India's path of development ; Marxist approach - Bombay Popular Prakashan 1984 - 258p

In this volume he critically examines from revolutionary Marxist point of view, those currents of Marxist thought and scholarship which are pursued by traditional Communist parties and their fellow travelers in the academic field. He suggests that the Marxist scholarship erroneously attempts to analyses the changes taking place in India from the strategic perspective of 'Two Stages Theory of Revolution' and overwhelmingly accept 'peaceful, parliamentary road to Socialism'. While conceding that these scholarly endeavors generate valuable and significant empirical material in terms of changing class configurations in specific regions, he states that they overlook or bypass many vital perspectives and elements which are indispensable for a proper Marxian comprehension of these developments.

The present volume attempts to urge the scholars and activists to recognize that a correct strategy and tactic for socialist transformation can be evolved only if the basic truth underlying India's path of development is acknowledged.
