Book excerpt: "பிரிட்டனிடம் இருந்து அல்ல, பிராமணர்களிடம் இருந்துதான் முதலில் நமக்கு சுதந்தரம் வேண்டும் என்று நீதிக்கட்சி பிரகடனம் செய்தபோது பிராமணர் அல்லாதவருக்கான அரசியல் பாதை முதன்முதலில் தமிழகத்தில் உருவானது. பெரியார் அதை முன்னெடுத்தார். சுயமரியாதை என்னும் சொல் தமிழர்களின் மந்திரச் சொல்லாக மாறியது. இந்தித் திணிப்புக்கு எதிராக திராவிடர் கழகம் பிரகடனம் செய்த போரில் ஒட்டுமொத்த தமிழகமும் இணைந்துகொண்டது. ஒரு சமூக சீர்திருத்த இயக்கமாகத் தொடங்கி, தமிழ்ச்சமூகத்தை ஆளும் மாபெரும் அரசியல் சக்தியாக திமுகவை அண்ணா வளர்த்தெடுத்ததன் பின்னணியில்தான் எத்தனைப் போராட்டங்கள். தியாகங்கள்! திராவிட இயக்கத்துக்கான ஆரம்பப் புள்ளி உருவான 1909 தொடங்கி அண்ணா மறைந்த 1969 வரையிலான அரசியலும் சரித்திரமும் புத்தகத்தின் முதல் பாகத்தில் விவரிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளன."

Book excerpt: "திமுக ஆட்சியின் தாக்கத்தைத் தமிழகம் உணர்வதற்கு முன்னால், அண்ணா மறைந்துவிட, கலைஞர் மு. கருணாநிதியின் பொறுப்பில் ஆட்சியும் கட்சியும் வந்து சேர்ந்தது. பெரியார், அண்ணா இருவரிடமும் பணியாற்றிய அனுபவம் அவருக்குக் கைகொடுத்தது. திமுகவில் இருந்து விலகி எம்.ஜி.ஆர் தனிக்கட்சி தொடங்கியபோது, திராவிட இயக்கம் மேலும் பல பிளவுகளுக்குத் தயாரானது. பிறகு, எமர்ஜென்சி புயலில் சிக்கி, மீண்டு எழுவதற்குள் தேர்தல் தோல்வி. அடுத்த பத்தாண்டுகளுக்கு, எம்.ஜி.ஆரின் சவாலை அவர் சந்திக்கவேண்டியிருந்தது. திமுகவின் முடிவுரையை பலர் எழுத ஆரம்பித்துவிட்ட சமயத்தில், கலைஞர், கட்சியை ஒருங்கிணைத்தார். தமிழகம் அதுவரை அறிந்திராத, வலிமையான எதிர்க்கட்சி இலக்கணத்தை வகுத்து கட்சிக்கு உயிரூட்டினார். ஜெயலலிதா, வைகோ என்று புதிய தலைவர்கள் அறிமுகமான-போது, திராவிட இயக்கம் விரிந்தும், பிரிந்தும் வளர ஆரம்பித்தது. என்றாலும், திமுக, அதிமுக தவிர்த்து இன்னொரு கட்சியால் இங்கே ஆட்சி செய்ய முடியவில்லை. கட்சிப் பிரிவினைகள் தாண்டி ஒரு வலுவான சக்தியாக, திராவிட இயக்கம் வளர்ந்து பரவியிருப்பதையே இது காட்டுகிறது. அண்ணா மறைந்த 1969 தொடங்கி நேற்று வரையிலான இயக்க வரலாறு இரண்டாம் பாகத்தில் இடம்பெறுகிறது."

Download or read book Frontiers of Embedded Muslim Communities in India written by Vinod K. Jairath and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-03 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume approaches the study of Muslim societies through an evolutionary lens, challenging Islamic traditions, identities, communities, beliefs, practices and ideologies as static, frozen or unchangeable. It assumes that there is neither a monolithic, essential or authentic Islam, nor a homogeneous Muslim community. Similarly, there are no fixed binary oppositions such as between the ulama and sufi saints or textual and lived Islam. The overarching perspective — that there is no fixity in the meanings of Islamic symbols and that the language of Islam can be used by individuals, organizations, movements and political parties variously in religious and non-religious contexts — underlies the ethnographically rich essays that comprise this volume. Divided in three parts, the volume cumulatively presents an initial framework for the study of Muslim communities in India embedded in different regional and local contexts. The first part focuses on ethnographies of three Muslim communities (Kuchchhi Jatt, Irani Shia and Sidis) and their relationships with others, with shifting borders and frontiers; part two examines the issue of ‘caste’ of certain Muslim communities; and the third part, containing chapters on Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Mumbai and Gujarat, looks at the varied responses of Muslims as Indian citizens in regional contexts at different historical moments. Although the volume focuses on Muslim communities in India, it is also meant to bridge an important gap in, and contribute to, the ‘sociology of India’ which has been organized and taught primarily as a sociology of Hindu society. The book will appeal to those in sociology, history, political science, education, modern South Asian Studies, and to the general reader interested in India & South Asia.

Download or read book The Dravidian Years written by S. Narayan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Haryana to Gujarat to Maharashtra, numerous Indian states have been witness to protests by backward classes pressing for quotas and reservations. In stark contrast is the exemplary case of Tamil Nadu, which has managed to effectively integrate economic and development agenda for the backward classes into state policy. In the fifty years of rule between them, M. Karunanidhi, MGR, and J. Jayalalithaa—the iconic leaders of Tamil Nadu politics—managed to effectively transform institutions and structures to deliver a social welfare agenda in the state. Was it pure charisma on part of these leaders that gave us the unusual story of politicians and bureaucrats working hand in hand to implement a social agenda? Written by S. Narayan, who as part of the administration was both a witness to and a participant in these developments, this book is an intimate narrative on the Dravidian years of Tamil Nadu. At an important juncture of Tamil Nadu politics, it also makes us wonder: With no charismatic leader in the horizon, who can take the state forward?

Download or read book Anna written by R Kannan and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AN ILLUMINATING ACCOUNT OF THE DMK AND ITS CHARISMATIC FOUNDER In 1967, C.N. Annadurai became the chief minister of Madras state, when his party, the DMK, swept to power for the first time. In this definitive biography, R. Kannan traces the growth of Annadurai—from a young protégé of the radical thinker Periyar E.V. Ramasamy into a revered leader known as Anna, or elder brother. Kannan draws on Anna’s considerable body of writing, and the memoirs of other leaders and authors in Tamil, to candidly examine Anna’s complex relationship with Periyar and his disillusionment with the corruption he witnessed when in power. Featuring luminaries like Rajagopalachari and Kamaraj, K. Karunanidhi and MGR, among many others, Anna offers a warm and rounded portrait of a man who showed the way for the democratic expression of regional aspirations within a united India.

Download or read book The Light of Knowledge written by Francis Cody and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1990s hundreds of thousands of Tamil villagers in southern India have participated in literacy lessons, science demonstrations, and other events designed to transform them into active citizens with access to state power. These efforts to spread enlightenment among the oppressed are part of a movement known as the Arivoli Iyakkam (the Enlightenment Movement), considered to be among the most successful mass literacy movements in recent history. In The Light of Knowledge, Francis Cody’s ethnography of the Arivoli Iyakkam highlights the paradoxes inherent in such movements that seek to emancipate people through literacy when literacy is a power-laden social practice in its own right. The Light of Knowledge is set primarily in the rural district of Pudukkottai in Tamil Nadu, and it is about activism among laboring women from marginalized castes who have been particularly active as learners and volunteers in the movement. In their endeavors to remake the Tamil countryside through literacy activism, workers in the movement found that their own understanding of the politics of writing and Enlightenment was often transformed as they encountered vastly different notions of language and imaginations of social order. Indeed, while activists of the movement successfully mobilized large numbers of rural women, they did so through logics that often pushed against the very Enlightenment rationality they hoped to foster. Offering a rare behind-the-scenes look at an increasingly important area of social and political activism, The Light of Knowledge brings tools of linguistic anthropology to engage with critical social theories of the postcolonial state.

Download or read book The Dravidian Model written by Kalaiyarasan A. and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book adds to the growing literature on dynamics of regional development in the global South by mapping the politics and processes contributing to the distinct developmental trajectory of Tamil Nadu, southern India. Using a novel interpretive framework and drawing upon fresh data and literature, it seeks to explain the social and economic development of the state in terms of populist mobilization against caste-based inequalities. Dominant policy narratives on inclusive growth assume a sequential logic whereby returns to growth are used to invest in socially inclusive policies. By focusing more on redistribution of access to opportunities in the modern economy, Tamil Nadu has sustained a relatively more inclusive and dynamic growth process. Democratization of economic opportunities has made such broad-based growth possible even as interventions in social sectors reinforce the former. The book thus also speaks to the nascent literature on the relationship between the logic of modernisation and status based inequalities in the global South.

Download or read book Passions of the Tongue written by Sumathi Ramaswamy and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why would love for their language lead several men in southern India to burn themselves alive in its name? Passions of the Tongue analyzes the discourses of love, labor, and life that transformed Tamil into an object of such passionate attachment, producing in the process one of modern India's most intense movements for linguistic revival and separatism. Sumathi Ramaswamy suggests that these discourses cannot be contained within a singular metanarrative of linguistic nationalism and instead proposes a new analytic, "language devotion." She uses this concept to track the many ways in which Tamil was imagined by its speakers and connects these multiple imaginings to their experience of colonial and post-colonial modernity. Focusing in particular on the transformation of the language into a goddess, mother, and maiden, Ramaswamy explores the pious, filial, and erotic aspects of Tamil devotion. She considers why, as its speakers sought political and social empowerment, metaphors of motherhood eventually came to dominate representations of the language.
