AndYEARBOOK how do people negotiate2016 contested spaces in cities as politicised as Jerusalem? Hanna Baumann [2012] has been fascinated by the subject of divided cities since she was young. Her PhD in Architecture will build on her undergraduate and Master’s research, which focused on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict as well as on work she has been doing in for the United Nations on minority cultural rights in conflict affected areas. Hanna showed an early interest in the intersection between culture and conflict. Growing up in what was then East Berlin, she was five when the Berlin Wall fell. “In some ways, it was a formative experience,” she says, “and was part of my interest in divided cities. Even after the Wall came down I could see the long-term effects on family and friends.” “I could feel the tension in the After graduating from Barnard, Hanna returned to the Middle streets of the old city, where East to work with Iraqi refugees in Jordan through the UNHCR.

  • Indian Army: the Most Secular Institutions in the Country
    INDIAN ARMY: THE MOST SECULAR INSTITUTIONS IN THE COUNTRY Dr. Amjad Ali COGNIZABLE HISTORY It has been a widely held „myth‟ that Indian Army institutionalizes religion or caste. There are some regiments in Indian Army named after communities, and some named after regions as determined by the British rulers then. But this has a historical context and has continued as an inherited legacy. Thus, we have the Sikh regiment, the Marathas, the Jat, the Gorkhas etc. but this doesn't make any of these regiments exclusive for other communities or regions, like all other public institutions. So, it is no surprise to see a Mohammed Zaki commanding Garhwali troops or a Y N Sharma as commanding officer of the Grenadiers (which incidentally has Muslim soldiers) as head of the family, which is what a commanding officer is. It is common for a Zaki to felicitate the puja on Janmashtami, celebrating the birth of Lord Krishna, or for a Sharma to organise the namaz on Id Ul Fitr after Ramzan. It is further emphasized that Indian Army has maintained a strong secular tradition and does not believe in religion based discrimination. To the extent that strong opposition was raised over the proposal for so called „census‟ of Muslims in Indian Army. Several sections of Indian Army have also opposed the headcount on the basis of religion especially when the Sachar Panel had sought the data on Muslims share in Indian Army. Hence, there is no official report available in this regard. However, the strength of Muslim may be roughly around 2.50-3%, forming approximately 25-29000 personnel (CNN IBN).

  • “Going to Wipe Their Tears”
    “Going to Wipe their Tears” Pyarelal Compiled from ‘Mahatma Gandhi : The Last Phase’ by Mahendra Meghani First Published: December 2002 Printed and Published by Jitendra T. Desai Navajivan Mudranalaya, Ahmedabad-380 014 “Going to Wipe their Tears” INTRODUCTION The present book covers the last years of Mahatma Gandhi's life in which the results of all the experiments that he carried out throughout his career were put to their severest and final test. The author's writings in Young India and Harijan and several works on Mahatma Gandhi have well established him as a faithful and authoritative chronicler and interpreter of Gandhiji's life and philosophy. It is only in a detailed account of what Gandhiji did, how he did it and why he did it that a soul-stirring picture of his life and teaching can be found. The present work represents such an attempt by one who had the opportunity to know at first hand the events he has described and has the insight to interpret them correctly. What made Mahatma Gandhi almost unique among leaders of men was his capacity to harmonise widely different points of view so that they became contributory to the prosecution of the common goal. An outstanding instance of this was the way in which he dealt with his colleagues in the Congress organisation who differed from him. While holding to his own principle, he allowed his colleagues full scope to serve the country according to their light. As a result of this not only most intimate relations continued between them, but also those who differed from him ultimately came round and worked under his leadership.
