Self-Help Groups (SHGs) & Women Empowerment in India

Self-Help Groups (SHGs) & Women Empowerment in India

Arjun Y Pangannavar

New Century Publications
2012
sidottu
According to Census 2011, population of India increased from 103 crore in 2001 to 121 crore in 2011, an increase of 18 crore or 17.6 percent. Out of 121 crore, 62.4 crore (51.6 percent) were males and 58.6 crore (48.4) were females. Women play a critical role in the family which is the basic unit of a society. Family is a strong force for social cohesion and integration and as such should be strengthened. The inadequate support to women and insufficient protection to their respective families affect society as a whole and undermines efforts to achieve gender equality. In different cultural, political and social systems, various forms of family exist and the rights, capabilities and responsibilities of family members must be respected. The emergence and rapid multiplication of Self-help Groups (SHGs) based on micro credit is a phenomenon that is gaining increasing importance in the development scenario. SHGs are being viewed by governments and NGOs as a strategy for both womens empowerment as well as poverty reduction. SHGs are a conduit for routing a wide range of government-sponsored development messages and schemes.NGOs have increasingly been adopting SHGs as a strategy to bring women together, at a faster pace and larger scale than the collective building processes adopted by them earlier. This book explains and examines the role of SHGs in the socio-economic empowerment of poor rural women in India.

Scheduled Castes (SCs) in India

Scheduled Castes (SCs) in India

Arjun Y Pangannavar

New Century Publications
2014
sidottu
Since India's independence, the socio-economic development and protection of scheduled castes (SCs) from discrimination and exploitation has been a high priority area for the country. They have been socially ostracized, economically exploited, and denied human dignity and a sense of self-worth. According to the 2011 Census, SCs constituted 16.9% of the Indian population. And, sadly, women belonging to SCs are in a far worse situation by all development indicators. Poverty and deprivation affect them more adversely. Yet, in spite of their adverse conditions, they contribute significantly to the sustenance and growth of the production system of the country. The development and empowerment of SCs is a commitment enshrined in India's constitution. This is to be done by ensuring equal rights, access to benefits and resources, and empowerment to enable SCs to develop their potential and capacities as agents of social change, through the process of planned development. Planning in recent years has seen a visible shift in focus from the mere expansion of the production of goods and services - and the consequent growth of per capita income - to planning for the enhancement of human well-being. This book explains and examines the problems and constraints of the scheduled caste population. Development strategy and various measures adopted to ameliorate their socio-economic conditions are also discussed.

Vredens geografi : rädslan för de fåtaliga

Vredens geografi : rädslan för de fåtaliga

Arjun Appadurai

Tankekraft förlag
2007
nidottu
Att massorna har kapacitet att ingjuta fruktan är känt sedan länge. Men hur kommer det sig att vi i dagens liberala stater bevittnar en allt mer utpräglad rädsla för de fåtaliga en fruktan för minoriteter av alla slag? För samhällsvetaren och antropologen Arjun Appadurai måste svaret på denna fråga sökas dels i historien om de moderna nationalstaternas uppkomst, dels i de speciella villkor som de senaste årens globaliseringsprocesser har skapat. Med utgångspunkt i den till synes paradoxala iakttagelsen att dagens förhärskande diskurs om öppna gränser och integration samexisterar med allt tätare utbrott av kulturellt motiverat våld och etnisk rensning, erbjuder han ett begreppsligt ramverk för att hantera några av de mest brännande politiska frågorna i vår tid. Arjun Appadurai är författare till den uppmärksammade studien Modernity At Large: Cultural Dimensions of Globalization (1996). Vredens geografi, som är den tredje titeln i TankeKrafts bokserie »Globaliseringens ideologier«, är hans första bok som ges ut på svenska.

Land Of The Gods

Land Of The Gods

Arjun Singh Kadian

Rupa Publications India Pvt. Ltd
2021
nidottu
An ambitious book that engages with a region and people who have defined the subcontinent for over five millennia. The great war of right versus wrong was fought here. It was from this land that Lord Krishna's wisdom-the universal truth-spread across the globe. It is the cradle of the ancient Indus-Saraswati civilization, with the sacred river Saraswati, glorified in the Rig Veda, flowing in its full might across the plains and onward. Kings and emperors used this place to expand and consolidate their empires. The East India Company, and later the British Crown, played their games here, manipulating and managing their colonial affairs. The much-ridiculed 'Aaya Ram, Gaya Ram' political epithet originated here. This land gave the nation a number of stalwarts of the Independence movement. And, it became the address for a cocktail of regional and national political manoeuvrings, impacting national politics in major ways. In his debut book, Land of the Gods: The Story of Haryana, Arjun Singh Kadian takes the readers through a fascinating journey of Haryana which offers new insights and delightful nuggets.

Turning Points: Key Moments in Human History

Nomadic hunter-gatherer tribes gave way to agricultural settlements marked by the Agricultural Revolution, a watershed event in human history. This revolutionary upheaval, which began around 10,000 BCE, reshaped economies, cultures, and the entire fabric of human existence. More than just a change in farming methods, the Agricultural Revolution had far-reaching effects that continue to ripple through history and shape our modern world. The First Farms and Their Impact on the WorldUnderstanding the historical context of the Agricultural Revolution is essential before diving into its significance. The cradle of agriculture is frequently connected to the Fertile Crescent, an area in the Middle East containing parts of present-day Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, and Jordan. This is where early humans first began farming cereal grains and domesticating animals like sheep and goats. It was a huge step forward from the precarious hunter-gatherer existence to be able to take charge of one's own food supply through careful management of the environment. As time went on, other areas began to practice agriculture after its initial success in the Fertile Crescent. It was in China that rice was first cultivated, in Mesoamerica it was maize, and in the Andes it was potatoes. This worldwide spread of agriculture paved the way for the development of many different cultures, each of which improved upon previous methods by tailoring them to its specific climate and topography.
