Question : 42 [SSC SO 2006]
Who is the author of the book Argumentative Indian ?
a) Vikram Seth
b) Amartya Sen
c) V. S. Naipaul
d) Shashi Tharoor
Answer »Answer: (b)
The Argumentative Indian is a book written by Nobel Prize-winning Indian economist Amartya Sen. It is a collection of essays that discuss India’s history and identity, focusing on the traditions of public debate and intellectual pluralism. Martha Nussbaum says the book “demonstrates the importance of public debate in Indian traditions generally.”
The Argumentative Indian has brought together a selection of writings from Sen that outline the need to understand contemporary India in the light of its long argumentative tradition.
The understanding and use of this argumentative tradition are critically important, Sen argues, for the success of India’s democracy, the defence of its secular politics, the removal of inequalities related to class, caste, gender and community, and the pursuit of sub-continental peace.
