Summary: Professor Daya Krishna has over the last four decades of this century, written extensively on the relations between logic and empirical reality, the nature of philosophy and the art of philosophizing, the problem of freedom and its relation to values, analysed issues in social and political philosophy, and put forward a new counter- Perspective on Indian philosopher. In this volume, his ideas and writings are subjected to close critical scrutiny by some of the foremost philosophers of India, such as J. N. Mohanty, D. P. Chattopadhyaya, Sibajiban Bhattacharyya, P. K. Sen, K. J. Shah. The detailed reply by Professor Daya Krishna to each of them turns the volume into a philosophical debate on these issues in contemporary India.

-
Summary: Philosophy as Samvada and Svaraj discusses Daya Krishna and Ramchandra Gandhi’s respective intellectual contributions and speculates how one might take forward the work of the two persons, who were among the most brilliant minds of our times.Both Daya Krishna and Ramchandra Gandhi emphasized freedom and autonomy of thought and upheld the importance of Samvada, somewhat inadequate in its English translation as dialogue. Moreover, both of them were philosophers concerned with how philosophy might seek its Svaraj, free from the orientalist hold of the religious, the colonial crippling of indigenous languages and institutions, and the structures and categories of un-freedom that continue to haunt inhabitants of West and non-West. Philosophy must involve Samvada — an open dialogue and intimate encounter between self and other. Both philosophers experimented with these concepts and were enormously creative.This book is a testament not only to the core values of philosophy but also to how these values can be carried forward by new weaves of tradition and modernity.
