        India in a globalized world

        by Sagarika Dutt, Caroline Wilding

        This book looks at India in the context of a globalized world. It starts by looking at the history of Indian civilization, exploring the roots of Indian identity and highlighting processes such as foreign invasions, foreign trade, cultural imperialism, colonial rule and the growth of Indian nationalism. The book examines the gradual democratization of Indian politics. Cultural and ethnic divisions in Indian society are examined in depth, as are the problems that have prevented economic development and stood in the way of economic liberalization. The history of India's integration into the global economy is considered, and the opportunities available to the country in the early years of the 21st century are detailed. The final chapters consider the Indian government's perception of the Indian diaspora, as well as the changing priorities reflected in India's foreign policy since 1947.

        Searching for the Left in a fragmented world

        by Bishnupriya Dutt, Silvija Jestrovic

        Through the lens of performance and politics, this collection zooms in on the context-specific dimensions, analogies, and micro-histories of the Left to better understand the larger picture. It proposes a search for the Left not from totalising Leftist ideological positions and partisan politics but from ethical dimensions through smaller-scale Left-leaning struggles; not from the political to the aesthetic, but from the potentiality of art to offer new political imagination and critique; not from the individual subordinated to the collective, but from the dialectics of subjectivity and collectivity. This is not an attempt at a sweeping global overview of Leftist cultures either, but a collection that brings together culture-specific and comparative perspectives. This book searches for fragments of and on the Left, past and present, through which to rethink and patch a fragmented world.

        Begriffsgeschichten

        Studien zur Semantik und Pragmatik der politischen und sozialen Sprache

        by Reinhart Koselleck, Carsten Dutt, Ulrike Spree, Willibald Steinmetz

        Im Zentrum von Reinhart Kosellecks Werk steht die Begriffsgeschichte, deren Paradigma er – der 'denkende Historiker', wie Hans-Georg Gadamer ihn einmal genannt hat – maßgeblich entwickelt und zur Grundlage des von ihm mitherausgegebenen Großlexikons der Geschichtlichen Grundbegriffe gemacht hat. Die Begriffsgeschichte Koselleckscher Prägung wendet sich ganz spezifisch gegen eine abstrakte Ideengeschichte. Sie richtet sich auf den tatsächlichen Sprachgebrauch im sozialen, politischen und rechtlichen Leben. Dabei werden konkrete Erfahrungen und Erwartungen an der Gelenkstelle zwischen sprachgebundenen Quellen und politisch- sozialer Wirklichkeit ausgemessen. Mit dieser Sammlung von 25 Untersuchungen hinterläßt ihr Autor ein Vermächtnis. Er erzählt die Geschichte unserer, der modernen Welt anhand der Begriffsgeschichten von 'Staat', 'Revolution ', 'Aufklärung', 'Emanzipation', 'Bildung ' und 'Utopie'. Stets wird dabei der Doppelstatus dieser Begriffe, ihre Indikatoren- und Faktorenrolle im historischen Prozeß, deutlich. Die semantisch- pragmatische Analyse der Begriffe macht Kontinuitäten ebenso wie Umschlagpunkte der Sozial- und Kulturgeschichte sichtbar und gibt so eine eigene Form geschichtlicher Erfahrung frei: Die Historie der Begriffe wird zum Medium der historischen Selbstaufklärung der Gegenwart.

        Fair Trade and Organic Agriculture

        A Winning Combination?

        by Priyanka Parvathi, Ulrike Grote, Hermann Waibel, Arnab Basu, Lee Buyers, Rene Capote, Ricardo Fort, Ulrike Grote, Casey Goldvale, Ulrich Hamm, Pradyot Ranjan Jena, Linda Kleemann, Katharina Krumbiegel, Julia Lernoud, Priyanka Parvathi, Yu Hui Qiao, Ruerd Ruben, Rosa Scheenbecker, Till Stellmacher, Romane Viennet, Hermann Waibel, Helga Willer, Meike Wollni, Katrin Zander

        The markets for organic and fair trade certified commodities are growing rapidly, with environmentally sound and more equitable certification systems likely to offer benefits for both small-scale farmers and society at large. Despite much debate about their contribution to sustainability, there has been little scientific analysis, so it is vital to assess if it is technically and economically feasible to meet growing consumer demands regarding food safety, quality and ethics through smallholder and marginal producers. Overall, there is a need to explore the potential of these certification systems as emerging areas in research and development cooperation. This book includes: - Worldwide case studies (from the supply side in Asia, Africa, and Latin America; and from the demand side in Europe and North America) to put theory into practice. - Analyses of sustainable development and poverty reduction through organic and fair trade markets. - Insights into the conditions where it is beneficial for developing country smallholder producers to adopt fair trade and organic certification systems. - Investigation into whether consumers will pay more for a product that is both organic and fair trade certified. This book is an important read for researchers and students in agricultural and development economics, and it is also a useful resource for policy makers and practitioners involved in organic and fair trade agriculture.

        Red Ant Black Ant

        by Girindrasekhar Basu; translated by Sukanta Chaudhuri

        Lal-kalo, a book for children written nearly a hundred years ago in 1930, is one of themost curious examples of Bengali juvenile literature. Its author, Girindrasekhar Basu,is regarded as the father of Indian psychoanalysis. In 1911, he began a decade-longcorrespondence with Sigmund Freud on cultural variations in psychoanalytic conceptsand founded the Indian Psychoanalytic Society in Calcutta in 1922. Lal-kalo, a delightful story about the battle between the red ants and the black ants, with an all-singing and dancing cast of owls, geckos, frogs, snakes and the like, has remained a perennial children’s favourite ever since.

        Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Crop Plants

        Breeding and Biotechnology

        by Bidhan Roy & Asit Kumar Basu

        Abiotic stresses have become an integral part of crop production. One or other persist either in soil, water or in atmosphere. The information in the areas of injury and tolerant mechanisms, variability for tolerance, breeding and biotechnology for improvement of crop plants against abiotic stresses are lying unorganized in different articles of journals and edited books. This information is presented in this book in organized way with up-to-date citations, which will provide comprehensive literatures of recent advances. More emphasis has been given to elaborate the injury and tolerance mechanisms, and development of improved genotypes against stress environments. This book also deals with the plants symptoms of particular abiotic stress, reclamation of soil and crop/cropping pattern to over come the effect of adverse condition(s). Each has been laid out with systematic approaches to develop abiotic stress tolerant genotypes using biotechnological tools. Use of molecular markers in stress tolerance and development of transgenic also have been detailed. Air pollution and climate change are the hot topic of the days. Thus, the effect of air pollution and climate change on crop plants have been detailed in the final three chapters of this book. Under abiotic stress, plant produces a large quantity of free radicals (oxidants), which have been elaborated in a separate ‘Oxidative Stress. This book has been divided into seven major parts- physical stress (salt), water stresses (drought and waterlogging), temperature stresses (heat and cold), metal toxicities (aluminium, iron, cadmium, lead, nickel, chromium, copper, zinc etc) and non-metal toxicities (boron and arsenic), oxidative stress, and finally atmospheric stresses (air pollution, radiation and climate change). This book will be of greater use for the students and researchers, particularly Plant Breeders and Biotechnologists as well as the Botanists, to understand the injury and tolerance mechanisms, and subsequently improvement of crop genotypes for abiotic stresses.

        NAXALITE POLITICS

        POST-STRUCTURALIST, POSTCOLONIAL AND SUBALTERN PERSPECTIVES

        by Pradip Basu

        Indeed, the upheaval was such that nothing remained the same after Naxalbari. People had to readjust their position vis-à-vis every aspect of the system: political, administrative, military, cultural” (Samar Sen). Hence, it is no wonder that various schools of thought gave rise to new understandings of the movement and the social system. This book is a pioneer inter-disciplinary work which probes into the Naxalite movement from the new post-structuralist, postcolonialist and subaltern perspectives. In the research papers incorporated in this book, Naxalite politics has been studied using several new theoretical tools- Lacanian psychoanalysis, Foucauldian bio- power, discourse, genealogy and archaeology, Derridean deconstruction, spectrality, postcolonial anamnesis, politics of taxonomy, sexual subalternity, luminal space, representation, subaltern praxis and others.

        Democratic Science Teaching

        Building the Expertise to Empower Low-Income Minority Youth in Science

        by Basu, S. J.

        Democratic science pedagogy has the potential to shape learning outcomes and science engagement by taking on directly issues of pedagogy, learning, and social justice. In this text we provide a framework for democratic science teaching in order to interrogate the purposes and goals of science education in classrooms globally, as well as to call attention to ways of being in the classroom that position teachers and students as important and powerful participants in their own learning and as change-agents of a larger global society. We develop three core conceptual tools for democratic science teaching, that together frame ways of thinking and being in classrooms that work towards a more just world: Voice, Authority, and Critical Science Literacy. Each conceptual tool is developed in the introductory chapters then taken up in different pedagogical and analytic ways in the chapters that span the text. The chapters present researcher, teacher, and student centered lenses for investigating democratic science education and reflect elementary through high school education, both in school and out of school, in the US and globally.

        A practical resource to develop time concepts and self-organisation skills in older children and young people.

        by Janet Pembery, Clare Doran, Sarah Dutt

        Time Matters is a practical resource to help children and young people learn about time. Time is usually taught through the Primary school years, teachers working in Secondary schools have been very surprised to discover these gaps in students understanding of calendar time, having assumed that these skills have been acquired at an earlier age. This practical resource aims to break down the complexities involved in learning about time concepts and to take into account the many different skills required which make demands on memory, numeracy, language, perceptual and visual-spatial abilities and general cognitive functioning. Time Matters includes assessments, teaching activities and strategies to reinforce the learning of time concepts. The content covers a broad spectrum of time-related subjects from highly practical skills related to teaching clock and calendar time, to functional activities to develop an individual’s ability to estimate time and organise their time effectively. This practical resource: Helps to teach the essential skills needed to carry out a range of time-related concepts e.g. telling the time on a clock. Can be used by older children, young people and adults who have learned some of the key concepts but need more in-depth knowledge, further practice, or opportunities to practise skills in a functional way. Includes case studies and the rationale for working on different aspects of time, teaching worksheets and also practical strategies and activities to develop life skills which affect us all e.g. making and keeping appointments, travelling, using calendars and diaries etc. Can be used in a range of settings including: Education, Health and Social Care
