Yet, Rau's ideas and his voice have largely been forgotten today. By examining Rau's constitutional ideas and following its trajectory in late colonial Indian politics, this book shows how the process of the making of the Indian constitution was actually never separated from the politics of conflict that dominated this period. This book demonstrates that it is only by foregrounding this political history that we can simultaneously remember Rau's critical contributions as well as understand why he was forgotten in the first place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eArvind Elangovan, \u003cem\u003eAssociate Professor, Wright State University, Dayton, Ohio\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eArvind Elangovan teaches history at Wright State University, US.
