Using the metaphor of the future, Ashis Nandy's collection of essays critiques prevailing ideologies that limit cultural possibilities and social ethics. He challenges Enlightenment concepts of reason, progress, and development, arguing for a reimagining of the present through diverse futures. Nandy emphasizes the need for alternative systems of knowledge, particularly when emancipatory ideas are misused as tools of oppression. His work calls for a more humane society grounded in varied perspectives rather than the homogenizing forces of the past two centuries.
