Gender Equality has become a buzzword in different form across the globe. New books and literatures on Women development have been appearing with increasing rapidity. The ongoing globalization process has generated an over optimism around the globe. It has created an atmosphere of excitement of instant economic growth. But moving very fast in the economic ladder does not mean much unless it. Gender Equality has become a buzzword in different form across the globe. New books and literatures on Women development have been appearing with increasing rapidity. The ongoing globalization process has generated an over optimism around the globe. It has created an atmosphere of excitement of instant economic growth. But moving very fast in the economic ladder does not mean much unless it brings social development. The feminization of jobs in India is less meaningful. Because the ongoing commercialization process displaces the women, the neo-patriarchy gradually gets institutionalized at several spheres: work, culture, customs, religion and education. She is not free to think as an individual. Technology and science has remained as divisive as before. Software is dominated by females, while hardware is dominated by males. The preference for boy-child, dropout rate among girl-student, dowry, violence and dowry-related death have not decreased among the educated class. Thus we need a meaningful social transformation, which gives the equal human status to women. Empowerment of women is not a product but a process to evolve from the society itself but not to be triggered by outside donors or agencies. This book argues for genuine women development. It examines the gender implications of the economic development process. It highlights the impact of industrialization and economic development on women. It analyses the gender equality under the broader framework of human development. It argues that the idea of women development should be less nebulous and more practical. It asserts that we should have gender budgeting women empowerment in order to build a prosperous society. The author provides a systematic treatment organizing the increasingly influential new political economy as a more established field at the highly productive intersection of economics and society. By using his insightful experience the author demonstrates that national policies are the key deter.

Hyderabad, India: Orient BlackSwan, 2011 While recent research on adivasis under colonial rule tends to focus on issues of identity politics, categories and definitions, it is important to emphasise that the histories of adivasis were shaped by the constantly evolving British policy towards them, their own unique features, socio-cultural traditions, and the nature of their integration within the colonial state, which in turn determined their self-definitions and their relations with others. This book brings back a focus on the colonial history of adivasis and discusses the issue of their identity against this background. It is a study of the Hos of Chota Nagpur from 1820, when they first came into contact with the British, to 1932, when their protests took the form of religious reform movements in an attempt to develop a distinct tribal identity. In their encounter with the British, the Hos were confronted with several challenges, such as their role in the changing political system; their right of access to local territory and forest resources; the growing influx of outsiders into their villages; and the restructuring of indigenous institutions of authority. While dealing with these circumstances, albeit with varying degrees of success, the Hos developed an ethnic and political awareness vis-?vis the British, other adivasis, and the non-adivasi population, leading to the Haribaba movement for self-purification and other socio-religious reform movements. Meticulously researched and replete with statistical data, a detailed glossary and bibliography, this insightful volume will be useful for scholars and students of history, sociology and anthropology.
