Left Behind. Lived Stories are the carefully selected memories of an early woman diplomat of the Indian Foreign Service (IFS). On the surface, this is a collection of episodes experienced in various parts of the world during the author's years as a diplomat. At a deeper level, they are carefully chosen stories that highlight social and political events that touch upon pressing issues of our time: majoritarianism; religious and ethnic prejudices; and the crisis of democracy. Also included is the story of the first successful case of extradition in this country, that of Abu Salem, and the issue of gender discrimination, which led to an upheaval in the IFS in 1979 and remains relevant today. Through events she witnessed during her postings, the author discusses how notions of 'nationalism' and 'patriotism' were tested when the Soviet Union broke into fourteen new nations and Yugoslavia into six, all in the name of nationalism. The stories from her days in Vietnam, immediately after the country's victory against America in 1975 despite having no air force or navy, leads to the question: How relevant are technologically sophisticated weapons for India, which is the world's largest importer of weapons? The author also discusses how, after her retirement, she became an activist of the RTI movement and a founder-member of the Aam Aadmi Party. These stories will be of interest to civil service aspirants and students of history and international relations. Discerning readers trying to make sense of the times will also find Lived Stories enlightening.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 'Aruna Roy reflects on [a] life of deep engagement, weaving the personal and [the] political. A great inspiration.' - Amartya Sen & Jean Dreze 'A brilliant and riveting feminist manifesta for social change.' - V (Formerly Eve Ensler) 'There are many who speak, but very few who act. This book is a testim…onial to the fact that change comes only with action and reinforces the proverb "Actions are the best words spoken".' - Perumal Murugan Magsaysay Award-winning social activist Aruna Roy's remarkably forthright memoir is the story of two parallel journeys---a fifty-year-long engagement with public action in India, and a personal narrative that traces how the author has striven to convert her ideological convictions into practice. For long decades, Aruna Roy has lived with and worked for the benefit of marginalized communities in rural India, fighting for the right to survive in a hostile environment. Alongside accounts of the plight of the vulnerable and the transformative power of mass-based grassroot social movements, her recollections are marked with stories of resilient individuals and communities and their extraordinary resistance to oppression. Roy recounts a powerful lesson learnt from her extraordinary life: that every issue, whether it is poverty, discrimination, inequality or corruption, has personal as well as political ramifications. It is only by connecting the personal and the political, Roy says, that each one of us can make a difference.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. 'To know is to understand. To understand is to be at peace or - embattled.' The RTI Story: Power to the People is the story of a campaign that evolved into a genuine and vibrant people's movement. Culled from the voices of people, often such stories only feed into the research of scholars,…largely unacknowledged and forgotten. The dominant narrative is always from the perspective of the ruler and single individuals. One had hoped that democracy would set it right. But the people who are the primary contributors to the discourse always remain on the fringes. Written by Aruna Roy with the MKSS collective, this book is for everyone who asks questions, seeks answers to fight corruption and injustice, and challenges arbitrary power. It is a celebration of commitment laced with humour, the struggle, the songs, the theatres of protest, long spells on the street and drafting a peoples' law.
