Chci-Mellon Crises of Democracy Global Humanities Institute
CHCI-MELLON CRISES OF DEMOCRACY GLOBAL HUMANITIES INSTITUTE Curriculum #GHI2019 The CHCI-Mellon Crises of Democracy Global Humanities Institute (GHI) is a partnership formed by five universities: Trinity College Dublin, University of São Paulo, Jawaharlal Nehru University, University of Zagreb, and Columbia University. In July 2019, the Crises of Democracy Global Humanities Institute commenced its second and most significant phase: a 9-day summer institute in Dubrovnik attended by a consortium of seasoned humanities scholars and international early career researchers. This group of 40 researchers in various career stages, representing over 30 disciplines and travelling from 5 continents, met in Croatia to examine threats to democracy through the prism of cultural trauma. The programme consisted of lectures, panels, practical skills workshops, film screenings, and early career researcher presentations. One of the main objectives of the GHI was to create a living curriculum open to all. The Crises of Democracy Curriculum is based on our programme in Dubrovnik and has been designed by the GHI faculty: Balázs Apor Nebojša Blanuša Angela Butler Rosemary Byrne Arlene Clemesha Mary Cosgrove Eileen Gillooly Jennifer Edmond Esther Hamburger Marianne Hirsch Stephanie McCurry Sucheta Mahajan Aditya Mukherjee Mridula Mukherjee Jane Ohlmeyer Tomislav Pletenac Bodh Prakash Urmimala Sarkar Munsi Bruce Shapiro The Crises of Democracy Curriculum and Global Humanities Institute is supported by the Consortium for Humanities Centers and Institutes (CHCI) -

Indian J. Soc. & Pol. 06 (02):33-36 : 2019 ISSN: 2348-0084(P) ISSN: 2455-2127(O) HISTORY OF JHARKHAND MOVEMENT: REGIONAL ASPIRATION HAS FULFILLED YET AMIYA KUMAR SARKAR1 1Research Scholar, Department of Political Science, Adamas University Kolkata, West Bengal, INDIA ABSTRACT This paper attempts to analyze the creation of Jharkhand as a separate state through the long developmental struggle of tribal people and the condition of tribal‟s in the post Jharkhand periods. This paper also highlights the tribal movements against the unequal development and mismatch of Government policies and its poor implementations. It is true that when the Jharkhand Movement gaining ground these non-tribal groups too became part of the struggle. Thus, Jharkhandi came to be known as „the land of the destitute” comprising of all the deprived sections of Jharkhand society. Hence, development of Jharkhand means the development of the destitute of this region. In reality Jharkhand state is in the grip of the problems of low income, poor health and industrial growth. No qualitative change has been found in the condition of tribal people as the newly born state containing the Bihar legacy of its non-performance on the development front.

Hitotsubashi Journal of Social Studies 21 (1989) 23-59. C The Hitotsubashi Academy ASPECTS OF THE TRANSFORMATION PERIOD IN THE MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY WORLD BlpAN CHANDRA This paper deals with aspects of transformation during the transition from colonial to post-colonial societies. Most post-colonial societies set out to achieve an independent industrial economy. The question that has been raised, both theoretically and empirically, has been : can an ex-colony whose economy and society were integrated into the world cap- italist economy in a subordinate position develop an independent economy, especially on the basis of capitalism? This paper tries to deal wlth this question with special reference to India. I Among the Marxists, the most widely held assumption since the 6th Congress of the Comintern in 1928-and more recently since the works of Paul Baran and Andre Gunder Frank-has been that no independent economic development in an ex-colony is possible unless it makes a complete break with the world capitalist system and goes over to socialism. On the contrary, so long as it remains capitalist its economic, social and political subordina- tion or dependence would not only be reproduced but would become stronger and more thorough after national (political) Iiberation. In fact, the more capitalism develops and penetrates society, the more its underdevelopment. In particular, the bourgeoisie of an ex-colony following the capitalist path is incapable of undertaking the task of independent development. Such is the logic of the accumulation of capital on a world scale. At the very outset, one must acknowledge with gratitude the pioneering role of the Comintern and Paul Baran and Andre Gunder Frank and later of Samir Amin in open- ing up and analyzing the phenomena of colonialism and underdevelopment in colonial and semi-colonial countries. -

THE INVENTION OF HINDUSTAN: V.D. SAVARKAR, SUBHAS CHANDRA BOSE, M.S. GOLWALKAR, AND THE MODERNIZATION OF HINDU NATIONALIST LANGAUGE ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in History ____________________________________ By Christopher Chacon Thesis Committee Approval: Professor Robert McLain, Chair Professor Jasamin Rostam-Kolayi, Department of History Professor James Santucci, Department of Comparative Religion Summer, 2016 ABSTRACT In this thesis I argue that Hindu nationalist terminology, particularly the concepts of Hindutva, Samyavada, and national identity, modernized amid currents of globalization and neocolonialism in the early twentieth-century. In the theoretical section, I examine how systems of knowledge and power in India were directly and indirectly affected by the globalization of western modernity. In the primary source analysis section, I discuss three prominent Hindu nationalists and their ideas in support of the argument made in the theoretical section. Veer Vinayak Damodar Savarkar (1883-1966), the philosopher of Hindutva, represented the ethno-nationalistic component to Hindu nationalism and looked to cultural motifs in order to unify the “true” people of India. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose (1897-1945), the militant hero who formed the Indian National Army and outright opposed the British, contributed the aggressive discourse of nationalist rhetoric. Sarsanghchalak Madhav Sadashiv Golwalkar (1906-1973), the supreme leader of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), utilized Hindu nationalist rhetoric in order to mesmerize post-independence Indians and lay the foundation for the future of the RSS. Although these individuals represented a current within Indian nationalist history, their lives and literature influenced the language of Hindu nationalism. -

Development with Democracy for the Post Colonial South: from Dependancy to Globalisation
Development with Democracy for the Post Colonial South: From Dependancy to Globalisation Aditya Mukherjee Jawaharlal Nehru University Paper read at Institute of Advanced Study, University of Sao Paulo, Brazil 25-26 June 2012 The revisionist view of colonialism which seeks to portray colonialism in a positive light has now become once again fashionable. This is particularly true for countries which in recent years have been doing very well, countries in East, South East and South Asia such as China, South Korea, Indonesia and India. Surprisingly, the view that is now being argued is that the current success of this region is closely connected with the colonial experience. It is suggested that it is the colonial opening up, which created the conditions for the economic take off in these countries. A peculiar argument has emerged which tries to claim the credit for the current success of this region to their colonial past. By a virtual sleight of hand, the two processes of globalization one under colonialism, between the 16th and the 19th century, and the other after the Second World War adopted by independent nation states are conflated. The fact that in the colonial period there was an enormous movement of labour and capital, and an enormous expansion of trade is being conflated with a similar expansion, in fact in some ways even a larger expansion, of trade and movement of capital that was witnessed in the 20th century especially since the 1960s. No mention, of course, is made of the fact that in the later phase labour did not move as easily as it used to move in the early colonial phase or of the fact that the earlier process occurred under colonial hegemony for colonial purposes while the latter process was essentially mediated through independent nation states in a vastly changed global capitalist system.1 In this colonial understanding, the “bad” phase in the post-colonial countries like India was the nationalist, ‘protectionist’ phase which attempted to un-structure colonialism and promote national development.
