Among the various systems of governments in the world, democratic form of government, with all its shortcomings, whether direct or through elected representatives, is considered an ideal form of government. Even though no consensus existed on the definition of democracy, the characteristics of legal equality, freedom and rule of law are identified as the foundations of democracy. These characteristics of democracy are reflected in all eligible citizens being equal before the law and having equal access to legislative processes such as contesting in elections and occupying public offices, the right to form political associations and to exercise franchise. An important legislative process in a democratic government is election, whereby the population chooses an individual or a group of people to hold public offices. In today’s world, almost all the sovereign states have adopted the ideology of democracy directly and otherwise.In either way, the behavior of the voters in election is the most important thing in any democratic country. Theoretical Aspect of Voting Behavior The study of voting activity gained momentum in the late 1940s through the behavior school of thought also known as ‘Behaviouralism’. The study of political actors as well as the voters in democratic countries increased day by day and critics also developed the Post-Behavioral approach to create a more logical and deep inquiry into the world politics. The theoretical model of voting behavior was first developed by Lazarsfield, Berelson, Gaudetin(1944) in their work‘The People’s Choice’whose main work originated from the Colombia University, also known as the ‘Sociological Model’. This model or school of thought focuses its study mainly on the influences of social factors.1Another theory was developed by the School of Rochester. This school had its base on the work of Anthony Downs’ ‘An Economic Theory of Democracy’published in 1957. This theory draws attention to the economy of the state and it was known as the model of economic voting, sometime it was also referred as the rational choice theory.2 Another important approach was developed in 1960 by the School of Michigan that later came to be known as the psychological model of voting behavior. This approach draw its main source from the work of Angus Campbell, Philip Converse, Warren Miller and Donald Stokes that assume party identification is the main factor behind the behavior of the voters. Their work ‘The American Voter’ published in 1960 paved the way for the study of election process in America. From the above school of thought other theories were also developed to have a deep study of voting behavior, some of them are, the field theory, the cognitive theory, the psychodynamic theory, the humanistic Theory and the converging theories.3 Following are a few explanations of these theories. The field theory is an approach to find out the voter intentions in elections. It mainly relies on systematic research design and also employed a probability sampling method to draw the necessity sample which later became an interview through open-ended questions. This theory gives emphasis on the measurement of 1RuiAntunes. (2010). Theoretical models of voting behavior. Escola Superior de Educação - InstitutoPolitécnico de Coimbra. Pp 145-169. 2Ibid., p 145. 3 Ibid p 149 2 attitudes and perceptions, and it also believed that variables like age, sex, education and economic status of the candidate as important factors. And systematic field research is necessary under this theory to find out the determinants of voting behavior. The cognitive theory pays attention on the theory of causal attribution and a theory of balance. This theory seeks an account for the processes that are involved in perceiving other persons, their behavior and their personal characteristics. According to this theory the origin and the adjustment attributed to that origin forms a causal unit, in that the origin causes the change.4 The next step is to investigate in general the relations between attitudes and causal units. With an improvement in technology after the Second World War and the invention of a computer, the theory of cognitive orientation was applied to the computer world. It was both appealing and easy to conceive of humans as information processing devices, receiving input from their environment (perception), processing the input (thinking), and converting it into output (action/decision). A simple explanation of cognitive orientationcan be given like this, cognitive psychology refers to the study of knowledge and how people use it or to the study of mental processes of perception, memory, and information processing by which the individual acquires knowledge, solves problems, and plans for the future. With the application to social phenomena, social cognition is concerned with how people make sense of other people and themselves. 4M. Visser. (1998). Five Theories of Voting action: Strategy and structure of psychological explanation. Doesburg: Author. Pp 44-47. 3 Further, the psychodynamic theory holds that all human behavioral and mental activity was ultimately motivated by a few basic drives, divided into two categories: sexual (including self-preservation) and aggressive drives. Self- preservative need is directly tied up with the modes of economic production and organization that is the sole basis of society. This theory also emphasises on the historical sociological approach to inquiring into the social basis of political system or political rule. The humanistic theory is similar with psychodynamic theory but with a little difference in terms of different variables in human nature. The humanistic theory believed in human behavior that life strivings and needs can be best understood by employing the phenomenological method of understanding on the one hand, and by studying biographical materials (like diaries and letters) on the other. Human life is about pleasure-need (satisfaction in sex, love and Ego- recognition), self-limiting adaptation (fitting in, belonging, security), creative expansion (self-expression, creative accomplishments), and integration (maintenance of inner psychic order). These basic strivings are all present from the beginning of life, but each plays a prominent role in each phase. As an end goal, fulfilment represents the attainment of something the person believes in, which requires the balancing of expansion and adaption, satisfaction and internal order in the course of the person's life. When a person fails to pursue his end and goal of life, i.e. fails to realize his potential, this may lead to psychological problems of conflict, anxiety and guilt, the curing of which is the main area of humanistic psychotherapy.

  • Nandini Sundar
    Interning Insurgent Populations: the buried histories of Indian Democracy Nandini Sundar Darzo (Mizoram) was one of the richest villages I have ever seen in this part of the world. There were ample stores of paddy, fowl and pigs. The villagers appeared well-fed and well-clad and most of them had some money in cash. We arrived in the village about ten in the morning. My orders were to get the villagers to collect whatever moveable property they could, and to set their own village on fire at seven in the evening. I also had orders to burn all the paddy and other grain that could not be carried away by the villagers to the new centre so as to keep food out of reach of the insurgents…. I somehow couldn’t do it. I called the Village Council President and told him that in three hours his men could hide all the excess paddy and other food grains in the caves and return for it after a few days under army escort. They concealed everything most efficiently. Night fell, and I had to persuade the villagers to come out and set fire to their homes. Nobody came out. Then I had to order my soldiers to enter every house and force the people out. Every man, woman and child who could walk came out with as much of his or her belongings and food as they could. But they wouldn’t set fire to their homes. Ultimately, I lit a torch myself and set fire to one of the houses.

Carrying capacity is a concept that has been extensively applied in tourism and leisure studies since the 1960s, but its appearance can be date back to the 1930s. It may be viewed as an important thought in the eventual emergence of sustainability discussion, it has become less important in recent years as sustainability and its associated concepts have come to dominate planning on the management of tourism and its impacts. But the study of carrying capacity analysis is still an important tool to know the potentiality and future impact in tourism sector. Thus, up to some extent carrying capacity analysis is important study for tourist destinations and states like Mizoram. Mizoram is a small and young state with few thousands of visitors that visit the state every year.

  • Mamata Banerjee to Centre: Send NHRC to Tripura
    TELEGRAPH, Online, 29.8.2021 Page No. 0, Size:(0)cms X (0)cms. Telegraph Mamata Banerjee to Centre: Send NHRC to Tripura Her reaction came on a day a Trinamul joining event in Badharghat was attacked by suspected ruling BJP members, leaving three TMC workers injured Chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday dared the BJP-led Centre to send the National Human Rights Commission to Tripura over attacks on her party supporters “every day”. Her reaction came on a day a Trinamul joining event in Badharghat, 6km from Agartala, was attacked by suspected ruling BJP members, leaving three Trinamul workers injured. Three Trinamul student activists also received minor injuries at a college in Unakoti, some 150km from Agartala, when they were celebrating the foundation day of the Trinamul Chhatra Parishad. Will you send teams of National Human Rights Commission only to Bengal? Why were such teams not sent to Tripura...? Our people are attacked by goons there every day,” she said. Tripura BJP spokesperson Nabendu Bhattacharyya dismissed the allegations. Mamata alleged in her virtual address from Calcutta that even cops posted for the security of Trinamul leaders had not been spared. “They received injuries and were not allowed medicines or injection,” she said. She also predicted “khela hobe (her successful Bengal poll cry) in Tripura. She reminded BJP leaders that they did not allow her MPs to visit Assam during the NRC protest there. Her nephew and Trinamul all-India general secretary Abhishek Banerjee warned the BJP that Trinamul would come to power in Tripura in 2023. “Trinamul will form the government in Tripura under the leadership of Mamata Banerjee.
