  • Facets-Of-Modern-Ceylon-History-Through-The-Letters-Of-Jeronis-Pieris.Pdf
    FACETS OF MODERN CEYLON HISTORY THROUGH THE LETTERS OF JERONIS PIERIS BY MICHAEL ROBERT Hannadige Jeronis Pieris (1829-1894) was educated at the Colombo Academy and thereafter joined his in-laws, the brothers Jeronis and Susew de Soysa, as a manager of their ventures in the Kandyan highlands. Arrack-renter, trader, plantation owner, philanthro- pist and man of letters, his career pro- vides fascinating sidelights on the social and economic history of British Ceylon. Using Jeronis Pieris's letters as a point of departure and assisted by the stock of knowledge he has gather- ed during his researches into the is- land's history, the author analyses several facets of colonial history: the foundations of social dominance within indigenous society in pre-British times; the processes of elite formation in the nineteenth century; the process of Wes- ternisation and the role of indigenous elites as auxiliaries and supporters of the colonial rulers; the events leading to the Kandyan Marriage Ordinance no. 13 of 1859; entrepreneurship; the question of the conflict for land bet- ween coffee planters and villagers in the Kandyan hill-country; and the question whether the expansion of plantations had disastrous effects on the stock of cattle in the Kandyan dis- tricts. This analysis is threaded by in- formation on the Hannadige- Pieris and Warusahannadige de Soysa families and by attention to the various sources available to the historians of nineteenth century Ceylon.

  • Medicalization of Pregnancy and Childbirth in Sri Lanka Chandani
    Medicalization of Pregnancy and Childbirth in Sri Lanka Chandani Liyanage1 Whether the pregnancy and childbirth is a normal event or only a biomedical condition, is yet to be resolved with clear-cut definitions. In the context of Sri Lanka, it had been totally managed by the lay people till the ultra modern science and technology assumed control. Till the gradual shifting of the deal to the hands of experts took place, the event of pregnancy and childbirth was engulfed by a whole network of relations, values, local beliefs and knowledge system. The magnanimity of the expert is such that by now it has become a medicalized issue even in the remote areas. The transfiguration of pregnancy and childbirth is not simply a metaphor for shifting from one institutional site (family and traditional birth attendant) to another (hospital), but also symbolized as a transition of knowledge system regarding the body in general and women’s reproductive body in particular. The objectives of this paper are to explore as to how the event of pregnancy and childbirth has become a medicalized issue even within the village space; how has the transition took place from a totally lay knowledge management to a medicalized issue and what will be the position of already existing and the heretofore knowledge of this subject as against the ensuing medicalize process. Empirical evidence of this study clearly reflects the lack of attention to the social and cultural factors which has not only led to the virtual extinction of the traditional knowledge system, but also to the modern system being deprived of an opportunity for a grand success by incorporating certain constructive traditional aspects.

The Rapid Integrated Assesment (RIA) is a first step in the process of aligning the country,s national development plan or public Investment programme with SDGs and RIA reveals an uneven alignment between the policy initiatives in the 2017 -2020 Public Investment Programme and the SDG target areas for the economy as (84%) people (80%) planet (58%) peace (42%) and partnership (38%). 2. After deducting debt repayments, the Government has allocated Rs. 440,787 million or 18 percent out of the total national budget of Rs. 2,997,845 million on major projects which identified major targets of relevant SDGs in the year 2018. 3.

My intention is to divide it into a number of Volumes such as 'Hela Derana Vaga' (the story of the land of the Sinhalese-Helese), Hela Avurudu Vaga (the story of the Hela New Year), Hela Gam Nam Vaga (the story of the village names of the Helese), Hela Dev Vaga (the story of the Hela Gods), Hela Bas Vaga (the story of the Hela Language), Rukliya Vaga (the story of the trees and creepers) Sat Vaga (the story of animals), Siruru Vaga (the story of the human body), Do Satara Vaga (the story of Astrology) Keli Vaga (the story of our games) Na Siya Vaga (the story of relationships). Hela Derana Vaga is the first in that series. Since it is bulky in terms of facts and size, I thought of having it published as a separate book.
