Volume 12, Number 1, Winter 1980 COMMENT Human Rights in Iran Under the Shah by Professor Richard W. Cottam* I. INTRODUCTION FOR ANY ADVOCATE of human rights, the events surrounding the Iranian revolution must be a source of continuing agony. But for any- one interested in gaining a sharper understanding of some of the basic issues concerning human rights, the dramatic developments in Iran should be highly instructive. The early summary executions in Iran and the later public trials conducted by revolutionary Islamic courts were properly condemned by western human rights advocates as failing to ap- proach the requirements of due process. Yet the great majority of those who were tried and executed were charged with terrible violations of the most elemental human rights; and the testimony of the accused, so rich in detail and so internally consistent as to be credible,1 tends to confirm the worst charges against the Shah's regime.

  • Administration of Dir Under Nawab Shah Jehan
    Pakistan Vol. 49, 2013 Annual Research Journal ADMINISTRATION OF DIR UNDER NAWAB SHAH JEHAN Gohar Ali Shah Abstract Dir the land of lofty mountains, snow peaks, lush green valley, transparent streams and industrious people, remained shrouded for a long time in obscurity, unknown to the outside world. It is very difficult to say that how and when Dir became the residential area but it must be said that due to the beauty, plenty and security, this area will have become the residential area from long age. Dir was invaded by Alexander, than came under the Budhist, the Mughal and important event was the settlement of the Yousafzai tribe in the area by defeating Swatis and Dilazaks in sixteenth century. The followers of Mullah Ilyas ruled for more than three centuries, and then a period of politicization and democratization started. Muhammad Shah Jehan ascended the throne after the death of his father Nawab Aurangzeb khan in November, 1924 and declared himself as the new Nawab of Dir and ruled till 1960. He was a tyrant ruler and ruled with an iron hand. He introduced some administrative reforms in army, judiciary, executive, and in legislation in his principality. His rule was not different than a dictator’s. He snatched the power from his father and imposed his own constitution to show his mighty power. This paper is an attempt to discuss the administrative setup of Nawab Shah Jehan in detail. The data has been collected from books and personal interviews. Keywords Dir, Nawab Shah Jehan, Administration, Jirgah, Shariah, Dastural Amal. Nawab Muhammad Shah Jehan After the death of Nawab Aurangzeb his son Shah Jehan succeeded his father as the Nawab of Dir and ruled from November 1925 to 8th October 1960.

  • Post-Rana Ties Between Nepali Royalty and National Park Staff
    Kings as Wardens and Wardens as Kings: Post-Rana Ties between Nepali Royalty and National Park Staff Nina Bhatt This article locates Nepali national park staff (game scouts, rangers and park wardens) in the context of their historical ties with monarchy. The pre-andolan (1951–90) accounts by park staff show how their individual and collective identities were shaped through encounters with royalty, which informed their everyday practices. The social relations, professional goals, and familial desires envisioned by government servants were linked to their perceived closeness with the Nepali kings and through specific events such as royal hunts. Historically, park staff have displayed particularly strong regard and allegiances for the royal family since Nepali kings sanctioned much of Nepal’s early conservation efforts and because monarchs espoused close ties with these officials in the setting up of national parks. I NTRODUCTION NATIONAL PARK STAFF in Nepal have traditionally viewed the Nepalese royal family in varied and often mutually conflicting ways.1 Royals were avid hunters, yet be- came selfless conservationists.2 Royals were the consumers of nature for private amusement, yet in quick succession they demarcated forested lands in the interest of public consumption and national good.3 For most game park staff, any en- counters with the royal family in the nature preserves are a source of inspiration fundamental to identity construction.4 The 1990 revolution (andolan) was a watershed in the relationship between royalty and rangers.5 During the pre-andolan period (1951–90),6 the royal family’s interest in nature and in the well-being of park bureaucrats (expressed by frequent personal visits) was crucial in shaping a largely positive world-view for government officials.

  • The Abolition of Monarchy and Constitution Making in Nepal
    THE KING VERSUS THE PEOPLE（BHANDARI） Article THE KING VERSUS THE PEOPLE: THE ABOLITION OF MONARCHY AND CONSTITUTION MAKING IN NEPAL Surendra BHANDARI Abstract The abolition of the institution of monarchy on May 28, 2008 marks a turning point in the political and constitutional history of Nepal. This saga of constitutional development exemplifies the systemic conflict between people’s’ aspirations for democracy and kings’ ambitions for unlimited power. With the abolition of the monarchy, the process of making a new constitution for the Republic of Nepal has started under the auspices of the Constituent Assembly of Nepal. This paper primarily examines the reasons or causes behind the abolition of monarchy in Nepal. It analyzes the three main reasons for the abolition of monarchy. First, it argues that frequent slights and attacks to constitutionalism by the Nepalese kings had brought the institution of the monarchy to its end. The continuous failures of the early democratic government and the Supreme Court of Nepal in bringing the monarchy within the constitutional framework emphatically weakened the fledgling democracy, but these failures eventually became fatal to the monarchical institution itself. Second, it analyzes the indirect but crucial role of India in the abolition of monarchy. Third, it explains the ten-year-long Maoist insurgency and how the people’s movement culminated with its final blow to the monarchy. Furthermore, this paper also analyzes why the peace and constitution writing process has yet to take concrete shape or make significant process, despite the abolition of the monarchy. Finally, it concludes by recapitulating the main arguments of the paper.

  • Sunny Singh London Metropolitan University [email protected]
    The Road to Rāmar ājya : Analysing Shah Rukh Khan’s Parallel Text in Commercial Hindi Cinema Sunny Singh London Metropolitan University [email protected] This paper attempts to trace the construction of Shah Rukh Khan’s parallel text with explicit references to the Hindu epic Rāmāyana through an analysis of key cinematic texts produced from 1995 to 2007. The analysis follows the development of Shah Rukh Khan’s star text as a growing narrative drawn from, and interacting with, the epic and its protagonist, Rāma , and his idealised reign, Rāmar ājya , which is used in India to refer to an epoch of social stability. In addition, the paper explores how the star’s parallel text intersects the aspirations of a nation poised at the edge of monumental change, and the ways in which it challenges and subverts the popularly accepted notions of the growth of Hindu nationalist politics in the country in the late-1990s, finally leading to the assertion of a new, post-Hindutva, post-globalization identity as an Indian Muslim. Keywords: Shah Rukh Khan; India; stars; Bollywood; Rāmāyana . Este estudio intenta delinear la construcción del texto paralelo del actor Shah Rukh Khan con referencias explícitas al clásico épico hindú Rāmāyana por medio de análisis de textos cinematográficos del actor producidos entre 1995 y 2007. El análisis demuestra el desarrollo del texto paralelo de Khan como una narrativa basada en—y dialogando con—el clásico épico, su protagonista, Rāma , y su reino ideal, el Rāmar ājya . Además, el ensayo explora las maneras en que dicho texto llega a representar las pretensiones de una nación al borde de cambios monumentales, y las formas en las que desafía y subvierte las ideas generalmente aceptadas del desarrollo de nacionalismo hindú en el país durante la década de los noventa.
