  • (Dr) Utpal K Banerjee
    About the Book IGNCA is a treasure-trove of cultural artifacts including a rich repository of Video documentaries (published) and Audio and Video DVDs (unpublished). This book – based on the author’s two-year project -- envisions an on-line A-V cultural archive KALASAMPADA that consists of A-V materials stored at IGNCA for the categories of: Interviews; Ritual Documentation; Archaeological Sites and Walk-through; Events; Festivals; Performances (music-dance-theatre-puppetry-mime); Lectures; Seminars; and Workshops. In order to make such a wide variety of materials available on-line – initially on the Intranet, subsequently on a potential Extranet, and eventually (although very selectively) on the Internet – the following digitisation road-map is observed in the project: Conversion of primary A-V materials from analogue to digital format; Creation of data sheets for metadata tagging, following the international standard of Dublin Core Metadata Element Set (DCMES); Integration of metadata with primary A-V material in IGNCA’s Intranet; Access and retrieval by “simple search” with keywords for casual browsers and “advanced search” for users, researchers and scholars with reference to groups of keywords from the intranet. The objectives of the project of on-line A-V cultural archive are: to bring it into public domain; to make it inter-active for scholars; and to make it internationally compatible. Basic advantages of such a project are really five-fold. First, a digital A-V archive assures the near permanent durability of the A-V material. Secondly, it allows need-based quality enhancement. Thirdly, an archive of this kind makes room for highly economic storage of vulnerable Audio and Video files.

KHAM KHAN SUAN † Th e federal fact is central to the understanding of contemporary Indian politics. Federalism has imparted resilience to Indian democ- racy. Traditionally, the concept of federalism involved relationships between central governments and federated units. Defi ned in legal- constitutional terms as diff erent power distributions between the central government vis-à-vis the states and local governments, they typically limited relationships to those between governments, notably between various actors in the executive branch. Going beyond this classic framework of inter-governmental relations, in this survey, we attempt to draw out the complexities of interaction between levels of government. Th e positive trend that we discern in this survey is a movement from federalism as a structure to federalism as a multilevel government process.

Human rights in Pakistan Administered Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan Role of Hindutva in the Kashmir Annexation The annexation of Kashmir has long been a Hindutva priority; the abrogation of Article 370 was a key plank of the Bharatiya Janata Party’s election platform as early as 1989.1 In June 2019, the meeting agenda of the apex decision-making body of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) included the abrogation of Article 370.2 On August 5, when the Hindu nationalist BJP’s announced the nullification of 370 took place, top Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and VHP leaders welcomed the decision quickly.3 The annexation has complex political and symbolic ramifications in Hindutva’s discursive landscape Territory India, Pakistan, and China all control some territory in the region, with India controlling the largest part.4 The annexation of Kashmir and deployment of tens of thousands of additional soldiers in the region— can be read as an assertion of the regional dominance of a “Hindu superpower”5 against its adversaries.

  • Inde Du Nord1
    Cité de la musique 1 L’Inde du Nord Traditions hindoustanies programme Jeudi 20, vendredi 21, samedi 22 et dimanche 23 mars 2003 Vous avez la possibilité de consulter les notes de programme en ligne, 2 jours maximum avant chaque concert : www.cite-musique.fr La découverte des Indes « fabuleuses » des XVIe et XVIIe siècles frappa durablement l’imaginaire collectif occidental. Depuis, maintes fois décrite comme une terre de diversité, de contrastes et de paradoxes aux richesses infinies, l’Inde n’a cessé de fasciner. Sa culture musicale, fortement imprégnée d’une ancestrale pensée religieuse, a su préserver un héritage prestigieux tout en s’enrichissant régulièrement d’apports exogènes. La musique jouée au XIIIe siècle à la cour du Sultan de Delhi était alors essentiellement importée d’Asie centrale. Par un lent processus d’intégration et d’assimilation 2 réciproques, des générations de musiciens iraniens, turcs et hindous développèrent une culture musicale syncrétique, issue des mondes persan et indien. C’est ce formidable métissage qui permit aux instruments, aux formes et aux répertoires de s’enrichir mutuellement, en donnant corps à une culture hindoustanie qui allait devenir en Occident, dans le courant du XXe siècle, l’ambassadrice des « musiques du monde ». ’Inde du Nord - Traditions hindoustanies Traditions - ’Inde du Nord L Jeudi 20 mars - 20h Salle des concerts Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia, flûte bansuri Subhankar Banerjee, tabla Bhawani Shankar, pakhavaj Rupak Kulkarni, flûte bansuri 3 programme jeudi 20 mars - 20h Durée du concert : 2h Avec le soutien de l’Ambassade de France en Inde et de l’Indian Council for Cultural Relations Hariprasad Chaurasia Né en 1939, Hariprasad Chaurasia aurait dû, en bonne logique, reprendre le métier de son père, qui était lutteur.
