Abstract
This paper examines the activities of India's Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru in establishing India's economy, politics and development following the independence from British rule. Nehru's involvement transformed India into a civilized and powerful republic. The author describes Nehru's concept of Indianness in which he wanted to avoid a copy of European nationalism. The paper relates that, although Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru were bound together through their common quest for the truth, Gandhi was an eccentric, living in poverty and promoting non-violence and religion, while Nehru was more of a noble and a socialist person. The author contrasts their beliefs.
From the Paper
"An issue posed by the unification of India had been the Indian multiculturalism and the lack of cooperation between these specific cultural entities. Therefore, English appeared to be the only language through which the South and the North were able to communicate. This is why there was a need for a national point of reference. Thus, the Indian concept of an identity was a state and an organization that could implement a legal identity. Nehru's opinion was that the country's history could not be cleaned and invoked an acceptation of its past and its advantages, encouraging modernism and the need of unity.

From the Paper
"When Jawaharlal Nehru came to power as prime minister of the newly independent India in 1947, he inherited not only a country in flux, but a world undergoing great turmoil and change. After nearly 30 years of working alongside the iconic Mohandas Gandhi to procure independence from the British, Nehru was tasked with building a government, trying to preserve national unity and reconstructing a tattered Indian economy. All around him, the post-World War II world was changing and the Cold War heating up, with world super powers competing for the fragile new government's allegiance."

Abstract
This paper introduces, discusses, and analyzes the life of Mahatma Gandhi. Specifically, it focuses on Gandhi's perception of his religion and civilization and how these perceptions, in turn, led to his triumph over the British Empire and later to the independence of India. It also takes into account significant figures, such as Nehru and Jinnah, when analyzing certain aspects of Gandhi's decisions.
From the Paper
"Mahatma (Mohandas Karamchand) Gandhi was born on October 2, 1869. His parents were well to do by Indian standards, and he was the last of four children. At the time, India was split between her Hindu past, and a distinctly English future. English was the official language of the country, and English innovations such as railroads were beginning to criss-cross the country. The Gandhi family was non-conformist, and spoke out against English oppression, so Gandhi's desire for peaceful revolution may have begun when he was very young. The family was also very religious, and worshipped Vishnu through the religion Vaishnava. Gandhi began all his major activities with a Hindu hymn to Vaishnava (Muzumdar 6-7). In the Indian tradition, Gandhi was married at the age of thirteen to Kasturbi, another thirteen-year-old. They had four children in twelve years, before Gandhi took a vow of sexual abstinence."
