  • Satyagraha in Democracy: Opportunities and Pitfalls
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 4, No. 7(1); May 2014 Satyagraha in Democracy: Opportunities and Pitfalls Dr. Janmit Singh Assistant Professor Department of Political Science Sewa Devi S. D. College India Abstract Satyagraha was considered as morally rightful mean to resist unjust laws in totalitarian regimes. But there is a perspective which advocates granting scope to affirmative action by individuals and groups in democratic regimes. This may provide a channel to people to articulate their political resentment and insist for improvement where political class failed to represent their aspirations. But counterargument remains that any reform must usher from the constitutional structures and any attempt to circumscribe them would prove counterproductive as it would undermine the working of democratic structures. The analysis of various such movements in general and of Anna Hazare led movement in particular reveals that such movements act as means for the empowerment of people if continued to maintain their non-partisan nature. However, any attempt on their part to act as alternative to existing political class defeats not only their own cause but proves to be disastrous for democratic regimes. Keywords: Satyagraha, Democracy, Civil Society Movements, Constitutional, Lokpal Democracy has often been represented as panacea for all sufferings of civil society. The assumption is that system rests on choosing the representatives of the people who reflect the aspirations of society and execute them. Since constitutional and peaceful means are rule of game therefore democracy mitigates multiple cleavages existent in society. However, democracy despite all its virtues did not escape criticism. Political theorists Aristotle and Tocqueville had their doubts (Cunningham, 2005) which with the passage of time have been validated.

  • Water Matters
    Water Matters Annual Report 2017 DHAN Foundation Water Matters Perspectives, Principles and Practices of DHAN’s Water Initiatives “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way people treat the environment”. - Mahatma Gandhiji “Anyone who can solve the problems of water will be worthy of two Nobel prizes, one for peace and one for science.” - John F. Kennedy PERSPECTIVES Water and Life Water is elixir of life. Water is everywhere on our planet, in the air, in our bodies, in our food and in our breath. Without it life as we know it would not be possible. Saint Poet Tiruvalluvar wrote about the water and the impact of its presence and absence 2000 years ago in the following lines: “It is the unfailing fall of rain that sustains the world. Therefore, look upon rain as the elixir of life”. “Unless raindrops fall from the sky, Not a blade of green grass will rise from the earth”. “No life on earth can exist without water, And the ceaseless flow of that water cannot exist without rain”. “Rain produces man’s wholesome food; And rain itself forms part of his food besides”. “Though oceanic waters surround it, the world will be deluged By hunger’s hardships if the billowing clouds betray us”. Monsoons are the primary source of water for sustaining life in the Indian context. Also, the monsoon causes problems to human life here. Saint Poet Thiruvalluvar further says, “When clouds withhold their watery wealth, Farmers cease to pull their ploughs”. “It is rain that ruins, and it is rain again That raises up those it has ruined”.

The social engagement in socio-politico activities and people’s proactive participation in political agenda is also increased through social media and viral usage of networking. However, our communication process is still in its evolution and in turn its effects can be traced on the socio-economic-political life of the ‘Information Society’. Nonetheless, in a country with cultural complexity and striking inequalities in terms of access and reach, literacy, linguistic and spatial differences, it would be essential to make a study of various aspects involved while discussing the use of social media in political campaigning at a large canvas. Keywords: New media; Political communication; Social media; • After the extensive use of social media during Anna Hazare Campaigning; Internet; Technology Campaign in India and witnessing the success of the same, government and opposition political parties have also started Introduction of New media utilizing this tool to register their influence. It was more than a decade, when internet marked as a powerful In the light of above observations the present study would strive to medium of communication globally.

  • Ananya Vajpeyi Interview Transcript
    Anna Hazare and the Historical Moment A Pulitzer Center interview with historian Ananya Vajpeyi On Oct. 30, 2011 Pulitzer Center Executive Director Jon Sawyer interviewed Ananya Vajpeyi at her home in New Delhi. Vajpeyi teaches South Asian history at the University of Massachusetts in Boston. She is currently a fellow at the Center for the Study of Developing Societies in New Delhi. She is completing a book on the founding leaders of modern India. Ananya Vajpeyi: My name is Ananya Vajpeyi and I teach, I’ve been teaching for the past few years at the University of Massachusetts in Boston and I’m currently a Fellow at the Center for the Study of Developing Societies, which is a think tank here in New Delhi. And I’ve just finished writing a book about the founding of the Indian Republic and some of the ideas of the founding fathers, particularly their search for an “Indian Self” and the sources of that Self in many of India’s traditions and classical texts. So today I guess we’re talking about the couple of pieces I recently wrote on this new India blog that the New York Times has recently started called “India In ” where they invited me to comment on a major anti-corruption movement that has been ongoing in India through the Summer of 2011 and they wanted me to set it in a k historical context. Because the leader of this movement or the figurehead around whom the movement grew this summer is somebody called Anna Hazare who is a farmer in his 70s and an activist, a social activist, from Western India from the state of Maharashtra.

  • Should Government of Tamil Nadu Shut the Tasmac Shops?
    ISSUE 9 JANUARY, 2014 Dedicated to the cause of marginalized and downtrodden Volume XI Rs.10/Rs.10/---- TEMPLE WORSHIP NOW TOO EXPENSIVE FOR THE POOR Nandini Voice For The Deprived, January 2014 Page 1 NANDANAR THE “OUT CASTE” ADORED BY EVERYONE ‘Nandan’ was born in an “out caste family” in a village called Adhanur on the river banks of Kollidam in Tamil Nadu. At the age of eight years, he started to work in the farm fields of a vedic scholar in his village. The childless couple treated Nandan with affection as their own child and poured lot of affection. In return, Nandan remained a sincere servant. One day, Nandan arrived late from the farm field after finishing his daily chores. As the master was not in the house, vedic scholar’s wife instructed Nandan to go and meet his master in the nearby temple of Lord Shiva, where he was giving speech about the glories of Lord. Nandan shyly arrived at the spot and he was well aware of the fact that he was not allowed to move freely amongst the crowd of the villagers, since he was an `out caste’.So, he moved away from the crowd and stood alone, watching and listening to his master with admiration and awe. His master passionately illustrated the glories of the Lord Nataraja and concluded that a life is unfilled without visiting the temple of Lord Nataraja in Chidambaram . Nandan enthusiastically picked up those concluding messages instantly Later, Nandan fervently asked his master queries about Lord Nataraja. His master gave him brief knowledge about the Lord and asked him to chant ‘Shiva Chidambaram’ as Moola Mantra to get His blessings.

  • How Change Happens
    ‘In this powerfully argued book, Duncan Green shows how we can make major changes in our unequal and unjust world by concerted action, taking full note of the economic and social mechanisms, including established institutions, that sustain the existing order. If self-confidence is important for the effective agency of deprived communities, so is a reasoned understanding of the difficult barriers that must be faced and overcome. This is a splendid treatise on how to change the actual world— in reality, not just in our dreams.’ Amartya Sen, Thomas W. Lamont University Professor, and Professor of Economics and Philosophy, Harvard University ‘In How Change Happens, Duncan Green points to a simple truth: that positive social change requires power, and hence attention on the part of reformers to politics and the institutions within which power is exercised. It is an indispensable guide for activists and change-makers everywhere.’ Francis Fukuyama, Olivier Nomellini Senior Fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI), and the Mosbacher Director of FSI’s Center on Democracy, Development, and the Rule of Law, Stanford University ‘It was George Orwell who wrote that “The best books… are those that tell you what you know already.” Well in Duncan’s book How Change Happens I have found something better: A book that made me think differently about something I have been doing for my entire life. He has captured so much in these pages, drawing on global and national and local change and examples from past and present. But what makes this book so insightful is that at all times we are able to see the world through Duncan’s watchful eyes: From his time as a backpacker in South America to lobbying the WTO in Seattle and his many years with Oxfam, this is someone who has always been watching and always been reflecting.
