Partition communalism and the people Bhisham Sahani's Tamas/Parminder Singh. Index. Reconstruction of identities by using literary texts in specific context of Punjab is the central motif of the present volume. It is a collective effort to understand the evolution of the Punjabi society in terms of religion gender caste class and rivalry. Starting from the 18 century text the volume explores various facets of the social life of Punjab till the end of colonial period. Despite the varying approaches of the contributors it seems clear that there was a definite change in the way religion and gender in particular were constructed across time that spans three centuries. In the case of religion there has been a movement from composite religious practices to the construction of singular religious tradition which was done in a way that culminated into the communal riots and killing and displacement of millions of Punjabis. The construction of gender presents the most interesting dimension of the Punjabi Society. The struggle of woman against patriarchy becomes visible even in the 18 century and in the 19 century the first Punjabi woman poet Peero raises the voice against suppression and marginality of woman in the Punjabi Society. An endeavour towards the construction of gender identity in the 19 century became simultaneously an act of creation of religious boundaries as was evident in the writings of Bhai Vir Singh. Further an attempt has been made to show how these identities form the crucial element in the dynamism of society. The historical and sociological evidence corroborates the interpretation of select literary texts to understand the Punjabi Society. Seen historically the interpretative analyses of the texts show tremendous continuity in the forging reinterpretation and reconstruction of identities. The synthesis and fission of religious identities created contestation that culminated into riots at a historical moment. In a way the volume shows the process through which the Punjabi society passed from pre colonial to the colonial period. 214 pp.

Understanding gender in the Indian context has always been a daunting task, largely due to the complex social structure characterized by myriad combinations of tradition and modernity. The present volume is an effort to map various issues and challenges confronting the universal task of gender parity. Various strategies to empower women, such as political rights and movements, economic freedom and identity assertion seem to be falling short of achievement of the desired goal. Divided into three sections, various contributions take cognizance of diversity of women issues and their concerns. An attempt is made to present the process of women empowerment in India based on empirical research carried out during the last three decades. The book offers a comprehensive view of the changing status of Indian women.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. At the onset of the 21st century, 47 per cent of the worlds population was urban: 74 per cent in the more developed regions and 41 per cent in the less developed regions. Further, among the less developed regions, levels of urbanization in Asia and Africa we…re the lowest, that is, about 37 per cent. According to UN HABITAT, 2006, Asia and Africa will host the largest population in the 21st century and not only cities will continue to be the sites of extreme inequality, it is also feared that Asian cities may not be able to cope with the pace of urbanization. Keeping with the trends in the world, there is also spurt in urbanization in India, which poses serious challenges for both urban development and urban governance. Earlier, urban development did not receive much attention in India, primarily due to low rate of urbanization. In 2005, it was taken as a serious agenda by the government when Jawaharlal Nehru Urban Renewal Mission was launched.Divided into three sections, the present anthology focuses on the challenges of urbanization and urban development for the ongoing and future governance. Due to unprecedented urbanization and urban growth, urban development has got a serious setback and is also depleting the quality of urban life. The challenges are manifold and in that context urban governance needs to be looked at from a fresh perspective and be given serious consideration to avoid further urban chaos and crisis. The present volume is an effort to bring together diverse perspectives on the urban governance to have comprehensive mapping of the urban issue in India.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Contents Preface. Introduction. 1. Mapping the Dalits. 2. Education and occupation. 3. Empowerment. 4. Emigration. 5. Entrepreneurship. 6. Paradox of changing Dalits. Conclusions. Bibliography. Index. Based on empirical investigation of rural and urban Punjab the book explores patterns of social mobility… of Dalits. Four dimensions namely education empowerment emigration and entrepreneurship have been examined to map the changing character of Dalits. In comparison to other states Punjab is often considered free from acute caste based inequalities and atrocities though caste system exists and prevails in the structure of everyday life of the Punjabis. It has been argued that certain visible changes have occurred among the Dalits of Punjab. Not all the castes among the Dalits have been able to transform their social and economic conditions altered their self perception as well as their status. More mobile castes particularly the Ad dharmis have constructed their own distinct and insulated world in which the Dalit and self have become coterminous and all other Dalit castes have been decentred from the discourse of caste equality. The urban Dalits have undergone rapid change in their conditions which they transformed into political empowerment at the local level. Despite the changes there are certain aspects of their social life which have not undergone change. Much of this is related to the consciousness of the Dalits. The existence and belief in the caste hierarchy could be gauged from the fact that they still are predominantly favouring caste endogamy. 234 pp.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The book presents a comprehensive and in-depth exploration of various social dimensions of entrepreneurship in India. It covers a wide spectrum from the emergence of capitalism in India with the establishment of East India Company to post-pandemic times. This journey of over four hundred years has not re…mained a continuous evolutionary process, rather a bouncy road with lot of cleavages of social and political concerns. The foundation of the basic arguments is laid on the interrelationship and interdependency of economy and society in any era of development and the bridge in between is the entrepreneur. The basic framework of the book is along the prevailing dichotomous arguments one, entrepreneurs are born, that is they have some hereditary traits of being entrepreneurs and second, entrepreneurs are created or groomed to be so through skill development, training and education. Both the viewpoints are coterminous and parallel in the context of Indian entrepreneurship. The much relevance of business communities, families and groups to entrepreneurship development in India has been reinforced and sustained by new entrepreneurs across gender, caste and class. The governments in post-independent era have been laying down the plans and policies for inclusive and sustainable development of entrepreneurship in India. The book will be useful for both the students and researchers in the area of entrepreneurship.
