  • World Bank and ADB's Role in Privatizing Water In
    World Bank and ADB’s Role in Privatizing Water in Asia By P. Raja Siregar /KAU- Indonesia Introduction An estimated 1.1 billion people in the world do not have access to safe water; 2.4 billion in the world do not have access to adequate sanitation. The poor, especially in developing countries, have suffered most from water shortages. In many developing countries, the majority of poor villages and urban slums are not yet served by the piped water system. Often, alternative water sources of the poor are polluted rivers, lakes and shallow hand-dug wells. Some are dependent on street vendors, which costs more than paying fees for piped water. Middle class consumers in many countries pay subsidized rates, becoming burdens to government and preventing the expansion of water infrastructure for the poor. The World Bank and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) themselves recognized that the poor suffers most from water shortage. The Bank also agrees there is need to take urgent action to conserve water and meet the water needs of various users. Extending access to clean water for the poor and improving water management has, in fact, been used as the main campaign of the World Bank and as the basis for ADB’s water policies. Unfortunately, these very water policies already spell more harm for the poor and forebode greater degradation of the world’s diminishing water resources. The World Bank’s water privatization policy The World Bank initiated water sector reforms aim primarily at privatizing water utilities and commercializing water resources. The water privatization policy of the World Bank articulated in a 1992 paper entitled “Improving Water Resources Management” proceeds from the belief that water availability at low or no cost is uneconomical and inefficient.

  • CASTE and ETHNICITY in SOUTH INDIA: a CASE STUDY of the KONKANI PEOPLE in KOCHI This Article Attempts to Present the Problem Of
    „Etnografia Polska”, t. LXIV, 2020, z. 1–2 PL ISSN 0071-1861 DOI: 10.23858/EP64.2020.009 ALINA KACZMAREK-SUBRAMANIAN Institute of Archeology and Ethnology, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw CASTE AND ETHNICITY IN SOUTH INDIA: A CASE STUDY OF THE KONKANI PEOPLE IN KOCHI INTRODUCTION This article attempts to present the problem of caste in the 2010s as a part of contemporary transformations and related issues based on the findings of impor- tant sociological and anthropological studies (ethnic awareness of caste, Barnett 1975; ethnicization of caste, Fuller 1996; caste as social group and social practice, Natrajan 2005, 2012a, 2012b; performative and changing phenomenon, Reddy 2005). It focuses on a case study of the Konkani people who inhabit the city of Kochi in southern India1. Kochi lies within the district of Ernakulam in the state of Kerala. Cochin2 is the post-British name of the city, while the current official name is Kochi. The source of information herein presented on the Konkani in Kochi3 is that of fifty in-depth ethnographic interviews, field notes, and other materials – along with experiences from participant observations arising from field research I was con- ducting in 2014–2018. My interlocutors had Konkani origin and spoke more or less Konkani language. I conducted interviews in the homes of the respondents, with a few exceptions, as when they were conducted at the interlocutor’s workplace, at school, in a shop, or institution. My friend, a member of the caste named Goud Saraswat (who will be described further), often helped me find interlocutors. I found some of them also by accident, while talking to the inhabitants of Kochi and find- ing out who knows the Konkani language, although the language we spoke was the language of education and administration in Kerala, which is English.
