The seeds of the origin of Social Work could be traced from global ideologies which include humanism, rationalism, welfarism, liberalism, democracy, secularism and utilitarianism. Selfish desires and human sufferings existed in societies across the globe alongwith concern for the poor and the concept of mutual assistance to protect humanity. Social work emerged from the perspectives of charity, social reforms, and social and welfare services. Local rulers, kings, queens, landlords, foreign conquerors, and elected governments across the world did initiate welfare programmes to extant the much needed care and support to the people. World religions and philanthropists too provided welfare services to mitigate, the sufferings of people. Social Work concepts in India thus had its origins in charity, reform movements, religious teachings, and initiatives by philanthropists. Although professional social work was recognized and developed by western societies, the bases on which the profession grew simultaneously existed in every continent. India perhaps has a stronger foundation in terms of philanthropic concerns. The contribution of various religions, care and support initiatives provided by local rulers and subsequently by the elected governments of the Independent India bear witness to this debate. In this volume some of the best social work professionals have presented rich evidence of the contributions made by the state which include kings, queens, local rulers and elected governments in India from pre-colonial period to the present day democratically elected government, initiatives by renowned individuals, social reforms through social movements, initiatives by NGOs, initiatives by Hindu, Islam, Sikh, Jain, Buddhist and Christian religions and the Gandhian concepts related to social work. The authors have also dealt at length about the current status of professional social work education, training, practice as well as the extent of availability of social work literature in India. The nineteen chapters presented in this volume provide adequate literature about the history of social work in India from various perspectives. This is the first ever effort by professional social workers to record the origin and development of social work in Indian sub-continent. Obligations involved in the preparation of this volume have been many. It is not feasible to adequately express the debt that I owe to the many experts, institutions and documents that assisted me to make this compilation possible. On behalf of the School of Social Work, IGNOU, I wish to express our profound gratitude to several authors from across the country who include Dr. Neena Pandey, M. Manju Gupta, Ms. Sushmita Patel, Dr. Bishnu Mohan Dash, Mr. K.K. Singh, Ms. Nita Kumari, Dr. V.V. Devasia, Ms. Manju Kumar, Prof. M.Z.

Nalini and Dr. S.R. Billore for their valuable contribution which have made this compilation rich, interesting, educative and immensely useful to faculty, scholars and students of social work. Despite the limitations, I hope that this volume will provide the much required resources to the readers in learning the history of social work in India. PROF.

Though Social Work as a profession was recognized and developed by western countries yet the bases on which the profession rests upon very well exist in the foundation of Indian history. The seeds of evolution of Social Work could be explored in world ideologies i.e. secular, humanism, protestantism, rationalism, welfarism, liberalism democracy and utilitarianism. The notion of welfare stemmed up in India in the roots of Dharma. The history of human sufferings and selfish desire too persisted in human society and so existed the mutual assistance to provide protections to humanity. History speaks volume of initiatives taken by kings, queens, landlords, foreign conquerors and invaders, and also under the system of diarchy and later under the constitutional reform of 1935 which ushered in a new era of popularly elected government in the provinces. Social Work emerged as a profession from the perspectives of social services, charity, reform and welfare. Social Work traveled a long way from welfare to empowerment and development and the present emphasis of the profession is protecting and *Dr. Neena Pandey, Ms. Manju Gupta, Ms. Sashmita Patel, Aditi Mahavidyalaya, Delhi University, Delhi. 2 Origin and Development of Social Work in India promoting people’s rights. In this section you will find details on the following: ● Initiatives by local rulers of Ancient and Medieval period ● State Initiatives during colonial period ● Post-independence state and central initiatives. Initiatives by Local Rulers: Kings, Queens, Landlords in Ancient India Strong ethical and spiritual values were part of Indian traditions since early Vedic period. The seeds of human development were served since the origin of Indian society. The spirit of social service manifested itself in various ways in different spheres of life, and inspired both individuals and organized group of people in society. Dimensions of welfare during ancient times evolved in diverse ways but we shall touch upon important phases only, i.e. Pre-Vedic, Vedic and the golden era of Gupta period. Pre-Vedic Period has been the age of invention like other societies of Europe and Greek and India has not been an exception to it. Human being’s relation with environment was existing since beginning and was the basis of survival. The society had a great deal of planning during this period introducing urbanization with planned structure and architecture. It is believed that institutions like law, custom, agriculture, religion existed and guided the people before Aryans migrated to India. People’s self initiated indigenous systems were very much at place before the Aryans arrived. Later the discoveries in 1922-23 A.D. inform about the technology used in Harappan and Mohinjo-daro in Sindh. The excellent and advanced town planning shows the acceptance of each class in society i.e. rich and poor. History of Social Work: State Initiatives 3 The designing of the house and the pattern were such that they show an advance architecture and administration which was need based. Welfare administration is well reflected through advanced and well planned public spaces, the drainage system. This provides the pattern of community life with set rules is an example of people’s friendly society. It is worth to mention that high level of respect and dignity were endorsed to women. The gender inequality has become a challenge today but it is proud to mention that high ideas of social work were practiced during Indus Valley Civilization. Not only human beings even the animals were respected. Lord Shiva has been depicted as ‘pashupati’ (lord of animals) in the architecture of this primitive civilization. The Vedic period provides life’s highest orders, which is found in the Aryan’s scriptures entitled ‘Veda’ i.e. Rigveda, Samveda, Yazurveda, Atharvaveda. It emphasized that the religious hymns and music, sacrifices and knowledge are the

Social security in India: A patchwork quilt Summary While two decades of economic reform in India have brought changes to the way in which the social security safety net operates, the country’s social and economic situation is itself a challenge to the extension of social security coverage. Over 90 per cent of workers are in the informal sector, and the income of one in five informal workers is below the poverty line. Although new government programmes for food security, health care for the poor, and cash transfers have been put in place, they are mostly ad hoc; some successful experiments failed to live up to expectations when they were scaled up. Microinsurance and micro-pensions might hold out certain promise but also face challenges.

ABSTRACT OF THESIS A POLITICAL ECOLOGY OF THE CHIPKO MOVEMENT The Indian Chipko movement is analyzed as a case study employing a geographically-informed political ecology approach. Political ecology as a framework for the study of environmental movements provides insight into the complex issues surrounding the structure of Indian society, with particular attention to its ecological and political dimensions. This framework, with its focus on social structure and ecology, is distinct from the more “traditional” approaches to the study of social movements, which tend to essentialize their purpose and membership, often by focusing on a single dimension of the movement and its context. Using Chipko as a case-study, the author demonstrates how a geographical approach to political ecology avoids some of this essentialization by encouraging a holistic analysis of environmental movements that is characterized by a “bottom-up” analysis, grounded at the local level, which also considers the wider context of the movement’s growth by synthesizing socio-political and ecological analyses.

India Abstract As regards Bahuguna’s thought and his propagation of small community based and need based approach to environment, what is conspicuous is the inherent thread of local consensus that can serve as the life blood of ‘communitarian form of environmentalism’. Its strong point is not the technological bulwark but rather it inheres in the legitimacy that such form of environmentalism enjoys. It is neither too much consumerism oriented and profligate nor it is idealistic in the sense of western copybook version of conservatism. Keywords:Environment, Social Reconstruction, Bulwark. Introduction The paper on which we shall discuss focuses on the ideas and activities of Sri Sunderlal Bahuguna (1927- till now), a well- known figure to the students of Indian Environmentalism. To put things in the proper perspective I would like to begin by highlighting a few points having bearing on the topic and which would actually help us to understand the basic framework of this research paper.

    Passage 1: Direction: Read the following Passage and answer the following questions: Gandhiji had to travel by train from Durban to Pretoria in connection with his job. Once while travelling by train, he was asked by the white passengers to leave the first class compartment and shift to the van compartment. He refused to do so. Thereafter he was pushed forcibly out of the compartment and his luggage was thrown on the platform. It was winter and he kept shivering all night. He did not go to the waiting room because the white men sleeping there might insult him further. This event was a turning point in the life of Gandhiji and he decided to stay back in South Africa and fight against this blatant injustice. 1.

  • ENVIRONMENT V. DEVELOPMENT REVISITED: CONTRIBUTIONS of INDIA's JUDICIARY to the CONFLICT RESOLUTION
    ENVIRONMENT v. DEVELOPMENT REVISITED: CONTRIBUTIONS OF INDIA'S JUDICIARY TO THE CONFLICT RESOLUTION Rahmatullah Khan*' 1. INTRODUCTION On 7 November 1990, the Supreme Court of India issued a significant Order (Writ Petition No 12819 of 1985, mimeograph copy) dismissing a petition filed under Article 32 of the Constitution by the Tehri Bandh Virodh Sangarsh Samiti [Tehri Dam Opposition Committee] and others. Petitioners had requested the Court to issue a restraint order to the Gov­ ernment of India preventing it from constructing a huge hydro-power project and a dam on the river Tehri on the ground that the dam posed a serious threat to the life, ecology and environment of the entire northern India as the site of the dam was prone to earthquakes. It was argued that expert testimony indicated that the pattern and consistency of earth­ quakes in the region were likely to have left a 200 to 300 kilometres length of fracture along the convergence boundary roughly covering the region from Dehradun on the west to the India-Nepal border in the east. Petition­ ers had good expert testimony on their side. The project had been considered by the Environmental Appraisal Committee (EAC) of the Ministry of Environment and Forests which unan­ imously rejected it on the ground that its geological and seismic setting posed grave hazards, and the accompanying ecological and social conse­ quences were unacceptable. Petitioners also highlighted the rather belated note of dissent submitted by Professor V. K. GAUR to the subse­ quent clearance given to the project by a High Level Committee of * ,Jawaharlal Nehru Professor of Environmental Law, School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi; member of the Editorial Board.

  • Mapping India's World of Unorganized Labour
    MAPPING INDIA’S WORLD OF UNORGANIZED LABOUR B A R B A R A H A R R I S S -W H I T E A ND N A N D I N I G O O P T U f class struggle is first a struggle over class and second a struggle between Iclasses, we can say that the overwhelming majority of the Indian work-force is still kept engaged in the first struggle while capital, even though stratified and fractured, is engaged in the second. India’s capitalist economy has a GDP about the size of Belgium’s, but with a hundred times the number of people and of course a radically different history. Out of India’s huge labour force, over 390 million strong, only 7% are in the organized sector. Even the term ‘organized’ is seriously misleading because only half of the 7% is unionized and in the vanguard of working-class politics.1 The union movement, despite the efforts of workers, has been exposed to the exertions of political parties, machinations of the Indian state and onslaught of employers, so becoming fragmented and failing to represent consistently the interests of organized labour. ‘Organized sector labour’ means workers on regular wages or salaries, in registered firms and with access to the state social security system and its framework of labour law. The rest—93% of the labour force—works in what is known as the ‘unorganized’ or ‘informal’ economy.2 Unorganized firms are supposed to be small. In fact they may have substantial work-forces, occasionally numbering hundreds, but where workers are put deliberately on casual contracts.

    International Journal of Law and Legal Jurisprudence Studies :ISSN:2348-8212:Volume 3 Issue 3 482 RIGHT TO PRIVACY: REDEFINING SOCIAL SECURITY IN INDIA Satya Vrat Yadav and Vasundhara Anil Kaul 1 Abstract Privacy has been defined in several ways over last hundreds of years. Judge Thomas Cooley called it as a right to be let alone. Time and again philosophers, scholars and Jurists tried to lament the difficulty to satisfy the concept of privacy. Aurther Miller in his work has declared privacy as difficult to define as its nature is exasperatingly vague and evanescent. Privacy is a sweeping concept, encompassing (among other things) freedom of thought, control over one’s body, solitude in one’s home, control over information about oneself, freedom from surveillance, protection of one’s reputation, and protection from searches and interrogations. Indian polity has been continuously debating on merits and demerits of clouding data of one and all citizens of the country through UID system ever since the concept of ADHAAR has been introduced. This UID system carry necessary biometric data, which if falls in the wrong hands can be very dangerous to the society. It’s one of the few possible consequences may be identity theft.
