**Anthony Barnett (London,** [**OK**](http://ourkingdom.opendemocracy.net/2007/05/08/hot-off-press-call-for-new-settlement/?ref=opendemocracy.net)**):** To salute India's independence I have been honoured to publish [a guest post on Pickled Politics](http://www.pickledpolitics.com/archives/1317?ref=opendemocracy.net) about how India's constitution is far ahead of our own. I link to Rajeev Bhargarva who shows how issues posed by multiculturalism and religion are framed much better by what India achieved in 1950 than by, for example, the constitution of the United States.
