Summary/Abstract |
Narendra Nath Bhattacharya (1887) and in later years known as Manabendra Nath Roy (M.N. Roy) adorns a remarkable place in the history of Indian philosophy of the twentieth century. He was a versatile scholar, a linguist, a born revolutionary, a subtle theorist, a penetrating intellectual, an uncompromising rationalist and an original thinker. Unlike the other Indian political thinkers of India, Roy has made a clear distinction between philosophy and religion in his thought. Roy's intellectual odyssey took him from militant Hindu nationalism to communism and there from to emerging as a humanist and radical democrat.

Summary/Abstract |
Starting his political career as a nationalist by 1902 or 1903, Manabendra Nath Roy (1887-1954) embraced Marxism by 1917, and after about three decades of Communist activities he gave up Marxism in favour of humanism. This transition from Marxism to humanism is a fascinating story which may be discussed in brief outline not simply as a tribute to his memory on the occasion of his 150th birth anniversary, but also for clarification of our ideas regarding the limitations of Marxism and the way to overcome them.

Summary/Abstract |
Among the modern Indian thinkers Manabendra Nath Roy was more a philosopher than a mass leader. He was, essentially, one of the greatest thinkers of the twentieth century and truly a citizen of the world. His philosophy may be described as a mid-twentieth century version of the Renaissance modified and enriched by the experience of the intervening centuries.

Manendra Nath Roy (1886-1954) and Jayaprakash Narayan (1902-1979), both popularly known as M.N. Roy and J.P., occupy unique positions among the galaxy of political leaders produced by India in modern times.

Summary/Abstract |
The essay aims at analyzing the political behavior of M. N. Roy and Subhas Chandra Bose in the Indian National Congress from 1936-39. M. N. Roy joined the Congress as a Marxist with a view to radicalize the Congress and bring it under a revolutionary leadership. Subhas Chandra Bose as a leader of the left nationalist force in the Congress was also dissatisfied with general Congress policy and moderate way of Gandhian approach to the anti-colonial movement. During this period both of them came close to each other.

Summary/Abstract |
It is customary to associate M.N. Roy with the Comintern years ( 1920-1928) and highlight his achievements as a leading Comintern functionary primarily in the capacity of a key theoretician of the colonial question. Our attention is thereby generally drawn towards his debate with Lenin in 1920 in the Second Congress and the adoption of his Supplementary Theses on the Colonial Question, apart from his speeches on India and the colonial question in the different Congresses and Plena of the Comintern.

Summary/Abstract |
Much before India achieved Independence in 1947, though not widely known, there was an attempt under the leadership of Jatin Mukherjee, M.N. Roy et al in 1915 during the First World War to attain Independence through armed insurrection in cooperation with the Germany. Although the initiative did not fructify, the efforts deserve to be recalled and given due importance in the pages of history. In fact, the incident can be considered as precursor of the later attempt by Subhash Chandra Bose in 1945 under the aegis of the Indian National Army (INA) during the Second World War with the help of Japan.

Summary/Abstract |
The Renaissance, which literally means rebirth, renewal, rediscovery, refers to the period in European civilization spanning the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries that immediately followed the Middle Ages. While popularly understood as a revolution in architecture, painting and sculpture in Europe during this period, the Renaissance was not merely an artistic and literary movement. For the scholars and thinkers of the day, it was a time for the revival of classical literature, learning, wisdom and values.

Summary/Abstract |
What would have been the response of M N Roy to the disintegration of the Soviet Union and collapse of the socialist systems in Europe? Perhaps he could have said that he was long expecting that to happen. Or perhaps he could have felt sorry that a great and truly epoch making project has failed. Perhaps he would have seen in that failure a rejuvenation of the idea of Radical Humanism, which he felt, was a creative evolution of the very Marxist thought. He could have also reflected that had communism incorporated the radical humanist ideas, the tragedy would not have occurred.

Summary/Abstract |
In the present condition of our country, it is gradually felt by the thoughtful citizens of India that we need an alternative meaning of living and achieving the desired objectives of human life. We are fortunate that we have Manabendranath Roy (M.N.Roy), a gifted personality, a philosopher revolutionary, who deeply thought for this 'alternative' sixty five years before anticipating the demoralization of party-politics embedded in the party system and intellectual stagnation what we are facing today.
