The revival of interest in Gandhi in recent months is phenomenal. This revival centres on Gandhian technique of conflict resolution which is not only unique in history, but is also becoming very popular these days. Be it the negotiation skills taught in management courses or the stress management in psychological therapies or the operational aspect of NGOs, Gandhian techniques are being increasingly introduced. All these neo-applications of Gandhian theory are rooted in his original and seminal contribution to the theory and proactive of protest, i.e., Satyagraha. After evaluating various theories of protest, this book seeks to examine and analyze the evolution of Satyagraha from its origin in South Africa its various uses by Gandhi in India. It is in this context that the Satyagraha struggles in India like the Champaran, Khera, Ahmedabad, Rowlatt, Non-Cooperation, Bardoli, Civil Disobedience, Vykom and Quit India have been examined.
