Measuring poverty: 4. Reference Period, HCR and the Calorific Norm. 5. Direct and Indirect Methods. 6. Rigging the Data. 7. Tendulkar Committee Report.

The Population Conundrum. Conclusion The Way Forward. Driven by competitive pressures and commercial considerations, the media rarely covers stories of deprivation today. And when it does, facts, causes and effects often give way to sensationalism, largely because of a lack of understanding of the issue. Poverty Matters brings together a series of lectures delivered by K. Nagaraj between 2000 16 at the Asian College of Journalism, Chennai, as part of the college s signature course, titled Covering Deprivation . The book explains why deprivation is not merely economic but also cultural, social and political, and how the removal of deprivation leads to empowerment and access to material goods and welfare benefits. It describes the methods of measuring poverty and argues for the importance of considering various human development indices in studying deprivation. This book envisions a primary role of the media in ensuring that the poor participate fully in the democratic processes of the country. In the last part, it includes an appeal to the Indian government to provide the necessary welfare benefits to the poor, and thereby strengthen the democratic fabric of the nation. By carefully explaining the complicated issues around deprivation in a simple and lucid manner, this book goes beyond addressing students of journalism. Students and scholars of economics, development studies and sociology will also greatly benefit from this work that introduces and broadens the concept of deprivation. (jacket).…

Soft cover. Condizione: New. Secularism emerged in 17thcentury Europe as an essential element of what became the modern state. The separation of church and state that it entailed paved the way for the democratic republics we take for granted today. Tolerance, as understood in the West, was sought to be introduced as state policy by the British in India too. But our nationalist leaders understood their country better than to adopt the concept without local adjustments. Political philosopher Nalini Rajan examines the tension between religious freedom and state intervention in India, a tension that comes with the idea of principled state intervention in matters of religion, as mandated by the Constitution. Demands for reservations and separate electorates by minorities in the early twentieth century had essentially ruled out absolute state neutrality in this respect. But it is only by analysing the fascinating debates on secularism in the Constituent Assembly (1946 49) that we see how and why the specific provisions on minority rights Articles 25 to 30 came to be adopted. These provisions implicitly envisioned a key role for the judiciary. A full section of this book is thus devoted to understanding the role that the courts have played in establishing, and just as importantly, defining Indian secularism through such judgements as in the Shirur Mutt case of 1954, the Durgah Committee case of 1961, the Satsangi case of 1966, the Stanislaus case of 1977, the Shah Bano case of 1985, the socalled Hindutva cases of 1996, the Vaishno Devi case of 1997, and the Puttaswamy case of 2017. This exhaustive monograph should be read by all those interested in understanding how a distinctive secularism shaped modern India, and how the latter shaped our secularism.…
