Diversity has become a dominant issue in the social, political, and legal environments of American life. The United States, however, is not theonly country with an influx of newcomers into its diverse society. Throughout history, people around the world have traveled from theirhomelands to settle in other geographic regions. The arrival of foreign populations into an established culture compels both recent settlersand existing populations to examine long-held beliefs, values, norms, and behaviors.
Although the specific issues raised by new settlers may vary, common themes emerge as a society becomes more diverse. These themes caninclude:
· the need to understand the meaning of human and cultural diversity in society;
· the favoring of some groups and the oppression of or discrimination against others;
· difficulties in fully understanding and appreciating cultures different from one’s own;
· the ability to balance an appreciation for individuals’ differences while retaining a common and unified culture; and
· the ability to accept and blend diverse and sometimes conflicting norms and values within a nation, state, neighborhood, or family.
Social scientists believe that to understand how these issues play out within a specific culture requires first understanding a culture’shistorical and sociocultural context, as well as the historical and sociocultural context of its new arrivals. Chapter 5 focuses on these commonthemes relative to human diversity and culture around the world.5.1 Migration and Global Diversity
The causes of migration are complex and varied,.
Redefining Globalization, urbanisation and LocalisationJIT KUMAR GUPTA
If cities are to made more livable, humane and productive, it is time that intent, contents and scope of globalization must be revisited and reviewed, both critically and objectively. Globalisation would need redefinition for promoting universality and inclusiveness among people and nations to have basic amenities and quality of life for all its residents , including poorest of the poor to lead a dignified life. Failure to redefine globalization, rationalise urbanisation, restore localization empowering poor and promoting universalisation and inclusivity; will invariably lead to making SDGs merely a paper exercise. In addition, making the world, cities and communities sustainable, livable, safe and inclusive, would remain merely a dream and a mirage, for future generations and communities, making planet earth as their preferred place of residence.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. INTRODUCTION
GLOBALIZATION AND DIASPORA ARE TWO INTERCONNECTED
CONCEPTS THAT HAVE SIGNIFICANT IMPLICATIONS FOR THE
MODERN WORLD. GLOBALIZATION REFERS TO THE PROCESS OF
INTERCONNECTEDNESS BETWEEN COUNTRIES AND PEOPLE ACROSS
THE WORLD, FACILITATED BY ADVANCEMENTS IN TRANSPORTATION,
COMMUNICATION, AND TECHNOLOGY. IT HAS LED TO AN INCREASED
FLOW OF GOODS, SERVICES, AND PEOPLE ACROSS NATIONAL
BORDERS, WHICH HAS CREATED A MORE INTERCONNECTED AND
INTERDEPENDENT WORLD.
DIASPORA, ON THE OTHER HAND, REFERS TO THE DISPERSION OF
PEOPLE FROM THEIR ORIGINAL HOMELAND TO OTHER PARTS OF
THE WORLD. THIS MAY BE DUE TO VARIOUS REASONS SUCH AS
ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, POLITICAL INSTABILITY, CONFLICTS, OR
EVEN NATURAL DISASTERS. DIASPORA COMMUNITIES CAN BE
FOUND ALL OVER THE WORLD, AND THEY OFTEN MAINTAIN CLOSE
TIES WITH THEIR HOMELAND WHILE ALSO ADAPTING TO THEIR NEW
HOST COUNTRIES.
3. RELATION BETWEEN GLOBALIZATION
AND DIASPORA
• The relationship between globalization and diaspora is complex and
multi-faceted. Globalization has facilitated the movement of people,
goods, and services across borders, and this has led to an increase in
diaspora communities around the world. Diaspora communities have
also played a critical role in promoting globalization, as they often act
as cultural and economic bridges between their host countries and
their homelands.
• One significant impact of globalization on diaspora communities is the
increased access to information and communication technologies. This
has made it easier for diaspora communities to stay connected with
their homelands, even if they are physically located thousands of miles
away. Social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp
have made it possible for diaspora communities to communicate with
each other and their families back home in real-time.
4. IMPORTANT ROLES OF
GLOBALIZATION AND DIASPORA
• Globalization has played a significant role in shaping the diaspora communities
around the world. Advances in transportation and communication have made it
easier for people to move from their homeland to other parts of the world, and to
maintain connections with their families and communities back home. The
growing interconnectedness of the world has also created new economic, cultural,
and social opportunities for diaspora communities, as they can participate in global
networks and share their unique cultures and traditions with a global audience.
•
• At the same time, globalization has also created challenges for diaspora
communities, such as the loss of cultural identity and the erosion of traditional
ways of life. The rapid pace of change and the constant flow of people and ideas
can make it difficult for diaspora communities to maintain their cultural heritage
and traditions.
•
• Overall, globalization and diaspora are complex and interrelated phenomena that
continue to shape our world in many ways. While they bring new opportunities
and challenges for individuals and communities around the world, it is important
to recognize and respect the diversity and richness of different cultures and
traditions, and to work towards building more inclusive and equitable societies
that embrace and celebrate this diversity.
5. SITUATION OF
GLOBALIZATION AND DIASPORA
• Globalization has also facilitated the flow of goods and services
between diaspora communities and their homelands. For instance,
remittances, or money sent by diaspora communities to their families
back home, are a significant source of income for many developing
countries. In 2020, it was estimated that remittances to low- and
middle-income countries reached $540 billion, with India, China, and
Mexico being the top recipients. Remittances not only help to support
families back home, but they also contribute to the economic
development of the home country.
• However, the relationship between globalization and diaspora is not
always positive. Globalization has also led to the exploitation of labor
in many developing countries, which has forced many people to
migrate to other countries in search of better economic
opportunities. This has created a global system of inequality, where
people in developed countries benefit from the labor of those in
developing countries. Additionally, the increased movement of people
across borders has led to issues related to immigration, border
control, and security
6. CONCLUSION
• In conclusion, globalization and diaspora are two interconnected
concepts that have significant implications for the modern world.
Globalization has facilitated the movement of people, goods, and
services across borders, which has led to an increase in diaspora
communities around the world. Diaspora communities have also
played a critical role in promoting globalization, as they often act as
cultural and economic bridges between their host countries and
their homelands. However, the relationship between globalization
and diaspora is not always positive, and there are many challenges
that need to be addressed, including labor exploitation, immigration,
and security.
Editor's Notes
Globalization is a term used to describe the increasing interconnectedness of the world, as a result of advances in technology, transportation, communication, and trade. This process has led to a significant increase in the movement of goods, services, people, and ideas across national borders, which has had a profound impact on many aspects of society.
One of the most notable effects of globalization has been the emergence of diasporas, which are communities of people who have migrated from their country of origin and now live in other parts of the world. Diasporas can form for a variety of reasons, including economic, political, or social factors.
Globalization has played a significant role in the formation of diasporas by facilitating the movement of people across borders. Advances in transportation have made it easier and cheaper for people to travel long distances, while improvements in communication technology have made it easier for people to stay connected with their home countries and with other members of their diaspora.
Diasporas can have a range of impacts on both their home countries and the countries where they reside. In their home countries, diasporas can provide a source of remittances, as well as support for economic development and political change. In the countries where they reside, diasporas can bring diversity and cultural richness, as well as contributing to the economy and society.
One important aspect of diasporas is the way they can maintain cultural ties to their home countries. Diasporas often form tight-knit communities and maintain strong connections to their cultural and religious traditions. They may also engage in activities such as cultural festivals, language classes, and community organizations to preserve their cultural heritage.
Overall, globalization and diaspora are closely intertwined, with the former enabling the latter to form and grow. The increasing interconnectedness of the world is likely to continue to fuel the growth of diasporas, which in turn will continue to have a significant impact on many aspects of society.
