  • India: the Weakening of the Congress Stranglehold and the Productivity Shift in India
    ASARC Working Paper 2009/06 India: The Weakening of the Congress Stranglehold and the Productivity Shift in India Desh Gupta, University of Canberra Abstract This paper explains the complex of factors in the weakening of the Congress Party from the height of its power at the centre in 1984. They are connected with the rise of state and regional-based parties, the greater acceptability of BJP as an alternative in some of the states and at the Centre, and as a partner to some of the state-based parties, which are in competition with Congress. In addition, it demonstrates that even as the dominance of Congress has diminished, there have been substantial improvements in the economic performance and primary education enrolment. It is argued that V.P. Singh played an important role both in the diminishing of the Congress Party and in India’s improved economic performance. Competition between BJP and Congress has led to increased focus on improved governance. Congress improved its position in the 2009 Parliamentary elections and the reasons for this are briefly covered. But this does not guarantee an improved performance in the future. Whatever the outcomes of the future elections, India’s reforms are likely to continue and India’s economic future remains bright. Increased political contestability has increased focus on governance by Congress, BJP and even state-based and regional parties. This should ensure improved economic and outcomes and implementation of policies.

Olahraga yang juga disebut lawn tennis ini, raket dipukulkan ke bola sambut menyambut oleh seorang atau sepasang pemain yang saling berhadapan ke seberang jaring yang sengaja dipasang di sebidang lapangan empat persegi panjang.38 2.1.2 Sejarah Tenis Pada mulanya permainan tenis berkembang dan menjadi sangat populer diPerancis pada abad 16-18 Masehi. Permainan itu dimainkan oleh kalangankeluarga kerajaan dan bangsawan dengan nama Jeu de paumme atauolahraga kepalan tangan. Permainan selalu diawali dengan teriakan tenez yang berarti main. Kata tenez itu yang kemudian diadopsi menjadi tennis dan dipakai sebagai nama olahraga tersebut sampai sekarang. Permainan tersebut berkembang dan dikenal dengan istilah royaltennis atau real tennis.

  • Reaching for the Stars: the Incredible Rise of Arvind Kejriwal Vidya Subrahmaniam Feb 25, 2015
    Reaching for the Stars: The Incredible Rise of Arvind Kejriwal Vidya Subrahmaniam Feb 25, 2015 Arvind Kejriwal, Chief Minister of Delhi. - FILE PHOTO: SHANKER CHAKRAVARTY Five years ago, Arvind Kejriwal was far from being the man of the masses he is today. The Hindu Centre's Senior Fellow Vidya Subrahmaniam, who as a correspondent with The Hindu followed Kejriwal's public life between 2006 and 2014, traces his rise from activism to political stardom. In the immediate afterglow of the Assembly election, everyone seemed to be smiling in Delhi. A friend out on his morning walk found strangers congratulating him on the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP’s) superhero-sized victory. He returned the compliment, aware that like him, they were ordinary citizens basking in the reflected glory of Arvind Kejriwal’s brilliantly executed electoral coup. As results poured in, television anchors, across channels, briefly forgot to be officious. The incorrigibly rude Arnab Goswami attempted poetry and watched bemusedly as the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson and his counterpart in the AAP warred and sparred in shayari (Urdu poetry). Visuals suggested a carnival-like mood on the streets. Delhi did not erupt in such sheer joy even when the BJP’s Narendra Modi broke a 30-year jinx to win a majority in the 2014 Lok Sabha election. The emotional, spontaneous response was reminiscent of 1977, when the all-new Janata Party unseated Indira Gandhi after the Emergency. The AAP’s victory was the sweeter for having come in the most exacting circumstances. Kejriwal had ceased to be Kejriwal since quitting as Delhi’s Chief Minister in February 2014 — after only 49 days in office.

  • ABSTRACT CLARK, TIMOTHY P. the Sea Is Empty. Fisheries and the Global Seafood Sector in the Age of Capital. a Socio-Historical A
    ABSTRACT CLARK, TIMOTHY P. The Sea is Empty. Fisheries and the Global Seafood Sector in the Age of Capital. A Socio-Historical Analysis. (Under the Direction of Dr. Stefano Longo). Within the broader sub-discipline of environmental sociology, more scholars have begun to focus on the socioecological dynamics of marine systems, coastal communities, and the seafood industry. Environmental sociologists refer to this waxing scholarship as marine sociology, or an area within environmental sociology that examines non-terrestrial socioecological problems (Longo and Clark 2016; Hannigan 2017). Increased attention towards marine issues and seafood systems is necessary because, for example, the ocean sustains food production, environmental stability, and economic security. Over the course of the 20th century, global fisheries underwent historic change due to substantive human driven withdrawals. Prior to the 20th century, many viewed the ocean as a limitless bounty of resources (Bolster 2012). However, within a period of a few decades following the Second World War, overfishing and biodiversity loss have occurred at levels that now threaten global ocean system stability (Clausen and Clark 2005). Indeed, while not all fish populations are overfished, few are what the United Nations Food and Agriculture Association (FAO) would call under-fished, or fished at a level that signals good prospects for long-term sustainability (FAO 2018). As writer and journalist Anna Badkhen (2018: 3) explains in her account of Senegalese fishers: “Entire trips go by during which the captain stares at the limp arms of his crew. The sea is broken, fishermen say. The sea is empty.” It is likely that Atlantic menhaden fishers across the United States’ Eastern seaboard issued similar frustrations as their catch rates plummeted in the late 19th century and, once-again and more damningly, in the mid-20th century.
