Vinayak Damodar Savarkar (1883-1947) has been very often in the news in recent years. Latest being the Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh stating that Savarkar wrote mercy petition at the instance of Mahatma Gandhi. This heated up the debate. In the last few years, many hagiographies on him have been published. He was a complex person. In the beginning of his career, he was an anti-British revolutionary who believed in violence, later he surrendered totally to the British colonial masters. He propounded the two-nation theory and coined the word “Hindutva” or “total Hinduness” to ensure Brahmanical supremacy. Over all, Savarkar is praised for his role in the first part of his life while his serving the British and opposing the freedom struggle are being put under the carpet. This booklet by Prof. Ram Puniyani helps understand the different phases of Savarkar’s life and the ideology of Hindutva which he promoted.

Elias Davidsson lives in Germany. He began his career as a computer programmer, a field in which he worked for 22 years. The deadly economic sanctions imposed on Iraq in the 1990s led Davidsson to examine the legality of such measures under international and human rights laws. His research was published in several law journals. From 2002 onwards, he engaged himself in the study of 9/11 and of other terrorist operations. His book, “Hijacking America’s Mind on 9/11,” was published in the US in 2013. Another book, dealing more generally with covert state operations, is scheduled to be released in Germany in this year.
