  • State Denial, Local Controversies and Everyday Resistance Among the Santal in Bangladesh
    The Issue of Identity: State Denial, Local Controversies and Everyday Resistance among the Santal in Bangladesh PhD Dissertation to attain the title of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Submitted to the Faculty of Philosophische Fakultät I: Sozialwissenschaften und historische Kulturwissenschaften Institut für Ethnologie und Philosophie Seminar für Ethnologie Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg This thesis presented and defended in public on 21 January 2020 at 13.00 hours By Farhat Jahan February 2020 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Burkhard Schnepel Reviewers: Prof. Dr. Burkhard Schnepel Prof. Dr. Carmen Brandt Assessment Committee: Prof. Dr. Carmen Brandt Prof. Dr. Kirsten Endres Prof. Dr. Rahul Peter Das To my parents Noor Afshan Khatoon and Ghulam Hossain Siddiqui Who transitioned from this earth but taught me to find treasure in the trivial matters of life. Abstract The aim of this thesis is to trace transformations among the Santal of Bangladesh. To scrutinize these transformations, the hegemonic power exercised over the Santal and their struggle to construct a Santal identity are comprehensively examined in this thesis. The research locations were multi-sited and employed qualitative methodology based on fifteen months of ethnographic research in 2014 and 2015 among the Santal, one of the indigenous groups living in the plains of north-west Bangladesh. To speculate over the transitions among the Santal, this thesis investigates the impact of external forces upon them, which includes the epochal events of colonization and decolonization, and profound correlated effects from evangelization or proselytization. The later emergence of the nationalist state of Bangladesh contained a legacy of hegemony allowing the Santal to continue to be dominated.

Under Mamata Banerjee’s regime, unrest and distrust defines and dominates the atmosphere in the state. There is a no sphere, be it political, social or religious which is today free from violence and instability. It is well known that from this very land of Bengal, Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore had given the message of peace and unity to the whole world by establishing Visva Bharati at Santiniketan.

  • Ol Chiki Script in the UCS Source: Michael Everson Status: Individual Contribution Action: for Consideration by JTC1/SC2/WG2 and UTC Date: 2005-09-21
    ISO/IEC JTC1/SC2/WG2 N2984R L2/05-243R 2005-09-21 Universal Multiple-Octet Coded Character Set International Organization for Standardization Organisation internationale de normalisation Международная организация по стандартизации Doc Type: Working Group Document Title: Final proposal to encode the Ol Chiki script in the UCS Source: Michael Everson Status: Individual Contribution Action: For consideration by JTC1/SC2/WG2 and UTC Date: 2005-09-21 This is a revision of N1956 and N2505 and contains the proposal summary form. Introduction The Ol Chiki script, also called Ol Cemet’, Ol Ciki, or simply Ol, was invented by Pandit Raghunath Murmu in the first half of the 20th century CE to write Santali, a Munda language of India. Ol Chiki is alphabetic, sharing none of the syllabic properties of the other Indic scripts. The Ol Chiki script has received some official recognition and Raghunath has been honoured by the Orissan government. Ol Chiki has recently been promoted by some Santal organizations, with uncertain success, for use in certain other Munda languages in the Chota Nagpur area as well as the Dravidian Kud.ux language. According to the Ethnologue, Santali’s various dialects are spoken by 5.8 million people with 25% to 50% literacy, mostly in India with a few in Nepal and Bangladesh. The Ol Chiki script is used for the southern dialect of Santali as spoken in the Orissan Mayurbhañj district. While this dialect has only six vowels, the Santal Parganas dialect has eight or nine vowels. The extra Santal Parganas vowels are made by combining three vowels with the diacritic GAAHLAA TTUDDAAG.

    Typography and Education http://www.typoday.in Bringing Ol Chiki to the digital world Saxena, Pooja, [email protected] Panigrahi, Subhashish, Programme Officer, Access to Knowledge, Center for Internet and Society, Bengaluru (India), [email protected] Abstract: Can a typeface turn the fate of an indigenous language around by making communication possible on digital platforms and driving digital activism? In 2014, a project was initiated with financial support from the Access to Knowledge programme at The Center for Internet and Society, Bangalore to look for answers to this question. The project’s goal was to design a typeface family supporting Ol Chiki script, which is used to write Santali, along with input methods that would make typing in Ol Chiki possible. It was planned that these resources would be released under a free license, with the hope to provide tools to Santali speakers to read and write in their own script online. Key words: Ol Chiki script, typeface design, minority script, Santali language 1. Introduction The main aim of this paper is to share the experiences and knowledge gained by working on a typeface and input method design project for a minority script from India, in this case Ol Chiki, which is used to write Santali. This project was initiated by the Access to Knowledge programme at the Center for Internet and Society (CIS-A2K, whose mandate is to work towards catalysing the growth of the free and open knowledge movement in South Typography Day 2016 1 Asia and in Indic languages. From September 2012, CIS has been actively involved in growing the open knowledge movement in India through a grant received from the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF).

  • Determinants of Voting Behaviour in the Assembly Elections in West Bengal: Theoretical Perspective
    The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367 Determinants of Voting Behaviour in the Assembly Elections in West Bengal: Theoretical Perspective Dr. Md Motibur Rahman1 Guest Faculty, Department of Geography Rajendra College, Jai Prakash University, Chapra Email: [email protected] Rumana Khatun2 Research Scholar, Department of Geography Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh Email: [email protected] Abstract: Voting bahaviour is a form of electoral behaviour which clearly understands voter’s behaviour that can explain how and why political decision was made. Voting behaviour is also known as political psychology of the electors. The study of determinants of voting behaviour constructs a very significant area of empirical observation. Man is a rational animal in the philosophical sense of term, but he is not so rational in terms of economic and political behaviour. The study of voting behaviour displays the important facts that the behaviour of man is influenced by many socio-economic and political factors and also influences on the minds of the voters. The main purpose of the present study is to focus on the concept and definition of voting behaviour and highlight the significant factors that determine the voting behaviour in the assembly elections in West Bengal. Key Words:Assembly Election, Determinants, Electoral Geography, Voting Behaviour. Introduction Geography provides accurate, orderly, and rational description and interpretation of the variable character of the earth surface. It is that discipline that seeks to describe and interpret the variable character from place to place of the earth as the world of man (Richard Hartshorne, 1959).Geography deals with the spatial distribution of the phenomena and the processes through which such phenomena gets generated.
