstriyel ormancılık, toprak erozyonu, heyelanlar ve seller arasındaki doğrudan bağlantıyı gösteren makaleler ve risaleler yazdılar. Chipko hareketi sayesinde kurumlarda ve kanunlarda değişiklikler oldu. Yazarın amacı, çağdaş Hint çevreciliğine güvenilir bir entelektüel soyağacı sağlamak. Geçmişten gizli veya az bilinen, farklı şekillerde günümüzün endişelerini öngörmüş sesleri kurtarmak…

By the canons of orthodox social science, countries like India are not supposed to have an environmental consciousness. They are, as it were, “too poor to be green.” In his new book, Speaking with Nature, Ramachandra Guha challenges this narrative by revealing a virtually unknown prehistory of the global movement set far outside Europe or America. Long before the publication of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring and well before climate change, ten remarkable individuals wrote with deep insight about the dangers of environmental abuse from within an Indian context. In strikingly contemporary language, Rabindranath Tagore, Radhakamal Mukerjee, J. C. Kumarappa, Patrick Geddes, Albert and Gabrielle Howard, Mira, Verrier Elwin, K. M. Munshi, and M. Krishnan wrote about the forest and the wild, soil and water, urbanisation and industrialisation. Positing the idea of what Guha calls “livelihood environmentalism” in contrast to the “full stomach environmentalism” of the affluent world, these writers, activists, and scientists played a pioneering role in shaping global conversations about humanity's relationship with nature. Spanning more than a century of Indian history, and decidedly transnational in reference, this book offers rich resources for considering the threat of climate change today. In this episode of BIC Talks, Ramchandra Guha is in conversation with Harini Nagendra. This is an excerpt from a conversation that took place in the BIC premises in September 2024.

Curious about India's unique relationship with the environment and the often-overlooked heroes who shaped it?In this episode of Books and Beyond, Michelle and Tara welcome celebrated historian Dr. Ramachandra Guha, and talk about his recent book Speaking with Nature. Known for his extensive work on Gandhi, Dr. Guha now uncovers the lives of Indian environmentalists who, since the 19th century, championed sustainable ways of living in harmony with nature. From literary icon Rabindranath Tagore to the indomitable Meera Ben, each figure in Dr. Guha's latest book highlights a different angle of ‘livelihood environmentalism', an approach where nature conservation goes hand in hand with social justice.Dr. Guha shares his insights on how scholars, editors, librarians, and archivists play crucial roles, describing how a network of trusted colleagues, editors like Rukun Advani, and even archivists shape each book. He also sheds light on the irreplaceable value of archives, libraries, and the often uncelebrated archivists who preserve history. From finding serendipitous treasures to uncovering forgotten letters and manuscripts, archival research is, as he puts it, “an addiction,” offering writers a tactile connection to the past.Tune in as Dr. Guha takes us through forests, rivers, and the lives of those who spoke with nature, revealing the unique and timeless spirit of India's environmental ethos. ‘Books and Beyond with Bound' is the podcast where Tara Khandelwal and Michelle D'costa uncover how their books reflect the realities of our lives and society today.

Many of you may know him through his writings, like Environmentalism, that I first had the pleasure of reading for a university assignment several years ago, India after Gandhi, The Unquiet Woods, Makers of Modern India and Savaging the Civilized. Dr Guha is now out with his most recent book - with poingnantly writing that you'd want to relish while hanging onto the important historical and philosophical insights it provides. It's called Speaking with Nature - a comprehensive volume that walks us through the most important personalities in India's global history of environmentalism, highlighting the immense diversity of thought, practice and environmental literacy that our country has always housed.

In this video I expound upon some insights and quotes from the book Gandhi before India by Ramachandra Guha from Chapter 2: Among the Vegetarians. I discuss why Gandhi carried the ethos of India, was so radical even in his twenties, and was such a radically intelligent social reformer as seen through his early community organizing, job as lawyer, and being a dedicated student of principles of world religion and compassion in London, South Africa, and subsequently India.

My guest today is a titan of Indian history, Ramachandra Guha.He is known for his monumental works on Gandhi and Indian history, but today we're taking a detour into the realm of literature.We'll be diving into his latest book, "The Cooking Of Books," a slice-of-life memoir that offers a poignant glimpse into his relationship with his first editor, Rukun Advani. It also offers us a look into Ram's literary side and the bonds that have shaped his writing journey.My first encounter with Ram Guha's writing—and I have probably read every book he has written, other than his books on cricket—was what could have been the start of his own intellectual odyssey, "Savaging the Civilized". I was carrying a freshly purchased copy of it into our favourite cafe in Bangalore, Koshy's, and Ram jabbed approvingly at it.That book captures him, beyond his geographical roots and into a profound intellectual depth—a passion for colonial critiques, insightful biographies, and an unwavering commitment to social justice. It is refreshing not to have to interview Ram Guha about Gandhi, or any other history, sociology or politics but rather about his prodigious output— in books, columns in newspapers and publications—and what must constitute a lifetime of learning.And it begs the question: what drives him as a historian? Is it the solitary pursuit of knowledge, the quiet contemplation he once described as "staring out of the window with a blank piece of paper in front of him"?This ethic is wonderfully captured in his latest book, "The Cooking Of Books". The title hints at the profound collaboration in editing a manuscript, a process he celebrates through his long-standing association with Rukun Advani.And now to the conversation.ABOUT RAMACHANDRA GUHARamachandra Guha is a distinguished historian and author of several acclaimed books, including "India After Gandhi" and "The Unquiet Woods." He has received numerous awards, including the Leopold-Hidy Prize and the Fukuoka Prize for contributions to Asian culture. Currently a Distinguished University Professor at Krea University, Guha's intellectual breadth spans environmental history, biographies, and socio-political commentary.Buy The Cooking of Books: A Literary Memoir here: https://amzn.to/42N3afAWHAT'S THAT WORD?!Co-host Pranati "Pea" Madhav joins Ramjee Chandran in the fun etymology segment, "WHAT'S THAT WORD?!" where they discuss the word “HISTORY”.CONTACT USReach us by mail: theliterarycity@explocity.com or simply, tlc@explocity..comOr here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theliterarycityOr here: https://www.instagram.com/explocityblr/

It is not often that an author and his editor strike up a relationship that survives forty years of epistolary exchanges and intellectual sparring. The strangely enduring and occasionally fractious friendship that developed between the famously outspoken historian Ramachandra Guha and his reticent editor Rukun Advani is the subject of his new literary memoir. It started in Delhi in the early 1980s, when Guha was an unpublished PhD scholar, and Advani a greenhorn editor with the Oxford University Press. It blossomed through the 1990s, when Guha grew into a pioneering historian of the environment and of cricket, while also writing his biography of Verrier Elwin. Over these years, Advani was Guha's most constant confidant, his most reliable reader. He encouraged him to craft and refine the literary style for which Guha became internationally known. Four decades later, though he no longer publishes his books, Advani remains Guha's most trusted literary adviser. Yet they also disagree ferociously on politics, human nature, and the nature of their commitment to India. They usually make up – because it  just wouldn't do to allow such an odd relationship to die. In this episode of BIC Talks, built around letters and emails between an outgoing and occasionally combative scholar and a reclusive editor prone to private outbursts of savage sarcasm, Ramachandra Guha discusses his new book, The Cooking of Books: A Literary Memoir.

Ramachandra Guha's work forms the subject of T.N. Sudarshan and Divya Reddy's study in the book 'Ten Heads of Ravana.' Guha, known for his elaborations on “Nehru, Gandhi, cricket history, environment, politics and economics” is the recipient of the Padma Bhushan in 2009, India's third-highest civilian award. Analyzing Guha's work, the authors deconstruct several major themes, such as Gandhi's relationship with Hinduism, and comparison of Nehru with Subhash Chandra Bose and Sardar Patel.

Amitav Ghosh's new book, Smoke and Ashes: A Writer's Journey Through Opium's Hidden Histories is the story of how, under the aegis of the British Empire, India became the world's largest producer of opium. It also traces the transformative impact that the opium trade had on India, China, Britain and the United States, with profound long-term consequences for the birth of the modern world, and of contemporary globalism. Many of the world's  biggest corporations got their start in the colonial opium trade. But the opium economy also had significant effects influencing migration and settlement patterns, and touching upon millions of lives, including those of his own forefathers. Smoke and Ashes tells the story of how this common and deceptively humble plant has shaped the modern world, and the key part it is now playing in the unmaking of that world. It is at once a travelogue, a memoir and an excursion into history, both economic and cultural. In this episode of BIC Talks, the author Amitav Ghosh, speaks about the making and execution of his exciting book and, engages in a conversation with Ramachandra Guha, which took place in the BIC premises in July 23 2023.

They suggest that we are attuned to what is going on around us, inside us, and with others, and respond in an agile and an appropriate manner. GUEST Between stimulus and response there is a space.

This quote is attributed to Viktor Emil Frankl, an Austrian neurologist, psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor, devoted his life to studying, understanding and promoting “meaning.”  Carol Kaufman and David Noble give us practical tools that we can use to make the ‘space' count.  Carol and David have authored Real-Time Leadership - Find Your Winning Moves When the Stakes Are High.

Guha's India After Gandhi broke this mold and, in so doing, helped to define what a generation of students, scholars, and readers understands of India in the decades after independence.This year, Picador has published the third edition of India After Gandhi, which brings the book's narrative up to the present day with a new chapter on the post-2016 Modi era.To talk about his landmark book—and some of the themes that it covers—Ram Guha joins Milan on the podcast this week. The two discuss Gandhi's legacy after 75 years of independence, the inspiration behind India After Gandhi, and the transformation of Indian democracy in the past decade. Plus, the two discuss the themes, events, and people from India's history that are crying out for greater evaluation. Episode notes:Ramachandra Guha, “India against Gandhi — a legacy rewritten,” Financial Times, January 27, 2023.Ritika Chopra, “Purged from NCERT Textbooks: Hindu extremists' dislike for Gandhi, RSS ban after assassination,” Indian Express, April 8, 2023.Ramachandra Guha, “The Cult of Modi,” Foreign Policy, November 4, 2022.

NUGGET CONTEXT Stephen speaks about some elements to look out for before extending trust to somebody. He speaks about three things in this context 1) Job to be done 2) Risks and stakes involved 3) Credibility of the person on the other side GUEST Stephen M. R. Covey is an American writer and public speaker and the author of the books: The SPEED of Trust, Smart Trust, and Trust & Inspire: How Truly Great Leaders Unleash the Greatness in Others. He is the co-founder and CEO of a company called CoveyLink Worldwide and former President and CEO of Covey Leadership Center. He happens to be the son of Stephen Covey, the author of the pathbreaking book - 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.  In our conversation, we spoke about how Stephen broke away from his father's shadows and created an identity for himself over time as a thought leader by building credibility on the business front. We spoke at length about his recent book - Trust and Inspire. I loved his distinction around being Trust and Inspire in Paradigm but Command and Control in the moment. He also speaks about “Enlightened Command and Control” which gives people a false sense of having evolved their leadership style. Highly relevant piece of work in this world of complexity and possibility.  Published in April 2023. HOST Deepak is a Leadership Advisor and an Executive Coach.
