| Summary: | Revolution and development are two terms we often come across in the context of socio-political reforms. These two words are very closely inter-related. Revolution usually suggests theidea of a rapid and radical change in the system of a nation for the creation of a better society. Development, on the other hand, points to a somewhat slow or moderate way of establishinga better and more human world. When the developmental pro�grammes are too slow people may lose interest in them and, at the earliest opportunity, at instigation of some leader start a revolution. Revolution, in spite of its shortcomings and massive destruction, can quickly bring about phenomenal changes calculated to benefit future generations. Some of its negative results could be well avoided if speedy developmental programmes are effectively carried out in due time. Revolution and development are, thus, very closely associated and the life of a country is often a living tension between these two. |
