G. Tadasad 1UGC-Post Doctoral Fellow, Department of Library and Information Science, Akkamahadevi Women’s University, Vijayapura, Karnataka 2Professor and Chairman, Department of Library and Information Science, Akkamahadevi Women’s University, Vijayapura, Karnataka Abstract: The present work is an effort to know the evaluation of newspapers as an information supporting agency among rural women in Karnataka state. Data was collected on newspaper readers and Usefulness of newspaper as information supporting agency. A sample size of 1800 rural women was taken for the study, the research identifies the general characteristics of study population, newspaper reading habits of women, preferred places for reading newspapers, categories of newspapers read by rural women, list of daily newspapers read by women, purpose of reading newspapers, newspapers as an information supporting agency and usefulness of newspapers as information supporting agency. Concludes that the onus is on libraries to prove their significance. Keywords: Newspaper, Periodical, Rural Women, Karnataka 1. Introduction: Newspapers, magazines and books are a good means of mass-communication. This is a print medium which travels far and wide. The newspapers have a very wide circulation and every literate person tries to go through them. They bring us the latest news, rates of the commodities, advertisements, employment news, matrimonial and other information [1]. Newspapers tend to reach more educated, elitist audiences in many developing countries. This may not seem the quickest way, compared with radio or TV, to reach a mass audience.

  • Tabloidization of the Media: the Page Three Syndrome* Justice G.N
    Tabloidization of the Media: The Page Three Syndrome* Justice G.N. Ray C.P. Scott, the founder editor of the Manchester Guardian, once said: "News is sacred, opinion is free". In India, news in a written format had always been considered the truth and has been more powerful than the spoken word. But such position is not anymore. Media is an integral and imperative component of democratic polity and is rightly called fourth limb of democracy. It is not merely what the media does in a democracy, but what it is, that defines the latter. Its practice, its maturity, and the level of ethics it professes and practices in its working are as definitive of the quality of a democracy as are the functions of the other limbs. With tremendous growth and expansion, prospects of mass media are today viewed as more powerful than ever before. However some feel that the media has gone too far ahead of itself, and today media has become more show rather than the medium. Media has created its own world of glamour, gossip, sex and sensation, that has played a major role in distracting attention from the real issues of our times. Former Chief Vigilance Commissioner N. Vittal in his article in Bhavan's journal June 30, "Journalism is losing……" has indicated that special problem faced by journalists these days relates to journalism itself. The page 3 culture can make people live in a make-believe world and as a result, instead of journalism connecting people, it may result in the people losing touch with reality being connected through the media.

  • Creative Industries, the Way Forwad
    CREATIVE INDUSTRIES, THE WAY FORWARD S.V.Srinivas, P.Radhika, and Ashish Rajadhyaksha with inputs from K.Sravanthi CIDASIA, Centre for the Study of Culture and Society December 2009 INTRODUCTION The project proposes to study indigenous non-traditional cultural production or what has come to be referred to as ‘creative industries’ (e.g. media, audio-visual industry, film, television) in recent times.1 By creative industries we refer to the vast sector that has emerged with the arrival of modern technologies and forms of mass reproduction since the colonial period. This sector has now become an important site of intervention for both governments such as in UK, Australia and India and international agencies such as the United Nations. This study is a part of a larger CIDASIA initiative to research the area of what we call ‘culture industries’ that includes both ‘creative industries’ and ‘cultural industries’ (including crafts and legacy industries), focussing on the increasing areas of overlap between the two. The initiative attempts to assess the viability of international and government policies for cultural and creative industries and thus lay the groundwork for a hitherto unprecedented intervention of philanthropic organizations in the domain. We specifically focus on culture industries through the node of ‘livelihoods’ that we see as inextricably tied to this sector. In attempting to do so we will critically examine influential paradigms and frameworks that have in the recent past determined the response of the state as well as philanthropists in the broad area of arts and culture. The present study restricts itself to the creative industries sector, using the cases of film, print and music industries.

  • Literature and Culture 739
    Literature and Culture 739 CHAPTER XIV LITERATURE AND CULTURE Mandya district is known in the Puranas to have been a part of Dandakaranya forest.

  • Migrant Labourers, Covid-19 and Working-Class Struggle in the Time of Pandemic: a Report from Karnataka, India Mallige Sirimane and Nisha Thapliyal (11Th June 2020)
    Interface: A journal for and about social movements Movement report Volume 12 (1): 164 - 181 (July 2020) Sirimane & Thapliyal, Migrants, Covid-19, Struggle Migrant labourers, Covid-19 and working-class struggle in the time of pandemic: a report from Karnataka, India Mallige Sirimane and Nisha Thapliyal (11th June 2020) Abstract Since the imposition of the unplanned lockdown in India, Karnataka Jan Shakti has worked with stranded migrant labourers to respond to a range of issues including starvation, transportation to return home, sexual violence, Islamophobia and labour rights. Karnataka Jan Shakti (KJS, Karnataka People’s Power) is a coalition of Left-leaning activist groups and individuals. For the last decade, it has mobilised historically oppressed groups on issues of economic and cultural justice including Dalit sanitation workers, Dalit university students, slumdwellers, peasants, nomadic tribes, and survivors of sexual violence. Our approach to collective struggle is shaped by the social analysis tools of Karl Marx, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar and Shankar Guha Niyogi. In this article, we document and analyse our struggle against situated forms of precarity in migrant lives shaped by class, caste, gender, age, and rural/urban geography which have been exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic. We also reflect on lessons for movement-building in a political milieu dominated by a hyper surveillant fascist state, communal media apparatus and accelerated, unregulated privatisation under the latest national slogan of Self-Reliant India (AtmaNirbhar Bharat). Keywords: Migrant labourers, Covid-19 pandemic, India, learning in the struggle Introduction On March 24 2020, Prime Minister Narendra Modi (BJP, Bharatiya Janata Party) announced a three-week national lockdown to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

No. 2006-05-02 May 2006 The main objective of the working paper series of the IIMA is to help faculty members, Research Staff and Doctoral Students to speedily share their research findings with professional colleagues, and to test out their research findings at the pre-publication stage INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT AHMEDABAD-380 015 INDIA W.P. No. 2006-05-02 Page No. 1 INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT AHMEDABAD INDIA Research and Publications Bangalore Cluster: Evolution, Growth and Challenges Rakesh Basant Abstract The dynamism and persistence of competitiveness among industrial clusters, even in the wake of globalization and liberalization in the 1990s, has led researchers to explore the causes of dynamic efficiencies at the cluster level. Given its dynamism, the ICT cluster in Bangalore, India has attracted much research and media attention. It is often referred to as the Silicon Valley of India. While the IT sector has brought the city into limelight, it has a fairly diverse portfolio of activities with firms manufacturing machine tools, telecom equipment, electronics products and to some extent auto-components located here. In recent years, the city has also emerged as a premier bio-tech cluster in the country. This paper pools together evidence to explore reasons why Bangalore emerged as a high-tech cluster and the nature of advantages that has contributed to its growth. ________________________________________________ This is a revised version of the paper presented at the Second Asian Development Conference on ICT Industrial Clusters in East Asia at Kitakyusha, Japan during December 12-14, 2005.
