इतिहास में
अरविंद घोष
1872–1950
बंदे मातरम् के संपादक और गरम दल के सिद्धांतकार — अलीपुर बम कांड और 1910 में पॉण्डिचेरी चले जाने तक। 'The Doctrine of Passive Resistance' (1907) ने बहिष्कार को उसकी रणनीति दी; 1909 के उत्तरपाड़ा भाषण — 'सनातन धर्म, वही राष्ट्रवाद है' — ने वह हिंदू-आध्यात्मिक राष्ट्रवाद दिया जिस पर औरों ने इमारत खड़ी की।
बीच से सबसे दूर राष्ट्र पर — बहुसंख्यकवादी की तरफ़।
ये कहाँ खड़े हैं
अरविंद घोष सातों पैमानों पर, एक छोर से दूसरे छोर तक।
रिकॉर्ड, पैमाने दर पैमाने
हर जगह इस आधार पर तय हुई है कि क्या कहा और क्या किया गया — घोषणापत्र, क़ानून, सरकार चलाने का रिकॉर्ड — और उन्हीं सवालों पर परखी गई है जो यह क्विज़ पूछता है।
सबूत का हवाला अंग्रेज़ी में
The Human Cycle (serialised in Arya, 1916-18) reads the 'objective' state that provides for all as a genuine advance in one direction and a mechanising subjection of the individual in another; his own politics was about power, not provision
Swadeshi and boycott were weapons of the 1906-08 programme rather than an economic doctrine, and he later warned that socialism's logical end was the totalitarian state — leaving him with no position on ownership at all
'The Unhindu Spirit of Caste Rigidity' and 'Caste and Democracy' (Bande Mataram, 1907) call hereditary caste a corruption to be dissolved into a democratic distribution of function — abolition by dissolution, with nothing said for or against specific protections
The Uttarpara Speech of 30 May 1909 — 'It is the Sanatan Dharma which for us is nationalism' — and the Bhawani Mandir pamphlet's nation-as-goddess, against his 15 August 1947 message calling Partition 'a temporary expedient' that must go and asking for Hindu-Muslim unity
'The Doctrine of Passive Resistance' (April 1907) makes it a duty to break an unjust law and take the legal consequence; he was prosecuted for sedition over Bande Mataram and spent a year in Alipore jail before his 1909 acquittal — though the same text refuses to make non-violence absolute
The Human Cycle argues for a subjective age in which the individual finds the law within rather than in convention; his Pondicherry ashram kept no caste rules and was led by a European woman — set against its celibacy discipline and Sanatan Dharma as the ground of everything
The Ideal of Human Unity (Arya, 1915-18) and the 1947 message argue for free federation over coercive unity, from a united India up to a world union — the Centre-state question as now argued is simply not one he addressed
