Karuna Mantena’s project reconsiders Gandhi’s political thought from the standpoint of a realist theory of political means. Though Gandhi is often taken to be the exemplary figure of a form of conviction politics, Mantena will explore how Gandhi’s politics were connected to a contextual and consequentialist theory of political violence.
