Intrigued by the public, military, and political reluctance to condemn the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) for their individual and collective violence against Palestinians, this research presents the artificial and multifaceted construction of a professional, non-threatening, and humanitarian military subjectivity as a material and symbolic figure that constrains local and international dissent against the Israeli military.

    WOMEN IN COMBAT ARMS1 OF THE ARMY; A POSSIBILITY OF THEIR INDUCTION A DISSERTATION BY BRIGADIER CHARANJEEV MANJU,SM,VSM (ROLL NO. 4521) GUIDE : DR KUSUM LATA INDIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION I P ESTATE, RING ROAD, NEW DELHI-110002 45TH ADVANCED PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMME ON PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION 2019-20 I ACKNOWLEDGEMENT 1. My sincere thanks and gratitude to all those who assisted me in conceptualizing, writing and finally completing this dissertation. I am deeply indebted to my guide and mentor, Dr Kusum Lata, who was helpful at each stage of this Herculean task by supporting me and giving me ideas and constantly guided me. It was indeed a great experience working on this subject as it provided me immense satisfaction. 2. I wish to place on record my sincere thanks to all those colleagues, women officers who gave me an insight into the issues being faced by the women officers and also the organization constraints, which helped me understand both the perspectives. Aspirations are there with every individual but they have to be met by keeping the organization constraints in mind, the efforts to meet the aspirations have to be sincere and genuine for overall good of the organization. 3. The interactions with various stake holders, the male officers and the women officers helped me understand the subject better. These interactions gave me first- hand information about their views, problems, sate of morale and their aspirations. The Honorable Supreme Court’s judgment dated 17 Feb 2020 has met most of the aspirations of the women officers but I have tried to highlight certain issues which, if addressed, can lead to better working environment and increase the effectiveness of the organization.
