Title of the Project: TRAINING ON ‘APPLICATION OF STATISTICAL TECHNIQUES IN LINGUISTIC STUDIES’ 2. Brief Objective and Justification (2 or 3 sentences): The goal is to impart training in the use of statistical methodologies and tools in the study and analysis of language data to the researchers and academicians in linguistics of the North Eastern (N-E) states as well as of non-N-E states. It is expected that such a training would enrich them academically and help them in doing research on linguistics having sufficient quantitative content, and also provide them with better job opportunities. The emphasis would be on application of some of the basic statistical tools and methods in different domains of applied and theoretical linguistics. The workshop will be held at the North-East Centre of ISI at Tezpur with appropriate faculties drawn from ISI, Kolkata and ISI, N-E Centre. The Chairman of the Committee for ISI N-E Centre has agreed to extend all possible help in this regard. 3. Date of Commencement: April 2018. 4. Expected Date of Completion: March 2019 5. Names of Proposing Scientists: Niladri Sekhar Dash and Probal Dasgupta 6. Names of other Associated Scientists: None 7. Scope and Justification of the Project: Perhaps this will be the first training programme of this kind in India where the importance of statistics in research and application of language data will be discussed at length.

  • Free Trade: What Now? by Jagdish Bhagwati This Is the Text Of
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Columbia University Academic Commons Free Trade: What Now? By Jagdish Bhagwati This is the text of the Keynote Address delivered at the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland, on 25th May 1998, on the occasion of the International Management Symposium at which the 1998 Freedom Prize of the Max Schmidheiny Foundation was awarded. Ever since Adam Smith invented the case for free trade over two centuries ago in The Wealth of Nations, and founded in the same great work the science of Economics as we know it today, international economists have been kept busy defending free trade. A popular children’s story in the United States, by Dr. Seuss, has the refrain “And the cat came back”. The opponents of free trade, ranging from hostile protectionists to the mere skeptics, have kept coming back with ever new objections. The critiques we have had to confront have often come from those who fail to understand the essential insight of Adam Smith: that it pays me to specialize on what I do best compared to you, even though I can do everything better than you do. Economists call this the Law of Comparative Advantage: each nation would profit from noncoercive free trade that would lead to such specialization. When asked by the famous mathematician Ulam: “What is the most counterintuitive result in Economics?”, the Nobel laureate Paul Samuelson chose this Law as his candidate.1 Skeptics within Economics But the most compelling skeptics have come repeatedly from within the discipline of Economics itself.

  • Avinash Dixit Princeton University
    This is a slightly revised version of an article in The American Economist, Spring 1994. It will be published in Passion and Craft: How Economists Work, ed. Michael Szenberg, University of Michigan Press, 1998. MY SYSTEM OF WORK (NOT!) by Avinash Dixit Princeton University Among the signals of approaching senility, few can be clearer than being asked to write an article on one's methods of work. The profession's implied judgment is that one's time is better spent giving helpful tips to younger researchers than doing new work oneself. However, of all the lessons I have learnt during a quarter century of research, the one I have found most valuable is always to work as if one were still twenty-three. From such a young perspective, I find it difficult to give advice to anyone. The reason why I agreed to write this piece will appear later. I hope readers will take it for what it is -- scattered and brash remarks of someone who pretends to have a perpetually juvenile mind, and not the distilled wisdom of a middle-aged has-been. Writing such a piece poses a basic problem at any age. There are no sure-fire rules for doing good research, and no routes that clearly lead to failure. Ask any six economists and you will get six dozen recipes for success. Each of the six will flatly contradict one or more of the others. And all of them may be right -- for some readers and at some times. So you should take all such suggestions with skepticism.

  • How to Write a Patriotic History of the Rebellion of 1857? Rajanikanta Gupta's 'Sipahi Juddher Itihas' and Multiple Faces
    1 How to Write a Patriotic History of the Rebellion of 1857? Rajanikanta Gupta’s ‘Sipahi Juddher Itihas’ and Multiple Faces of Loyalty, Anxiety and Dissatisfaction Ramendrasundar Trivedi (1864 – 1919), one of the great essayists and literary figures in the early decades of the 20 th century Bengal, once mused over his reading experiences in early school days. At the age of eight or nine, as a student of middle Anglo-vernacular school, he came across, in a magazine called ‘Bandhab ’, an article, which stated that quite a few history text books happened to be full of lies and misinformations. A number of books on the histories of Bengal and India, mostly written by eminent English scholars, belonged to this category. He clearly remembered his reaction even after thirty years. “I considered it totally unbelievable that there may be mistakes in the history writings of any English scholar. I was unaware of this side of the human character that great scholars would have written baseless stories, due to their partisanship . Moreover, it appeared to me absolutely ridiculous that the history books which I had to cram in order to avoid the slaps of my teacher contained mistakes” 1. That very article had announced that Rajanikanta Gupta 2 (1849-1900), then an unknown person, had taken up a project to write a comprehensive history of the Sepoy War in India; it would be written in vernacular and it would rectify many misconceptions currently nurtured and propagated by the English historians. Ramendrasundar, being an avid reader since his school days, was eagerly waiting for the forthcoming book for days and finally managed to devour the 1 Ramendrasundar Trivedi’s obituary on Rajanikanta Gupta in Sahitya, 11yr, Jaishtha, 1307 B.S.

  • The Phonetics of Bengali Consonant Clusters Linda Ösp Heimisdóttir 1
    The Phonetics of Bengali Consonant Clusters Linda Ösp Heimisdóttir ∗ 1 Introduction This paper presents an acoustic study of clusters of plosives + sonorants in Standard Colloquial Bengali (henceforth referred to as SCB). One of the goals of this paper is simply to provide an adequate phonetic account of these kinds of clusters in the language since such an account does not seem to be available in the literature on Bengali. Equally important is the fact that descriptive accounts of Bengali phonotactics disagree on various issues related to consonant clusters. It is therefore a second goal of this paper to sort out these differences by collecting phonetic data. The study focused on two aspects of consonant cluster formation in SCB: (i) which combina- tions of a stop + sonorant are acceptable clusters to speakers of the language and (ii) which, if any, consonant clusters exhibit gemination of a stop in pre-sonorant position. Results show that all com- binations of stop + sonorant are licit clusters in SCB. Furthermore, we conclude that the pre-sonorant gemination of stop consonants is most likely bound to certain lexical strata in the language. 2 Background 2.1 Inventory Bengali has 28 phonemic consonants as well as 3 allophonic ones. Labial [ph] is often pronounced as [f], [z] appears in the pronunciation of some proper names instead of [Ã]. [s] mostly appears in foreign loanwords and certain consonant clusters and is interchangeable with [S] for most speakers (Kostic´ and Das 1972). Labial Dental/ Retroflex Palatoalveolar Velar Glottal Alveolar Nasal m n N p ph t th ú úh k kh Plosive b bh d dh ã ãh g gh tS tSh Affricate ÃÃh (f) (s) S h Fricative (z) H Approximant l Rhotic r ó Table 1: Bengali consonants.

  • Restoring Fun to Game Theory
    Restoring Fun to Game Theory Avinash Dixit Abstract: The author suggests methods for teaching game theory at an introduc- tory level, using interactive games to be played in the classroom or in computer clusters, clips from movies to be screened and discussed, and excerpts from novels and historical books to be read and discussed. JEL codes: A22, C70 Game theory starts with an unfair advantage over most other scientific subjects—it is applicable to numerous interesting and thought-provoking aspects of decision- making in economics, business, politics, social interactions, and indeed to much of everyday life, making it automatically appealing to students. However, too many teachers and textbook authors lose this advantage by treating the subject in such an abstract and formal way that the students’ eyes glaze over. Even the interests of the abstract theorists will be better served if introductory courses are motivated using examples and classroom games that engage the students’ interest and encourage them to go on to more advanced courses. This will create larger audiences for the abstract game theorists; then they can teach students the mathematics and the rigor that are surely important aspects of the subject at the higher levels. Game theory has become a part of the basic framework of economics, along with, or even replacing in many contexts, the traditional supply-demand frame- work in partial and general equilibrium. Therefore economics students should be introduced to game theory right at the beginning of their studies. Teachers of eco- nomics usually introduce game theory by using economics applications; Cournot duopoly is the favorite vehicle.

  • Non-Dravidian Elements and (Non)Diasystematic Change in Malayalam
    To appear in Constructions in Contact 2: Language change, multilingual practices, and additional language acquisition eds. Höder, S. & Boas, H. Title: Non-Dravidian elements and (non)diasystematic change in Malayalam Savithry Namboodiripad (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor) [email protected] Abstract: This chapter applies a Diasystematic Construction Grammar (DCxG) approach to account for non-Dravidian vocabulary and phonology in Malayalam, a high-contact Dravidian language. The distinction made in DCxG between diaconstructions, which are language non-specific, and idioconstructions, which are language-specific, proves useful in accounting for semantic specialization and phonological heterogeneity due to language contact. Notably, increased contact with English has led in some cases to decreased phonological adaptation, as some constructions change from diaconstructions to idioconstructions: Non-diasystematic change. Taken together, this chapter argues that any analysis of Malayalam must account for non-Dravidian subpatterns, and including language labels as part of speakers' linguistic knowledge enhances our understanding of the dynamics of language contact. Keywords: Malayalam, English, language contact, language change, semantic specialization, loanword adaptation, historical linguistics, sociolinguistics 1 High-contact languages are not categorically different By introducing a distinction between diaconstructions, which are language non-specific, and idioconstructions, which are language-specific, Diasystematic Construction Grammar (DCxG) captures the fact that borders between languages, while often blurred, also shape language use (Höder 2012). Building on other construction-theoretic approaches, DCxG characterizes all languages as consisting of emergent subpatterns of constructions. This includes hybrid or high-contact languages, which differ only in that those subpatterns can be attributed (by analysts, not necessarily speakers) as belonging to a particular language.
