India: Dagger in the Heart of the British Empire. This 16-page, 8-source piece is an overview of India's road to independence. The author starts by discussing how India first became a target for commercial exploitation in the 15th century. Following the progression of British trade followed by accumulation of political and military power, the author shows how the British eventually developed a stranglehold on India, often to the detriment of its citizens. The author shows how bringing Western culture to India helped start the move for independence by fostering ideas of equality and democracy among the educated. Finally, through the efforts of Gandhi and other revolutionaries, the author shows how persistence and non-violence - rather than brutal uprisings and terrorism - became the tools by which India would eventually become free. 16 pgs.
