  • Discourses of Ethno-Nationalism and Religious Fundamentalism
    DISCOURSES OF ETHNO-NATIONALISM AND RELIGIOUS FUNDAMENTALISM SRI LANKAN DISCOURSES OF ETHNO-NATIONALISM AND RELIGIOUS FUNDAMENTALISM By MYRA SIVALOGANATHAN, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Myra Sivaloganathan, June 2017 M.A. Thesis – Myra Sivaloganathan; McMaster University – Religious Studies. McMaster University MASTER OF ARTS (2017) Hamilton, Ontario (Religious Studies) TITLE: Sri Lankan Discourses of Ethno-Nationalism and Religious Fundamentalism AUTHOR: Myra Sivaloganathan, B.A. (McGill University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Mark Rowe NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 91 ii M.A. Thesis – Myra Sivaloganathan; McMaster University – Religious Studies. Abstract In this thesis, I argue that discourses of victimhood, victory, and xenophobia underpin both Sinhalese and Tamil nationalist and religious fundamentalist movements. Ethnic discourse has allowed citizens to affirm collective ideals in the face of disparate experiences, reclaim power and autonomy in contexts of fundamental instability, but has also deepened ethnic divides in the post-war era. In the first chapter, I argue that mutually exclusive narratives of victimhood lie at the root of ethnic solitudes, and provide barriers to mechanisms of transitional justice and memorialization. The second chapter includes an analysis of the politicization of mythic figures and events from the Rāmāyaṇa and Mahāvaṃsa in nationalist discourses of victory, supremacy, and legacy. Finally, in the third chapter, I explore the Liberation Tiger of Tamil Eelam’s (LTTE) rhetoric and symbolism, and contend that a xenophobic discourse of terrorism has been imposed and transferred from Tamil to Muslim minorities. Ultimately, these discourses prevent Sri Lankans from embracing a multi-ethnic and multi- religious nationality, and hinder efforts at transitional justice.

  • The Degree of Financial Literacy As a Deterministic Factor in Investment Decisions: Evidence from Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) of Sri Lanka
    Sri Lanka Journal of Economic Research The Degree of Financial Literacy as a Vol. 07(1): pp 15-44 Sri Lanka Forum of University Deterministic Factor in Investment Economists ISSN: 2345-9913 Decisions: Evidence from Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) of Sri Lanka S.R.S.D.K. Weerawansa1 and N.S. Morage2 Abstract Local retail investors at the CSE are not gaining the optimum benefits out of the market whereas, the foreign investors are gaining high profits through trading stocks. In addition, the financial literacy level of Sri Lankans is low compared to other countries. The main target of the researcher is to determine “The Impact of Behavioral Finance on Investment Decision-Making in the Stock Market and the Moderating Role of Financial Literacy: with special reference to local individual investors at the CSE of Sri Lanka”. The findings of the study revealed that a significant relationship exists between behavioral finance and investment decision-making. It was also established that financial literacy moderates the relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable. The qualitative findings resulted in a final thematic analysis which gave rise to additional independent variables and moderating variables which were suggested for future research by the author.

  • Assessment of Water Pollution Status in Uma Oya, Sri Lanka
    Sri Lanka J. Aquat. Sci. 20 (2) (2015): 31-38 Assessment of water pollution status in Uma Oya, Sri Lanka K.A.W.S. Weerasekara*, A.A.D. Amarathunga, R.R.A.R. Shirantha, N. Sureshkumar, W.D.N. Wickramaarachchi and S.A.M. Azmy National Aquatic Resources Research & Development Agency (NARA), Colombo 15, Sri Lanka *Corresponding author (E mail: [email protected]) Abstract Uma Oya, which has the highest watershed of the Upper Mahaweli discharges into Rantambe reservoir. Uma Oya may have been polluted as it drains a large portion of agricultural lands. A preliminary study was conducted from April to October, 2007 sampling six randomly selected sites to determine the status of water quality of Uma Oya as baseline data. pH, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity and turbidity were measured in situ, whereas the processed water samples were brought to the laboratory to determine using standard methods, nitrate- N, nitrite-N, ammoniacal-N, ortho-phosphate, total suspended solids and chlorophyll-a content. Many water quality parameters were within the tolerance limits for fish and other aquatic life. However, the Chlorophyll-a (19.93±10.4 µg/L) was slightly higher than the standard guidelines perhaps due to epilithic algae washed off from bed rocks under high water flow. Total suspended solids (17.87±17.96 mg/l) and turbidity (37.84±59.88) were higher than the standard limits for fish and aquatic life, indicating high suspended solids transported by Uma Oya water. Further studies are required in relation to the cultivation pattern of the water shed to get a clear picture about Uma Oya.
