Zusammenfassung:	This book explores Gandhi’s engagement with print news media. It examines how Gandhi, the man and his message, negotiated with the socio-political circumstances of his milieu and the communication strategies that he adopted towards this end. It analyses the role that he played in building up alternative modes of communication in South Africa and India. The volume elucidates his interactions with the colonial communication order and his contestations of the same, through various methods that included setting up new journals, newspapers, and taking on the role of writer, journalist, editor and publisher. It unveils Gandhi’s engagement with the mass media and print journalism, particularly concerning issues of conflict and conflict resolution as well as social transformation right from his days in London to the last days of his life. A significant contribution to scholarship on Mahatma Gandhi, the volume will be of great interest to scholars of politics, media and cultural studies, history and South Asian studies
