CONTEMPORARY POLITICAL THEORY

By: VINOD, M. J.,DESHPANDE, MEENA

Intended as a text for the postgraduate students of political science, this well-researched book attempts to track the evolution of political ideas in the recent past and their background. It brings out the contemporary epistemological and methodological debates within the discipline and social sciences as a whole, and incorporates the latest developments in the field. Divided into forty chapters under eleven parts, the book deals with the core concepts and debates in political theory, and focuses on the state-society interactions. It tries to explain how the states, societies and cultures have responded to the emerging challenges thrown up by the social, economic and political factors, and the direction of the response. It also dwells on the impact of globalisation on current trends. Finally, the book analyses the ideas of modern Indian thinkers such as V.D. Savarkar, Jawaharlal Nehru, Ram Manohar Lohia, B.R. Ambedkar and Jayaprakash Narayan. Besides the postgraduate students of political science, the book would also be useful to the aspirants of civil services examinations and the initiated readers.

THE IDEAS OF MODERN INDIAN POLITICAL THINKERS ON WOMEN

By: Dr. Meena Gaikwad

India has a long past civilization and in every stage of its history, women constitute half of its population, but their position in society is not the same in all the ages of history. Their position has been variously estimated and diametrically opposite views are expressed regarding their place in different stages of Indian civilization (Parmar, 1973). Several factors including foreign invasions for centuries together, social movements, various geographic regions, different economic occupations, political stability and instability and religious affinity of the family to which woman belongs have always greatly influenced her status in the family as well as in the community (Gaur, 1980).

Present world is witnessing drastic changes harshly impacting its bio-resources (plants, animals and organisms) that are considered as natural gift for our livelihood. Global warming, climate change, abiotic and biotic stresses are strangling and challenging the survivability of these resources. It is therefore crucial to manage these resources for making planet Earth more suitable to live. Moreover, there is an utter need to know how climate dynamic and biotic or abiotic factors are influencing on bio-resources and also to frame its sustainable management strategies. This book is the output of the research deliberations at 3rd International Conference on Bio-resource and Stress Management, India; and expert views on contemporary research and management issues in relation to bio-resources and its management. This timely needed uniquely written reference book consists of 29 well-crafted chapters on sustainable land, water and crop management, organic agriculture, climate change and crop productivity, stress management, bio-resource conservation, bio-fortification for nutritional security, agro-techniques, agro-forestry and forest resource management and waste management etc. which certainly will be of great use by the scientists, academician, researches, scholars, students, extension workers, corporate and NGO’s working in these aspects.

Effect of Irrigation Levels, Crop Geometry and Mulch on Growth, Yield and Quality of Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) Grown under Drip System

By: Rupesh Kumar Meena

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2018 in the subject Agrarian Studies, , language: English, abstract: A field experiment was conducted for two consecutive rabi seasons of 2015-16 and 2016-17 at Niche Area Excellence Farm, Swami Keshwanand Rajasthan Agricultural University, Bikaner to study the effect of irrigation levels, crop geometry and mulch on growth, yield and quality of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) grown under drip system. The experiment was laid out in split plot design and replicated thrice. The treatments comprised of four irrigation levels viz. 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1 ETc in the main plot, three crop geometry viz. normal sowing at 50 cm row spacing, paired row sowing at 60 cm x 40 cm and paired row sowing at 30 cm x 70 cm in the sub-plot and two mulch viz. no mulch and plastic mulch in the sub-sub plot. The soil was poor in organic carbon (0.10%), available nitrogen content (85.31 kg ha-1), medium in phosphorus (19.4 kg ha-1) and potassium (315.2 kg ha-1) content and saline in reaction pH (8.34). Fennel variety RF-101 with seed rate of 10 kg ha-1 was grown following the recommended package of practices for zone- IC (hyper arid partially irrigated western plain zone). The results revealed that growth, yield and quality of fennel were significantly influenced by different irrigation levels, crop geometry as well as mulch. Pooled mean results showed that irrigation at 1.0 ETc gave the highest plant height, dry matter accumulation at 40, 70, 100 DAS and harvest, branches plant-1, chlorophyll content of leaves at 75 DAS. However, irrigation at 0.8 ETc increased root parameters viz., fresh weight of root per plant, root dry weight per plant, root volume and root: shoot ratio recorded at 100 DAS. Irrigation level of 1.0 ETc recorded highest number of umbels plant-1, number of umbellates umbel-1, number of seeds umbel-1, test weight, seed yield (1714 kg ha-1), stover yield (3168 kg ha-1), biological yield (4851 kg ha-1), nitrogen content and uptake, oil yield, protein content, relative water content, net return (104988 ha-1) and B:C ratio (3.58), but all these parameters were at par with 0.8 ETc. However, water use efficiency (5.48 kg ha-1 mm-1) was highest at 0.6 ETc irrigation level. Results further revealed that irrigation level 0.8 ETc recorded significantly higher seed yield by 78.01 and 10.35%, stover yield by 29.09 and 6.11% and biological yield by 42.89 and 7.56% over 0.4 and 0.6 ETc irrigation levels, respectively.
