Stree Ramayana: Voices of Consent, Courage and Equality

'Stree Ramayana looks at the epic through the still, patient gaze of its women-those who carried love, duty, pain, and dignity in ways rarely spoken of. Their stories do not shout; they breathe. In the silences of Sita, the restraint of Mandodari, the fire of Shurpanakha, the loneliness of Urmila, and the grace of Ahalya and Tara, a different Ramayana unfolds-one woven with unfiltered strength, unclaimed choices, and unacknowledged truth. This book offers a doorway into that unseen world-a space where courage looks like endurance, where consent is an inner whisper, where sacrifice is not glorified but understood, and where dignity survives even in the harshest trials. It invites the reader to pause, listen, and meet these women as they are: flawed, fierce, tender, misunderstood, and profoundly human.

Global Digital Cultures

Digital media histories are part of a global network, and South Asia is a key nexus in shaping the trajectory of digital media in the twenty-first century. Digital platforms like Facebook, WhatsApp, and others are deeply embedded in the daily lives of millions of people around the world, shaping how people engage with others as kin, as citizens, and as consumers. Moving away from Anglo-American and strictly national frameworks, the essays in this book explore the intersections of local, national, regional, and global forces that shape contemporary digital culture(s) in regions like South Asia: the rise of digital and mobile media technologies, the ongoing transformation of established media industries, and emergent forms of digital media practice and use that are reconfiguring sociocultural, political, and economic terrains across the Indian subcontinent. From massive state-driven digital identity projects and YouTube censorship to Tinder and dating culture, from Twitter and primetime television to Facebook and political rumors, Global Digital Cultures focuses on enduring concerns of representation, identity, and power while grappling with algorithmic curation and data-driven processes of production, circulation, and consumption.
Micro-finance is one of the fastest growing development strategies, in many ways it is already outgrowing development with several micro-finance institutions becoming banks. But it is becoming clear that the provision of credit for enterprise development is not on its own leading to development. Beyond Micro-Credit sets out how Indian Micro-Finance Initiatives are combining micro-finance with a wide range of development goals, these include not only poverty alleviation through providing savings, credit and insurance services but also promoting livelihoods, empowering women, building people's organizations and changing institutions. It illustrates each of these from actual microfinance practice and explores the organizational challenges of combining such development goals with financial service provision. It includes detailed analysis of "self-help groups"; comparisons with microfinance practice in Bangladesh and contemporary methods of assessing performance and impact.
This book introduces students of the Japanese economy to a broad range of critical contemporary Marxian analyses by Japanese economists. Each of the five essays - on economic policy, agriculture, big business, labour relations, and foreign trade and investment - is written by a specialist in the field. The introduction places the essays in the wider context of contrasting theories of Japanese economic development. While such writings constitute an important part of the economic literature in Japan, virtually none of the great body of Marxian writing on Japanese capitalism has heretofore been available in English.

The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) has been singular in heralding and establishing a firm regional polity among the Indian states after the Indian Union was inaugurated as a republic. Academic scholarship has often treated the DMK as a Tamil nationalist or ethno-nationalist formation without conceptual clarity or critical insight. Rule of the Commoner demonstrates with persuasive evidence that the DMK appealed to a federalist and not nationalist imagination. The DMK's combining of the non-Brahmin Dravidian identity and allegiance to Tamil language led to a counter hegemonic formation of the plebes and left populism. Drawing on Ernesto Laclau, the book argues that the DMK achieved the construction of a people as Dravidian-Tamil, with Tamil being the empty signifier of the social whole, Brahmin vs. non-Brahmin divide functioning as the internal frontier leading to the formations of the political. It elaborates the conceptual scheme under the three rubrics of Ideation, Imagination and Mobilization.
A critical study of incentives commonly used to induce non-state armed groups to engage in peace negotiations. Offers a closer analysis of these incentives, which offer such groups a place or a stake in governance, suggesting that not only are they frequently ineffective, but that they can have unintended and dangerous side effects.

When men of knowledge impart this knowledge, I do not mean they will convince your reason. I mean they will awaken in you the faith that it is so. - Sri Krishna, Bhagavadgita BACKGROUND The use of computers has led to significant productivity increases in the en gineering industry. Most ofthe computer-aided engineering applications were . restricted to algorithmic computations, such as finite element programs and circuit analysis programs. However, a number ofproblems encountered in en gineering are not amenable to purely algorithmic solutions. These problems are often ill-structured; the term ill-structured problems is used here to de note problems that do not have a clearly defined algorithmic solution. An experienced engineer deals with these ill-structured problems using his/her judgment and experience. The knowledge-based systems (KBS) technology, which emerged out of research in artificial intelligence (AI), offers a method ologyto solve these ill-structuredengineering problems. The emergenceofthe KBS technology can be viewed as the knowledge revolution: other important events that led to increased productivity are the industrial revolution (17th century); the invention of the transistor and associated developments (first half of the 20th century); and the world-wide web (towards the end of the 20th century). Kurzweil, in a lecture at M. LT on December 3, 1987, linked the progress of automation to two industrial revolutions: the first industrial PREFACE xxxii revolution leveraged our physical capabilities, whereas the second industrial revolution - the knowledge revolution - is expected leverage oUr mental ca pabilities.

Teaching core principles of life to kids is an important exercise for the parents. Making such exercise fun for the kids will help them remember and practice their learnings. Being the parents ourselves, as we thought of effective ways, we concluded that the best way to make it fun is to build short-stories with the backdrop of the African Savannah, that is precisely what we accomplished with this book. The stories are simple, interesting, intriguing and fun.To help children gain general knowledge, we incorporated authentic Masai names and geographically accurate location descriptions. We also included a "Do you know?" section for each story that explains several relevant interesting facts about the animals, locations or people from the stories.We believe to have achieved a great mix of presenting fun stories along with various real-life facts to make the reading worth the time and effort of our little readers and their loving parents (or guardians).The book will be a great purchase for your own children or for gifting it to other family members or friends. Sneak-peek into the book: This book contains 5 short-stories or tales that revolve around several wild animals living in the Ngorongoro crater and a Masai family that lives in a village on the rim of the crater.In one story, you will learn the risk of being jealous of your own family when the little lion cub, Chipo, gets encircled by the evil crocodiles. In another story, the kind monkey, Akili, helps his trapped bee friend. If a gentle hippo is saved by a honey-badger with quick and witty thinking in one story, then the animals group together to escape the hunter in the next one. Feel the fun? Please purchase the book to enjoy these stories. We promise that the book will be your great companion.This is our first book and we are open for any constructive feedback and support. We promise to improve as we publish more such books over time. We also promise to donate 50 cents to a leading children's hospital for every purchased unit.
