Answer: In the history of nationalism a single individual is often identified with

the making of a nation. Thus, for example, we associate Garibaldi

with the making of Italy, George Washington with the American War

of Independence, and Ho Chi Minh with the struggle to free Vietnam

from colonial rule. In the same manner, Mahatma Gandhi has been

regarded as the ‘Father’ of the Indian nation.

In so far as Gandhiji was the most influential and revered of all the

leaders who participated in the freedom struggle, that characterisation

is not misplaced. However, like Washington or Ho Chi-Minh, Mahatma

Gandhi’s political career was shaped and constrained by the society

in which he lived. For individuals, even great ones, are made by history

even as they make history.

This chapter analyses Gandhiji’s activities in India during the

crucial period 1915-1948. It explores his interactions with different

sections of the Indian society and the popular struggles that he

inspired and led. It introduces the student to the different kinds of

sources that historians use in reconstructing the career of a leader

and of the social movements that he was associated with.
