    SOCIAL TRENDS1 Journal of the Department of Sociology of North Bengal University Vol. 5, 31 March 2018; ISSN: 2348-6538 UGC Approved Social Relationships Through Feminist Lens Jhuma Chakraborty Abstract: This paper endeavours to discuss two real life relationships from the perspective of two philosophers- Carol Gilligan, a renowned psychologist and philosopher and Simone de Beauvoir an existentialist philosopher. I will show how the readings of these relations become difficult from the perspectives of two philosophies. Both of them have critiqued the patriarchal top down structure like any other feminist and have explored and interpreted human relations from novel perspectives. Gilligan maintains that human beings are essentially related. Gilligan suggests that the entire relational network of a society can be sustained through care and empathetic listening of the voices of the ‘Other’. Beauvoir is an existentialist philosopher who maintains that human existence creates his/her being through freedom. One should go beyond the constraints of our contingent existence and give meaning to everyday relations through a never-ending venture of taking new projects. Keywords: Relational self, voice, empathetic listening, freedom, facticity. Introduction My paper focuses on two stories and their interpretation from feminist perspective. I am concerned with the ethical aspect of the two happenings. I want to discuss them from feminist perspective simply because patriarchal values will not appreciate the moral dilemma involved in these two stories. These are real life stories and are not a product of my imagination. The names of the characters are the only changes that I have made and the rest has been a description of what actually occurred.

  • Rural and Tribal Development
    CHAPTER-IX RURAL AND TRIBAL DEVELOPMENT Developmental Challenges in Early Years Soon after independence, both the Central and State government of Odisha implemented various poverty alleviation and public welfare Programmes for improving the standard of living of common people with focus on the poor, the marginalized, the handicapped, socially under privileged and other weaker sections like women, children and senior citizens. Free India began its journey towards progress as an underdeveloped economy. Primarily agrarian in nature, over 70 percent of people seek employment and sustenance in the agriculture and allied sectors. Further, various Programmes/ schemes were also drawn up to change the face of the rural and urban people and backward areas with improved health facilities, better and useful education, all weather connectivity through surface transport, safe potable drinking water ,electricity, sanitation and solid waste management, food security, and other social welfare measures. By working collectively, significant changes have been registered in the socio-economic scenario of Deogarh district in all aspects of development in the rural sector. Civil society groups like Women Self Help Groups (WSHGs), Pani Panchayats, Joint Forest Management Committees have set marvellous trends and examples in ushering desired results. Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) The MGNREGS is a scheme which has been implemented in every state of India through the Central Act known as Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarante Act of 2005.The erstwhile National Rural Employment Programme (NREP) and National Food for Work Programme (NFFWP) Programmes have been subsumed in MGNREGA from 2nd February, 2006. This scheme came into force in Deogarh District from the financial year 2006-07 with Central and State Government joint funding pattern in the ratio of 90:10.

    SOCIAL TRENDS37 Journal of the Department of Sociology of North Bengal University Vol. 5, 31 March 2018; ISSN: 2348-6538 UGC Approved Rethinking Kosli Identity: Language, Literature and Culture of Western Odisha Tila Kumar Abstract: Western Odisha’ once upon a time, formed a part of the ancient Koshal kingdom having its distinctive history, culture and unique salient features. The proponents of the separate Koshal state movement which is going on in the western part of Odisha have been mobilizing people and spearheading their movement along such a historic path so as to bring back their golden past and to preserve, protect and promote their rich cultural heritage. The people of western Odisha living in as many as eleven different districts not only ascertain their common ancestry but also share their common fate of being backward and underdeveloped due to ‘internal colonialism’ including state apathy and ‘coastal conspiracy’. Nevertheless, they are struggling and mobilizing forcefully to deconstruct their stigmatized identity and asserting today a unique ‘Kosli identity’, which is increasingly being recognized world over. And it is this ‘Kosli identity’ - which the leaders of the Koshal movement are using to garner people’s support and galvanize Kosli consciousness and ‘Kosli nationalism’ - the emblematic chord of the demand for a separate Kosal state. It is, therefore, that we discuss in the present article, some of the significant markers of what constitute Kosli identity in terms of a) Kosli language and literature and b) Kosli culture. Keywords: Western Odisha, Koshal, Kosli, Sambalpuri, Odia, Language, Dialect, Culture, Identity, Region, Nation, Nationality, State. Introduction ‘Western Odisha’ once upon a time, formed a part of the ancient Koshal kingdom having its distinctive history, culture and unique salient features.
