The Naxalite Movement in India
The Naxilite movement is one of the important components in the political spectrum in India. At one stage, the 'spring thunder' caused tremors in practically all the states of the Union and posed a serious challenge even to the democratic structure. The Idealists saw in it the beginning of a new world, a new socio-economic order. But soon sordid politics took over. The movement, however continues to have a large support base because of the intellectual appeal of its ideology. It has survived more than a quarter century of onslaught by the security forces - without any external support, unlike the Punjab terrorism and Kashmir militancy. The Movement has developed an inherent strength. The present book is the only one of its kind. It covers all the important developments from the inception of the Movement in 1967 to the present day in historical sweep.

Since then `Naxalite' and `Naxalism' have become synonymous in India with communist revolutionary terrorism. The Naxalite movement itself, and most specifically its ideology, has neverbefore been as closely and comprehensively studied as in the present volume.

From these cases, there emerge three compelling reasons for Maoism's existence and persistence in South Asia it employs tactically effective methods; it springs from political organisations that are prone to extremist schisms; and it targets populations that have not tasted the fruits of political and economic development. Effectively dealing with Maoist insurrections in these countries will necessitate the implementation of policies that bring real change to the peasants and rural poor. Policy makers must also be open to new and peaceful ways to entice Maoists to contribute to positive change. Until such policies are implemented, and implemented with speed, the prospect of Maoist violence will continue." -- BOOK JACKET.
From Popular Movements to Rebellion
From Popular Movements to Rebellion: The Naxalite Decade argues that without an understanding of the popular sources of the rebellion of that time, the age of the Naxalite revolt will remain beyond our understanding. Many of the chapters of the book bring out for the first time unknown peasant heroes and heroines of that era, analyses the nature of the urban revolt, and shows how the urban revolt of that time anticipated street protests and occupy movements that were to shake the world forty-fifty years later. This is a moving and poignant book. Some of the essays are deeply reflective about why the movement failed and was at the end alienated. Ranabir Samaddar says that, the Naxalite Moveme...
