REL 314. Gandhi and the Other 9/11

3.00
Mahatma Gandhi is unique as a social theorist, a moral and spiritual philosopher, and a social and political activist. He serves as a bridge from post-modern to modern and pre-modern thought. His experience transcends boundaries of culture, geography, religion and politics. In this course students explore the ideas and the story of Gandhi to reflect upon the issues facing the modern world, with an emphasis on the modern nonviolent movement that he launched on 9/11.
