To remain leader of ‘free world’, America must demonstrate commitment to values of its own Constitution

At the time of writing this column, the final and official result of the race to the White House is not yet known. The race, it seems, is headed for a photo finish. The numbers may be close but the consequences would be wide apart — for the people of the United States and people living in plural democracies threatened by majoritarianism.

Free speech is a basic right that empowers marginalised lives

The horrific beheading of the French teacher, Samuel Paty, has once again laid bare the fault lines of free speech. Tabish Khair‘s piece (‗Lost in Paris‘, IE, October 30) represents one such crack. Khair‘s piece is a crying appeal against those who kill in the name of their gods and ideas, to not kill. Do not kill or afflict injury to bodies that bear contrarian ideas, he seems to be saying. And he is right — how can he not be?

To disparage India’s parliamentary democracy, some are imagining its decline

Over the past few years, it has become a fad within a cocooned elite ecosystem to predict or claim that India and its institutions are declining. People within this ecosystem have become so obsessed with wanting to see India decline that, now, they see it happening irrespective of the facts on the ground. If facts don’t suit their perceptions, they can always manufacture narratives to suit their pre-conceived notions and torture isolated bits of information to say what they want.

Socialism has been a handy weapon in successfully fighting COVID-19 pandemic

A plea has been filed before the Supreme Court, seeking to remove the words ―socialist‖ and ―secular‖ from the Preamble of the Constitution. But despite a persistent erosion over the last couple of decades, both principles were central to the type of republic our political forefathers had imagined. With the embrace of neoliberal policies in the Nineties, socialism was pushed aside. With the ongoing pandemic, however, socialism has become relevant not only for India but also the world. As the world grapples to find a vaccine for COVID-19, a closer inspection of the backwash of the pandemic reveals that socialist ideals have turned out to be a life-saver. This needs further corroboration and evaluation

Going glocal in a smarter way

Gauging the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is still an evolving exercise, but without a doubt, its fallout has been negative and widespread across the globe. Challenges arose in the form of export prohibitions and restrictions, which some countries introduced to mitigate critical shortages of medicines and equipment. In April, the WTO expressed a deep concern over this unsettling trend given that all countries would depend on global supply chains to source critical products to meet the public health challenge. The demand for medical products as well as the disruptions to international transport were also at their peak at the time.

Inclusion of the word fraternity in Preamble is of historic importance and contemporary relevance

Two months ago, Harsh Mander wrote in The India Forum of the significance of the word ―fraternity‖ in our Constitution’s Preamble. Reading the article nudged me to explore the story behind that word’s inclusion.
Scholars have long noted a few milestones in the history of India’s constitution-making. A major one was the 1931 ―Fundamental Rights‖ resolution of the Indian National Congress. Meeting in Karachi under the presidentship of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the Congress resolved that ―any [future] constitution should include fundamental rights of the people such as freedom of association and combination, freedom of speech and press, freedom of conscience and the free profession and practice of religion‖.
