Description
Economics of Khadi presents Mahatma Gandhi’s visionary perspective on the economic significance of handspun and handwoven cloth in India’s development. Published by Gyan Publishing House, this hardcover edition delves into Gandhi’s belief that khadi production represents more than textile manufacturing—it embodies principles of self-reliance, dignity of labor, and decentralized economics.
Gandhi argues that khadi production can address poverty, unemployment, and economic inequality by empowering rural communities and villages. The work examines how cottage industries and traditional crafts contribute to sustainable economic growth while preserving cultural heritage. Through detailed analysis, Gandhi demonstrates how khadi serves as a vehicle for political independence alongside economic independence.
This essential text remains relevant today, offering insights into sustainable development, fair trade, and ethical economics. It appeals to scholars of Indian history, economists interested in alternative economic models, and readers seeking to understand Gandhi’s multifaceted contributions to nation-building and social welfare.
