Download or read book Jammu Kashmir written by Bilal Ahmad Khan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-03-25 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents a comprehensive treatment of unemployment and economic problems in Jammu & Kashmir. Kashmir, being a conflict-ridden zone, has far less opportunities for employment than rest of the other states. With an underdeveloped industrial sector and the inability of government to create enough jobs, there seems to be no immediate solution. Lack of avenues to engage the youth in meaningful ways result in making miscreants out of many of them. Young populations across the world are generally seen as drivers of socio-economic growth, but in Kashmir, the youth bulge is a problem. Unemployed youths destabilize the economy by being used to create mayhem by the anti-social elements in the region. Underdevelopment and unemployment in Jammu & Kashmir is the manifestation of a mismatch between physical and human resources. This exists when a large segment of the working age population does not possess the appropriate skills and knowledge to be gainfully employed. In addition, lackadaisical and imprudent policies pursued by subsequent governments are the major challenge. A radical shift in its policies, especially in the education sector, is an absolute prerequisite for the birth of a capable workforce. The remedy lies in revamping the education sector by crafting appropriate policies for suitable skills in line with the socio-economic requirements of the society. The book argues the government must think about a long-term plan for unemployed youth and devise a policy to channel the youth bulge constructively.

Download or read book Gender Challenges written by Bina Agarwal and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-21 with total page 1248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An internationally acclaimed economist, Bina Agarwal is known for her path-breaking writings on agriculture, property rights, and the environment. Her three-volume compendium brings together a selection of her essays, written over three decades. Combining diverse disciplines, methodologies, and cross-country comparisons, the essays challenge standard economic analyses and assumptions from a gender perspective. They provide original insights on a wide range of theoretical, empirical, and policy issues of continuing importance in contemporary debates. The first volume spans varied dimensions of the author’s writings on agrarian change, from 1981 to the present. It identifies gender inequalities in the impact of agricultural modernisation and technical change across Asia and Africa; the links between women, poverty, and economic growth processes; and data biases in measuring women’s work. It traces the gendered costs of droughts and famine, and challenges top-down methods of innovation diffusion. Focusing on the key role of women farmers in food security, it also offers innovative solutions, including public land banks and group farming. The second volume focuses on the author’s paradigm-shifting work on women’s property status in South Asia. Challenging conventional approaches to women’s empowerment, it demonstrates how promoting access to property, especially land, is key to enhancing women’s economic and social well-being and deterring domestic violence. It details gender inequalities in inheritance laws, public policies, and land struggles, and presents the bargaining framework for understanding and finding ways of overcoming these inequalities, both within families and in markets, communities, and vis-à-vis the state. This third volume traces the relationship between gender and environmental change. Critiquing ecofeminist assumptions, it presents an alternative theoretical framework. It also examines the causes of women’s absence as well as the impact of their presence in environmental collective action. Based on innovative fieldwork on community institutions for forest governance, the author demonstrates how a critical mass of women can significantly improve conservation outcomes. In conclusion, she reflects on which features of feminist scholarship make for an effective challenge to mainstream economics.
Download or read book Women State and Ideology written by Haleh Afshar and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1987-06-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women, State, and Ideology examines the underlying ideologies that make female subordination a universal experience. It analyzes government policies directed at women in African and Asian countries. It argues, too, that ideologies which oppress women are removed only by prolonged struggleand then only after fundamental political and social changes have been made. The authors evaluate different policies aimed at women in Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Ghana, Iran, Malaysia, China, India, Israel, and Vietnam. Despite different political, social, and economic conditions, there exists a general assumption that women should be responsible for domestic duties. Drawing on new research, the authors indicate that these different national contexts require separate emphases and tactics. One common factor is clear, howeverthat despite many setbacks, a growing consciousness exists among women, as well as increased opposition to oppressive measures.

This book was released on 2020-06-11 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction Migration is a multi-faceted phenomenon, which is of vital importance in the process of economic development, man-power planning, urbanization and social change. (Rao, M.S.B. 1986). It is a pragmatic and a ubiquitous phenomena as through out the globe we find that migration is contributing to the socio-economic development which enables man to overcome the tyranny of political, social, economic and psychological fluctuations of a region. Like, for instance, the partition of India and Pakistan was one of the major catalysts for migration during late 1940’s when millions of persons abandoned this land and migrated to Pakistan and vice versa. Similarly, of late, many Indian computer engineers are migrating to western countries thus leading to brain drain, which is causing a severe menace of the millennium. Since time immemorial man has been ruthlessly migrating from one place to another and nowadays because of the increased transportation and communication man is more agile. Thus migration is entirely determined by the human yearning for the decision to move. Individual migration also brings changes in the process of family formation and growth. Once migration has occurred from the land of origin, both the household and the local population must adapt to the loss or gain. However the impact of an individual migration on the origin depends on the duration of absence and remittances returned. (David, P.L. 1996).
