Mahatma Gandhi

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (/ˈɡɑːndi, ˈɡæn-/;Hindustani: [ˈmoːɦənd̪aːs ˈkərəmtʃənd̪ ˈɡaːnd̪ʱi]; 2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948) was the preeminent leader of the Indian independence movement in British-ruled India. Employing nonviolent civil disobedience, Gandhi led India to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahatma (Sanskrit: "high-souled", "venerable")—applied to him first in 1914 in South Africa,—is now used worldwide. He is also called Bapu (Gujarati: endearment for "father", "papa") in India. In common parlance in India he is often called Gandhiji. He is unofficially called the Father of the Nation.

Born and raised in a Hindu merchant caste family in coastal Gujarat, western India, and trained in law at the Inner Temple, London, Gandhi first employed nonviolent civil disobedience as an expatriate lawyer in South Africa, in the resident Indian community's struggle for civil rights. After his return to India in 1915, he set about organising peasants, farmers, and urban labourers to protest against excessive land-tax and discrimination. Assuming leadership of the Indian National Congress in 1921, Gandhi led nationwide campaigns for easing poverty, expanding women's rights, building religious and ethnic amity, ending untouchability, but above all for achieving Swaraj or self-rule.

Gandhi Bookstores were created in the year of 1971; they are now one of the biggest bookstores chains in Mexico. After 40 years and more than 36 stores all over the country, besides being one of the biggest chains, it is also the most known.

History

Gandhi Bookstores were founded on June 24, 1971, by Mauricio Achar. He created the bookstore in the belief that a great amount of the country's problems were due to the lack of reading by its population. The name of the bookstore is because of Mahatma Gandhi and the influence, Mauricio, wanted to do the same. The original store occupied 150 square meters, and it was located at Miguel Ángel de Quevedo 128, south Mexico's City. Even though it was small, the store had a cafeteria of its own, were people would gather not just to read or hat, but to have cultural activities like watching movies, theater plays, listen to music, etc. This were the basic thing that interested people into going more often to the bookstore.

Stores

Today, there are 25 different Gandhi Bookstores. 12 are located within Mexico City and 13 in other parts of the Republic. The other 11 stores are inside "Palacio de Hierro". The public that comes to the libraries is mostly conformed by students, teacher, young-adults, professionals, and everyone else that is interested by the culture and look for information or entertainment.
