Piloting Knowledge Swaraj: a Hand Book on Indian Science and Technology Piloting Knowledge Swaraj: A hand book on Indian Science and Technology Edited by C. Shambu Prasad Xavier Institute of Management Bhubaneswar [email protected] For Knowledge In Civil Society (KICS) – Centre for World Solidarity i | Piloting Knowledge Swaraj March 2011 Acknowledgements This handbook would not have been possible without the active support of so many individuals and organisations. The SET DEV project has benefitted from several national and international networks and collaborations. Alfonso Alfonsi and Danielle Mezza of LSC have been very supportive of the ideas, many of them unconventional, at every stage and we are happy that they could interact with many of our case study leaders and be part of some of the focus group discussions. Axel Carlberg participated actively and enthusiastically in helping us think about medical ethics. Wiebe Bijker from the University of Maastricht has been a source of great inspiration throughout the project and as a member of the case advisory committee has made valuable inputs into earlier drafts. Thomas Mougey, a student of Wiebe Bijker at the Maastricht University did his internship at KICS-CWS and contributed significantly through analysis the bio-ethics literature. Andrei Kuznetsov provided valuable inputs and feedback of a draft document that was sent in November 2010. We thank all our international partners for their valuable contributions. Haribabu, Prajit Basu and Kulkarni from the University of Hyderabad were quite generous with their time and for taking the leap in having faith in the “non-academic” case study leaders to take the exploration of the Indian manifesto by practitioners from civil society organisations. Haribabu also contributed as a member of the advisory team and Prajit Basu was more than willing to think along with the medical ethics case study team offering very gracefully to put the practitioners upfront in the few academic seminars that ensued as a result of the case study. Kavitha Kuruganti helped us significantly with the editing of the case studies and actively participating in the workshops and electronic communications that led to this handbook. We owe a lot to her persistent efforts. Administering the case studies and managing them was done with remarkable efficiency by the CWS team ably led by Dr Gnana Prakasam and Soma Sastry who were extremely supportive in ensuring that at no point administrative matters, even knotty ones, ever came in the way of the process and they were more than willing to walk the extra mile to make things happen. We do owe a lot to CWS for taking on this rather complex process in a short time and for offering their facilities and hospitality for all the discussions. Kameswara Rao, Srinivasa Rao, Prakash, Bhagirath and Sumedha played important roles in helping us throughout the consultations and discussions. Our case study leaders were from diverse fields with different kinds of expertise. This handbook would not have been possible without their active collaboration. Working with them has helped us understand what it means to socialise science in ways that we would have never been able to glean from any of the academic literature. They challenged expertise, and were willing to be challenged too, and agreed to share their findings in an open and transparent manner thus bringing meaning and life to issues of knowledge and democracy. There were surprises in the process and we were happy that those that we drew from outside our KICS network in some aspects performed better. We thank Dr Prakash and Kameswari and their veritable ecosystem of the medical ethics team, Radha Kunke and John D Souza for the sustainable built environment case; Ramachandrudu, Chitra Krishnan and Ramamohan for the water case study that feature in this book. Walter Mendoza and John D Souza worked on the focus group and climate change case study and Chandra Sekhar, Ramanjaneyulu and Dr N K Sanghi on the consultative workshop and case study on knowledge issues in sustainable agriculture. KICS members played important roles in the process at various times – Rama Melkote as a case advisory member, Sreekumar, Annapurna and Syama Sundari offered to work on cases on handlooms and energy but were preoccupied, Himanshu Thakkar and Dinesh Mishra made important contributions to the reconstruction and water case studies. Shravani Roy as a research associate of KICS at Bhubaneswar and Murali Karnam as a programme officer of KICS played important parts at critical stages of the case study processes and we thank them for their efforts. This handbook we hope will inspire other efforts and would not have been possible without the vision, mentorship and guidance of M V Sastri who was always there to steer and guide us through many difficulties we had to face with such a complex and at times ambitious exercise ensuring that we travelled together despite differences. We would like to dedicate this collective effort, incomplete though it might be to Sastri garu.

  • The Synagogues of Kerala: Their Architecture, History, Context, and Meaning
    The Synagogues of Kerala: Their Architecture, History, Context, and Meaning by Jay Arthur Waronker This thesis/dissertation document has been electronically approved by the following individuals: MacDougall,Bonnie Graham (Chairperson) Chusid,Jeffrey M. (Minor Member) THE SYNAGOGUES OF KERALA, INDIA: THEIR ARCHITECTURE, HISTORY, CONTEXT, AND MEANING A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Jay Arthur Waronker August 2010 ©2010 Jay Arthur Waronker ABSTRACT This thesis sets out to record for the first time the architectural history of the functioning, decomissioned but still standing, and lost synagogues in the southernmost Indian State of Kerala on the Malabar Coast. Throughout India, there are today thirty- five existing or former Jewish houses of prayer, built by distinct communities of Jews, dating from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, and the oldest ones are in Kerala. Early Kerala synagogues, realized during the eleventh through the mid-sixteenth century, no longer exist. The Kerala Jewish community, who are believed to have first settled in and around the ancient port town of Cranganore near the Arabian Sea, suffered rounds of persecution during the medieval and early modern periods. In the process, the Jews had to abandon previously built synagogues. Shifting to various places just outside of Cranganore, the Kerala Jews built new synagogues. While some of these houses of prayer likewise do not survive since the Jews remained in locations temporarily or this newer round of synagogues were also attacked and destroyed by hostile human or natural forces, fortunately synagogue construction from the mid-sixteenth century onwards still stands – albeit often in altered states.

  • Dakshinachitra Has a Collection of 18 Authentic Historical Houses with Contextual Exhibitions in Each House
    DakshinaChitra has a collection of 18 authentic historical houses with contextual exhibitions in each house. All the houses bought and reconstructed at DakshinaChitra had been given for demolition by their owners. The authentic homes in a regional vernacular style are purchased, taken down, transported and reconstructed by artisans ( Stapathis) of the regions from where the houses came.

  • Maharajas' College, Ernakulam to Launch India's
    MAHARAJAS’ COLLEGE, ERNAKULAM TO LAUNCH INDIA’S FIRST CERTIFICATE PROGRAMME ON “INTANGIBLE HERITAGE TOURISM”(CPIHT) 1. Continuous disasters during the past three years, including the Kerala Floods (2018 and 2019) and the current Pandemic Covid 19 (2020), has affected the tourism industry in India. It is under pressure to adapt itself to meet the many new challenges. It is the right time for a paradigm shift in our approach to heritage. We need to look beyond the traditional tangible aspects of heritage towards intangible heritage, with its resilience power and extensive use of the digital medium. 2. At this stage, it is appropriate that, Maharajas' College, Ernakulam, is going to bring under one umbrella the two sectors - Heritage (Intangible) and Tourism - by launching a Certificate Programme on “Intangible Heritage Tourism” (CPIHT)- the first of its kind in India. It offers exposure of students to the fundamental principles of heritage especially intangible heritage as well as tourism with local case studies of resilient heritage and responsible tourism. The fact that Kerala has 4 out of the 13 UNESCO Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage subscribed from India will be of advantage in this regard. 3. All the activities of the Program will be arranged online, binding to the Covid protocols. The Program consisting of 60 hours will be completed in 6 months. There will be weekly sessions of 4 Hours which will be scheduled on Saturdays. There is no age bar. A Bachelor’s degree from any University in India or abroad approved by UGC is the eligibility for applying. 4.
