Rabindranath Tagore Educational Experiment for Economic Sustainability

Author(s) Milan Das
Country India
Abstract Nations' development depends on their economic condition, and every nation is trying to develop its economic condition but needs to be more focused on economic sustainability. Economic Growth and economic sustainability are different approaches; economic growth is not concentrated on the future, but economic sustainability is focused on the future. Rabindranath Tagore focused on economic sustainability and experimented with his thoughts on Visva Bharati and Shilaidaha. This paper aims to discuss Rabindranath Tagore’s educational experiment on economic sustainability. Rabindranath Tagore realized that the nation’s progress could occur when the financial status of millions of rural people improved through education. Rabindranath Tagore focused on advanced scientific methods of agriculture, animal husbandry, cottage industry, nature education, etc. Rabindranath Tagore concentrates on the development of self-reliance and unity of pupils. This paper discusses how self-reliance and cooperation develop economic sustainability through Rabindranath Tagore’s thoughts and experiments. This paper focuses on some aspects of Tagore’s economic thought and rural development and will try to re-evaluate the significance of his economic thought in the present context of economic sustainability in India.
Keywords Economic sustainability, Rural reconstruction, Education, Self-reliance, Cooperation, poverty alleviation.
