His life and thought has had an enormous impact on the Indian nation, and he continues to be widely revered - known before and after his death by assassination as Mahatma, the Great Soul. Gandhi's life and thought have been immensely influential, and his strategy of non-violent opposition to unjust laws forms the core of contemporary protest movements Bhikhu Parekh is a leading authority on Gandhi and on Indian politics Concentrates on Gandhi's role as a thinker, and the influence of his ideas — in particular his spiritual view of politics, and his theories of oppression, non-violent action, and active citizenship
