* INCOMPLETE EDUCATION SYSTEM.
The modern university educationis focused primarily on providing extensive information and data,
the sole purpose of which is toequip students to earn their livelihood. Thus, higher aspects of
education, such as personality development, value inculcation, and self discovery are often ignored.
With the focus purely on materialistic achievements, people are tempted to employ unfair means to
achieve the desired object. This mentality, if extended further, can easily lead one to cheat and
subsequently graduate into white collar crimes, such as fraud, forgery and false pretences. The
financial impact of such crimes has been in the range of billions of dollars, according to the
Internationsl Symposium of Crime. The recent Satyam Scam is only one among the many such
examples.
* A SUPERFICIAL CULTURE.
A superficial materialistic culture that focuses on what we possess than What we really are is largely
responsible for misleading the masses. Beguiled by an endless array of ads, slogans and culture
trends prompting us to switch to a high and luxurious lifestyle that we don't need and can hardly
afford, we are gripped with desire and then with frustration and dismay when we either fail to
achieve this, or if they fail to satisfy us. Hence, we see spiralling statistics of depression as well as

INTRODUCTION
Today, violence based on gender is a horrific and disturbing phenomenon which is prevalent in any
all societies who are irrespective of political boundaries. In different cultures, there are people who
believe in witchcraft, despite society 's progression to be more scientific in temper. One issue which
is largely overlooked is witch hunting which is a form of gender–based violence. In traditional
India, the practice of witch hunting was used to ward off evil, however in the past few decades,

This paper will not only examine the contemporary challenges of witch–branding/hunting in rural
India that is largely grounded in gender violence and vigilantism, but it will also explain how the
Indian government is or is not addressing the issue at hand. Examples of what changes can be
implemented will also be listed in order to create a step by step plan for the mitigating of such
violent acts as well as providing the rural Indian community with some basic essentials for
maintaining a successful society.
THE HISTORY OF WITCHES AND WITCH HUNTING
Throughout history, both men and women alike have been branded witches and been accused of
black–magic and sorcery only to be hunted and killed in a most disturbing manner. Women,
however, have been the most ubiquitously targeted gender in every society and era. To define the
term "witch", this paper will be using the definition "a person, especially of the female gender, who
acquires supernatural power, is capable of performing black magic and/or sorcery, and is causing
purported harm to human health" (Iqbal, 2015). In India, terms such as daayan, tohni and chudail
are used to brand women, specifically, as witches. The term "witch", a name commonly used only
for women, coupled with the fact that the vast majority of witch killing victims are women, clearly
shows the attributions as gender specific. The branding of a person as a witch is indefinitely
negative and destructive.

Leadership Styles Of Mohandas Gandhi
For ages world leaders have practiced different styles of leadership and they have been successful in
accomplishing many things from regional peace to world wars. Whether be political, tyrannical, or
religious, world leaders from generations past to current all–share similarities and differences in
their leadership styles. World leaders have built respect and trust from developed personalities or
communication styles to motivate and inspire others into action. All leaders can learn from past
success and mistakes of any world leader. In this paper we are going to look at the practices and
leadership styles of Mohandas Gandhi and a brief comparison and contrast of leadership styles to

Mohandas Gandhi
Mohandas Gandhi was born in 1869 in the Bombay region of Porbandar, Gujarat (DuToit, 1996). He
is known as one of the greatest leaders from India and is said to be the father of the Indian
Independence Movement. Gandhi did not become a spiritual and political leader overnight and was
influenced by a number of events throughout his life. From an unlavished childhood, Gandhi was
able to attend law school in London. This was once step in the direction of his quest for morality
and humility in society. After graduating law school, Gandhi practiced law in South Africa where he

The Communal Politics Of India
INTRODUCTION –
The communal politics in India started from 1970s when emergency was declared in India. The
Congress was unable to fulfill its promises, conditions of India deteriorated, GDP dumps. Other
parties were also unable to deliver the expectation of people, and then BJP comes with communal
politics by raising Babri Masjid case. Rathyatra led by Advani is an important event which created
enthusiasm in a particular section of community. After Dandi March, this is the one yatra which has
succeeded because there were organizations in every level; it was pre–planned and executed
carefully which made it successful. The extreme case of communal riots in India took place on 27
February, 2002. The abuse of human rights started when in Sabarmati Express; one coach of Hindus
who were on pilgrimage was burned at the Godhra station in which Muslims were considered as
mastermind behind this action. The next day the Muslims community was targeted and huge killing
took place. The organizations like Rashtriya SwayamSevak Sangh and Vishwa Hindu Parishad were
involved in these riots. Many Masjids were destroyed, Muslim women were raped, their shops were
looted. The State Government and police failed to stop the communal violence instead they helped
the communal forces in locating Muslims by giving voters list and other documents for
identification.

Biography of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
Introduction Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, who is more popularly known as Mahatma Gandhi,
was born on October 2nd, 1869 and passed away on January 30th, 1948. He was the most popular
leader of the Indian nationalist movement during the British–rule that lasted for nearly a century in
India. He was the most adamant supporter of the non–violent civil disobedience and was the leader
that inspired the move towards independence and civil rights amongst the Indians. Gandhi was born
on the coastal regions of Gujarat in a Hindu Bania community in the family of a senior government
official Karamchand Gandhi. His mother Putlibai was his father's fourth wife. The first three wives
died during child birth. His mother was a Jain and Gandhi was strongly influenced by Jain traditions
and customs (Erikson, 1969). He studied law abroad in London. His very first effort towards social
change was on return to India in 1915. Prior to his return, he worked in South Africa for the civil
rights of the Muslims and Hindus in the region. This was where he first experimented with the new
techniques of non–violent efforts towards change. While he was in South Africa, he also dedicated
his time towards voicing non–violently against the numerous legislatures that existed against the
Indians. These were the techniques he then also applied when returning to India when supporting
peasants to fight against the extreme land taxes in the region (Erikson, 1969). He was never a
supporter of communalism and

The Impact Of Immigration On The Diversity Of A Countries...
We live in a world that is constantly growing closer and father apart. Conflicts within and across
countries have a tremendous effect on not only the people who live in these places, but the
relationship among other countries as well. Immigration places a huge role in the diversity of a
countries society. Through the interaction and integration of certain resources, people, and religions,
conflict is increased within and across these areas. We see these up rises in places such as France
and India.
Throughout the years, many of France's immigrants have come from European countries and the
Maghreb countries throughout North Africa. Many of the Maghreb ins settled in large cities across
France in places such as Marseilles and Paris. In France, the men from North Africa are known for
owning jobs in the construction and factory areas. The women on the other hand are known for not
working as much as the men do. But when the women do work, they employ in jobs such as
domestic work and child care. But these women do not only have jobs to be aware about. They also
need to pay close attention on how they present themselves based on their religion. Through the
expansion of religion around the world, religious beliefs play a crucial role within a countries
society. Islamic traditions of women are traditionally diverse throughout the world and numerous

ABSTRACT
Wherever several different identities co–exist, conflicts are bound to happen. However, trivial
conflicts get magnified into severe clashes and such clashes, can often metamorphose into violent
uprisings, bloodshed and riots, which we can broadly consider as man–made disasters. In the
aftermath of such man–made disasters, rescue forces are put to work, and immediate health
assistance is given to those physically or visibly injured. However, it is important to note that there
is a fundamental exclusion and overlooking of the psychological trauma suffered by the survivors,
their families and the deceased 's families. Sidelining this extremely important tangent of an
individual and group 's well–being, the institutional records only throw light on the physical
casualties, not focusing on psychological health. This can be seen to have severe repercussions, as
people who haven 't recovered psychologically may harbor feelings of antagonism, hatred, hostility,
and may be unable to accommodate themselves to mainstream society again. Such individuals may
face alienation from society and are hence, rendered to live their lives at the margins. This

(Indian Independence Act 1947): The Indian Independence Act, which came into force on 18 July
1947, divided the British Indian territory into two new states of India and Pakistan, which were to
be dominions under the Commonwealth of Nations until their constitutions were in effect. The
Constituent Assembly was divided into two for the separate states.
The Act relieved the British Parliament of any further rights or obligations towards India or
Pakistan, and granted sovereignty over the lands to the respective Constituent Assemblies. When the
Constitution of India came into force on 26 January 1950, it overturned the Indian Independence
Act. India ceased to be a dominion of the British Crown and became a sovereign democratic

What Are The Causes Of Communalism
1. Introduction
Communalism is the result of conflicts between various religious groups who try to promote their
own interests at the cost of others. Simplifying, it can be defined as distinguishing people on the
basis of their religion.
Communalism is a serious issue in India that is faced by us. This problem, which mostly exists
amongst the followers of two primary religious communities in our country – Hindus and Muslims,
it many times creates sense of tension in secular India. Such acts have been acclaimed in our
country which is disgraceful, shameful and departing from the message of Our Father of Nation
Mahatma Gandhi who led the nation towards freedom, following the way of non–violence.

They wanted to weaken the freedom movement. They always divide the people on the basis of
religion and spread the feeling of hatred, distrust among public. This led to disunity among religious
groups and in consequence became responsible for continuation of British rule. The British policy of
separate electorate was also one such measure adopted by them. They also acted late in situation of
communal violence while ruling.

The Persian Empire: Book Review
The Persian Empire started in 559 BC and it fell in 330 BC. The authors argument for including this
empire into this book is that it was the first world–dominant power in history. The empire was so
successful because its rulers were very tolerant towards its subjects. The "glue" that kept the
civilization together for so long was the tolerance, subjects under Persian rule were given the same
things they had before, nothing was taken away from them. The Empire eventually fell because the

The argument from the author for putting the empire into the book is that the empire, at its peak,
ruled over more than 100 million subjects. The Mughal Empire was so successful because its army
had firearms. The "glue" that kept the empire together was its religious and ethnic tolerance, and
people say it would have been unlikely that the Mughal Empire could have lasted as long as it did,
or reached its true peak without its turn for tolerance. The Mughal Empire began to decline because
there were a lot of wars and it was bankrupt because of them. At the peak of the empire, Hindus,

Assured of success, Joshua renewed his plans to conquer Ai. The enemy forces were lured into the

Ai from the near and set it afire. The defenders were annihilated, their king was hanged and the site
was reduced to rubble. When Israel makes its second attack, the people of Ai as well as the
inhabitants of Bethel vacate their cities to pursue the enemy (Josh. 8: 17). Not all of the Canaanites
tried to resist Israel's invasion. One group, the Gibeonites, avoided destruction by deceiving the
Israelites into making a covenant of peace with them (Joshua 9:1). Alarmed by the defection of the
Gibeonites to Israel, a group of southern Canaanite kings, led by Adoni–zedek of Jerusalem, formed
a coalition against the invading force. The kings threatened to attack the Gibeonites, causing Joshua

Abstract:
Parliamentary democracies ruled by multiparty cabinets make foreign policy decisions in a fairly
unique institutional context, complicated by the politics of coalition government. Recent research
suggests that this context is associated with foreign policy behaviors that are quite distinct in
character from foreign policy made by single party cabinets. In particular, coalitions tend to engage
in more extreme (both more peaceful and more aggressive) and more committed foreign policies. In

A coalition government is one in which several political parties must cooperate in order to run a

by making concessions, hence the forming of a coalition.

Analysis : Vinayak Damodar Savarkar
Vinayak Damodar Savarkar was (28 May 1883 – 26 February 1966) was a poet, playwright and a
fierce advocate of India 's independence. He espoused dismantling the caste system in India, and
reconversion of the converted Hindus back to Hindu religion. This term was coined Hindutva, as
opposed to Hinduism which is regarded in a social/political communalist context. Hindutva, on the
other hand, advocated national unity and fraternal brotherhood among all Indians.
Hinduism is a movement centred around a religion, or in essence, is a religion which spans roughly

were part of a common territory. In Old Persian, the land ahead the Indus River was called Hinduš
(the Iranian interpretation of Sanskrit Sindhu), hence modern Persian Hind, Hindū. This added to the
Iranic suffix –stān became Hindustan, "land of the Hindus" . Savarkar was a staunch believer of
national unity as opposed to a religious fanatic. A reported atheist, he held Hindus as a cultural and
political entity.
Since Savarkar held Hindus as a national identity, his perception opposed the definition of religion

The Anti–Sikh riots in the 1984 year of riots had been anything in particular. People are aggrieved
when they hear of the incident and narrate stories of how runaway crime could have increased on
Sikhs during the time. The main reason for the advent of the riots was the shooting down of Mrs.
Indira Gandhi in morning of 31 October 1984. The riots had started off in the evening just after her
morning death. The information of the riots was already taken by Giyani Jail Singhji that meeting of

Journey To Education : My Journey Of Education In India
India is being considered as 'Tiger Economy' and emerging as a big power on the global map, but in
the same country millions of Dalits (broken people) and Tribal (native people) are living in
subhuman condition. One of the egregious examples is manual scavenging; according to Non–

scavenging work. This is unbelievable and unacceptable in any civilized society, but people are
forced into manual scavenging work across India. These people are called 'Untouchables' and they
are Dalits within Dalits in India and their conditions are disgraceful and unparalleled in the world.
This is of great significance in my life because I'm a Dalit and was born in the slum of a big city

Gandhi 's Effect On The World
Gandhi's Salt march which had the Indian independence. Gandhi played a major role in the
development of nonviolence and peace activities. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was the pre–
eminent political and spiritual bellwether of India and the Indian independence movement. He had
many adherents, and edified many how to protest placidly, instead of utilizing violence and war.
Gandhi is a role model for many people today and is one of the most famous of all nonviolent
activists. Gandhi made an immensely colossal impact on the world through his work. "The Salt
March gave the world the idea of the use of mass nonviolence in politics. To Indians, it helped
produce a 'Father of the Nation.' Gandhi was instrumental in freeing India from the yoke of British
imperialism and consequently started the unravelling of global colonialism." (Gandhian
Nonviolence And The Salt March).
"As for Mr. Gandhi, he is confident he will begin his illegal gathering of salt at 6:30 o 'clock
tomorrow morning. But, as he remarked to your correspondent with a wry smile." "That is to say, if
I am allowed to do so." (Gandhi Makes Salt, Defying India 's Law). The Salt March, which took
place in India from 12th March 1930, was an act of civil disobedience to protest British rule in India
led by Mohandas Gandhi (1869–1948). During the march, thousands of Indians followed Gandhi

Christian Teachings on Poverty and Wealth Essay
Christian Teachings on Poverty and Wealth
Ever since the beginning of the Christian faith, poverty and wealth have been a big issue. Before
Jesus was born, the rich would use religion to keep the poor away from them. The wealthy thought
their riches were a blessing from God and that their faith and dedication was a reason for God
bestowing them with wealth. They believed that the poor were not true followers of God and
therefore suffered with poverty. They thought that the poor were not as important in the eyes of
God. However, Jesus himself was born in a poor family and he was born in a stable where the
animals were kept. "For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, ...

This was what Jesus was particularly against and believed that this was what would prevent a select
few from reaching heaven. "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God." "But
woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your comfort." Luke 6: 20 and Luke 6:24.
He believed that, "You cannot serve both God and money." Luke 16:13. All men and women were
equal in God's eyes regardless of status and wealth: "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free,
male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Galatians 3:26.
In the Bible, Saint James said that the most important people in heaven were the outcasts of society
making them one of the most loved people of God: "Has not God chosen those who are poor in the
eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him?"
James 2:5. In 1Timothy 6:10, Saint Paul said that "For the love of money is a root of all kinds of
evil." Through this quote, Saint Paul emphasizes that monetary problems lead to most wrong doings
such as stealing, corruption and gambling. Saint Paul did not condemn money or wealth and neither
did Jesus but said that the love of money was wrong and this is what kept a rich man from entering
heaven. He also said that, "Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows
generously will also reap generously."

The Indian History And The Status Of Women
The Indian History and the Status of Women :
Women's security is closely connected to global security still they suffer simply because they differ
in gender. According to the UN Commission on Human Security, 'the security of one person, one
community, one nation rests on the decisions of many others, sometimes fortuitously, sometimes
precariously''. However, in the interrelated world everyone is influenced either positively or
negatively by the decisions of individuals or states (UNIFEM
2003). To understand the status of the Indian women it is important to understand the history gender
discrimination in the country.
In 1947, the Indian history of violence against women was perceivable in the violent nature of the
nation's partition. The women were raped, abducted and their bodies were used as a medium of
men's evil expression as Indian Hindus and the Pakistani Muslims battled for power to defend their
countries. This tactic of humiliating the opponent by using women's bodies as a tool of power
dominance is still being practiced in the Indian society and is visible in the cases of Devi and Sori
(Dobhal 2011: 598).
Mother India, commonly termed as Bharat Mata in Sanskrit is the national personification of
India as a mother goddess which is widely depicted as a woman clad in a saffron sari holding the
national flag. The position of women was high in India and some might argue that degrading
positioning of women in the society is influenced by the impact of colonialism.

Juvenile Delinquency Is Not A Problem
Children constitute the most vulnerable section of society and are the most important asset for the

Hindu Muslim Violence And India
Civil violence, often representing ethnic, religious or racial conflict has been rising through the past
half–century (Gleditsch et al. 2002), but we still have only a limited understanding of its causes.
While there is considerable evidence that the outbreak of civil conflict results from poverty (e.g.
Miguel et al. 2004; Bohlken and Sergenti 2010; Do and Iyer, 2010), the evidence on other potential
causes including the importance of social divisions and political grievances is more controversial
(Blattman and Miguel, 2010: p.45). This paper examines Hindu–Muslim violence in India. Muslims
constitute India's largest religious minority, and the observed patterns of Hindu–Muslim violence
suggest that Muslims are more likely to have been the victims of such violence (Mitra and Ray,
2010). Since Muslims are also under–represented in elected office (constituting only 5% of
members in the national legislature in 2009, down from nearly 9% in 1980), we investigate whether
increasing Muslim political representation lowers the incidence of religious conflict. We put
together unique data on both the religious identity of politicians and religious conflict for the period
1960–2007, merged at the state and the district level. We account for the potential endogeneity of
Muslim representation by instrumenting the share of Muslim legislators with the share of Muslim
legislators who win in close elections against Hindus (a strategy similar to that implemented by Lee,

economic characteristics of women have significant association with the occurrence of domestic
violence. Urban residence, older age, lower education and lower family income are associated with
occurrence of domestic violence. Multivariate logistic regressions revealed that the physical

includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with
others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship, and
observance.
In this world, human beings have their own beliefs based on ethics, practices, and religion.
Traditionally, religion is considered the view of God and a source of religious beliefs. Among all
faiths, Hinduism and Islam are two of the world's largest religions. However, if the pages were
flipped back in history, the tensions between Islam and Hindu would reveal a constant eruption
between the two religions. On February 27, 2002, the Sabarmati Express train was set on fire killing

Gandhi had no gender policy during her reign. One would think that a women politician would want

The Pros And Cons Of Globalization
With globalization comes migration, as people choose to immigrate from one place to the other in
search of better opportunities. Because of globalization, nations attempt to homogenize their diverse
population, with disregard to individuals own cultural ties. The backlash of this disregard causes
violent civil conflict, as differing cultures branch out and mobilize for their own cause. According to
Samuel. P Huntington, people are no longer defined by their political, ideological or economic
positions, but rather their cultural identity. Huntington classified the world into 8 major
civilizations: Sinic, Japanese, Hindu, Islamic, Orthodox, Western, Latin American and African.
Because of globalization, these cultures are migrating with one another and are creating nations that
are multi–cultural. Huntington argues that different cultures will always clash because of their basic
immutable differences, increased interactions, social change, and the West's superiority. For
example, the West versus Islam is the most dominating culture clash in modern time, as evident in
the Gulf War, Afghanistan war, and Iraq War/ The increased communication between the two have

The modern university educationis focused primarily on providing extensive information and data, the sole purpose of which is toequip students to earn their livelihood. Thus, higher aspects of education, such as personality development, value inculcation, and self discovery are often ignored. With the focus purely on materialistic achievements, people are tempted to employ unfair means to achieve the desired object. This mentality, if extended further, can easily lead one to cheat and subsequently graduate into white collar crimes, such as fraud, forgery and false pretences. The financial impact of such crimes has been in the range of billions of dollars, according to the Internationsl Symposium of Crime. The recent Satyam Scam is only one among the many such examples. * A SUPERFICIAL CULTURE. A superficial materialistic culture that focuses on what we possess than What we really are is largely responsible for misleading the masses. Beguiled by an endless array of ads, slogans and culture trends prompting us to switch to a high and luxurious lifestyle that we don't need and can hardly afford, we are gripped with desire and then with frustration and dismay when we either fail to achieve this, or if they fail to satisfy us.

In different cultures, there are people who believe in witchcraft, despite society 's progression to be more scientific in temper. One issue which is largely overlooked is witch hunting which is a form of gender–based violence.

This paper will not only examine the contemporary challenges of witch–branding/hunting in rural India that is largely grounded in gender violence and vigilantism, but it will also explain how the Indian government is or is not addressing the issue at hand. Examples of what changes can be implemented will also be listed in order to create a step by step plan for the mitigating of such violent acts as well as providing the rural Indian community with some basic essentials for maintaining a successful society. THE HISTORY OF WITCHES AND WITCH HUNTING Throughout history, both men and women alike have been branded witches and been accused of black–magic and sorcery only to be hunted and killed in a most disturbing manner. Women, however, have been the most ubiquitously targeted gender in every society and era. To define the term "witch", this paper will be using the definition "a person, especially of the female gender, who acquires supernatural power, is capable of performing black magic and/or sorcery, and is causing purported harm to human health" (Iqbal, 2015). In India, terms such as daayan, tohni and chudail are used to brand women, specifically, as witches. The term "witch", a name commonly used only for women, coupled with the fact that the vast majority of witch killing victims are women, clearly shows the attributions as gender specific. The branding of a person as a witch is indefinitely negative and destructive. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

His very first effort towards social change was on return to India in 1915. Prior to his return, he worked in South Africa for the civil rights of the Muslims and Hindus in the region. This was where he first experimented with the new techniques of non–violent efforts towards change. While he was in South Africa, he also dedicated his time towards voicing non–violently against the numerous legislatures that existed against the Indians. These were the techniques he then also applied when returning to India when supporting peasants to fight against the extreme land taxes in the region (Erikson, 1969).

In France, the men from North Africa are known for owning jobs in the construction and factory areas. The women on the other hand are known for not working as much as the men do. But when the women do work, they employ in jobs such as domestic work and child care. But these women do not only have jobs to be aware about.

In the aftermath of such man–made disasters, rescue forces are put to work, and immediate health assistance is given to those physically or visibly injured. However, it is important to note that there is a fundamental exclusion and overlooking of the psychological trauma suffered by the survivors, their families and the deceased 's families. Sidelining this extremely important tangent of an individual and group 's well–being, the institutional records only throw light on the physical casualties, not focusing on psychological health. This can be seen to have severe repercussions, as people who haven 't recovered psychologically may harbor feelings of antagonism, hatred, hostility, and may be unable to accommodate themselves to mainstream society again.

Hindutva, on the other hand, advocated national unity and fraternal brotherhood among all Indians. Hinduism is a movement centred around a religion, or in essence, is a religion which spans roughly 4th century CE.

In Old Persian, the land ahead the Indus River was called Hinduš (the Iranian interpretation of Sanskrit Sindhu), hence modern Persian Hind, Hindū. This added to the Iranic suffix –stān became Hindustan, "land of the Hindus" . Savarkar was a staunch believer of national unity as opposed to a religious fanatic. A reported atheist, he held Hindus as a cultural and political entity. Since Savarkar held Hindus as a national identity, his perception opposed the definition of religion as the pinnacle of man 's priorities, as thrust by major religious texts or religious bodies.

However, in the interrelated world everyone is influenced either positively or negatively by the decisions of individuals or states (UNIFEM 2003). To understand the status of the Indian women it is important to understand the history gender discrimination in the country. In 1947, the Indian history of violence against women was perceivable in the violent nature of the nation's partition. The women were raped, abducted and their bodies were used as a medium of men's evil expression as Indian Hindus and the Pakistani Muslims battled for power to defend their countries. This tactic of humiliating the opponent by using women's bodies as a tool of power dominance is still being practiced in the Indian society and is visible in the cases of Devi and Sori (Dobhal 2011: 598). Mother India, commonly termed as Bharat Mata in Sanskrit is the national personification of India as a mother goddess which is widely depicted as a woman clad in a saffron sari holding the national flag. The position of women was high in India and some might argue that degrading positioning of women in the society is influenced by the impact of colonialism. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 32. Hindu Muslim Violence And India Civil violence, often representing ethnic, religious or racial conflict has been rising through the past half–century (Gleditsch et al. 2002), but we still have only a limited understanding of its causes. While there is considerable evidence that the outbreak of civil conflict results from poverty (e.g. Miguel et al. 2004; Bohlken and Sergenti 2010; Do and Iyer, 2010), the evidence on other potential causes including the importance of social divisions and political grievances is more controversial (Blattman and Miguel, 2010: p.45). This paper examines Hindu–Muslim violence in India. Muslims constitute India's largest religious minority, and the observed patterns of Hindu–Muslim violence suggest that Muslims are more likely to have been the victims of such violence (Mitra and Ray, 2010). Since Muslims are also under–represented in elected office (constituting only 5% of members in the national legislature in 2009, down from nearly 9% in 1980), we investigate whether increasing Muslim political representation lowers the incidence of religious conflict. We put together unique data on both the religious identity of politicians and religious conflict for the period 1960–2007, merged at the state and the district level. We account for the potential endogeneity of Muslim representation by instrumenting the share of Muslim legislators with the share of Muslim legislators who win in close elections against Hindus (a strategy similar to that implemented by Lee, 2001 and Clots–Figuer ...

In this world, human beings have their own beliefs based on ethics, practices, and religion. Traditionally, religion is considered the view of God and a source of religious beliefs. Among all faiths, Hinduism and Islam are two of the world's largest religions. However, if the pages were flipped back in history, the tensions between Islam and Hindu would reveal a constant eruption between the two religions. On February 27, 2002, the Sabarmati Express train was set on fire killing fifty–nine people died near the Godhra railway station. The blame for the train fire was directly placed on Muslims of Godhra by the government of Gujarat. There was a huge controversy whether the incident was an accident or preplanned attack. According to the investigation, the conflict started when the Hindu militant activists attacked a Muslim woman and pulling off her headscarf. This flashpoint between the two religious ideologies is believed to have triggered the Human Right Violation.

  • 35. Failures Of Indira Gandhi Week Ten: This weeks analysis on Indira Gandhi helped me unpack her successes and failures. Some of the major failures that my group talked about was the forced sterilization, state of emergency, religious divide, censorship and corruption. The mass forced sterilization was ultimate failure in my eyes and as I talked about prior a major human rights violation. Interestingly, Indira Gandhi had no gender policy during her reign. One would think that a women politician would want to address so many of the problems that plague women on a daily basis. If I was a women in India during the time where Indira Gandhi came to power, I would have been devastated that she was not interested in improving women's rights. Indira also reinforced the religious divide within India, especially for the Sikhs. She ended up exacerbating tensions in the region, which ultimately lead to her demise. While she did have a lot of failures, this weeks class helped bring to light some of her successes as well. Prior to this class I only really thought of her failures and even during class my group had a hard time coming up with anything. I think her lack of credentials and her short–sidedness made her ill prepared to be a ruler.

  • 39. The Pros And Cons Of Globalization With globalization comes migration, as people choose to immigrate from one place to the other in search of better opportunities. Because of globalization, nations attempt to homogenize their diverse population, with disregard to individuals own cultural ties. The backlash of this disregard causes violent civil conflict, as differing cultures branch out and mobilize for their own cause. According to Samuel. P Huntington, people are no longer defined by their political, ideological or economic positions, but rather their cultural identity. Huntington classified the world into 8 major civilizations: Sinic, Japanese, Hindu, Islamic, Orthodox, Western, Latin American and African. Because of globalization, these cultures are migrating with one another and are creating nations that are multi–cultural. Huntington argues that different cultures will always clash because of their basic immutable differences, increased interactions, social change, and the West's superiority. For example, the West versus Islam is the most dominating culture clash in modern time, as evident in the Gulf War, Afghanistan war, and Iraq War/ The increased communication between the two have exaggerated their differences and the Wests repeated attempt to universalize values, and institution while maintaining their superiority, has caused resentment within the Middle East and Muslim communities across the globe.
