Título :	From Gandhi to Deendayal: Contradictions of conservative Hindu tendencies in Indian environmental thinking
Palabras clave :	Sociología;India;Hinduism;Traditionalism;Environmentalism;Hindu nationalism
Editorial :	Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul
Descripción :	"This article examines the traditionalist and conservative trends in the environmental thinking in India, especially in the works of M. K. Gandhi and Deendayal Upadhyay. Special attention is paid to the latter's concept of integral humanism, which has recently become a widely discussed idea in the Indian public discourse. Exploring their ideological bases, Gandhian spiritual radicalism and Deendayal's integral humanism are placed into the broader trend of the Indian nationalist and environmentalist thinking, showing the possible convergence of ecology and social conservatism. Analyzing the implications of the authoritarian and non-egalitarian tendencies in the society, it shows how the Indian environmentalist movements drawing on Brahminical traditions and Gandhian thinking become prone to be hijacked by the Hindu nationalism."
