Book excerpt: This study is an endeavour to enquire into the nature and efficacy of liberal primacies and the extent to which Gandhi imbibed them. Gandhi does not emerge as a liberal in the parlance of well stirred ideaological congruence. And yet he remains the most outstanding exponent and activist of the liberal spiirt. He built upon this foundation, as innovative superstructure. It is not always possible to expect an activist of the national movement to scrupulously adhere a specific ideology. Gandhi renovated the liberal thinking and sought to transform the idiom and primacies of Philosophy of nationalism and creative protest.
