Role of Education in Nation Building

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science - Year 2018, Vol 23, Issue 7

Abstract

Any nation is defined by shared culture, a common civilization heritage, a unity of purpose and a mutual understanding and respect for diversity which goes much beyond tolerance. Modern India is the oldest continuing civilization which links with at least four thousand years of a past which was built upon by many outside cultures like the Greek , Turk, Arabic, Moguls and English. The existing direction to nation-building that tends to spotlight on the structural and administrative rudiments of state reconstruction, chiefly in postconflict situations, should be re-evaluated in favor of a more proletariat, sociologically motivated and institutionally based approach. These in due course help to create a sense of shared wakefulness or common understanding among members of a society such that the cohesion and unity of common experiences creates a sense of organic solidarity and unity of purpose.
