The City of God” is Saint Augustine’s highly influential work of Christian philosophy. This expansive theological work provided an articulate defense of Christianity against the claims that it lead to the downfall of Rome in the years preceding its publication. It outlines a citizenship that goes beyond the worldly, the political, and the self centered, instead focusing on a place where the inhabitants are devout, God-focused, and seeking grace. In examining history with a clear perception of good and evil, Augustine was in effect interpreting human actions in relation to eternity. He contrasts earthly and heavenly cities to great effect, in addition to inspecting pagan religions, Greek philosophers like Plato, and the Bible.

Hindu Pad-Padashahi By Veer Savakar (Hardcover)
Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, also known as Swatantryaveer Savarkar, was a freedom fighter and an Indian independence leader and politician who coined the Hindu nationalist ideology of Hindutva. “Hindu Pad Padshahi,” refers to the idea of establishing a Hindu monarchy or a Hindu kingdom. This concept was proposed by Savarkar as part of his vision for India’s future. He believed that an independent India should be a Hindu- majority nation, where Hindu culture and values would be dominant. Savarkar’s ideas and philosophy, on the concept of “Hindu Pad Padshahi,” have been subjects of both praise and criticism. While some consider him a visionary and a champion of Hindu rights, others criticize his ideology for its emphasis on religious identity and its potential exclusionary nature.

On Liberty by John Stuart Mill (H.B)
Discussed and debated from time immemorial, the concept of personal liberty went without codification until the publication of this enduring work which applies an ethical system of utilitarianism to society and the state which to this day remains well known and studied. Mills (1806-1873), a British economist, philosopher, and ethical theorist whose argument does not focus on “the so-called Liberty of the Willbut Civil, or Social Liberty: the nature and limits of the power which can be legitimately exercised by society over the individual” asks and answers provocative questions relating to the boundaries of social authority and individual sovereignty. He declares that there is “one very simple principle” regarding the use of coercion in society one may only coerce others either to defend oneself or to defend others from harm. Mill puts forth his basic argument in favor of liberty for the individual as long as it harms no one else. Setting forth the value of liberty of opinion and liberty of action, he emphasizes the importance of individuality versus the “tyranny of the majority” and highlights the positive effects of liberty on all people and on society, as freedom enables progress and prevents social stagnation. He details the appropriate level of authority society ought to have over the individual societys obligation to protect people incapable of exercising their own freedom. On Liberty remains one of the most influential studies on the nature of individual liberty and its role in a democratic society.
