Nationalism religion, and beyond : writings on politics, society, and culture

Author is better known as Sri Aurobindo

Sri Arabindo is best known as philosopher and yogi, as one of the early leaders of the Indian nationalist movement who also wrote extensively on politics, society, and culture. his contributions to these fields, have not received the attention they deserve. One reason for this is apparent datedness. but the most important of Arabindo's writings on these subjects are as interesting now as when they were written, for they deal with matters of perennial concern- such as on cultural identity, and the place of spirituality in society. this book provides the historical background, and relates Arabindo's social, cultural and political ideas to those of contemporary theorists.
