Their topics range widely over time, from prehistoric rock art to mediaeval Buddhist stupas and wall paintings, as well as early modern castle architecture, the inter-regional trade in silk brocades, and the challenges of 21st century conservation. Taken together, these studies complement each other to provide a detailed view of Ladakh’s varied cultural inheritance in the light of the latest research.

Book Synopsis Economic & Social Dimensions: Engine for Growth by : Dr. Rayeesa Akhter
Download or read book Economic & Social Dimensions: Engine for Growth written by Dr. Rayeesa Akhter and published by Book Bazooka Publication. This book was released on 2019-11-11 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The promotion of competitiveness has been seen as a way of achieving desirable changes in economy and society at the cost of growth and development. However, it should be noted that productivity and growth that is accompanied by increasing social imbalance to achieve desirable changes in economy and society has sometimes negative consequences for the growth and development. The chapters compiled in this book from economical and social science researchers have generated awareness about the sustainable amalgam of these three subjects. This book contains 12 chapters from different scholars within the country. In fact, these chapters will be quite helpful for students who are keen to learn the multidisciplinary approach in these fields. Since the growth and development is taking place at a very fast rate, there is a need to promote such type of studies so that people will not adopt the measures to gain economy at the cost of environment. This book can be used as a reference book for future researchers for their multidisciplinary approach. We do not intend for this book to be scientifically and technically complete. In fact, many complex multidisciplinary issues have been simplified by using this approach.
Book Synopsis Contesting Conservation by : Saloni Gupta
Download or read book Contesting Conservation written by Saloni Gupta and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores today’s changing intellectual climate, wherein understanding politics at different levels from global to local is considered mandatory in order to appraise the outcome of nature conservation interventions. By carefully examining two such processes – the ban on shahtoosh trade and the ‘National Afforestation Programme’ in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, the book reveals how these processes are influenced by politics at different levels – from their introduction at the macro-level to their implementation at the micro-level – and in turn become coloured by the agendas and interests of the various stakeholders involved. Throughout the book, one priority is to give a voice to the poor resource-users who have been traditionally dependent on wildlife and forest resources for mere subsistence. Yet, these same people are who bear the brunt of nature conservation costs, rather than those actors who are responsible for the most serious violations in pursuit of greater profits. Contemporary Environmental Sociology is chiefly characterised by its focus on power relations in resource conservation and management. In ‘political ecology’ literature, too – especially after recognising the paradoxes and limitations of approaches such as ‘sustainable development’, ‘sustainable livelihoods’ and ‘community based natural resource management’ – there is a growing concern for critical analyses of multi-level politics in connection with nature conservation. The purpose of the book is not to challenge the gravity of environmental concerns, but to question the dominance of conservation interests over the subsistence needs of local communities, and to strike a balance between environmental and social justice. It argues that, unless and until more just accountability for the affected populations is ensured, conservation policies are unlikely to meet the goals of sustainable resource management. Given its critical engagement with human-nature conflicts in Jammu and Kashmir, the book offers a unique resource for students and scholars of Environmental Sociology, Political Ecology, Natural Resources Management, Conflict Studies and Human Rights Studies.
