  • Catalogue No. 14 of the Papers of Chandi Prasad Bhatt
    OF CONTEMPORARY INDIA Catalogue No. 14 Of The Papers of Chandi Prasad Bhatt Plot # 2, Rajiv Gandhi Education City, P.O. Rai, Sonepat – 131029, Haryana (India) Chandi Prasad Bhatt Gandhian Social Activist Chandi Prasad Bhatt is one of India’s first modern environmentalist. He was born on 23 June 1934. Inspired by Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy of peace and non-violence, Chandi Prasad averted deforestation in the Garhwal region by clinging (Chipko) to the trees to prevent them from being felled during the 1970’s. He established the Dasholi Gram Swarajya Mandal (DGSM), a cooperative organization in 1964 at Gopeshwar in Chamoli district, Uttarakhand and dedicated himself through DGSM to improve the lives of villagers. He provided them employment near their homes in forest-based industries and fought against flawed policies through Gandhian non-violent satyagraha. To maintain the ecological balance of the forest, DGSM initiated a number of tree-plantation and protection programmes, especially involving women to re-vegetate the barren hillsides that surrounded them. He created a synthesis between practical field knowledge and the latest scientific innovations for the conservation of environment and ecology in the region. Chandi Prasad Bhatt has been honoured with several awards including Ramon Magsaysay Award for community leadership (1982), Padma Shri (1986), Padma Bhushan (2005), Gandhi Peace Prize (2013), and Sri Sathya Sai Award (2016). Chandi Prasad Bhatt has written several books on forest conservation and large dams: Pratikar Ke Ankur (Hindi), Adhure Gyan Aur Kalpanik Biswas per Himalaya se Cherkhani Ghatak (Hindi), Future of Large Projects in the Himalaya, Eco-system of Central Himalaya, Chipko Experience, Parvat Parvat Basti Basti, etc.

  • Career Guide Career Guide Professionals Career Guide Publications Career Guidance Standards
    Career guide A career guide is an individual or publication that provides guidance to people facing a variety of career challenges. These challenges may include (but are not limited to) dealing with redundancy; seeking a new job; changing careers; returning to work after a career break; building new skills; personal and professional development; going for promotion; and setting up a business. The common aim of the career guide, whatever the particular situation of the individual being guided, is normally to help that individual gain control of their career and, to some extent, their life. Career guide professionals Individuals who work as career guides usually take the approach of combining coaching, mentoring, advising and consulting in their work, without being limited to any one of these disciplines. A typical career guide will have a mixture of professional qualifications and work experiences from which to draw when guiding clients.[1] They may also have a large network of contacts and, when appropriate will put a particular client in touch with a contact relevant to their case. A career guide may work for themselves independently or for one or more private or public careers advisory services. The term 'Career Guide' has been first established and used by career consulting firm Position Ignition, which was created in 2009 and has been using the term for their career consultants and career advisors. Career guide publications Career guide publications may take a number of forms, including PDFs, booklets, journals or books. A career guide publication will typically be divided up into a number of chapters or segments, each one addressing a particular career issue.

SHANTHI SENA: UNARMED PEACEKEEPING BY DENNIS AUGUST ALMEIDA A MASTER THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF THE ARTS IN POLITICAL SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2008 MASTER OF THE ARTS THESIS OF DENNIS AUGUST ALMEIDA APPROVED: Thesis Committee: Major Professor___ {L~ , -~=--'" =--___,~-~-"'--' _· _ -1/L.-'--=-...____ _ UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2008 ABSTRACT Where questions of violence and nonviolence cannot be raised inside a polity, it becomes obligatory that social scientists undertake them from the outside (Paige 2002:92). And if we are to "transform our society from a psychology of killing and threats to kill to one that is life-enhancing and spiritually fulfilling," (Ariyaratne 1999:73) then social science research on nonviolence and unarmed peacekeeping is an imperative. With this in mind I investigated the Shanthi Sena (Peace Brigade), an independent unit of the Sarvodaya Sharamadana Movement in Sri Lanka, through a six week in-depth case study; a full description, understanding and appreciation of a long established -yet little known- creative, nonviolent movement for social change and reconstruction.

  • Nonviolent Transformational
    NONVIOLENT TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP FOR NO-POVERTY DEVELOPMENT: A.T. ARIYARATNE AND THE SARVODAYA SHRAMADANA MOVEMENT Glenn D. Paige, Chair Center for Global Non-Killing Honolulu, HI The experience of A.T. Ariyaratne and the Sarvodaya Shramadana Movement of Sri Lanka offers an example of transformational leadership for development toward “no-poverty” societies in a nonviolent world. This chapter seeks lessons that can be learned from it. The significance of the Sarvodaya Sharmadana Movement can be appreciated in the historical context of the breakdown of the world colonial system after WWII, the violent competition between revolutionary communism and counterrevolutionary capitalism to demonstrate superior development capabilities during the Cold War era, and the present 21st century “globalizing” world confronted by five gigantic problems: violence, poverty, violations of human dignity, environmental despoliation, and the imperative need for global problem- solving cooperation. The nonviolent revolutionary call in 1981 still rings true of 53 Nobel Prize laureates to end what they termed the “holocaust” of millions of preventable deaths from hunger, malnutrition, and underdevelopment. They declared: “All who denounce and combat this holocaust are unanimous in maintaining that the causes of this tragedy are political.” They explained: 1 Although the powerful of this earth bear the greatest responsibility, they are not alone. If the helpless take their fate into their own hands, if increasing numbers refuse to obey any law other than fundamental human rights the most basic of which is the right to life, if the weak organize themselves and use the few but powerful weapons available to them: nonviolent actions exemplified by Gandhi, adopting and imposing objectives which are limited and suitable: if these things happen it is certain that an end could be put to this catastrophe in our time.

He was the eldest son of his parents. His father was a wealthy Brahmin landowner of Wardha district, who owned over 450 acres of good cultivable land. The name 'Baba' was affectionately given by his parents. At a very young age, Baba Amte owned a gun and used to hunt wild boar and deer. Later, he went on to own an expensive sports car, cushioned with panther skin. He studied Law and started a lucrative practice in Wardha, but was moved by distressed condition of the poor and downtrodden classes of society. Then he relinquished his ceremonial dress and started working with the rag- pickers and sweepers for some time in Chandrapura district. Later, he resumed practicing but as a "defence lawyer" for the leaders imprisoned in the 1942 Quit India movement. Amte, like Vinoba Bhave was deeply influenced by the philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi. Amte was a constant follower of Gandhiji and practiced various aspects of Gandhism for his entire life. In 1946, Baba Amte married Sadhana Guleshastri. She was also a believer of humanity and always supported Baba Amte in his social works.

  • Non-Violent Struggles of the Twentieth Century
    Foreword Narayan Desai Chancellor, Gujarat Vidyapith, Ahmedabad I am happy to write a foreword for the set of papers written for an international workshop held in New Delhi on the theme of "Non-violent struggles of the Twentieth Century and their lessons for the Twenty-first Century" in the form of a well edited book, I venture to add a few lines of my own as a humble contribution. The twentieth century is known to be the most violent century witnessed in human history. It had two dreadful world wars; devastation of two cities by the use of nuclear bombs and hundreds of other wars in between World Wars and following them, leaving tens of millions dead and injured. The civilian victims outnumbered the military soldiers in these wars. The development of technology made our planet easier for communications and also more vulnerable. More and more people were exploited by fewer and fewer persons, dividing the world into two unequal halves of the favoured and the marginalized. Not only were human beings killed, but mother earth and its surrounding atmosphere were ruined. Nature, and its flora and fauna were treated mercilessly by men. The tragic division between the rulers and the ruled was sharper than ever before. The minorities and the poor were more unfortunate victims in this tragedy, and the women and the children among them the most severely affected. While science and technology advanced rapidly, the schism between the privileged and the deprived became wider and deeper, leaving several sections of society utterly destitute. The structural violence of the twentieth century was often more cold-bloodedly ruinous than overt violence.

  • INDIA-TANZANIA RELATIONS Tanzania and India Have Enjoyed Traditionally Close, Friendly and Co-Operative Relations. from the 1960
    INDIA-TANZANIA RELATIONS Tanzania and India have enjoyed traditionally close, friendly and co-operative relations. From the 1960s to the 1980s, the political relationship involved shared commitments to anti-colonialism, non-alignment as well as desire for South-South Cooperation and close cooperation in international fora. The then President (Mwalimu) Julius Nyerere was held in high esteem in India; he was conferred the Jawaharlal Nehru Award for International Understanding for 1974, and the International Gandhi Peace Prize for 1995. In the post-Cold War era, India and Tanzania both initiated economic reform programmes around the same time alongside developing external relations aimed at broader international political and economic relations, developing international business linkages and promoting foreign investment. In recent years, India-Tanzania ties have evolved into a modern and pragmatic relationship with sound political understanding, diversified economic engagement, people to people contacts in the field of education & healthcare, and development partnership in capacity building training, concessional credit lines and grant projects. The High Commission of India in Dar es Salaam has been operating since November 19, 1961 and the Consulate General of India in Zanzibar was set up on October 23, 1974. Visit of the Prime Minister of India to Tanzania Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi paid a State Visit to Tanzania from 9-10 July 2016.
