  • Nandini Sundar
    Interning Insurgent Populations: the buried histories of Indian Democracy Nandini Sundar Darzo (Mizoram) was one of the richest villages I have ever seen in this part of the world. There were ample stores of paddy, fowl and pigs. The villagers appeared well-fed and well-clad and most of them had some money in cash. We arrived in the village about ten in the morning. My orders were to get the villagers to collect whatever moveable property they could, and to set their own village on fire at seven in the evening. I also had orders to burn all the paddy and other grain that could not be carried away by the villagers to the new centre so as to keep food out of reach of the insurgents…. I somehow couldn’t do it. I called the Village Council President and told him that in three hours his men could hide all the excess paddy and other food grains in the caves and return for it after a few days under army escort. They concealed everything most efficiently. Night fell, and I had to persuade the villagers to come out and set fire to their homes. Nobody came out. Then I had to order my soldiers to enter every house and force the people out. Every man, woman and child who could walk came out with as much of his or her belongings and food as they could. But they wouldn’t set fire to their homes. Ultimately, I lit a torch myself and set fire to one of the houses.

  • Game of Thrones? – Davos, the Download
    Game of Thrones? – Davos, the download Mark Campanale, Tribe Impact Capital Fellow and Founder of the Carbon Tracker Initiative, reports back on his personal take from this year’s Davos. On arriving, you quickly come to understand that the World Economic Forum in Davos isn’t one event, but a series. Focused around the ‘official’ conference, global heads of corporations and governments gather: this is what we see covered on CNN or the BBC news networks. Outside this zone, a much larger muddle of NGO, policymakers and com- mentators gather, fighting for attention of both media and attendees. This parallel Davos is less well known, but is as jam-packed. And this is where I spent my week. The key to making Davos work for you is to learn how to navigate the complex network of parallel events, receptions and dinners. As there is no ‘programme’ to skim through, so working out where to be – and with whom - requires a good network. If fortune shines on you, attending events with just a ‘hotel pass’ (rather than the official ’basic’ at- tendance pass that can cost $50,000) can be and is often thoroughly rewarding. The schedule I created was focused on sustainability, financing the SDGs, climate change, sustainable food systems and yes - inevitably – what block chain will do to turn the world of business and finance on its head. If you like hopping between bars and hotel lobbies and dropping informally into wide ranging but thoughtful discus- sions (often with well-known public figures) then Davos is worth the hassle.
