Newsletter October - December, 2012 FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION ONLY An ISO 9001:2008 Certified Organisation Volume III, Issue IV Newsletter October - December, 2012 Upcoming Highlights Talks by eminent personalities: • Narayan Murthy • G. Parthasarthy • Lord Meghnad Desai • Azim Premji All our programmes are now on Youtube. Visit - http://www.youtube.com/user/icggoa?feature=watch Goa Dialogues 1 The International Centre Goa FINAL.indd 1 07-01-2013 15:11:49 Director’s Message Dear Friends, Greetings and Best Wishes for a Happy 2013, in an India where there is peace, justice and equality ! Two small words-justice and equality, yet they hold the key for a year which we hope will be different from the one which just went by. The insensitive brutality of the horrific rape left everyone stunned and reeling with shock. I wonder how many generations it will take to change the mindset of these men, who not only rape their womenfolk, but also kill their daughters and sell their sisters to the highest bidder! Enough has been written and said on this in the national media. But it is still not enough. We also intend to start a series of discussions and debate at the Centre, focusing more on the laws pertaining to women and its implementation and awareness, especially amongst the youth, and also try in our own small way to try and change the feudal mindset which treats women as second class citizens. For us, the year ended with another successful Goa Arts and Literary Festival - this time we focused on Kashmir, its literature, music and theatre. M.K.Raina, the doyen of Kashmiri theatre, came down with his troupe of 30 artists who performed at the Governor’s palace as well as at the Kala Academy. Shri Omar Abdullah, the Chief Minister of Jammu & Kashmir, flew down especially for the Inaugural. Many authors and journalists also graced the occasion from the valley. For all this, we are grateful to His Excellency the Governor of Goa, Shri Bharat Vir Wanchoo and Shri Omar Abdullah, for their generous support throughout in organizing the festival. From its inception in 2010, the Festival has strongly emphasized ‘different ways of belonging’, by showcasing the best artists, musicians, writers and poets from the At the High Tea for the GALF Delegates hosted by zones of most profound confluence at the margins of H. E. the Governor of Goa, at the Cabo Raj Niwas India. More than 75 delegates from across the country and abroad were hosted by us during this Festival. For those who could not make it, I urge you to go on ‘youtube’ and see the live sessions. Despite our outstanding list of delegates, we were somehow very disappointed by the number of participants. Though some sessions were packed, there were many which could have done with a few hundred more people in the audience, especially students. They would have benefitted immensely by interacting with such luminaries. How often do you find Jatin Das, Jeet Thayil or a Kiran Nagarkar sitting by themselves sipping tea, in our lawns, not averse to a little tete a tete ? Come on friends, grab this opportunity next time! 2012 also saw a spectacular lineup of celebrities visiting the Centre. From Anil Kakodkar, S.Y.Quraishi, Kiran Karnik, Maroof Raza to Shailesh Gandhi, we had them all coming to share their thoughts with us. In the new year too, we intend to get you many more dynamic speakers like Narayan Murthy, G.Parthasarthy, Lord Meghnad Desai and many more. There will be exciting panel discussions and seminars on topics pertaining to India and South Asia, that need urgently to be discussed, thought provoking films from around the world, cultural activities spanning a wide range from music to theatre—all in all I promise you a very provocative and interesting year, packed with action. But I also need a promise from you that you will attend in large numbers. So hope to see you all at ICG during the year. I wish you good health and happiness always! Nandini Sahai.

  • The Global Career of Indian Opium and Local Destinies
    52 The Global Career of Indian Opium and Local Destinies DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/2236-463320161404 Amar Farooqui Department of History, University of Delhi, Delhi [email protected] Abstract: As is well known, opium was a major colonial commodity. It was linked to trade in several other commodities of the modern era such as tea, sugar and cotton and through these to Atlantic the slave trade. The movement of these commodities across continents shaped capitalism in very specific ways. In the case of India, for instance, earnings from the several components of the opium enterprise played an important role in the growth of industrial capitalism. This paper looks at the historical circumstances in which various localities and regions of the Indian subcontinent, especially western India, and the Indian Ocean became part of the opium enterprise during the early nineteenth century. It attempts to understand the manner in which local destinies were linked to the global, reinforcing and/or resisting British imperial interests. For this purpose I have chosen the port of Daman, on the West Coast of India as a representative example. Daman (Damaõ) was a Portuguese colony. The paper pays close attention to political processes at the local level so as to make sense of global patterns of trade in a commodity that was vital for sustaining the British Empire. Keywords: Opium, Malwa, Daman, Smuggling, Estado da Índia, Macau, Bombay, Tea, East India Company, colonial commodities Almanack. Guarulhos, n.14, p.52-73 dossiê scales of global history 53 Colonial commodities created conditions that can be better understood in a global context and by scrutinizing the interconnections between developments in different parts of the world.

  • Authoritarianism and Making of Counterdiscourse in Colonial Goa
    Revista de História das Ideias Vol. 39. 2ª Série (2021) 75-95 AUTHORITARIANISM AND MAKING OF COUNTERDISCOURSE IN COLONIAL GOA NAGENDRA RAO Goa University, Goa, India [email protected] https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2470-7257 Texto recebido em / Text submitted on: 17/07/2020 Texto aprovado em / Text approved on: 18/01/2021 Abstract: By using the concepts such as power, discourse, and «reverse» (counter) discourse, this paper contextualises colonial discourse and nationalist counterdiscourse through a critique of the concepts – Goa Dourada and Goa Indica. A comparison of the Goan colonial scenario with Africa demonstrates similarities between the two regions. Further, the Goan scene is juxtaposed with other parts of India. It enables us to rationalize the affinity of the nationalist of Goa with Indian nationalism. The complex processes, individuals, groups involved in the making of the counterdiscourse are delineated. The final part of the article analyses the emergence of discourse that countered the counterdiscourse, thus showing that a discourse is bound to be challenged by a counterdiscourse. Keywords: Discourse; counterdiscourse; Portuguese; colonialism; history writing. https://doi.org/10.14195/2183-8925_39_3 Revista de História das Ideias Introduction Michael Foucault has been a premier figure who provided the scholars with concepts such as power, discourse and counterdiscourse. He identifies the transitional nature of power and discourse. Power is a relative concept that has no identity without the existence of a few constituents. Power involves the relationship between the dominant and subordinate groups. The colonial authority is the dominant group while the colonial subjects are the subordinate groups. Discourse is the mode of power’s representation.

I use the terms ‘British India’ instead of ‘India’ and ‘Portuguese India’ instead of ‘Goa’ (and the territories of Daman and Diu on the coast of Guja- rat), in order to critically re-think the writing of history from an In- dian nationalist and post-colonialist perspectives. The post-colonial reality of Portuguese India under the Indian nation-state after 1961 does not readily fit into the imagination of Indian nationhood. Nor does it fit easily into the theoretical perspective emerging out of a reading of the British colonial archive. This is due to the fact that modes of colonialism of the Portuguese and the British differed from each other. Since the perspective of British India ultimately became the norm, there have been attempts to fit the ill-fitting history of Portuguese India into the British Indian mold. This has serious re- percussions for understanding the history of Portuguese colonialism. It also has repercussions for understanding the political representa- tion and identities of the various communities living in Portuguese India under Indian nationalism and the Indian nation-state.
