  • Nature and Causes of Inter-District Variations in Yield of Rice in West Bengal, 1970-71 to 1994-95
    Ind. Jn. ofAgri. Econ. Vol. 59, No. 4, Oct.-Dec. 1999 Nature and Causes of Inter-District Variations in Yield of Rice in West Bengal, 1970-71 to 1994-95 Utpal Kumar De* INTRODUCTION During the last few decades, substantial changes have been observed in the production and productivity of rice in West Bengal. Several studies have reported the significant contribution of new seed-fertiliser-irrigation technology (widely known as the technology of Green Revolution) to the growth of production and productivity (Dharm Narain, 1976; Mehta, 1981; Hazell, 1982; Rao et al. 1988; Bandyopadhyay, 1989; Ninan and Chandra- shekar, 1991). The growth of production and yield of rice however has not been uniform across different districts of the state. This paper seeks to examine the nature and extent of inter-district variations in the growth of yield of rice in West Bengal during 1970-71 to 1994-95 and the causes for such variations. West Bengal is one of the important agricultural states of India, that has been contributing nearly 15-16 per cent of annual rice production of the country since 1970-71. Its economy is predominantly agricultural. Around two-thirds of its population earn their livelihood from agricultural activities (Government of India, 1992). Rice occupies 70 per cent of the gross cropped area of the state and it is the main staple food of the majority of the population of the state (Table 1). From the exponential rates of growth it is observed that a major part of increase in production of rice during 1970-71 to 1994-95 was due to growth of its yield.' However,the increase in the yield of rice was not uniform across different districts of West Bengal.

  • The Keys to British Success in South Asia COLIN WATTERSON
    The Keys to British Success in South Asia COLIN WATTERSON “God is on everyone’s side…and in the last analysis he is on the side with plenty of money and large armies” -Jean Anouilh For a period of a period of over one hundred years, the British directly controlled the subcontinent of India. How did a small island nation come on the Edge of the North Atlantic come to dominate a much larger landmass and population located almost 4000 miles away? Historian Sir John Robert Seeley wrote that the British Empire was acquired in “a fit of absence of mind” to show that the Empire was acquired gradually, piece-by-piece. This will paper will try to examine some of the most important reasons which allowed the British to successfully acquire and hold each “piece” of India. This paper will examine the conditions that were present in India before the British arrived—a crumbling central political power, fierce competition from European rivals, and Mughal neglect towards certain portions of Indian society—were important factors in British control. Economic superiority was an also important control used by the British—this paper will emphasize the way trade agreements made between the British and Indians worked to favor the British. Military force was also an important factor but this paper will show that overwhelming British force was not the reason the British military was successful—Britain’s powerful navy, ability to play Indian factions against one another, and its use of native soldiers were keys to military success. Political Agendas and Indian Historical Approaches The historiography of India has gone through four major phases—three of which have been driven by the prevailing world politics of the time.

  • Bengal-Bangladesh Border and Women
    The Bengal-Bangladesh Borderland: Chronicles from Nadia, Murshidabad and Malda 1 Paula Banerjee Introduction Borderland studies, particularly in the context of South Asia are a fairly recent phenomenon. I can think of three works that have made borderlands, particularly the Bengal-Bangladesh borderland as the focal area of their study in the last one decade. Ranabir Samaddar’s The Marginal Nation: Transborder Migration From Bangladesh to West Bengal started a trend that was continued by Willem Van Schendel in his The Bengal Borderland: Beyond State and Nation in South Asia . Both these books argue that the border is part of larger zone or the borderland that at once constructs and subverts the nation. Samaddar goes beyond the security and immutable border discourse and problematises the borderland by speaking of flows across the border. He argues that such flows are prompted by historical and social affinities, geographical contiguity and economic imperative. People move when their survival is threatened and rigid borders mean little to the desperate. They question the nation form that challenges their existence. If need be they find illegal ways to tackle any obstacle that stand in their path of moving particularly when that makes the difference between life and death. Thereby Samaddar questions ideas of nation state and national security in present day South Asia when and if it privileges land over the people who inhabit that land. Van Schendel also takes the argument along similar lines by stating that without understanding the borderland it is impossible to understand the nation form that develops in South Asia, the economy that emerges or the ways in which national identities are internalized.

It is concerned with identifying the factors that influenced the shaping of the Bengali character by examining the most significant Bengali type designs in their historical context, and by analyzing the composing techniques employed during the past two centuries for printing the script. Introduction: The thesis is divided into three parts according to the different methods of type manufacture and composition: 1. The Development of Movable Metal Types for the Bengali Script Particular emphasis is placed on the early founts which lay the foundations of Bengali typography.
