Changing Nationalism and Understanding Dr. Ambedkar's Importance for National Integration in Present India

Authors(1) :-Rajan Kumar

Integration is a constellation of different values, idioms, norms, and a network of social and moral institutions. At the individual level, integration may imply the development of individual perceptions, attitudes and orientations so as to make him aware of the over arching national identity and national goals. Individual at this level, as a result of processes of socialization, would acquire a political culture which would enable him to opt for national loyalities as and when such a loyality /is in conflict with his loyality to caste, language, religion and other identities at different levels. It also involves the social and psychological aspects of integration. The unity and integrity is considered as the greatest strength of any country. If a country is not nationally integrated and the people residing there are only concerned in their own interests, then that country can never be happy and neither can progress.
