  • Displaced Hindus After Partition in West Bengal1
    Südasien-Chronik - South Asia Chronicle 7/2017, S. 123-147 © Südasien-Seminar der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin ISBN: 978-3-86004-330-1 Narrated Time, Constructed Identities: Displaced Hindus after Partition in West Bengal1 ANASUA BASU RAY CHAUDHURY [email protected] KEYWORDS: PARTITION, ORAL HISTORY, KOLKATA, HINDUS, REFUGEE HOMES, SQUATTERS´ COLONY 123 The partition of the Indian sub-continent displaced a large number of people from East Pakistan (or East Bengal as it was popularly known). Unlike the relatively well-off migrants, who could sometimes recon- struct their lives in newer pastures on the other side of the border, for those who were economically not affluent, this was almost an impossi- ble feat. Many had to spend decades in refugee camps before embarking on the vision of a better life. Many could not return to their original occupations leading to a sense of alienation and irreparable occupational loss despite partial rehabilitation in jabar dakhal (squat- ters’) colonies. Refugees who have been surviving in the camps in West Bengal for over six decades and have not yet been rehabilitated are, in a sense, prisoners of the past. It seems that their life and time have been frozen within the boundaries of the camps (Basu Ray Chaudhury 2009: 2-4). This article emphasises the experiences of those displaced Hindus, who crossed the newly-constructed international border between India and Pakistan after 1947, and took refuge in the refugee camps and squatters’ colonies in West Bengal. In order to present a social history of the partition, the article captures the lives and experiences of refu- gees who lived through that "partitioned time".

  • The Myth of Secrecy and the Study of the Esoteric Traditions of Bengal
    religions Article “I Am Afraid of Telling You This, Lest You’d Be Scared Shitless!”: The Myth of Secrecy and the Study of the Esoteric Traditions of Bengal Carola Erika Lorea J. Gonda Research Fellow at International Institute for Asian Studies, 2311 GJ Leiden, The Netherlands; [email protected] Received: 5 March 2018; Accepted: 11 May 2018; Published: 25 May 2018 Abstract: As the verse chosen as a title for this article emblematically shows, esoteric movements have consistently used secrecy as a literary topos in their oral and written cultural expressions for a number of purposes. Scholars of South Asian religions, especially those in field of Tantric studies, have been scrutinizing for decades the need for secretive doctrines and a secret code-language (sandhya¯ bha¯s.a¯), mostly interrogating textual sources and neglecting the contemporary experience and exegetical authority of living lineages. In this paper, I firstly address ethical and epistemological problems in the study of esoteric religious movements in order to propose innovative methodological strategies. Then, I offer numerous examples drawn from extensive field-work and in-depth literary study of contemporary esoteric lineages of West Bengal (India) and Bangladesh, in order to discuss the local discourse on secrecy. Finally, I review previously assumed notions on secrecy in South Asian religions, and I suggest to take into serious consideration local perspectives on the accessibility of esoteric knowledge, leading to a more nuanced idea of secrecy, constantly subjected to temporal and situational negotiations between silence and disclosure. Keywords: Baul¯ Fakir; Sahajiy˙ a;¯ Vais.n. ava; Tantra; Kartabhaj¯ a;¯ sandhya¯ bha¯s.a;¯ exegesis; guru; contemporary West Bengal; Bangladesh 1.

  • Essays on Intra-Household Bargaining Power of Women in India Poulomi Dasgupta Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Virgi
    Essays on Intra-Household Bargaining Power of Women in India Poulomi Dasgupta Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Economics Djavad Salehi-Isfahani Richard A. Ashley Hans H. Haller Thorwald N. Tideman September 21, 2016 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: India, women, household bargaining, gendered institutions, labor force participation, female political representation Copyright © 2016 Poulomi Dasgupta Abstract This thesis investigates the factors that affect women’s bargaining power within the household, in India. The first chapter introduces the literature on household bargaining mostly by describing how household outcomes like children’s health indicators and expenditure pattern change with increase in resources under women’s control. The second chapter describes the conceptual framework for intra-household bargaining. It discusses the two broad topics – household bargaining models and gendered institutions, that can be used to identify avenues for increasing women’s bargaining power within the household. In chapters three and four, I analyze the factors that determine women’s power position, using data on women’s involvement in household decision making from a nationally representative longitudinal household survey (India Human Development Survey). The survey was conducted in over 40,000 Indian households, which covers over 200,000 individuals. In the third chapter, I investigate the effect of women’s labor force participation on her involvement in household decision making. After addressing the issues of endogeneity using a fixed effects model, I find that her labor market participation significantly increases her involvement in decision making process, which can be seen as a direct outcome of her increased bargaining power.
