Book excerpt: The cacophony of modern life can be deafening, leaving us feeling frazzled and uneasy. In this warm, wise book, Prem Rawat teaches us how to turn down the noise to "hear ourselves". Once we learn to truly "hear ourselves" and the voice of peace within, then we can hold that within us as we face all the noise of the world. The culmination of a lifetime of study, Swayam Ki Awaaz lays out the crucial steps we can use to focus on the voice within. With one straightforward yet deeply profound question, Prem Rawat helps us to focus, to be present: Am I conscious of where I am today and what I want to experience in this world? Packed with powerful insights and compelling stories, Swayam ki Awaaz introduces readers to an ancient line of practical wisdom that enlightens us to a simple way to listen. By doing so, Prem Rawat reveals, we can "profoundly change our understanding of ourselves, those around us, and our lives. "

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India has the second largest number of Internet users in the world today. In response to this twenty-first century wave of rapid Internet growth and usage, journalism in India is now mainly digital. Challenging the existing forms of print legacies and old media networks are a number of digital media startups that have fuelled and radically altered consumption of information by providing different and innovative forms of content strategies and distribution strategies. These include profit-based content startups, aggregation-based startups, and non-profit startups. Digital First uses a longitudinal case study approach to analyze key digital media startups in the Indian journalism industry today: notably, The Print, The Wire, The Citizen, NewsLaundry, ScoopWhoop, PARI, InShorts, Youth ki Awaaz, Scroll.in, Khabar Lahariya, AltNews, The Logical Indian among others. These organizations represent different strategies, approaches, and ideologies. The book discusses ways in which these startups began, and have grown, their organizational structures and policies, and their varied business models.
Book Synopsis Studying Youth, Media and Gender in Post-Liberalisation India by : Nadja-Christina Schneider
Download or read book Studying Youth, Media and Gender in Post-Liberalisation India written by Nadja-Christina Schneider and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2014-11-21 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume aims to look both at as well as beyond the ‘Delhi Gang Rape’ through the lens of Indian Media Studies. The editors consider it a critical event, or rather critical media event that needs to be contextualized within a rapidly changing, diversifying and globalizing Indian society which is as much confronted with new ruptures, asymmetries and inequalities as it may still be shaped by the old-established structures of a patriarchal social order. But the volume also looks beyond the ‘Delhi Gang Rape’ and introduces other related thematic areas of an emerging research field which links Youth, Media and Gender Studies.

Book Synopsis Locating Race by : Malini Johar Schueller
Download or read book Locating Race written by Malini Johar Schueller and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2009-01-08 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Locating Race provides a powerful critique of theories and fictions of globalization that privilege migration, transnationalism, and flows. Malini Johar Schueller argues that in order to resist racism and imperialism in the United States we need to focus on local understandings of how different racial groups are specifically constructed and oppressed by the nation-state and imperial relations. In the writings of Black Nationalists, Native American activists, and groups like Partido Nacional La Raza Unida, the author finds an imagined identity of post-colonial citizenship based on a race- and place-based activism that forms solidarities with oppressed groups worldwide and suggests possibilities for a radical globalism.

Download or read book Pio Gama Pinto written by Shiraz Durrani and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2018-10-19 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pio Gama Pinto was born in Kenya on March 31, 1927. He was assassinated in Nairobi on February 24, 1965. In his short life, he became a symbol of anti-colonial and anti-imperialist struggles in Kenya and India. He was actively involved in Goa's struggle against Portuguese colonialism and in Mau Mau during Kenya's war of independence. For this, he was detained by the British colonial authorities in Kenya from 1954-59. His contribution to the struggle for liberation for working people spanned two continents - Africa and Asia. And it covered two phases of imperialism - colonialism in Kenya and Goa and neo-colonialism in Kenya after independence. His enemies saw no way of stopping the intense, lifelong struggle waged by Pinto - except through an assassin's bullets. But his contribution, his ideas, and his ideals are remembered and upheld even today by people active in liberation struggles. This book does not aim or claim to be a comprehensive record on Pio Gama Pinto, just the beginning of the long journey necessary to record the history of Kenya from an anti-imperialist perspective. It introduces readers to voices of many people who have written about Pinto to build up as clear a picture of Pinto as possible. In that spirit, it seeks to make history available to those whose story it is - people of Kenya, Africa and progressive people around the world.

Book Synopsis Transnational Legal Activism in Global Value Chains by : Miriam Saage-Maaß
Download or read book Transnational Legal Activism in Global Value Chains written by Miriam Saage-Maaß and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book documents and analyses the various interventions – legal, political, and even artistic – that followed the Ali Enterprises factory fire in Karachi, Pakistan, in 2012. It illuminates the different substantive and procedural aspects of the legal proceedings and negotiations between the various local and transnational actors implicated in the Ali Enterprises fire, as well as the legal and policy reforms sparked by the incident. This endeavour serves to embed these legal cases and reform efforts in the larger context of human and labour rights protection and global value chain governance. It also offers a concrete case study relevant for ongoing debates around the role of transnational approaches in making human rights litigation, advocacy, and law reform more effective. In this regard, the book interrogates and critically reflects on such legal campaigns and local and transnational reform work with a view to future transformative legal and social activism.
Download or read book The Sun Never Sets written by Vivek Bald and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2013-07-22 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sun Never Sets collects the work of a generation of scholars who are enacting a shift in the orientation of the field of South Asian American studies which has, until recently, largely centred on literary and cultural analyses of an affluent immigrant population. The contributors focus instead on the histories and political economy of South Asian migration to the U.S. - and upon the lives, work, and activism of specific, often unacknowledged, migrant populations - presenting a more comprehensive vision of the South Asian presence in the United States. Tracking the shifts in global power that have influenced the paths and experiences of migrants, from expatriate Indian maritime workers at the turn of the century, to Indian nurses during the Cold War, to post-9/11 detainees and deportees caught in the crossfire of the "War on Terror," these essays reveal how the South Asian diaspora has been shaped by the contours of U.S. imperialism. Driven by a shared sense of responsibility among the contributing scholars to alter the profile of South Asian migrants in the American public imagination, they address the key issues that impact these migrants in the U.S., on the subcontinent, and in circuits of the transnational economy. Taken together, these essays provide tools with which to understand the contemporary political and economic conjuncture and the place of South Asian migrants within it. Vivek Bald is Assistant Professor of Comparative Media Studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and author of Bengali Harlem and the Lost Histories of South Asian America. Miabi Chatterji received her PhD from New York University in American Studies. She serves on the Board of Directors of the RESIST Foundation and works with non-profit organizations such as NYUFASP, a group of NYU faculty working for shared governance at their institution.

This book was released on 2022-06-10 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a highly connected world, and the events and happenings in one country directly and/or indirectly impact other countries. From bilateral relations to multilateral arrangements, from diplomacy to sanctions and from globalization to protectionism, the role of small and developing states, reforms of global governance structures, and processes, non-state actors and international policy development are the areas that deserve a concerted understanding. To advance this understanding, the IMPRI Center for International Relations and Strategic Studies (CIRSS) initiated a discussion series – The State of International Affairs – #DiplomacyDialogue. Through the reach of the digital, it seeks to contribute to the world of tomorrow through ideas and ideation. Since 2020, DiplomacyDialogue has brought over one hundred experts comprising leaders across politics, government, business, media, civil society and academia. Over the past two years, these dialogues have reached to over three thousand individuals who registered to participate in these consequential deliberations. As countries make headway into becoming a responsible power in the new world order, the The State of International Affairs – #DiplomacyDialogue seeks to present the insights and analysis to scholars of international relations and those interested in the theories, dynamism, developments, trends in diplomacy, and foreign affairs. This book is a compendium of the deliberations of #DiplomacyDialogue during 2020-21, which provides a greater understanding of the complexities of unfolding events, trends, and geopolitics. Conducted via Zoom webinars and streamed live on Facebook, and later uploaded as high quality videos over YouTube and as #WebPolicyTalk: Live at IMPRI podcast, on Spotify and Google Podcasts, these events have elicited huge viewership and social media participation. These offer insights and learnings to bolster transformative actions and policy recommendations, and foster a resilient and more inclusive global society. This compendium aims to serve as a good resource to policymakers, diplomats, corporate and civil society leaders as well as researchers and students either working on or interested in international relations.
Book Synopsis Feminist Practices by : Mary Hawkesworth
Download or read book Feminist Practices written by Mary Hawkesworth and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-11-01 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classroom resource for instructors that includes full syllabi and teaching modules, Feminist Practices will be of interest to anyone who teaches in women’s, gender, and sexuality studies. Feminist Practices is intended for use in classrooms and to spark creative ideas for teaching a diverse array of topics. What makes a practice feminist? What is at stake in claiming the feminist label? Whether within a university context or in larger national and global ones, feminist projects involve challenging established relations of power (critique), envisioning alternative possibilities (theory), and employing activism to change social relations. By taking diverse forms of feminist practice as its focal point, this course reader investigates how to study the complexity of women’s and men’s lives in ways that take race, gender-power, ethnicity, class, and nationality seriously. Feminist Practices also shows how the production of such feminist knowledge challenges long-established beliefs about the world. Topics covered include • Gendered labor, • Commercialization of sexuality and reproduction, • Love and marriage in the twenty-first century, • Violence against women, • Varieties of feminist activism, and • Women’s leadership and governance. Feminist Practices draws upon articles published in Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society to explore the nature of feminist practices in the twenty-first century and the range of issues these practices address. Organized thematically the collection captures the complexity of a global movement that emerges in the context of local struggles over diverse modes of injustice.
Book Synopsis The New Urban Immigrant Workforce: Innovative Models for Labor Organizing by : Sarumathi Jayaraman
Download or read book The New Urban Immigrant Workforce: Innovative Models for Labor Organizing written by Sarumathi Jayaraman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking look at contemporary immigrant labor organizing and mobilization draws on participant observation, ethnographic interviews, historical documents, and new case studies of three organizing drives. The expert contributors provide tangible evidence of immigrants' eagerness for collective action and organizing. Parting company with mainstream thinking, they argue lucidly that immigrants' propensity to organize stems from social isolation. Many of the contributors highlight a specific ethnic group and special labor niches, such as the dominance of Punjabi in the New York City taxi industry. Each case study examines efforts beyond the conventional unions to organize the immigrants, such as worker centers and independent syndicalism on the job. An essential text for courses in labor-relations and immigrant studies, the book takes into account the latest debates in the fields of labor studies, urban studies, sociology, and political science.
Book Synopsis The Pluriverse of Human Rights: The Diversity of Struggles for Dignity by : Boaventura De Sousa Santos
Download or read book The Pluriverse of Human Rights: The Diversity of Struggles for Dignity written by Boaventura De Sousa Santos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impasse currently affecting human rights as a language used to express struggles for dignity is, to a large extent, a reflection of the epistemological and political exhaustion which blights the global North. Since the global hegemony of human rights as a language for human dignity is nowadays incontrovertible, the question of whether it can be used in a counter-hegemonic sense remains open. Inspired by struggles from all corners of the world that reveal the potential but, above all, the limitations of human rights, this book offers a highly conditional response. The prevailing notion of human rights today, as the hegemonic language of human dignity, can only be resignified on the basis of answers to simple questions: why does so much unjust human suffering exist that is not considered a violation of human rights? Do other languages of human dignity exist in the world? Are these other languages compatible with the language of human rights? Obviously, we can only find satisfactory answers to these questions if we are able to envisage a radical transformation of what is nowadays known as human rights. Herein lies the challenge posed by the Epistemologies of the South: reconciling human rights with the different languages and forms of knowledge born out of struggles for human dignity.
