What can France learn from the Indian Constitution’s approach to secularism?

-
 France can learn from the Indian Constitution's approach to secularism in several aspects: 1. Inclusive Definition of Secularism: The Indian Constitution adopts a more inclusive definition of secularism compared to the French model of laïcité. While France follows a strict separation of religion and state, the Indian Constitution embraces the concept of "sarva dharma sambhava," which means equal respect for all religions. This approach recognizes the diverse religious and cultural fabric of the country and aims to provide equal protection and treatment to all religious communities. 2. Accommodation of Religious Diversity: India's secular approach acknowledges and accommodates the religious diversity of its population.

The crisis of ethical values in modern times is traced to a narrow perception of the good life. Discuss. ?

-
 The crisis of ethical values in modern times can indeed be attributed, in part, to a narrow perception of the good life. When the concept of a "good life" becomes limited to material wealth, individual success, and immediate gratification, ethical values and considerations can often be overshadowed or compromised. Here's a discussion on this issue, along with examples: 1. Materialism and Consumerism: In modern society, there is often an emphasis on material possessions and consumerism as markers of a good life. This narrow focus on material wealth and accumulation can lead to a neglect of ethical values such as compassion, empathy, and social responsibility. For example, individuals may prioritize personal financial gain at the expense of fair and equitable distribution of resources in society. 2. Individualism and Self-Interest: The pursuit of individual success and self-interest can sometimes override ethical considerations for the well-being of others and the larger c...
