Book Synopsis Imagining Punjab, Punjabi and Punjabiat in the Transnational Era by : Anjali Gera Roy
Download or read book Imagining Punjab, Punjabi and Punjabiat in the Transnational Era written by Anjali Gera Roy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book moves away from originary myths of region and identity that have dominated academic and mediatized representations of Punjab, a land-locked region divided between India and Pakistan after the Partition of 1947, and instead focuses on the role of the imagination in producing Punjab. It deconstructs Punjab as an ethno-spatial, ethno-linguistic and ethno-cultural construct produced by the communities who dwell there, those who have left it and those formed by new narratives of the region.By isolating imaginings of Punjab that are not centred on exclusivist regional, linguistic, sectarian or caste perspectives, contributions to this book propose the concept of free-flowing cartographies in relation to Punjab, which facilitate its imaginings as a geographical region, a social construct and a state of consciousness. The region is simultaneously imagined as a small place, a neighbourhood, a city, and a village, but also as a performative practice and a certain ways of doing things. Through focusing on a number of Punjabi spaces and communities and engaging with Punjab as a geographical region, social construct and state of consciousness, the papers in the book hope to contribute to broader debates on transnationalism, postnationalism, micronationalism, and new identity narratives emerging in the twenty first century. This book was originally published as a special issue of South Asian Diaspora.

Book Synopsis Punjabi Baroque and Other Memories of Architecture by : Gautam Bhatia
Download or read book Punjabi Baroque and Other Memories of Architecture written by Gautam Bhatia and published by Penguin Group. This book was released on 1994 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ýIn most urban (Indian) areas, a new architecture has flowered. And although it is impractical and stupid and fanciful and gross, it is...creating its own vocabulary and its own characteristic styles.ý Architect Gautam Bhatia is the picaresque hero travelling through a world of architecture completely dictated by personal idiosyncracies. In this witty, erudite book he argues that the well-to-do Indian measures his success by the ýhomeý he builds. To convert his fantasies into blueprint and give them shape in concrete and marble, he summons the architect. The architect has his own ideas, but these are thwarted at every turn and in the end his only real function is to juggle local by-laws to make room for whatever bizarre structure he is eventually commanded to build. These architectural monstrosities mushrooming all over Indiaýs cities defy the limits set on them by the size of plot or location and are so outrageous that it has become necessary to coin new terms to describe them: Chandni Chowk Chippendale, Tamil Tiffany, Marwari Pragmatism, Bania Gothic, Anglo-Indian Rococo, Punjabi Baroque... The author gives a guided tour through the intricacies of the new architecture in this gloriously funny, often hard-hitting book.

Book Synopsis Asian Teachers in British Schools by : Paul Avtar Singh Ghuman
Download or read book Asian Teachers in British Schools written by Paul Avtar Singh Ghuman and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is scarcity of research and literature on ethnic minority teachers. This book makes a contribution towards the understanding of the personal and professional concerns of Asian teachers of two generations: the "older generation" who migrated to Britain during the 60s and 70s and the "younger" generation, the majority of whom were born and educated in the UK. Three salient issues emerged from the inquiry which are interlinked. Firstly, the older generation felt that their professional development and promotion have been seriously affected by the degree of racism which they have met from some of their white colleagues. Secondly, the majority of younger generation Asian teachers prefer to teach in multicultural schools, which has far-reaching consequences for the development of a tolerant and just multicultural society. Lastly, the younger generation's perceived anxiety and apprehension, namely that they would meet racism in all-white schools, comes through.

Download or read book The Sikhs written by W. H. McLeod and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sikhs, a colorful and controversial people about whom little is generally known, have been the subject of much hypothetical speculation. Their non-conformist behavior, except to their own traditions, and their fierce independence, even to demanding autonomy, have recently attracted world-wide attention. Hew McLeod, internationally known scholar of Sikh studies, provides a just and accurate description in his introduction to this religious community from northern India now numbering about sixteen million people, exploring their history, doctrine, and literature. The Sikhs begins by giving an overview of the people's history, then covers the origins of the Sikh tradition, dwelling on controversies surrounding the life and doctrine of the first Master, Guru Nanak (1469-1539). The book surveys the subsequent life of the community with emphasis on the founding of the Khalsa, the order that gives to Sikhs the insignia by which they are best known. The remaining sections concern Sikh doctrine, the problem of who should be regarded as a Sikh, and a survey of Sikh literature. Finally, the book considers the present life of the community--its dispersion around the world to Asia, Australasia, North America, Africa, and Europe, and its involvement in the current trials of the Punjab. Sikh culture is believed to have been settled and unchanging from the time of the Gurus onwards.The Sikhs, a major new work by a leading authority, reveals that this is a very misleading view. McLeod treats a variety of questions sympathetically and in so doing he establishes a new understanding for students of religion and for all those interested in current events in India.
Book Synopsis The Guru Drinks Bourbon? by : Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse
Download or read book The Guru Drinks Bourbon? written by Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2016-11-22 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An enlightening, accessible, and highly entertaining guide to the guru-disciple relationship, the heart of Tibetan Buddhism The humility and compassionate activity of the Dalai Lama is something many people can connect with, but how can one understand the stories about some other Buddhist teachers’ unorthodox behavior? The centrality of and reliance on a guru is one of most misunderstood elements of Tibetan Buddhism—and one that is most often veiled in mystery. Because the guru can and will use whatever means it takes to wake us up, this relationship may require us to drop our most deeply held beliefs and expectations. Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse addresses some of the most misunderstood aspects of this powerful relationship and gives practical advice on making the most of this precious opportunity for transformation. Through stories and classical examples, he shows how to walk the path with eyes wide open, with critical-thinking skills sharpened and equipped to analyze the guru, before taking the leap.
Book Synopsis Social Control and Deviance by : Ali Wardak
Download or read book Social Control and Deviance written by Ali Wardak and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2000: This book provides an empirical account of social control and deviance in a South Asian community in Scotland. Focusing on Edinburgh’s Pakistani community, the book examines the social order of this particular community and the ways it is maintained. It explores the various social institutions and processes that operate as mechanisms of (informal) social control within the community. This book also examines the ways the second generation South Asians relate to their community and the extent to which they conform, or deviate from its norms. Criminological social control theory is used as an analytical framework for explaining deviance. It is concluded that the South Asian youngsters (boys) who have weak / broken bonds with their community are more likely to deviate from its norms. The book further concludes that social control and deviance are intricately interrelated. While social control defines what is deviance, the latter has important implications for the former: repeated occurrence of deviance prompts agencies of social control to redefine and gradually normalize deviance.

I will be recommending to everyone I know' Nikita Gill 'I'm a girl and northern and brown, didn't you know? A triple threat!' Trying to navigate her Indian world at home and the British world outside her front door, Anita Rani was a girl who didn't fit in anywhere. She was always destined to stand out: from playing Mary in her otherwise all white nursery nativity to growing up in eighties Yorkshire with her Punjabi family, spending evenings in the factory her parents owned whilst trying to figure out how best to get rid of hair that seemed to be growing EVERYWHERE. Anita shares the lessons she wishes her younger self could have known: 'Freedom is Complicated', 'You Will Fall in Love and Be Loved' and, most importantly, 'Your Anger is Legitimate'. How did she manage to become the powerhouse she is, whilst battling against being too white inside her home and too brown outside of it? This story of a second-generation British Indian woman up north is also a tale of tenacity and a life lived with positivity and humour. If you have ever felt alone, different, or just not the right sort of girl, this is the book for you.
