Abstract
Este trabajo analiza el proceso de construcción del movimiento
nacional indio y la subsiguiente creación en 1947 de un Estado independiente
del Imperio británico. En particular, el análisis se centra en los procesos
y actores principales, Jawaharlal Nehru y Mohandas Gandhi, que han
permitido a la India establecerse como una democracia estable e inclusiva
a pesar de su alta heterogeneidad cultural, el trauma de la Partición con
Pakistán y la continua inestabilidad regional. Utilizando la teoría contractualista
rousseauniana como marco teórico, el artículo utiliza los conceptos de
legalidad y legitimidad como base para el análisis.
This paper analyses the process of construction of the Indian national movement and the subsequent creation in 1947 of an independent state from the British Empire. In particular, the analysis focuses on the processes and principal actors, Jawaharlal Nehru and Mohandas Gandhi, which have allowed India to establish itself as a stable and inclusive democracy, despite its high cultural heterogeneity, the trauma of Partition with Pakistan and the ongoing regional instability. Using Rousseau’s contractualism as the theoretical framework, the article uses the concepts of legality and legitimacy as the basis for its analysis.
