Soft cover. Condition: As New. Social media produces numerous spaces and opportunities, globally, for people to link up, reach out, mobilise, assert their identity, build bridges. For those on the margins, this virtual alternative enables them to break down otherwise impenetrable social barriers and form close-knit digifams. Is…social media, then, a credible space for building social movements? Who is using it to register dissent, affect change? How successful have such movements been in taking over the digital public sphere? Are the prejudices that exist offline, present online as well? What is the political fallout of multidirectional conversations on the Internet? What about the backlash from trolls and gatekeepers? Situating Social Media: Gender, Caste, Protest, Solidarity enquires into the possibilities and actual practices of activism and solidarity-building on social media, across the tropes of gender, caste, class, religion, political ideology and disaster. Its wide-ranging essays examine the reportage of incidents and issues by a path-breaking YouTube channel like Dalit Camera; analyse different movements that not only trended online but also thrived on the streets like #MeToo, Pink Chaddi and Gay for a Day campaigns; unpack the Help Uttarakhand mobilisation for climate disaster victims; and attempt a theory of what makes the digital public click.

Ambiguous identities: statelessness of Gorkhas in North-East India/Anup Shekhar Chakraborty and Subhas Ranjan Chakraborty. Bibliography. Index. Statelessness is defined as the quality of being without a state, a nationality, or even the protection that nationality should offer. Addressing the lacuna in literature on stateless people in post-colonial South Asia, this study brings together the lived experiences of diverse stateless groups within a comparative framework. Through research conducted across dissimilar groups in different geographical locations-India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan-it asks some critical questions: How are certain groups and communities-often, the minorities-rendered stateless? Is the existing legal regime adequate to deal with the problem of statelessness? And do policymakers now need to think beyond legal terms, as judicial activism has clearly proved ineffective? Demonstrating that continued situations of dislocation and/or refugeehood can produce statelessness, the book elaborates a new way of thinking about this increasingly important field of study and suggests a way towards framing better and more inclusive international and national laws to deal with this issue. With its cross-disciplinary approach, this volume will be invaluable for undergraduate and postgraduate students of international relations, political science, law, history and refugee studies. It will also be useful to research centres and non-governmental organisations working on/with stateless and refugee groups across the world.

"The present volume is a mosaic of articles, a witness to the emergence of different schools of historiography who debate about bracketing science and technology together, about internal history (of viewing the scientific community as a society in itself) and external history (study of science in society at large) or even about whether sciences and not science in general merit their own history with regional variations. Some of the articles discuss personalities who have seen to the emergence of this country as a meaningful participant in the international sphere of scientific studies, relate science to other disciplines and also trace the rich heritage of endeavours in specific areas like medicine in the ancient period or voice recording technology in the early years of this century. Together with these, developments in technology in certain areas, beyond the frontiers of this nation have also been discussed. Nothing is too insignificant to be taken note of, not even dishwashers (gender issue in technology) or the canal system (industrial archaeology) in the broad canvas of history of sciences." (jacket).

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Contents: Foreword by Pratap Bhanu Mehta. Introduction. Part I: 1. The judiciary and the right to environment in India: past, present and future/Lovleen Bhullar. 2. Procedural environmental rights in Indian law/Shibani Ghosh. Part II: 3. Sustainable development and Indian environmental jur…isprudence/Saptarishi Bandopadhyay. 4. The polluter pays principle: scope and limits of judicial decisions/Lovleen Bhullar. 5. The precautionary principle/Lavanya Rajamani. 6. Public trust doctrine in indian environmental law/Shibani Ghosh. 7. The judicial implementation of environmental law in India/Dhvani Mehta. Notes on the contributors. Index. For more than three decades now, the Indian courts have delivered far-reaching judgments on a range of significant environmental matters. In their effort to adjudicate complex disputes with serious environmental repercussions, involving the interplay of multiple social, economic and political factors, the courts have developed a framework of environmental rights and legal principles, which now forms an integral part of Indian environmental jurisprudence. The judiciary invokes this framework creatively to identify constitutional, statutory and common law obligations of public and private actors to protect the environment, and to enforce the performance of related duties. There is, however, limited in-depth study of these crucial rights and principles in existing legal literature. Indian Environmental Law: Key Concepts and Principles fills this gap through its critical analysis of the evolution of this environmental legal framework in India. It studies the origins of environmental rights, substantive and procedural, and the four most significant legal principles- principle of sustainable development, polluter pays principle, precautionary principle and the public trust doctrine-and elaborates how Indian courts have defined, interpreted and applied them across a range of contexts. As environmental litigation and legal adjudication struggle to respond to this crisis, conceptual clarity about the content, application and limitations of environmental rights and legal principles is crucial for the improvement of environmental governance. This book explores the judicial reasoning and underlying assumptions in landmark judgments of the Supreme Court, the High Courts and the National Green Tribunal, and aims to provide the reader with a comprehensive understanding of this framework of rights and principles.

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Premchand on National Language is a collection of his writings, translated from Hindi into English, spannin the years from 1931 to 1936. The debates over Hindi as national language in the Devanagari script and the nature of contestations with Urdu in the Persian script led to an intellectu…al polarization that furthered the split between Hindus and Muslims. The need for a common language was generally accepted but to consider Hindi as national language was not accepted easily as its most challenging contender was English. The views and opinions on the issue of Hindi as 'rashtrabhasha' by leaders and intellectuals like Mahatma Gandhi, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Madan Mohan Malaviya, Makhanlal Chaturvedi, Lady Abdul Qadir, and others, referred to by Premchand gives us an insight into the turbulence of the times. His writings are largely in the form of reports, observations and critical comments that trace the chequered and contested issue of the history of proposing Hindi as the national language and even almost nine decades after, its relevance remains. Hindi, along with English is still not the national language, but the official language of India. (jacket).

Horror Fiction in the Global South: Cultures, Narratives, and Representations believes that the experiences of horror are not just individual but also/simultaneously cultural. Within this understanding, literary productions become rather potent sites for the relation of such experiences both on the individual and the cultural front. It's not coincidental, then, that either William Blatty's The Exorcist or Gabriel Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude become archetypes of the re-presentations of the way horror affects individuals placed inside different cultures. Such an affectation, though, is but a beginning of the ways in which the supernatural interacts with the human and gives rise to horror. Considering that almost all aspects of what we now designate as the Global North, and its concomitant, the Global South political, historical, social, economic, cultural, and so on function as different paradigms, the experiences of horror and their telling in stories become functionally different as well. Added to this are the variations that one nation or culture of the east has from another. The present anthology of essays, in such a scheme of things, seeks to examine and demonstrate these cultural differences embedded in the impact that figures of horror and specters of the night have on the narrative imagination of storytellers from the Global South. If horror has an everyday presence in the phenomenal reality that Southern cultures subscribe to, it demands alternative phenomenology. The anthology allows scholars and connoisseurs of Horror to explore theoretical possibilities that may help address precisely such a need.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. The present volume brings together a collection of writings by eminent scholars that seek to interrogate the processes of development from theoretical and practical points of view. The treatment of development as a discourse in this book can be helpful to cro…ss-examine possibilities as well as consequences of development from multiple, contextual and synoptic points of view and also to locate changes in the meaning of development over time and space. The sixteen essays in the volume focus on five vital areas: (a) the discourse of development; (b) state, market and civil society; (c) gender and development; (d) science, environment and development; and (e) society, community and development. The discussion not only raises certain critical issues on the subject today with particular reference to the Indian experience, it also suggests certain viable alternatives to resolve the impasse. Thought-provoking and comprehensive, this volume will appeal to a vast readership, ranging from students of development studies, sociology, gender studies, political science, social work, social anthropology and cultural studies to professionals like development planners, policy makers, politicians and activists.

The global financial crisis that exploded around September 2008 was just one more in a series of crises that have affected more than sixty countries in the era of financial liberalization Of course the latest crisis is particularly significant in a number of ways it originated in the core of capitalism in the United States; it h…as spread dramatically across the world even to countries that earlier seemed to be relatively secure; it calls into question many of the mainstream economic dogmas that have dominated economic policy-making for more than two decades Yet in some other ways the current crisis is not very different from those that have preceded it in the recent pastJuly 2007 marked the completion of a decade since the onset of financial crisis in several East and Southeast Asian countries The crisis of 1997 focused attention on the dangers associated with a world dominated by fluid finance It brought home the fact that financial liberalization can result in crises even in so-called ?miracle economies? Prior to the crisis the pace and pattern of growth in many countries in that region were challenging the dominance of the original capitalist powers over the global economy The 1997 crisis set back that process and even after a decade many of these countries have not been able to recover their pre-crisis dynamismIn hindsight it is clear that currency and financial crises have devastating effects on the real economy The ensuing liquidity crunch and wave of bankruptcies result in severe deflation with attendant consequences for employment and the standard of living The adoption post-crisis of conventional IMF stabilization strategies tends to worsen the situation governments continue to adopt very restrictive macroeconomic policies and restrain public expenditure even in crucial social sectors Finally asset-price deflation and devaluation pave the way for foreign capital inflows that finance a transfer of ownership of assets from domestic to foreign investors thereby enabling a conquest by international capital of important domestic assets and resourcesThis book delineates the alternative trajectories of post-crisis development in different economies the lessons they offer and the implications they have for alternative policies It is important to take stock of these processes because it is becoming evident that the international financial system has still not evolved effective ways of preventing such crises among emerging economies and of reducing their damaging effects This book therefore has a wider focus than the East Asian ?crisis economies? alone it tries to situate post-crisis developments in a broader analysis of the recent political economy of international capitalism in particular the role of mobile finance It also offers comparative perspectives on post-crisis restructuring in other developing countries that have experienced crisis; as well as on the experience of other Asian countries that were affected by but did not experience the financial crisis While the essays in this book were originally written in 2007 they remain extraordinarily relevant to the present times not least because they anticipate the processes that led to the global financial meltdown in 2008 Many of them predict the severe impact the current global crisis is having on both financial variables and the real economy in developing countries in particular 316 pp.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Cross-Cultural Networking in the Eastern Indian Ocean Realm examines the history of the Bay of Bengal and beyond, as initially documented in archaeological recoveries from AD 100 to AD 900 and subsequently the variety of regional historical evidence that demonstrates India's eastern Indian Ocean mar…itime and northern overland connections to the nineteenth century. In sum, the book highlights the importance and variety of consequence in east-coast India's linkage with the coastlines of the Bay of Bengal and the extended eastern Indian Ocean, especially India's eastern maritime and overland networking with South-East Asia and China. In the eighth century post-Gupta era the Buddhist religious centre at Nalanda in north-west Bengal assumed a major role as the destination of Indian and international Buddhist pilgrims who arrived by sea and land to study at Nalanda, and returned to promote Buddhist and Hindu religious and cultural exchanges in wider India and Sri Lanka, South-East Asia, and China through the fifteenth century. The book details India's long-term historical relationships with the legendary Sumatra-based Srivijaya Thalassocracy and its successors in the Straits of Melaka region, sequential Vietnam coastline-based polities c.6001800s, and the Andaman Islands and Tibet, as populations in northern and eastern Asia selectively localized South Asian culture.

This book is a collection of essays on agrarian history studied through the lens of epigraphy by scholars of early Indian history. The essays published here were presented at a seminar organized by the Asiatic Society to mark the birth centenary of Professor D.C. Sircar, the doyen of Indian epigraphy, in 2007. The rationale behind the choice of agrarian history lay in the fact that the single area of major historical debate in which Sircar participated was undoubtedly related to Indian agrarian history. Individual contribution has regional focus and the major themes addressed were agrarian economy, agrarian society, landlordism, landholders, agrarian resources and other relevant subjects. In a sense for the first time issues and perspectives related to agrarian history in different regions of early India are put together in the book. (jacket).

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. The history of a place, no matter how small, cannot be understood without appreciating the connections - visible or invisible; random or methodical; haphazard or systematic - it forges with other places across time and space. Once these connections become consistent and durable, they trans…form into connectivities, and Rethinking Connectivity: Region, Place and Space in Asia urges us to discern not just connections but also connectivities. Starting with cases of highly visible and structured/networked connectivities from an overland route spanning Central Asia and a coastal polity on the far side of the Indian Ocean, the book showcases some of the remarkable links forged in Asian history. It gives three examples of ideologies and individuals negotiating connections already established in colonial Bengal, and, from these realms of the visible, moves to the more intangible domain of visual strategies to discern connectivities. Cultural icons celebrating the nation, and maps displaying increasingly novel conceptions of space and time, reinforce the idea of an Asia that is connected, braided and also contested from early times to the present.

Netaji: an assessment/Ratna Ghosh. Index. "Subhas Chandra Bose, popularly known as Netaji was an outstanding leader of the Indian National Movement. The life of Subhas reads like a thrilling saga of most dramatic events. Subhas was truly the greatest hero of India's struggle for freedom. Subhas Chandra Bose was born on 23 January, 1897 at Cuttack in Orissa. Subhas was almost hypnotized by Swami Vivekananda's teachings "seek your salvation in the welfare of humanity." He had found his ideal to which he could devote his whole being. He graduated from the Calcutta University and qualified for the Indian Civil Service. This led to mental conflicts as to whether or not he should join the coveted heaven born service. At last he resigned his attractive career to serve the cause of India's freedom. Subhas Chandra Bose had joined the non-cooperation movement and since then had been a promising dynamic young man of the Congress organization. Yet he nurtured revolutionary ideas and was never really-fully happy with Gandhiji's philosophy and technique of political agitations. He was convinced that India could.
