==Ideas of [[Mahatma Gandhi]]==
==Ideas of [[Mahatma Gandhi]]==
*In [[South Africa]] Gandhi worked to improve living conditions for the [[India]]n minority. This work, which was especially directed against increasingly [[racist]] legislation, made him develop a strong Indian and religious commitment, and a will to [[self-sacrifice]]. With a great deal of success he introduced a method of [[non-violence]] in the Indian struggle for basic [[human rights]]. The method, satyagraha – "truth force" – was highly idealistic; without rejecting the [[rule of law]] as a principle, the Indians should break those laws which were unreasonable or suppressive. Each individual would have to accept punishment for having violated the law. However, he should, calmly, yet with determination, reject the legitimacy of the law in question. This would, hopefully, make the adversaries – first the South African authorities, later the [[British]] in India – recognize the unlawfulness of their legislation.
