This booklet, Indian Home Rule by M. K. Gandhi, presents a dialogue between an Editor and a Reader exploring the concept of Indian self-rule (Swaraj). The discussion critiques modern Western civilization, particularly its machinery, legal and medical professions, and educational systems, arguing they have impoverished India and eroded its moral strength. Gandhi champions traditional Indian civilization, emphasizing self-control (self-rule), passive resistance (soul-force or love-force), and the adoption of Swadeshi (self-sufficiency) as the path to genuine freedom. He rejects violence and mere petitioning, advocating for inner reform and a rejection of harmful aspects of foreign influence to achieve true home rule. The text also addresses Hindu-Muslim unity and includes endorsements of Indian civilization from various Western scholars.
