Translations of Security; a Framework for the Study of Unwanted Futures; 1
Routledge New Security Studies TRANSLATIONS OF SECURITY A FRAMEWORK FOR THE STUDY OF UNWANTED FUTURES Trine Villumsen Berling, Ulrik Pram Gad, Karen Lund Petersen, and Ole Wæver Translations of Security This book scrutinises how contemporary practices of security have come to rely on many different translations of security, risk, and danger. Institutions of national security policies are currently undergoing radical conceptual and organisational changes, and this book presents a novel approach for how to study and politically address the new situation. Complex and uncertain threat environments, such as terrorism, climate change, and the global financialcrisis, have paved the way for new forms of security governance that have profoundly transformed the ways in which threats are handled today. Crucially, there is a decentralisation of the management of security, which is increasingly handled by a broad set of societal actors that previously were not considered powerful in the conduct of security affairs. This transformation of security knowledge and management changes the meaning of traditional concepts and practices, and calls for investigation into the many meanings of security implied when contemporary societies manage radical dangers, risks, and threats. It is necessary to study both what these meanings are and how they developed from the security practices of the past. Addressing this knowledge gap, the book asks how different ideas about threats, risk, and dangers meet in the current practices of security, broadly understood, and with what political consequences. This book will be of interest to students of critical security studies, anthropology, risk studies, science and technology studies and International Relations. Trine Villumsen Berling is a Senior Researcher at the Danish Institute for Inter- national Studies (DIIS). -

Cyclone and Its Effect on Shoreline Changes in Archaeological Sites, East Coast of Tamil Nadu, India
AEGAEUM JOURNAL ISSN NO: 0776-3808 Cyclone and its Effect on Shoreline Changes in Archaeological Sites, East Coast of Tamil Nadu, India Sathiyamoorthy G, *Sivaprakasam Vasudevan, Selvaganapathi R & Nishikanth C. V Department of Earth Sciences, Annamalai University, Annamalainagar, Tamil Nadu, India. *[email protected] ABSTRACT : The contact line between sea and land, is knows as shoreline and they are experiencing changes due to the long-shore current, tides, wave, and storm surges, etc. The Shorelines played a major role in human settlement and favours the clustering of Port cities from ancient to present. The changes in the shoreline directly affect the livelihood of the coastal cities and also worn out the maritime archaeological sites, particularly during the late Quaternary period. A few archaeological sites including Arikamedu, Poompuhar, Tharangambadi, and Sembiyankandiyur show a direct/indirect relationship with the shoreline changes between 1972 and 2018. The shoreline changes between Pondicherry and Nagapattinam patch, with respect to the archaeological sites, quantify erosion -20.52 m/period in Arikamedu, Poompuhar, and Tharangambadi and -25.28 m/period along Sembiyankandiyur region during a span of 46 years. The maritime Archaeological, pride sites like Poompuhar, Tharangambadi and Sembiyankandiyur on the coastal region were submerged in the sea, the remand parts are also under the threat to vanish at a faster rate. Keywords: LRR, EPR and NSM, Erosion and Accretion. 1. INTRODUCTION Coastal region of the south eastern part of India is significant with respect to archaeological studies. The modest tide and wave action in the Bay of Bengal has enabled the formation and continuance of many coastal sites. -

Greenland: Independence and Foreign and Security Policy Produced, edited and narrated by: Jonas Bredal Juul, University of Copenhagen Featuring: Mar>n Breum, Arc>c expert, journalist and writer Jon Rahbek-Clemmensen, Associate Professor at the Royal Danish Defence College, affiliated with the Center for Arc>c Security Studies Aaja Chemnitz Larsen, Greenlandic member of the Danish Parliament Introduced by: Sarah Mackie Sarah Mackie: Hello and welcome to Northern Lights, the Harvard Arc>c Ini>a>ve Student Podcast. In this episode we are going to explore the issues surrounding Greenland’s foreign and security policy. Jonas Bredal Juul, a student at the University of Copenhagen, asks whether Greenland can ever fully govern its foreign and security policies itself – and what the consequences of this would be? This is Jonas Bredal Juul with ‘Greenland: Independence and Foreign and Security Policy’. Jonas: On top of the north American con>nent, deep into the arc>c, you find Greenland. The world’s biggest island. A place of about 56,000 inhabitants governed by extensive self-rule – though s>ll a part of the Danish Kingdom together with Denmark and the Faroe Islands under what is known as the Unity of the Realm. Two of the major policy areas which are controlled from Denmark are the security and foreign policies. Greenland does, however, have its own Government, a few representa>ons abroad and many Greenlanders aspire for independence in the future. In this podcast I’ll talk to 3 experts to try to understand if it is even possible for Greenland to ever fully govern the foreign and security policies by itself – and what the consequences of this would be. -

2 X 160 MW Coal Based Thermal Power Plant EXECUTIVE
PPN POWER GENERATING COMPANY PVT. LTD 2 x 160 MW Coal based Thermal Power Plant EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction PPN Power Generating Company Pvt. Ltd. (PPN) having its corporate office at Chennai, owns and operates a Combined Cycle Power Station of 330.5 MW capacity at villages of Pillaiperumalnallur and Manikkapangu of Tharangambadi Taluk of Nagapattinam District, Tamil Nadu. The existing plant is designed for 100% natural gas firing or 100% naphtha firing or a mixture of natural gas and naphtha firing ( 70 % : 30%). Presently plant is operated using 100 % naphtha due to shortage of gas from PY-01 off shore well. Since the prospects of availability of gas is remote, PPN is now planning to expand the power plant capacity from 330.5 MW to 490.5 MW by installing 2 x 160 MW coal based thermal power plant in existing plant premises. PPN has appointed Fichtner Consulting Engineers (India) Pvt. Ltd., Chennai as their Consultant/ Engineer for the preparation of Feasibility Report of the Project. This Feasibility report is prepared based on the MOEF guidelines dated 30th December 2010 for obtaining environmental clearance. The objective of this Feasibility Report is to establish the technical and commercial feasibility of the project giving details such as the site features, basic plant configuration, salient technical features and financial parameters of the proposed 2 x 160 MW Thermal Power Plant. Project Description The proposed power project will be located adjacent to the existing combined cycle power plant location. The proposed site is located in Pillaiperumalnallur and Manikkapangu villages near Thirukkadaiyur in Tharangambadi Taluka of Nagapatinam District, Tamil Nadu. -
Rethinking Bilingualism
Rethinking Bilingualism A sociolinguistic analysis of language planning and education legislation in Greenland Ivalu Søvndahl Pedersen Thesis Submitted for the Degree: Master of Philosophy in Indigenous Studies Faculty of Social Science, University of Tromsø Norway, November 2009 Acknowledgements Thanks to My supervisor Anna-Riitta Lindgren at the Department of Language and Linguistics at Tromsø University. Jennifer Dunn at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, for proofreading this thesis. Anna Margrethe Helene Lange for kindly letting me use the photograph on the front page, that shows Anna herself and her friend. My roommates Heidi Reinholdtsen, Henriette Moseng and Lill Tove Veimæl for giving me a joyful home in Tromsø while writing this thesis. My parents Lisbeth Søvndahl Pedersen and Bruno Hansen. My grandmother ningiu , Gerda Søvndahl Pedersen, my little brother Jakob Søvndahl Skovaa and my stepfather Carl-Aage Skovaa. Abstract Many indigenous peoples’ languages in the world are endangered. But the special case in Greenland is the fact that Greenlandic is not an endangered language, even though less than 56,000 people speak Greenlandic. In fact, Greenlandic is spreading in Greenlandic society. The challenge in Greenland is rather how to educate Greenlanders to become functionally bilingual in Greenlandic and Danish, considering the vast varieties of bilingual skills that exist. Greenland has been a Danish colony since 1721 but achieved Home Rule in 1979 and an increased form of self-determination called ‘Self Rule’ in 2009. With the introduction of Self Rule the Greenlandic language has raised its status and become the official language in Greenland. Greenland is dependent on the annual block grant that it receives from the Danish state. -
