Abstract
ABSTRACT Mahatma Gandhi’s life, ideas and educational philosophies on the whole form important cluster in peace education. Gandhi mainly valued three types of correlation in education viz., physical environment, social environment and craft, which are unavoidable in peace studies. Through these correlations Gandhi wanted to develop qualities which were necessary for building a non-violent society. His Nai Talim integrated craft, art, health and education into one scheme. Gandhi’s approach was ethical, as he believed that moral degeneration was the root cause of all evils including conflicts. Hence, he recommended acquisition of moral value by correlating education with craft, social surrounding and physical environment. This essay seeks to investigate why Gandhi identified these three as basic correlating factors? How far these factors are truly related with peace education and significant in promoting peace? How these correlating principles were accommodated within the educational structure? How far these correlating factors are significant in promoting peace? What is the scope of these correlations in the field of peace education? The present essay attempts to answer all these questions by using both qualitative and quantitative sources.
