| Summary, etc. | Since the beginning of the twenty-first century Christianity is facing an increasingly malicious campaign negating its glorious contribution to the Indian subcontinent. Given today’s widespread negative stereotyping and falsely generated misunderstanding of Christians and Christianity, the publication of this book is vital to help repair the wrong that is being perpetuated and restore the historical truth which is being distorted.<br/>Today India has comparative advantages in the process of globalization. With one of the largest English-speaking populations, India is ranked sixth in publishing books and supplies large manpower to IT and medical services around the globe. But how has this happened? What are the factors leading to this?<br/>In this volume “Christianity’s Contribution in the Shaping of Modern India” author duo – Joseph A. Gathia and Sanjay V. Gathia – examine and seek to give the readers a better understanding of how India got to where is it as a modern nation today.<br/>This book analyses the many ways in which Christianity penetrated and introduced then-radical notions and how early Christianity was an incubator for “modern India” that affected everything from governance to law, to education, languages, philosophy, medicine, science, religious customs, social services, multilingual publishing and the freedom struggle. Christian missionaries creatively reflected and constructed an inclusive discourse very close to what we call the modern nation building.<br/>Grounded in solid research and written in a popular style, this book presents historical analyses of the nature of the Christian contribution of aspirations (visions, hope) of a new society and motivation (inspiration, empowerment) and how it put them into effect. This book can therefore act as a focusing lense and a resource for all who work to promote a multi-cultural society, whether religious gurus, policy makers, educators, scholars, historians or thoughtful citizens in order that the field of coexistence be expanded and legitimized. |
