    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 20, Issue 11, Ver. IV (Nov. 2015) PP 01-07 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Terrorism: Gender and Identity Dr. (Mrs.) Manjeet Hundal Head, Sociology Department S.R.C.S.D. College, Pathankot Abstract: Even in the beginning of the twenty first century with the attack at World Trade Center (America), terrorism continues to be one of the major issues, which the world is facing. In the early 1970's Germany experienced the activities of the ultra left-wing groups such as the Red Army Faction (RAF) and the Baader- Meinhof group. Spain has had the experience of Basque terrorists, Italy of the Red Brigades and Britain of the republican extremist groups such as the Irish Republican Army (IRA) in the Northern Ireland. The Tamil terrorist groups agitating for an independent 'Eelam' state in the North-East of Sri Lanka, Sikh extremists used terrorism for an independent 'Khalistan' in Punjab, India. The extremists in Punjab used extortion, bombings and hit squads to achieve their goal of an independent state. In the face of these terrorist attacks, the Indian government responded severely with torture and summary executions. Terrorism that breeds' violence, by its very nature ultimately becomes indiscriminate and unpredictable, which has an uneven impact on women's status. At the height of violence, the Punjabi women faced the terror of the Indian police by day and of the militants by night. This study based on Punjab terrorism(1978-1993) has been divided into three parts.

  • Remembering Partition: Violence, Nationalism and History in India
    Remembering Partition: Violence, Nationalism and History in India Gyanendra Pandey CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS Remembering Partition Violence, Nationalism and History in India Through an investigation of the violence that marked the partition of British India in 1947, this book analyses questions of history and mem- ory, the nationalisation of populations and their pasts, and the ways in which violent events are remembered (or forgotten) in order to en- sure the unity of the collective subject – community or nation. Stressing the continuous entanglement of ‘event’ and ‘interpretation’, the author emphasises both the enormity of the violence of 1947 and its shifting meanings and contours. The book provides a sustained critique of the procedures of history-writing and nationalist myth-making on the ques- tion of violence, and examines how local forms of sociality are consti- tuted and reconstituted by the experience and representation of violent events. It concludes with a comment on the different kinds of political community that may still be imagined even in the wake of Partition and events like it. GYANENDRA PANDEY is Professor of Anthropology and History at Johns Hopkins University. He was a founder member of the Subaltern Studies group and is the author of many publications including The Con- struction of Communalism in Colonial North India (1990) and, as editor, Hindus and Others: the Question of Identity in India Today (1993).

  • Heritage Languages Among South Asian Americans Bryn Mawr College Spring 2014 Karuna Doraiswamy Abstract* This Thesis Explores Se
    1 Heritage Languages Among South Asian Americans Bryn Mawr College Spring 2014 Karuna Doraiswamy Abstract* This thesis explores second generation South Asian Americans' relationships with their heritage languages; specifically, the ways in which these relationships might challenge current convention regarding the categorization of heritage and non-heritage learners along a linear spectrum. This thesis also examines the extent to which the decision to (re)leam one's heritage language might be considered a necessary step to earning cultural legitimacy in the diasporic community, a symbolic reclamation of one's history, or even a performative act intended to better match oneself to the dominant perception of what it means to be South Asian. 1 Introduction This section explains basic issues regarding heritage languages in general, including current definitional debates, research on childhood interaction with heritage languages, and the second generation's attitude toward their ancestral language and culture. 1.1 Defining heritage language learners English has long been the dominant language spoken in the United States, to the detriment of many indigenous and immigrant language communities. As such, there has been a *I would like to thank my advisor, Nathan Sanders, for his patience and assistance during this process.

While there are diplomatic and business advantages to such multilingualism, retaining knowledge of the home language is also thought to promote minority individuals' psychological well-being and overall ease the process of adjusting to life away from the home country (Brecht and Ingold 1998, Skutnabb-Kangas 1999).
