Despite their mutual commitment to social justice and nation-building, Gandhi and Mao offer two contrasting styles of leadership— one nonviolent and the other based on the premise that political power comes from force. This unit will compare and contrast these two major leaders in terms of both the objectives they sought to achieve and the methods they used to carry out their programs.
