Democracy Indian Style focuses on the Indian factors underlying its successful democracy by describing and analyzing the life of Subhas Chandra Bose, who competed with Nehru for the role of Gandhi`s heir, and his impact on Indian before and after Independence. The book is balanced between chapters that explain Bose`s life and career and those that describe and analyze the Indian political system. It explains India`s stable democracy as a mixture of British and American patterns-Westminster parliamentary rule plus federalism-and a specific set of power - sharing arrangements among religious, linguistic groups, and castes. India fulfills all the criteria the traditional understanding of pluralistic democracy implies. Basic freedoms are guaranteed, despite the temptation during Indira Gandhi`s emergency rule to follow the path of authoritarian development. Precisely because India, after Pakistan`s separation, did not become Hindustan but stayed on track as a secular.
