Condition remarks:

A landmark work of political journalism and social analysis, The Crisis of India presents a searing examination of the enormous challenges confronting the Indian subcontinent in the years following independence. Ronald Segal chronicles the deep-rooted tensions of poverty, overpopulation, caste discrimination, and political instability that threatened to destabilise the world's largest democracy. Written with urgency and moral conviction, the work argues that India's crisis was not merely a regional concern but a litmus test for democracy and development on a global scale. Segal details the structural inequalities and human costs of rapid modernisation with a sharp, unflinching eye, making this an essential document of mid-twentieth-century political thought.
