Rethinking Democracy is an insightful and reflective monograph on democracy in general and Indian democracy in particular. In this work, Rajni Kothari revisits the core arguments he has laid down in his various writings in the past four decades Politics in India, State Against Democracy, Communalism in India, etc. While revisiting his writings, Kothari reflects, interrogates and even contests some of his earlier formulations on democracy, state and civil society, developing a new paradigm on the basis of his intellectual experience and activist experience. Kothari makes a powerful critique of prevailing democratic theory and practice in a changing global as well as Indian contaxt and concludes that democracy has failed to achieve its objective of human emancipation and survives merely as a dream. However, this disillusionment with democracy does not deter him from searching for an alternative model of a decentralized, participatory and emancipatory democracy.

Renewable Fuels

By: Rajni Kant,Keshav Kant

Renewable fuels, in the present times, have become important to curb emission of greenhouse gases, which are causing damage to the environment and leading to climatic changes. Ideally, their utilization can be a zero carbon operation. Planting suitable trees on all waste lands and agro forestry on a large scale can fulfil the needs of timber, fuel, fruits, etc. All kinds of lignocellulosic biomass can be converted by several methods to useful liquid fuels like alcohols, biodiesel, methane, renewable diesel and renewable gasoline. Hydrogen can be used as a renewable fuel because of its desirable characteristics and properties for its use as a green fuel.

Poverty

Human Consciousness and the Amnesia of Development

By: Rajni Kothari

Poverty is getting worse all over the world - yet there is a strong tendency to brush it under the carpet. The aim of this incisive essay is to convince our generation of the social and ethical necessity to reverse current trends towards immiseration. Rajni Kothari explores the meanings of poverty in all its aspects, social, political and psychological as well as economic, and analyses the role of the state and the market, both nationally and internationally, in deepening poverty. He examines the declining access of the poor to the power structures of society: the phenomenon of disempowerment.
