  • Motherhood, Women Issues and Masculinity: Deconstructing Global Beauty Pageants
    International Journal of Research on Social and Natural Sciences Vol. III Issue 1 June 2018 ISSN (Online) 2455-5916 Journal Homepage: www.katwacollegejournal.com Motherhood, Women Issues and Masculinity: Deconstructing Global Beauty Pageants Yeamanur Khatun, English, Panchmura College, India Article Record: Received Mar. 30 2018, Revised paper received May 22 2018, Final Acceptance June 6 2018 Available Online June 7 2018 Abstract This paper aims at deconstructing the fashion beauty pageants' organisational claim to provide the contestant models and winners platforms to treading through global relations and achieve worldwide recognition, while actually fostering the myth of beauty with culturally-fabricated norms of femininity and masculinity holding up the concepts of 'Complete' or 'Perfect' woman or man to the fore. Here, we seek to talk about the political hegemony working from behind the colossal fashion world economy and how the pageants are being manipulated by the larger capitalist countries through their market capturing tactics. But what we intend most is to show that the pageant contestants sometimes act as passive resistants, countering the hegemonic discourse to dismantle the norms set by the Fashion Politics, starting from Manushi Chhillar's vote for remunerative motherhood to Reita Faria's choice of forming her own identities in their attempt to refuse the laid out set of ideologies. Keywords: Deconstruction, Fashion, Beauty pageants, motherhood, femininity, masculinity, Norms, Binaries 1. Introduction Much ink has been split upon the normative binarization of femininity and masculinity as culturally- fabricated constructions and their presentation in international beauty pageants is termed ideological and discursive. Beauty pageants treat gender as one more category along with other categories of 'caste', or 'nation' as reflected in the seemingly 'worthy' title ascription such as "Miss India" or in the very entrance forms they fill in ticking on the given boxes of gender, nationality ,religion or maritalstatus.

  • November 19Th News: International: UN-Led Ministerial Conference In
    November 19th news: International: UN-led ministerial conference in Moscow agrees universal commitment to end tuberculosis On 17th November, 75 ministers announced a landmark agreement to take urgent action to end tuberculosis (TB) by 2030 at the conclusion of a World Health Organization (WHO) conference in Moscow, Russia, on eradicating the world's deadliest infectious disease. Together with UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed and Mr. Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Russian President Vladimir Putin opened the Conference on 16 November. The gathering brought together delegates from 114 countries. The newly-minted Moscow Declaration to End TB is a promise to increase multisectoral action as well as track progress, and build accountability. It will also inform the first UN General Assembly High-Level Meeting on TB in 2018, which will seek further commitments from heads of State. Since 2000, global efforts to combat the disease have saved an estimated 53 million lives and reduced the TB mortality rate by 37 per cent. However, progress in many countries has stalled, global targets are off-track and persistent gaps remain in TB care and prevention. As a result, TB still kills more people than any other infectious disease. There are also major problems associated with antimicrobial resistance, and it is the leading killer of people with HIV. More than 1,000 participants took part in the two-day conference, which was attended by ministers and country delegations, as well as representatives of civil society and international organizations, scientists and researchers. The end result was a collective commitment to ramp up action on four fronts. The first pledge was to rapidly move to achieve universal health coverage by strengthening health systems and improving access to people-centred TB prevention and care so no one is left behind.

  • VIVEKANANDA INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION About
    Policies & Perspectives VIVEKANANDA INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION Celebrate Women Achievers, but remember the challenges too Rajesh Singh, Visiting Fellow, VIF 13 Dec 2017 A spate of recent achievements by Indian women in the international arena has predictably led to a celebration of gender empowerment. The women’s cricket team reached the final of the World Cup, and although it lost the match the players brought no shame in the defeat. The hockey team won the Asia Cup in grand style. Badminton player PV Sindhu won Super Series tournaments. As many as five Indian women took golds at the Youth World Boxing Championship. Saikhom Mirabai won the silver in weightlifting at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games. Veteran boxer and five-time world champion Mary Kom, on a comeback spree, lifted the Asian boxing championship title in her weight category. And, Manushi Chhillar has been crowned Miss World 2017. These are the most recent accomplishments by Indian women. Earlier, they did the country proud in the last Olympics. Wrestler Sakshi Malik picked a bronze, Dipa Karmakar lost the bronze narrowly in the gymnastics vault discipline but had the satisfaction of leaving a lasting impression on the international audience, while Lalita Babar made it to the final of the 3,000 meter steeple chase. The earlier decades had seen the rise of Indian women power in the sprint queen PT Usha and beauty pageant winners Aishwarya Rai (now Aishwarya Bachchan), Sushmita Sen, Priyanka Chopra, Diana Hayden, Lara Dutta and a few more. And, one cannot forget the Phogat sisters from Haryana, wrestlers of international fame, whose exploits inspired the hugely successful film, Dangal.

And while there are other forms of fracking available, hydraulic fracturing – fracking with water – is by far the most common method currently in use.

However, while it is widespread, hydraulic fracturing uses water – a lot of water. Water is becoming increasingly scarce in many regions of the country, including some regions wher fracking is common.
