  • Kuki Churches Unification Movements
    Journal of North East India Studies Vol. 2(1), Jul.-Dec. 2012, pp. 33-48. Kuki Churches Unification Movements Thongkholal Haokip The coming of Christianity among the Kukis is now more than a century. Centenary of the gospel among the Baptists was celebrated in March 1996 with a theme “Christ the Hope of the Ages” and the Evangelical Presbyterians in 2010 with “Power of the Gospel” as a theme respectively. Within the twentieth century almost the entire population had been swept by Christianity and now Christians constitute more than 90 percent of the total population. This essay discusses the advent of Christianity among the Kukis and analyse the attempts made by church leaders to unify Kuki churches. It also made an enquiry into the reasons for the failure of such attempts to church unification and its implication on Kuki society. Keywords: Kuki Church, Church Unification, Ecumenical Movement, Church division Advent of Christianity Christianity was brought among the Kukis by two main Christian missions, the Baptist and the Presbyterian. The first Kuki convert to Christianity in the then Naga Hills was Ngulhao Thomsong, who was baptised by William Pettigrew on January 20, 1908. In the Mikir Hills (Karbi Anglong) of Assam, Baptist missions first came and the churches were known as Kuki Baptist churches. Similarly, in Tripura and Burma, Christianity among the Kukis was brought in by the Baptist missions. In North Cachar Hills and Lushai Hills of Assam, Presbyterian missions first set in their foot and the churches in the Kuki areas were known as Ngalsong Presbytery. The Kuki Christians in Naga Hills formed the Kuki Christian Association in 1926.

  • Chapter 3: Review of Literature
    Chapter 3: Review of Literature This Chapter is subdivided into two sections. The 1st section explores key terms used for this study. Besides this, the researcher has analyzed multiple conceptual approaches to the study of identity whereby highlighting the imperative understanding of identity as a social construct in the process of debunking the notion that formation of identity is based on cognitive self construction thereby subsequently opening up a new forum of consciousness on the dialectics between ‘self’ and ‘others’. From Freud’s psychoanalysis (1921) to Saussure’s language representation (1949) to Goffman’s dramaturgical representation (1959) of identity as social construct, this section attempts to delve closely with useful conceptual framework as well as to trace the development of identity scholarship from available literatures. The study has also identified different locations where identities are being exercised such as culture, literature, gender, religion, sports, economy, politics, emotions, outward and inward remittance and language. These different locations have become important ‘social markers’ for the study of identity reconstruction especially in a globalizing world in general and India in particular. Literatures available on these ‘social markers’ will be reviewed. In other words, identity reconstruction will be looked at in relations to different intervening variables; how these variables contribute in determining the sustainability of tribal migrants and their identity. We will also uncover various academic texts, journals, web pages and reports of political and non-governmental agencies on the dialectics between ‘indigenous’ and ‘tribe’, who is ‘indigenous’ or ‘tribe’ or who is an ‘indigenous tribe’?. In order to unravel the conceptual definition of ‘indigenous tribe’, this study analyzed the writings of scholars such as Béteille (1981), Xaxa (1999), Risley and Gait, G.S.

  • The Church and Christian Theological Education in Contemporary China: an Edifying Visit of Delegation of Indian Theological Educators and Church Leaders
    The Church and Christian Theological Education in Contemporary China: An Edifying Visit of Delegation of Indian Theological Educators and Church Leaders In 1987 a Chinese delegation led by Bishop K.H. Ting visited churches and Christian organizations in India. Twenty-five years later, another Chinese delegation consisting of 6 members led by Rev. Dr. Chen Yilu, visited India from August 17 to 27, 2013. This visit was facilitated by the Foundation for Theological Education in Southeast Asia (FTESEA) having Rev. Dr. H.S. Wilson as its Executive Director. The delegation visited Kolkata, Serampore, Delhi, Agra, and Bangalore. The members of the delegation considered it to be a very meaningful trip as they got to visit theological colleges, churches and church organizations, thereby gaining an insight about India, in particular about the life and ministries of the Church in India, along with some of its cultural expressions. A bond of friendship was thus established between the Chinese friends and Indian church leaders and theologians. This paved the way for a reciprocal visit of Indian theological educators (represented by the Board of Senate of Serampore College) and church leaders (represented by the National Council of Churches in India) to China from November 13 to 22, 2014.This programme was again facilitated by FTESEA through Rev. Dr. H. S. Wilson.1 We are indeed grateful to Dr. H.S. Wilson for having organized these mutual visits which hold promise for ongoing fruitful partnership between the churches and theological institutions of China and India. At the same time our thanks go to China Christian Council (CCC) for having consented to host the Indian delegation and making excellent arrangements for our entire programme in China.

EDUCATION AND LITERATURE IN THE HILL AREAS OF MANIPUR DURING THE BRITISH RULE DR SHEIKHOHAO KIPGEN* Associate Professor in the Department of History, Manipur College ABSTRACT The arrival of William Pettigrew is synonymous with the arrival of modern education among the tribal people of Manipur. The British administration served as a facilitator in this process. It is an open secret that neither the Manipur Maharajas nor the tribal chieftains who had practiced a system of governance in the hills of Manipur could affect the changes that have occurred within a span of a century that is ever since the British colonialist and its missionaries set foot on the soil of Manipur. If the tribal people have reached a semblance of development, a sizeable portion of credit should go to the untiring works of the western, native and the western missionaries who have slogged in their own measure to take the tribal people to the heights of progress and advancement. The expansion of British colonial administration brought changes of unprecedented nature among the hill people. Historically, the tribal people were never within an integrated political structure or a unified administrative Original Article Original network of the kings of Manipur. It was only when the British consolidated their foothold in the valley and consequently incorporated the administration of the hill areas under them; tribal people were introduced to western education. The establishment of churches and educational institutions initiated the process of epoch making changes among the tribal society.
