Download or read book Livelihood and Gender written by Sumi Krishna and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2004-02-20 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extrait de la couverture : "Contrary to expectations, the recent emphasis on environmental and communitarian rights (as in wasteland and watershed development in South Asia) has reinforced existing gender biases and created new inequalities. This significant volume critically examiines the complex and many-layered process of mainstreaming gender in natural resource management. The contributors build a richly textured 'genderscape' of community resource rights in varied contexts ; unravel the gender barriers in traditional practices, community institutions and modern systems of governance ; document diverse approaches to livelihood ; and present a strong case for gender equity in sustainable resource management."
Download or read book Agriculture and a Changing Environment in Northeastern India written by Sumi Krishna and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2020-11-29 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India’s northeastern region, forged by a unique geological history and peopled by several waves of migration, is extraordinarily complex. Farming systems in the hills and the riverine plains are embedded in a heterogeneous environment, comprising forests, wetlands and fields, shaped over centuries by nature and people. Today, the environment and economy are undergoing rapid transformation, affecting peoples’ lives, livelihoods and methods of food production. The essays in this volume bring a multi-disciplinary perspective to critical aspects of the process of agricultural change, examine the gender dimensions of agriculture, and explore initiatives for sustainable livelihood and ecological conservation. Part I analyses the impact of policies and people’s own aspirations on the closely-intertwined ecology and economy of the region. Part II discusses the gender dynamics of farming, forestry and biodiversity in a socio-cultural context where women are primarily responsible for food production. Part III highlights some alternative farming interventions and community-based efforts for environmental conservation, sustainable resource management and improved livelihoods. This book will be useful to scholars and students of agriculture, economics, development, environment and gender studies, and to those involved in policy analysis, natural resource management and community organisation, as also general readers interested in India’s northeastern region.

Download or read book Displaced by Development written by Lyla Mehta and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2009-01-06 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compilation is a rare attempt to apply gender analysis to development-induced-displacement and resettlement in the Indian context. It brings together leading scholar-activists, researchers and contributors from people’s movements to critique and draw attention to the injustices perpetrated during such processes. Facing up to the need to focus specifically on how displacement and resettlement affect social groups differently with regard to axes such as gender, class, caste and tribe, the articles show that disenfranchised groups are deemed dispensable and tend to be affected the most, and that women and children among them suffer disproportionately. Displaced by Development: Confronting Marginalisation and Gender Injustice argues that without differentiated analyses and programmes, displacement and resettlement will continue to intensify and perpetuate gender and social injustice. This work will hold the interest of a wide readership and will be a crucial source of information for those working in the areas of Gender and Social Policy, Economics and Development Studies, Sociology of Gender, Environment and Development, Migration Studies, Anthropology, and South Asian studies. It will also interest policy makers in development agencies, activists and non-governmental organisations concerned with forced displacement and migration issues.
Download or read book SENE THE GODDESS OF TRIBAL EMPOWERMENT written by Dr. Bhupinder Singh IAS [Retd.] and published by South Vision Books. This book was released on 2022-07-10 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Bhupinder Singh IAS [Retd.] has devoted himself to social justice in the cause of tribals and marginalised sections of India, passionately evolving concepts and driving policies etc. during his entire career in the Indian Administrative Service and post-retirement, a total of nearly six decades. He brought energy, empathy, passion and scholarship to what he regarded not a job but life’s dedicated goal. He is widely recognised as a thought leader and authored three committees’ seminal reports. The first one on Jharkhand led to the formation of the new state. The Bodo Councils were born out of the report on Plains tribes of Assam. The tribal-customized Panchayat system in Scheduled Areas of nine States burgeoned based on the recommendations in the third report for the proposed law on extension of the provisions of the Constitution [73rd amendment] Act, 1992 to Scheduled Areas. Federal India was historically reconfigured. As a member of the second Commission on Scheduled Areas and Scheduled Tribes set up by the Government of India under Article 339(1), he played a key role in its activities and particularly in writing in major part its 2004 report. Post-retirement, he continues to tirelessly champion the cause in many ways. The Author felt the need to turn to fiction since any number of Central and State reports have produced disproportionately lower outcomes. He hopes that a work of sociological-fiction might spread interest among members of civil society, and create waves among millions of tribal friends all over the country through the messages of goddess Sene delivered, hopefully, in their own languages, to demand and secure their rights and entitlements democratically.

Download or read book Gender Relations in Forest Societies in Asia written by Govind Kelkar and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2003-12-06 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extrait de la couverture : "Of the numerous available studies on forest management in Asia, only a few mention the role of women or pay attention to gender relations. Even projects are largely designed in terms of households or communities where men are the decision-makers and the owners or managers of forests. This important volume views gender relations as a crucial factor in the management of land and forests, and maintains that the continuing invisibility of women in these areas only compounds poverty, shortages, and the increased workloads of forest-based women. Based on fieldwork conducted in several forest societies in China, Thailand, India and Malaysia, the contributors explore the changes in gender relations within indigenous communities, from matrilineal and/or gender egalitarian systems to ones where male domination is the norm."
