Gandhi's Critique of Industrialization

 In the words of Gandhi, Industrialization is, I am afraid, going to be a curse for mankind. Exploitation of one nation by another cannot go on for all time.

Industrialism depends entirely on your capacity to exploit, on foreign markets being open to you, and on the absence of competitors… India, when it begins to exploit other nations as it must if it becomes industrialized-will be a curse for other nations, a menace to the world.

He did not believe that industrialization is necessary in any case for any country. It is much less so for India. 

Indeed, We believe that Independent India can only discharge her duty towards a groaning world by adopting a simple but ennobled life by developing her thousands of cottages and living at peace with the world.

High thinking is inconsistent with complicated material life based on high speed imposed on us by Mammon worship. All the graces of life are possible only when we learn the art of living nobly.
