Hindu Nationalism in India - Bok av Tanika Sarkar - Inbunden

Hindu Nationalism in India - Bok av Tanika Sarkar - Inbunden

In the twenty-first century, there has been a seismic shift in Indian political, religious and social life. The country''s guiding spirit was formerly a fusion of the anti-caste worldview of B.R. Ambedkar; the inclusive Hinduism of Mahatma Gandhi; and the agnostic secularism of Jawaharlal Nehru. Today, that fusion has given way to Hindutva.This now-dominant version of Hinduism blends the militant nationalism of V.D. Savarkar; the Brahmanical anti-minorityism of M.S. Golwalkar; and the global Islamophobia..

Malevolent Rlic - Bok av K. S. Komireddi - Häftad

Malevolent Rlic - Bok av K. S. Komireddi - Häftad

After decades of imperfect secularism, presided over by an often corrupt Congress establishment, Nehru's diverse rlic has yielded to Hindu nationalism. India is collapsing under the weight of its own contradictions. Since 2014, the ruling BJP has unleashed forces that are irreversibly transforming the country. Indian democracy, honed over decades, is now the chief enabler of Hindu extremism. Bigotry has been ennobled as a healthy form of self-assertion, and anti-Muslim vitriol has deluged the mainstream,..

The International Campaign Against Leprosy - 1948-2005 - Bok av Jo Robertson - Inbunden

The International Campaign Against Leprosy - 1948-2005 - Bok av Jo Robertson - Inbunden

This book may offer a cautionary tale in the age of Covid-19. The narratives we shape around disease in society are so often about politics, and the competing versions of leprosy eradication''s story are no exception.In one telling, the extra-budgetary funding for anti-leprosy work came with unwarranted interference in the WHO programme, resulting in an over-hasty, acrimonious and ultimately unsuccessful elimination campaign. In another interpretation, a great work of twentieth-century disease control..

Qatar and the Gulf Crisis - Bok av Kristian Coates Ulrichsen - Inbunden

Qatar and the Gulf Crisis - Bok av Kristian Coates Ulrichsen - Inbunden

In 2017, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE and Egypt severed diplomatic ties with Qatar, launching an economic blockade by land, air and sea. The self-proclaimed 'Anti-Terror Quartet' offered maximalist demands: thirteen 'conditions' recalling Austria-Hungary's 1914 ultimatum to Serbia. They may even have intended military action. Well into its second year, the standoff in the Gulf has no realistic end in sight. With the Bahraini and Emirati criminalisation of expressing support for Qatar, and the Saudi..

From Sheikhs to Sultanism - Statecraft and Authority in Saudi Arabia and the UAE - Bok av Christopher M. Davidson - Inbunden

From Sheikhs to Sultanism - Statecraft and Authority in Saudi Arabia and the UAE - Bok av Christopher M. Davidson - Inbunden

Muhammad bin Salman Al-Saud and Muhammad bin Zayed Al-Nahyan, the respective princely strongmen of Saudi Arabia and the UAE, have torn up the old rules. They have spurred game-changing economic master plans, presided over vast anti-corruption crackdowns, tackled entrenched religious forces, and overseen the mass arrest of critics. In parallel, they also appear to have replaced the old ''sheikhly'' consensus systems of their predecessors with something more autocratic, more personalistic, and perhaps..

She has received a job offer of $60,000 at a corporation developing anti-balding technology, and a governmental grant offer of $30,000 for her proposal to research solutions to neglected diseases in impoverished areas.

Authoritarian Century - Bok av Azeem Ibrahim - Inbunden

Liberal democracy has produced the most freedom and security for the most people of any form of government in human history. For a while, and especially after the collapse of the Soviet Union, we believed that this would be enough. Yet, today, we face an anti-liberal backlash--and we bear much of the responsibility.Western leaders learnt the wrong lesson from the Soviets'' downfall, seeing it as an ideological victory and adopting a ''total liberalism'' with the same rigidity that had just brought..
