  • India's Inward (Re)Turn: Is It Warranted? Will It Work?
    Ashoka Centre for Economic Policy Policy Paper No. 1 India’s Inward (Re)Turn: Is it Warranted? Will it Work? October 2020 Shoumitro Chatterjee, Pennsylvania State University Arvind Subramanian, Ashoka University https://ashoka.edu.in/ACEP India’s Inward (Re)Turn: Is it Warranted? Will it Work? Shoumitro Chatterjee, Arvind Subramanian*1 Ashoka Centre for Economic Policy Policy Paper No. 1 October, 2020 ABSTRACT India is turning inward. Domestic demand is assuming primacy over export-orientation and trade restrictions are increasing, reversing a 3-decade trend. This shift is based on three misconceptions, which we dispel: that India’s domestic market size is big, India’s growth has been based on domestic not export markets, and export prospects are dim because the world is deglobalizing. In fact, India still enjoys large export opportunities, especially in labour-intensive sectors such as clothing and footwear. But exploiting these opportunities requires more openness and more global integration. Abandoning export orientation is thus akin to killing the goose that lays golden eggs. Indeed, given constraints on public, corporate and household balance sheets, abandoning export orientation is akin to killing the only goose that can lay eggs. 1 *Chatterjee: The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA. Email: [email protected]. Subramanian: Ashoka University, Sonipat, HR, India. Email: [email protected]. This paper builds upon a contribution to the Peterson Institute for International Economics (PIIE) volume on US-India trade relations.

  • Cultural Negotiations in Health and Illness
    Diversity in Health and Care 2009;6:xxx–xxx # 2009 Radcliffe Publishing Research paper Cultural negotiations in health and illness: the experience of type 2 diabetes among Gujarati-speaking South Asians in England Harshad Keval Lecturer, School of Human and Life Sciences, Roehampton University, London, UK What is known on this subject . We know that South Asian communities in the UK have a higher risk of type 2 diabetes than white British people. Current health policy and research indicate that there are deficits in education and knowledge about the best ways to manage diet, exercise and medication within South Asian communities. There is much potential for exploring in depth understandings of the lived experience of diabetes within South Asian communities, to complement the existing knowledge base. What this paper adds . This study indicates that, as health science discourse often uses a combination of genetic, cultural and lifestyle factors to explain high rates of diabetes, there is a parallel and related construction of a South Asian diabetes risk. Using qualitative in-depth methods to explore the study participants’ experiences, it is possible to identify how health and illness are situated within complex social, cultural and biographical frameworks. It is possible to look beyond constructions of diabetes risk towards the way participants with diabetes utilise their life experience, their history and their social and cultural community to manage their condition. In doing so they demonstrate a form of resistance to the constructions of diabetes risk that can be imposed by health science discourse. This paper shows how their ethnic and cultural identities are often invoked in dynamic and flexible ways to help them to deal with their condition.

  • Narsinh Mehta - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Narsinh Mehta - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Narsinh Mehta(1414? – 1481?) Narsinh Mehta (Gujarati:?????? ?????)also known as Narsi Mehta or Narsi Bhagat was a poet-saint of Gujarat, India, and a member of the Nagar Brahmins community, notable as a bhakta, an exponent of Vaishnava poetry. He is especially revered in Gujarati literature, where he is acclaimed as its Adi Kavi (Sanskrit for "first among poets"). His bhajan, Vaishnav Jan To is Mahatma Gandhi's favorite and has become synonymous to him. <b> Biography </b> Narsinh Mehta was born in the ancient town of Talaja and then shifted to Jirndurg now known as Junagadh in the District of Saurashtra, in Vaishnava Brahmin community. He lost his mother and his father when he was 5 years old. He could not speak until the age of 8 and after his parents expired his care was taken by his grand mother Jaygauri. Narsinh married Manekbai probably in the year 1429. Narsinh Mehta and his wife stayed at his brother Bansidhar’s place in Junagadh. However, his cousin's wife (Sister-in-law or bhabhi) did not welcome Narsinh very well. She was an ill- tempered woman, always taunting and insulting Narsinh mehta for his worship (Bhakti). One day, when Narasinh mehta had enough of these taunts and insults, he left the house and went to a nearby forest in search of some peace, where he fasted and meditated for seven days by a secluded Shiva lingam until Shiva appeared before him in person.

Gurjars were a migrant tribe who came to India in the wake of the invading Huna’s in the 5th century. The History of Gujarat dates back to 2000 BC.
