  • Small-Scale Fisheries Transition to Sustainable and Responsible Fishing in India - a Micro Level Study
    IIFET 2010 Montpellier Proceedings SMALL-SCALE FISHERIES TRANSITION TO SUSTAINABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FISHING IN INDIA - A MICRO LEVEL STUDY PAZHANI KANTHIAH T.D.M.N.S.COLLEGE T.KALLIKULAM [email protected] ABSTRACT Small-scale fisheries play an important role in generating employment, income and livelihood to the fisherfolk. It constitutes 81 per cent of the total fisheries sector in India. But, this sector remains neglected and the fisherfolk are socially and economically backward. Even after six decades of planned development nearly 62 per cent of the fisherfolk families do not possess crafts. Resource constraints coupled with absence of fishing and other related infrastructures in most of the fishing villages compel fishermen households to migrate to earn their livelihood. Migrant fishermen formed a new village and follow simple method of fishing, which are eco-friendly, economical in the use of fuel and gears. Their responsible fishing is useful for fishing without any by-catches and wastage of marine resources. With this theoretical background, this paper is framed in such a way to analyze the factors that contribute to the transition of small-scale fisheries to sustainable and responsible fishing in Tamil Nadu, India. Factors which hamper small-scale fisheries development have been discussed. The main focus of the study is on the impact of fishermen migration on the socio-economic status of migrants and also the sustainability of fishing operations without class conflict. Policy implications emerging in the light of the findings of the study are also given briefly. Keywords: Small-scale fisheries, responsible fishing, sustainable fishing In recent years, world fisheries have become a market-driven, dynamically developing sector of the food industry.

  • Assam - a Study on Bihugeet in Guwahati (GMA), Assam
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN: 2319-7064 Impact Factor (2018): 7.426 Female Participation in Folk Music of Assam - A Study on Bihugeet in Guwahati (GMA), Assam Palme Borthakur1, Bhaben Ch. Kalita2 1Department of Earth Science, University of Science and Technology, Meghalaya, India 2Professor, Department of Earth Science, University of Science and Technology, Meghalaya, India Abstract: Songs, instruments and dance- the collaboration of these three ingredients makes the music of any region or society. Folk music is one of the integral facet of culture which also poses all the essentials of music. The instruments used in folk music are divided into four halves-taat (string instruments), aanodha(instruments covered with membrane), Ghana (solid or the musical instruments which struck against one another) and sushir(wind instruments)(Sharma,1996). Out of these four, Ghana and sushirvadyas are being preferred to be played by female artists. Ghana vadyas include instruments like taal,junuka etc. and sushirvadyas include instruments that can be played by blowing air from the mouth like flute,gogona, hkhutuli etc. Women being the most essential part of the society are also involved in the process of shaping up the culture of a region. In the society of Assam since ancient times till date women plays a vital role in the folk music that is bihugeet. At times Assamese women in groups used to celebrate bihu in open spaces or within forest areas or under big trees where entry of men was totally prohibited and during this exclusive celebration the women used to play aforesaid instruments and sing bihu songs describing their life,youth and relation with the environment.

  • THE DYNAMICS of the DEMOBILIZATION of the PROTEST CAMPAIGN in ASSAM Tijen Demirel-Pegg Indiana University-Purdue University Indi
    THE DYNAMICS OF THE DEMOBILIZATION OF THE PROTEST CAMPAIGN IN ASSAM Tijen Demirel-Pegg Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Abstract: This study highlights the role that critical events play in the demobilization of protest campaigns. Social movement scholars suggest that protest campaigns demobilize as a consequence of polarization within the campaign or the cooptation of the campaign leaders. I offer critical events as an alternative causal mechanism and argue that protest campaigns in ethnically divided societies are particularly combustible as they have the potential to trigger unintended or unorchestrated communal violence. When such violence occurs, elite strategies change, mass support declines and the campaign demobilizes. An empirical investigation of the dynamics of the demobilization phase of the anti-foreigner protest campaign in Assam, India between 1979 and 1985 confirms this argument. A single group analysis is conducted to compare the dynamics of the campaign before and after the communal violence by using time series event data collected from The Indian Express, a national newspaper. The study has wider implications for the literature on collective action as it illuminates the dynamic and complex nature of protest campaigns.

  • The Classical Tradition in the Vaisnava Music of Assam
    The Classical Tradition in the Vaisnava Music of Assam Maheswar Neog --- www.atributetosankaradeva.org presents before the readers a pioneering paper on the Vaisnava music of Assam, authored by Dr. Maheswar Neog. It covers virtually every aspect of the music of the Sankaradeva Movement (and also touches upon other traditions of music in Assam). As is evidenced by some of its references, this paper was written in the early part of the latter half of the 20th century when Bargit research was still at a nascent stage. We have retained these references as they reflect the important milestones in the progress of research on the Sankaradeva Movement in Assam. The paper is redacted from the Journal of the Srimanta Sankaradeva Research Institute, Nagaon (2006). Editing note(s):- Diacritics has been used sparingly; only the long diacritic (macron) pertaining to a/A has been highlighted and that too, depending upon the context. --- We do not have any particular evidence to show what exact type of music was prevalent in Assam anterior to the spread of the wave of neo-Vaisnavism which was ushered into the valley of the Brahmaputra in the last decades of the 15th and the initial decades of the 16th century by Sankaradeva. We are left to our imagination in this matter; but this imagination can be based on the evidence of the writings of a few pre- Sankaradeva poets, and the song compositions of at least two poets, Mankara and Durgavara, who seem to have remained outside of the neo-Vaisnava circle of Sankaradeva. In the early period of Assamese literature preceding the neo-Vaisnava movement of the last part of the 15th century and the early part of the 16th, the Ramayana and portions of the Mahabharata were rendered into Assamese verse; and these verses were put to ragas or recited in simple tunes.

  • On the Use of Different Natural Baits for Sea-Fishing in India
    On the use of different natural baits for sea-fishing in India Item Type article Authors Balasubramanyan, R. Download date 28/09/2021 03:31:56 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/1834/31978 Fishery Technology Vol: I No. I. 1964 ON THE USE OF DIFFERENT NATURAL BAITS FOR SEA-=FISHING IN INDIA R. BALASUBRAMANYAN, Research Officer, Central Institute of Fisheries Technology, Cochin. [Rod and line, hand-line, trolling-line, and fish-traps are the different types of fishing gears wherein suitable fish baits are employed with a view to luring the catch. The coastal fishermen of India mostly use different types of natural fish-baits to catch fishes like Perches, Carangids, Sciaenids, Scombroids and Elasmobranchs. The reactions of the fishes caught to the different baits used are quite varied. Successful line fishing operations very much dep­ end on the fish-baits. A detailed record of the variety of fishes caught, types of fishing and different baits used by the coastal fishermen of India has been made.] The fundamental principles involved in commercial sea-fishing can be broadly classified under three major heads vi'z. Attacking, Snaring and Luring. The last two types of fishing alone accounts for the maximum of the total fish production from the seas. While snaring the fish-stock mo­ ving in a shoal or school with suitable designs of nets is by far the most widely practised form of fishing in India, luring the fish with a view to entic­ ing them to enter a trapping contriva nee or to bite a hook is equally popular with the coastal fishermen.
