India's Fault Lines.
Students may experience varying amounts of
time for this resource to load, depending on the speed of their internet
connection. This video is 1 hour, 16 minutes, and 55 seconds in length.
Students may begin watching at the 4:00 minute mark, and stop watching at the
38:20 mark.
Dr. Guha is a respected historian and
writer based in Bangalore. Students should pay particular attention to Dr.
Guha’s enumeration of fault lines and his argument about whether India should
be a superpower.
What are the top three Indian fault lines,
as discussed in the video? What do you think about Dr. Guha’s assertion that
India cannot and should not become a world power? Why did you choose the three
faults that you chose to discuss? Be sure to refer to the Indian political
system to support your answer.
Then take it a step further. Do a little
research on one or two of the “faults” Dr. Guha suggests in the video. In
responding to your peers, discuss whether you think India can overcome those
faults in the next few decades.
