It gave us an impetus to re-examine our evidence and assumptions while also exposing aspects or facets of what we have missed or need to give more attention. It is as Giles Deleuze said, ‘There’s no need to fear or hope, but only to look for new weapons’. The flow of events will keep flowing: providing us with a perennial source of the New while reminding us of the Old, baffle us sometimes and will always try to elude our understanding. It is with an acceptance of events that we must take stride in our endeavours. In an attempt of understanding our social phenomena must begin with both acceptance and wonder; at least that is how I have approached my studies. In this edition of Contemporary Social Scientist, we have compiled a variety of ‘Lines of Understanding’, which we hope will assist the reader in his/her understanding and help her/him make a better sense of the world. The media ecology and its powerful effect of narratives; how women empowerment through legislation has actually changed social consciousness; the rising mental issues among the youth; the Mizo social structure; what the youth looks for on the internet; and many more have been put under the lens in this edition. I would like to keep on record my appreciations to Prof. R.K. Mohanty, Head, and Department of Sociology for having walked the editorial journey together in getting both the 2018 issues of this journal printer ready. It is with goodwill and optimism that I present to you yet another edition of the Contemporary Social Scientist. Wishing all a meaningful new year 2019 in advance.

  • Nandini Sundar
    Interning Insurgent Populations: the buried histories of Indian Democracy Nandini Sundar Darzo (Mizoram) was one of the richest villages I have ever seen in this part of the world. There were ample stores of paddy, fowl and pigs. The villagers appeared well-fed and well-clad and most of them had some money in cash. We arrived in the village about ten in the morning. My orders were to get the villagers to collect whatever moveable property they could, and to set their own village on fire at seven in the evening. I also had orders to burn all the paddy and other grain that could not be carried away by the villagers to the new centre so as to keep food out of reach of the insurgents…. I somehow couldn’t do it. I called the Village Council President and told him that in three hours his men could hide all the excess paddy and other food grains in the caves and return for it after a few days under army escort. They concealed everything most efficiently. Night fell, and I had to persuade the villagers to come out and set fire to their homes. Nobody came out. Then I had to order my soldiers to enter every house and force the people out. Every man, woman and child who could walk came out with as much of his or her belongings and food as they could. But they wouldn’t set fire to their homes. Ultimately, I lit a torch myself and set fire to one of the houses.

Carrying capacity is a concept that has been extensively applied in tourism and leisure studies since the 1960s, but its appearance can be date back to the 1930s. It may be viewed as an important thought in the eventual emergence of sustainability discussion, it has become less important in recent years as sustainability and its associated concepts have come to dominate planning on the management of tourism and its impacts. But the study of carrying capacity analysis is still an important tool to know the potentiality and future impact in tourism sector. Thus, up to some extent carrying capacity analysis is important study for tourist destinations and states like Mizoram. Mizoram is a small and young state with few thousands of visitors that visit the state every year.

Thangtungnung North East India is a hotspot of identity crisis and ethnic divisions. The Chin, Kuki, Zomi and Mizo tribes who are collectively known as Zo people are no exception. They have close cultural, lingual and religious affinities and a com- mon ancestor called Zo. Historically, they have different theories of origin and migration based on their folklores, folktales and songs narrated down from one generation to another. The different origin theories like the Khul/Chhinlung or Cave origin theory, Chin Hills origin theory and Lost tribe (Manmasi) theory are among the most significant theories so far which speak, to some extent, some- thing about their history and origin. Of late, the Lost Tribe theory has gained momentum which claims that the Zo tribes are among the ten lost tribes of Israel, particularly from the tribe of Manasseh. Israeli Chief Rabbi Shlomo Amar had recognised them as descendents of Israel in 2005, which was also approved by the Israeli government. Many have consequently immigrated to the ‘Holy Land’. In this backdrop, this paper is attempts to critically analyse and assess the ethnic origin of the Zo people with special reference to the lost tribe theory. Based on cultural and oral traditions, and Biblical sources, it also attempts to support that the Zo people are the ten lost tribe of Israel by substantiating various arguments to validate this origin theory. Keywords: Zo, Khul origin theory, Chin Hills theory, Lost tribe, Manmasi Introduction The Zo people are indigenous tribes of Manipur and Mizoram in Northeast India, Bangladesh and Chin State of Myanmar.
