'My answer was an· unequivocal yes, for clearly if a, census is to be held at all one should take all opportunities of lllaking it complete. I therefore encouraged Mr. Scott in his endeavours to spread our census net further. 2. I applied in this case the general prinhiple stressed in the rest of India namely that the census should. graft itself on to existing-agencies moving a~ng the people, with the minimum of disturbance or incon­ venj.ence. This is not only economic~l ; it is judicious, and in a case like this trari's-border enumeration parti­ cularly so. 'For the novelty of a census questioning wj.ll be at leas~educed it not removed when it is put through agencies already familiar to the people. - . As in the rest of India, no schedules were used and the trans-bgMe¥ enumeration was carried out on the actual slips which were lat~r u&ed for sorting. A specimen is given below:- --~~-----------------------~~ -----------------------------~ 3. At India's next census the area now held should be retained and the enumeration net spread fur~her. Mr. Scott's report shows that village' lists now exist and the experience of 1940-41 should greatly c,ontribute to a wider success in 1950-51. ' 4:. Although. British India tabulation was severely curtailed and no provincial Teporta were sanctioned I was able to secure the Government of India's consent to the full tabulation for this trans~border venture. ;Even so however its scope has suffered from the Government of Indi,a's decision; for Mr. Scott having had to demit office as Census Superintendent in July, 1941 and go to other duties could not devote the time to the report which otherwise he would have been able to give. T:b,is is a misfortune; but in any case my thanks are due to him for the enthusiasm and ability he has shown in this matter since the very beginning. M. W. M. YEATTS, Census Commissioner for India.

    Deforestation in the Princely State of Dir on the North-West Frontier and the Imperial Strategy of British India

    Central Asia Journal No. 86, Summer 2020 CONSERVATION OR IMPLICIT DESTRUCTION: DEFORESTATION IN THE PRINCELY STATE OF DIR ON THE NORTH-WEST FRONTIER AND THE IMPERIAL STRATEGY OF BRITISH INDIA Saeeda & Khalil ur Rehman Abstract The Czarist Empire during the nineteenth century emerged on the scene as a Eurasian colonial power challenging British supremacy, especially in Central Asia. The trans-continental Russian expansion and the ensuing influence were on the march as a result of the increase in the territory controlled by Imperial Russia. Inevitably, the Russian advances in the Caucasus and Central Asia were increasingly perceived by the British as a strategic threat to the interests of the British Indian Empire. These geo- political and geo-strategic developments enhanced the importance of Afghanistan in the British perception as a first line of defense against the advancing Russians and the threat of presumed invasion of British India. Moreover, a mix of these developments also had an impact on the British strategic perception that now viewed the defense of the North-West Frontier as a vital interest for the security of British India. The strategic imperative was to deter the Czarist Empire from having any direct contact with the conquered subjects, especially the North Indian Muslims. An operational expression of this policy gradually unfolded when the Princely State of Dir was loosely incorporated, but quite not settled, into the formal framework of the imperial structure of British India. The elements of this bilateral arrangement included the supply of arms and ammunition, subsidies and formal agreements regarding governance of the state. These agreements created enough time and space for the British to pursue colonial interests in Ph.D.

    Afghanistan: Politics, Elections, and Government Performance

    Afghanistan: Politics, Elections, and Government Performance Kenneth Katzman Specialist in Middle Eastern Affairs March 25, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RS21922 Afghanistan: Politics, Elections, and Government Performance Summary The capacity, transparency, and legitimacy of Afghan governance are considered crucial to Afghan stability as U.S.-led NATO forces turn over the security mission to Afghan leadership. The size and capability of the Afghan governing structure has increased significantly since the Taliban regime fell in late 2001, but the government remains weak and rife with corruption. The government has struggled to widen its writ, even though substantial powers are concentrated in the elected presidency through powers of appointment at all levels. President Hamid Karzai has served as president since late 2001; he is constitutionally term-limited and will leave office after presidential and provincial elections scheduled for April 5, 2014. Several major figures—some close to Karzai and others opposed—have registered to run for president; many of their slates include faction leaders long accused of human rights abuses. Some observers are concerned that Karzai might try to use state machinery to favor a particular candidate, and he appears to have tilted toward his longtime confidant and former Foreign Minister, Zalmay Rasoul. If a run-off is needed, it is possible that the new president would not take office until some time in July 2014. Fraud in two successive elections (for president in 2009 and parliament in 2010) was extensively documented, but Afghan officials, civil society organizations, and key donor countries have taken substantial steps to limit the potential for systemic manipulation and fraud in the upcoming vote.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.16995/dscn.332 RESEARCH Drones and Surveillance Cultures in a Global World John Muthyala University of Southern Maine, US [email protected] Digital technologies are essential to establishing new forms of dominance through drones and surveillance systems; these forms have significant effects on individuality, privacy, democracy, and American foreign policy; and popular culture registers how the uses of drone technologies for aesthetic, educational, and governmental purposes raise questions about the exercise of individual, governmental, and social power. By extending computational methodologies in the digital humanities like macroanalysis and distant reading in the context of drones and surveillance, this article demonstrates how drone technologies alter established notions of war and peace, guilt and innocence, privacy and the common good; in doing so, the paper connects postcolonial studies to the digital humanities.

    Accession of the States Had Been the Big Issue After the Division of Subcontinent Into Two Major Countries

    Journal of Historical Studies Vol. II, No.I (January-June 2016) An Historical Overview of the Accession of Princely States Attiya Khanam The Women University, Multan Abstract The paper presents the historical overview of the accession of princely states. The British ruled India with two administrative systems, the princely states and British provinces. The states were ruled by native rulers who had entered into treaty with the British government. With the fall of Paramountacy, the states had to confirm their accession to one Constituent Assembly or the other. The paper discusses the position of states at the time of independence and unfolds the British, congress and Muslim league policies towards the accession of princely states. It further discloses the evil plans and scheming of British to save the congress interests as it considered the proposal of the cabinet Mission 1946 as ‘balkanisation of India’. Congress was deadly against the proposal of allowing states to opt for independence following the lapse of paramountancy. Congress adopted very aggressive policy and threatened the states for accession. Muslim league did not interfere with the internal affair of any sate and remained neutral. It respected the right of the states to decide their own future by their own choice. The paper documents the policies of these main parties and unveils the hidden motives of main actors. It also provides the historical and political details of those states acceded to Pakistan. 84 Attiya Khanam Key Words: Transfer of Power 1947, Accession of State to Pakistan, Partition of India, Princely States Introduction Accession of the states had been the big issue after the division of subcontinent into two major countries.

Its sub-group named IP6 focuses on institutional change and livelihood strategies: State policies as well as other regional and international institutions – which are exposed to and embedded in national economies and processes of globalisation and global change – have an impact on local people's livelihood practices and strategies as well as on institutions developed by the people themselves. On the other hand, these institutionally shaped livelihood activities have an impact on livelihood outcomes and the sustainability of resource use. Understanding how the micro- and macro-levels of this institutional context interact is of vital importance for developing sustainable local natural resource management as well as supporting local livelihoods. For an update of IP6 activities see http://www.nccr-north-south.unibe.ch (>Individual Projects > IP6) The IP6 Working Paper Series presents preliminary research emerging from IP6 for discussion and critical comment.
