Download or read book The Brothers Bihari written by Sankarshan Thakur and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laloo Yadav and Nitish Kumar, chalk and cheese. One a charismatic populist, the other a shrewd introvert. Taken together, a mesmerizing duo: heroes to some, villains to others, champions of the underdog yet imperious of manner; allies in youth, foes in mid-life, now ageing veterans. For a quarter of a century, the two by turns dictated the destiny of Bihar.What do Laloo and Nitish mean to Bihar? Here, for the first time, a revised and updated omnibus edition of Sankarshan Thakur's widely acclaimed biographies of the men. From one of India's finest journalists, this masterful narrative--part personal memoir, part political portraiture, part unsparing perspective--is essential reading to understand Bihar. In the lives of the two giants also lies the arresting story of one of India's largest and most challenging states.

Download or read book Nitish Kumar and the Rise of Bihar written by Arun Sinha and published by Penguin Books India. This book was released on 2011 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conventional wisdom in Bihar's political circles was that development did not win votes. Nitish Kumar challenged that assumption and changed the face of the state. Born into a humble family in Bakhtiyarpur, Nitish joined the Lohiaite Socialist Party and built his constituency, literally day by day, forgoing a stable job to travel to distant villages, suffering both financial hardship and ridicule for the eight years it took him to win people's confidence. Veteran journalist Arun Sinha tells the story of Nitish Kumar's rise against the larger canvas of social and political upheaval in Bihar, exploring the emergent desire for equality that drove progressive movements from late 1960s onwards and brought about a regime change by the 1990s. After an initial association with Lalu Prasad Yadav, Nitish Kumar rejected identity politics, recognizing that Bihar had to transcend caste if it was to grow. Nitish Kumar and the Rise of Bihar is a clear-sighted study of Indian electoral politics that unfolds with the pace of a political drama, offering hard facts and an incisive analysis of the state's turbulent trajectory. Sinha steers the narrative deftly through the complex groupings of Bihar's political arena to reveal Nitish Kumar's acumen in bringing law and order, roads, education and health to the fore of governance. From feudal politics to caste identities, and finally to development Bihar could prove to be the model for India's post-Independence journey.

This book was released on 2023-12-27 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work looks back at the role Bihar played in the struggle for India's independence in the first decade after its separation from Bengal as a province in 1912, particularly through the archival material contained in the contemporary confidential government files preserved in the Bihar State Archives, Patna. It uncovers some significant facts and dimensions like rumor-mongering adopted as a mode of struggle by the revolutionaries against British rule during World War I and the establishment of parallel administration at different levels during the Non-Cooperation Movement by its local leaders in Bihar. While it scrutinizes the sorrowful tales of sufferings of the Indian people under British colonial rule, it also raises questions about how the hate politics and hate crimes under BJP's rule, particularly against Minorities and Dalits can be justified as less brutal than the brutalities committed under the tyrannical British rule? Or how the targetted use of draconian laws or law enforcing agencies against those who question its unconstitutional and repressive policies and communal or rather hate politics can be justified as just in independent India under democratic government, and the use of similar laws or law enforcing agencies as repressive and unjust under despotic British rule?

Book excerpt: For the first time from the Presidents, Prime Ministers, Army, Civil Servants, Business Heads, Actors, Farmers, Blue Collar Workers, Beggars, Poor, you name any job, professions, leaders, and countries all have gone on self-isolation. Can their coming on the same platform simultaneously help perceive the problems better, now since they can feel at least the same even if it's for a few months? All our superheroes from Superman, Spiderman, Shaktiman, Captain America, Wonder Woman, Batman, Hulk, Iron Man, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Harry Potter, Hermione, Ginny, Ron, Motu-Patlu, Chota Bheem, Viram-Betal, Bahadur-Bela, Mandrek-Lothar, Chacha Chaudhury -Saboo, Phantom and many more are all in self-imposed quarantine! Wow, what a turn of the new decade 2020!Bihar's own superman, do we have any? Well, none probably! The reason is the type of enemy which this superman if existed, would have to face. Bihar's Poverty Virus for which none of the superheroes have yet found any antibody. This is only with the people of the state and it's they who have to face this enemy and come out with their own self-generated antibodies. Let us first see what are the viruses affecting Bihar's economy in general.1. Flood and Scarce Rainfall simultaneously 2. Casteism in the DNA3. No work culture among babu's, and acute corruption4. Naxalism - ST related formation5. Law & Order and related Pan-India Image / Stereotype6. M-Y / Dalit-Maha Dalit / OBC - MBE / General Caste / Bhumiar / Rajput/ Brahman/ Vaishyas / Kayastha/ Kurmi/Koeri formations7. Legacy Zamindari system leftover8. Negligible Business houses9. Poor Education System10. Credit - Deposit Ratio 11. Negligible Banking System12. Zero Bihari Sub Nationalism13. No Ports14. Huge Moving Migrants population15. Negligible Urbanization16. Jobs creation does not match the population bust 17. Bihari's aspiration vs All India Aspiration huge gap18. Govt Structure: More for maintaining status co, then development and poverty alleviation 19. Industrialization of united Bihar was done with no Infrastructure development, it was to milk the mines and resources. So as soon the technology changed the industry collapsed.20. None of the Intellectuals and Educated Bihari's comes back or buy a house etc. just for investment purpose and connectivity21. Steel Guard - The Central Bureaucracy is mostly from different and richer states and their attachment to state is missing as for them it's the job place, not their home. The result in output is not a matter of life and death!22. Rail, Roads, Power Plants, Airports, Storages were heavily compromised even till 2020.23. Land Reforms failure due to the poor idea at the very outset with no understanding of the local sentiment. Utopian thinking introduced with no support and execution system built.24. Technology and Bihari in any walk of life was light-year away25. No Institute of repute was built for a state with a population currently 1/3 of the USA and almost of Bangladesh and Pakistan when Jharkhand was part of it. 54 MP state got just nothing even with so much political clout in independent India.26. Just no idea of building institution, be it for tourism, science, civil services, security, and army types NDA even though it is strategically located, having Nepal, Chicken Neck, Bangladesh, Burma and entire NE to keep the safety of India and also to maintain the Idea of Bharat intact.27. The political system of every state evolved with a new set of players. Bihar remained primarily feudal before Mandal era, 15 years of Sree Babu, then many Jagannath Mishra, KP Sinha, Bindeswari Dubey, and Karpoori Thakur followed by Laloo Ji for 15 years, Nitish Ji for 15 years. 45 years by just 3 leaders.28. China which took so much knowledge in ancient and medieval times from Bihar and built it as its own with some local customization was on the same status in the early '80s. In 1978 Bihar got JP and China got Deng. @SharadAuthor

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The struggling states of Bihar and Mithila serve as extreme examples of India‘s problems. Development here has been thwarted by a hereditary landed aristocracy supported by religion, casteism, custom, social stratification, tradition, and patterns of behaviour that can be traced back millennia. In turn, all these have been masterfully manipulated by co-opted politicians, who have turned politics into a veritable art form as this volume comprehensively demonstrates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oil Booms and Business Busts looks at how government policymaking shapes a puzzling phenomenon in economic development--the "curse" of natural resources. It investigates how oil and mineral wealth shapes a government's policies toward the business environment, entrepreneurs, and innovative activities. Other similar work either ignores the role of government policymaking in oil wealth, treats it as another effect of the rentier state, or dismisses it as illogical and incoherent. One might expect that in light of such abundances governments would encourage entrepreneurship and new businesses to compete and grow in the market, but Nimah Mazaheri shows that resource wealth instead incentivizes policymakers to focus on satisfying the interests of existing elites. They, more than oil-poor nations, institute barriers that impede the activities of domestic firms and entrepreneurs, with the result being unimpressive economic performance over the past half-century. This is the first book to examine how oil wealth affects non-elite actors who own the small and medium-sized firms that absorb a majority of the economic and labor force of these countries. Looking at two of the most important oil-producing countries in the world, Iran and Saudi Arabia, the book provides an original theory about the factors that shape a logic of policymaking in oil producing states. To extend his theory Mazaheri also looks at India, which is one of the world's main coal producers. He does this to show the effects of the gain and loss of a massive resource windfall on state policymaking toward the private sector. Ultimately Mazaheri argues that such policymaking impedes the development of a middle class and therefore democratization--a factor that can have overarching political repercussions for governmental stability.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Museum planners Gail Lord and Ngaire Blankenberg demonstrate how museums and cities are using their soft power to address some of the most important issues of our time.Soft power is the exercise of influence through attraction, persuasion, and agenda-setting rather than military or economic coercion.Thirteen of the world's leading museum and cultural experts from six continents explore the many facets of soft power in cities and museums to include: how it amplifies civic discourse, accelerates cultural change, and contributes to contextual intelligence among the great diversity of city dwellers, visitors, and policy makers. The authors urge city governments to embrace museums which so often are the signifiers of their cities, increasing real estate values while attracting investment, tourists, and creative workers. Lord and Blankenberg propose 32 practical strategies for museums and cities to activate their soft power and create thriving and sustainable communities.

Download or read book Partition as Border-Making written by Sayeed Ferdous and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically analyzes the Partition experiences from East Bengal in 1947 and its prolonged aftermath leading to the creation of Bangladesh in 1971. It looks at how newly emerged borderlands at the time of Partition affected lives and triggered prolonged consequences for the people living in East Bengal/Bangladesh. The author brings to the fore unheard voices and unexplored narratives, especially those relating the experience of different groups of Muslims in the midst of the falling apart of the unified Muslim identity. Drawing on in-depth ethnographic research and archival resources, the volume analyzes various themes such as partition literature, local narratives of border-making, smuggling, border violence, refugees, identity conflicts, border crossing, and experiences of the Bihari Muslims and the Hindus of East Pakistan, among others. A unique study in border-making, this book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of history, South Asian history, Partition studies, oral history, anthropology, political history, refugee studies, minority studies, political science, and borderland studies.
