- Book Synopsis
- The book presents the notion of unity in diversity in the context of globalization and multiculturalism. Philosophically speaking, the concepts of unity and diversity have been contested in classical and modern theories; for instance, Plato's idea of harmony and goodness, Aristotle's phronesis or practical wisdom (teleology), Kant's categorical imperative (deontology), and Mill's utilitarianism (consequentialism) on the one hand and purusarthas divided into abhyudaya and nihsreyas, etc. on the other. These theories give rise to the concept of diversity but jointly somehow they emerge as unity in diversity.
