These are not only troubling times, but also, more crucially, failing times. Some of the hitherto sustaining and nourishing sources such as democracy, liberal ideas, economy, spirituality, dialogue and solidarity all, more or less, seem to be failing us. Or, maybe we are failing them. It can be argued that one should not confine oneself to measuring success or failure. There may be significance in both of them. Equally, the notion of significance itself is under severe assault. To understand and explore failure, ‘Aroop’ journal of arts and ideas, requested the eminent social thinker Ananya Vajpeyi (who is deeply interested in contemporary forms of creativity and imagination) to guest-edit an issue on ‘Failure’. The next issue, also under her guest-editorship, would explore ‘Future’. The Raza Foundation is happy that Dr. Vajpeyi has gathered substantial material which reveals the multiple, complex and illuminating ways in which some of most interesting minds from varied disciplines view failure both in personal terms and in the broader imaginary and reality. 5 6 Guest Editor's Note FAILURE Ananya Vajpeyi In Hind Swaraj, Mahatma Gandhi delineated two currents of human culture in history: sudharo “the appropriate way”, and kudharo “the harmful way”. He translated these Gujarati words into markers of identity and difference – Indian civilization (sudharo) versus Western civilization (kudharo). He could think in terms of these two paths in 1909 because there was still at that time a real dilemma, despite 150 years of British colonialism already having inflicted deep and lasting injuries on India. Some recovery, some healing was still imaginable; India could even then stay on its own course, which was the auspicious and beneficial one for it (implied in the positive prefix “su” before “dhara” or stream). Not only was it the right way for India – it was a universal claim Gandhi made, that this was in fact how all of humanity ought to proceed. But through the 20th century, despite decolonization, in fact only kudharo prevailed. What was merely Western civilization became global civilization, and in the process, from a Gandhian perspective, the whole world lost its way. And this we now know to be true. Between fascism and populism in politics, global warming and climate change in the environment, neoliberalism and inequality in economics, and finally, an utterly debilitating and intractable public health emergency in the form of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, we are plunged into the darkest possible phase of recent memory. Democracy has failed. Ecology has failed. Feminism has failed. Socialism has failed. Capitalism has failed. Not just in the United States or Russia, not just in China or India, not just in Germany or the United Kingdom, not just in Israel or Brazil, not just in Iran or Turkey, not just in Pakistan or Sri Lanka – the failure is comprehensive, all encompassing, and complete. Gandhi’s swaraj, satyagraha and ahimsa, flaring like brief beacons of hope in impenetrable darkness, are now difficult to even recall, in their meaning, in their purpose, in their promise of that other word, sudharo, and of the world it could have stood for. We can ask who is to blame but we are better off asking if anyone is blameless, because the answer is simpler – no. We are all, each and every one, complicit in the failure of the human endeavor that appears to be unfolding all around us. x x x 7 The thought of dedicating this issue of AROOP to the theme of “Failure” came to us last summer. The outcome of the 2019 general elections suggested that most Indians no longer believed in a plural, diverse, and egalitarian India. Events throughout the latter half of 2019 – the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir, the bifurcation of the state of J and K into two union territories, with the larger portion going to Ladakh, the indefinite incarceration of the entire political leadership of the state, and the imposition of a complete and utter communications and mobility ban in the region that lasted many months, seemed to usher in a dark chapter in the unraveling of India’s liberal democracy. The subsequent introduction of the Citizenship Amendment Bill, soon passed into an Act of Parliament; and the Supreme Court verdict on the Babri Masjid case, agreeing that the mosque had been wrongfully demolished in December 1992, and yet a Ram temple could be constructed at the site, came as seismic shocks, shaking the very foundations of the Indian Republic. The ideological defeat of the ‘Idea of India’ and the failure of state secularism seemed everywhere in evidence.

  • Chapter Seven
    2008006. Sinha. 07_Chapter7. Proef 4. 13-5-2008:12.06, page 189. chapter seven CONCLUSIONS When the World War came to an end in 1945 after the dropping of the atom bomb on Japan by America, the world scenario changed overnight. The Allies had won the war and the Axis Powers had lost it. The war which had been fought almost all over the world was decided in Japan in Asia. The time of the final defeat, its location and the ulti- mate weapon used for it are the three factors crucial for understanding the problems and issues concerned with the development of science in India and in fact in Asia as a whole. This was a period of national upsurge against foreign rule in most of the Western colonies in Asia, and thus against imperialism and Western capitalism—a high time for the West to tame the tide in their favour. The Indian subcontinent was in the last leg of its freedom struggle and many adjoining regions were undergoing similar movements; but it was the farthest Japan that posed the greatest danger for the Western Allies. Rooted in a typical cultural tradition of the East, Japan was seething with aggressive nationalism and ready to take on the forces of the West. To add to the problem, she was calling for the unity of Asia and emerging as harbinger of a cul- tural awakening in the East. A national stirring was already resonant in the Indian subcontinent. Thirty years before the Second World War began, Gandhi’s evocation in his Hind Swaraj had called for reviving the traditional values of the East and for following them for social progress; between the World Wars, Rabindranath Tagore refined the idea with a modern outlook.1 Scholars like B.K.

    UNIVERSIDADE DA BEIRA INTERIOR Engenharia Conceito de Mínimo na Arquitetura: proposta para a Quinta do Canavial (Covilhã) Ana Catarina Novais Gavina Dissertação para obtenção do Grau de Mestre em Arquitetura (ciclo de estudos integrado) Orientador: Prof. Doutor Ana Maria Tavares Ferreira Martins Co-orientador: Prof. Doutor Miguel Costa santos Nepomoceno Covilhã, Abril de 2016 ii Dedicatória Aos meus pais e irmã. iii iv Agradecimentos A todos aqueles que me acompanharam neste percurso, família, amigos, orientadores mas em especial aos meus pais e irmã que sem eles era impossível chegar até ao fim. v vi Resumo A presente dissertação irá abordar como tema fulcral a Habitação tendo de conceito principal o mínimo nas suas múltiplas vertentes. Desta forma, intrínsecos a esta temática, estão conceitos como o Minimalismo, a Flexibilidade e Funcionalidade. Apesar do Minimalismo ter tido as suas origens nas Artes Plásticas, em meados do séc. XX, já anteriores movimentos arquitétónicos tinham revelado resultados concordantes com os do Minimalismo (enquanto corrente estilística), como poderemos analisar através de exemplos escolhidos a nível do património histórico e do património contemporâneo da cela mínima e da habitação mínima, na Parte I. Respetivamente, o primeiro refere-se às celas monásticas e o segundo é relativo ao habitar mínimo tipicamente japonês, analisando pormenorizadamente os seus componentes e formas de habitar. Conclui-se a Parte I com um estudo da flexibilidade e multifuncionalidade de uma habitação, anunciando a filosofia “a forma segue a função”. Seguidamente, a Parte II, é exclusivamente dedicada à proposta do protótipo da habitação minimalista. Analisa-se primeiramente o terreno em questão, avaliando as suas considerações juntamente com as condicionantes da família do cliente.

  • Ryokan Sono Alberghi in Stile Giapponese
    Naima-Is-Online RRYYOOKKAANN I ryokan sono alberghi in stile giapponese. Al loro interno, si applicano le stesse norme generali di comportamento delle abitazioni in stile tradizionale e dei templi e santuari, quindi parte delle indicazioni contenute in questo documento potranno tornarvi utili anche in caso decideste di non soggiornare in ryokan. Vediamo di seguito i principali aspetti della vita quotidiana in un ambiente tradizionale giapponese. LA STANZA GIAPPONESE: WASHITSU Una caratteristica peculiare delle stanze in tatami (pavimenti in paglia intrecciata) è la loro doppia valenza: esse si trasformano da stanza da giorno a camera da letto in un attimo. Di giorno, infatti, nella stanza c'è solo il tavolo basso con i cuscini su cui sedersi, mentre la sera la cameriera sposta il tavolo e stende i futon (materassi) per terra, preparandoli per la notte. Il mattino, lasciata libera la stanza, la cameriera stende i futon a prendere aria prima di riporli nell'armadio e prepara il tavolo in centro alla stanza. Questo ciclo si ripete ogni giorno. In alcuni ryokan, la stanza viene sempre lasciata allestita a notte. Se si soggiorna in un minshuku, ryokan a conduzione familiare, e' probabile che siano gli stessi ospiti a doversi preparare il futon. Nelle stanze vengono serviti tè verde e dolcetti ogni giorno. www.naima-is-online.it di Alessia Ravelli Pag. 1 Naima-Is-Online Le donne siedono sui cuscini inginocchiate, o al massimo inginocchiate con le gambe messe leggermente di traverso, mentre gli uomini possono sedere inginocchiati o a gambe incrociate. Questa regola vale sempre quando si è sui tatami: al ristorante, nella camera del ryokan, al tempio, ecc.

In the process, they constrcuted the female self as the embodied, non-modern ‘other’ that belongs to the affective domain of the private or domestic, especially in the context of modernity. Women’s autobiographies, on the other hand, offered a counter- public discourse by imagining an alternate modern selfhood that challenged the elision of masculinity and modernity by reconstituting women’s subjectivity as political subjects in the modern public sphere. In narrating the gendered experiences of modernity women’s autobiographies have adopted a form known as ‘Autobiographical Manifesto’. The manifesto form enabled women to narrate their experiences of oppressions and exclusions from the public sphere and gave a call for new political collectivity and imagined future possibilities for modern selfhood.

Western E ducation and Industrial Revolution brought about a new awakening in the midst of Indian Intellectuals. The enlightened and educated Indians developed the consciousness about the Glory of Indian Culture and realized that the existing social evils such as Purdha System, Untouchability, Ban on Widow Remarriage, Infanticide, and Devadasi System and a host of other evil practices were leading to human degradation. Under such circumstances, various social and religious reformers rose to meet the challenge of the times. Raja Ram Mohan Roy, regarded as the Father of Indian Renaissance, is the forerunner of all reformers in the galaxy of such social reformers and Dr.Muthulakshmi Reddi is considered the first Woman social reformer in South India.

The objective of this conference is to give a glimpse of socio-political reformers who fought against social stagnation without spreading hatred. Their models have repeatedly succeeded and they have been able to create a perceptible change in the mindset of the people who were wedded to casteism. History is a great treat into the past. It let us live in an era where we are at present. It helps us to relate to people who influenced the shape of the present day. It enables us to understand how the world worked then and how it works now. It provides us with the frame work of knowledge that we need to build our entire lives. We can learn how things have changed ever since and they are the personalities that helped to change the scenario.
