A decision of a woman's immature age made her realize the meaning of life through many different, incredible, thrilling experiences – one after the other – and its depth. Even though she lost everything in the battle of life, she did not let her loved one be looked down upon anywhere. She discovered that the loved one can never be avenged. Life once convinced her that what sometimes appears the end may seem like the beginning of something else!

Makeshift Migrants and Law

Makeshift Migrants and Law

Gender, Belonging, and Postcolonial Anxieties

By: Ratna Kapur

This book unmasks the cultural and gender stereotypes that inform the legal regulation of the migrant. It critiques the postcolonial perspective on how belonging and non-belonging are determined by the sexual, cultural, and familial norms on which law is based as well as the historical backdrop of the colonial encounter, which differentiated overtly between the legitimate and illegitimate subject. The complexities and layering of the migrant’s existence are seen, in the book, to be obscured by the apparatus of the law. The author elaborates on how law can both advance and impede the rights of the migrant subject and how legal interventions are constructed around frameworks rooted in the boundaries of difference, protection of the sovereignty of the nation-state, and the myth of the all-embracing liberal subject. This produces the ‘Other’ and reinforces essentialised assumptions about gender and cultural difference. The author foregrounds the perspective of the subaltern migrant subject, exposing the deeper issues implicated in the debates over migration and the rights claims of migrants, primarily in the context of women and religious minorities in India.

Women and Households in Indonesia

Cultural Notions and Social Practices

By: Juliette Koning,Marleen Nolten,Janet Rodenburg,Ratna Saptari

Critically examines the usefulness of the 'household; concept within the historically and culturally diverse context of Indonesia, exploring in detail the position of women within and beyond domestic arrangements. So far, classical household and kinship studies have not studied how women deal with two major forces which shape and define their world: local kinship traditions, and the universalising ideology of the Indonesian regime, which both provide prescriptions and prohibitions concerning family, marriage, and womanhood. Women are caught between these conflicting notions and practices. How they challenge or accommodate such forces is the main issue in this book.

A Nation of Family and Friends?

Sport and the Leisure Cultures of British Asian Girls and Women

By: Aarti Ratna

In A Nation of Family and Friends, sociologist Aarti Ratna examines the complex and dynamic relationships between South Asian women and sporting and leisure cultures. Mining autobiographical insights (as a South Asian scholar living in the UK) she links the chapters of this innovative book using the sociological concepts of family and friends, particularly as they relate to an analysis of wider debates about the complexities of race, gender, and the nation. Ratna underscores the importance of studying informal spaces of sport and leisure as friendly, familial, sociable, and political spaces. She simultaneously highlights the role of earlier sociological research in disseminating myths about South Asian women as too physically weak to play competitive sports; culturally passive victims of South Asian cultures and religions; and as sexually exotic women requiring saving through colonial and imperial projects led by white men and women. Ratna also examines two key cultural objects - the popular films "Bend it Like Beckham" and “Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal” - to examine in detail the gendered representation of South Asian soccer players’ engagement in amateur and elite levels of the sport. She critiques studies of women’s football fandom and sport that fail to acknowledge social differences relating to race, class, age, disability, and sexuality. By linking the social forces (across time and space) that differentially affect their sporting choices and leisure lifestyles, Ratna portrays the women of the South Asian diaspora as active agents in the shaping of their life courses and as skilled navigators of the complexities affecting their own identities. Ultimately Ratna examines the intersections of class, caste, age, generation, gender, and sexuality, to provide a rich and critical exploration of British Asian women's sport and leisure choices, pleasures, and lived realities.

Gender, Alterity and Human Rights

Freedom in a Fishbowl

By: Ratna Kapur

Human rights are axiomatic with liberal freedom. Yet more rights for women, sexual and religious minorities, has had disempowering and exclusionary effects. Revisiting campaigns for same-sex marriage, violence against women, and Islamic veil bans, Gender, Alterity and Human Rights lays bare how human rights emerge as a project of containment and unfreedom rather than meaningful freedom. Kapur provocatively argues that the futurity of human rights rests in turning away from liberal freedom and towards non-liberal registers of freedom.

Integrated Assessment of Scale Impacts of Watershed Intervention

Assessing Hydrogeological and Bio-physical Influences on Livelihoods

By: V. Ratna Reddy,Geoffrey J. Syme

Integrated Assessment of Scale Impacts of Watershed Interventions is the outcome of a multi-disciplinary research team of social scientists, hydrologists (groundwater and surface water), modellers; and bio-physical scientists who have worked together over five years to develop an integrated model of the sustainability of biophysical, economic and social impacts of watersheds. Impacts of watershed interventions are assessed at upstream, mid-stream and downstream locations of two hydrological units that are characterised with differential bio-physical attributes. The editors propose that watershed interventions, when integrated with hydro-geology and bio-physical aspects, have greater influence on the resilience of the socio-ecological system. This book takes these aspects in to consideration and in the process provides insights in to watershed design and implementation. - Integrates hydrogeology, bio-physical, and socioeconomic aspects of watersheds in a hydrological context - Provides a comprehensive understanding of the impacts of watershed interventions - Assesses the role of watershed interventions in enhancing household resilience - Provides hydrological and socio-economic methodologies for design of sustainble watershed interventions including scale and institutional arrangements for implementing and sustaining watershed interventions

Morality for the Ailing and Others

An Anthology on Applied Ethics

By: Indrani Sanyal,Ratna Dutta Sharma

An Anthology on Applied Ethics, volume 2 is a collection of ten articles written by distinguished scholars who have provided exciting and interesting introduction to some domains of medical ethics, environmental ethics, ethics of politics, exploratory account of moral domains centring female sexuality, women’s position in society and prescribed code of conduct for women and analytic explanation of some hard-core ethical concepts and theories. This publication aims at carrying out the task of emphasizing the link, if any, between hard-core ethical theories and their applications to real life practical situations with special reference to Indian texts and literature. However, any holistic approach to ethics as a branch of philosophy hardly can deny drawing some contrast, comparison and analogy with the Western paradigms. The present anthology is no exception to this custom. Strictly speaking, this is a book on Applied Ethics which aims at exploring concrete suggestions, as far as possible, to meet challenges posed before human beings arising from moral conflicts and dilemmas at different levels of life. Whoever is interested in applied ethics – whether a researcher or a student or a lay reader – will be enormously benefited by the richness of the content of this volume. Authors have sharpened theoretical tools as per their requirements and credibly covered some of the fuzzy areas of practical moral situations. Articles are written in clear language and in very lucid but argumentative style.

FISH TOXICOLOGY

By: Prof. Dr. Ratna Vyankat Kirtane

Now a days aquaculture has increased its potential by using powerful tools and systematic technology. Ofcourse these technologies develop Aquaculture technology but on other hand intense activity in Industrial and agricultural sectors had inaviability increased the level of heavy metals, pesticides in natural waters among which pesticides play a major role among pollutants of aquatic environment. When we take spotlight on the impact of pesticides some pyrethroid causes hazardous impact on fishes, many aquaculture researchers had made research on impact of pyrthoid in various terms. Most of the work had been carried out outside India and least attempts had been carried out in India. Pyrethroid insecticides are used on a worldwide scale. It has been calculated that pyrethroids accounted for 25% of the insecticide market in the industrial countries in the 90s. Pyrethroids are the most common insecticides for both indoor and agricultural purposes. Their chief advantages are high insecticidal potency and low mammalian toxicity with rapid metabolism and lack of terrestrial accumulation.

Listen to the House

By: Ratna Rao Shekar

It is the countries, the cities, the streets, the houses we have grown up in that define our lives. How can we ever escape them? We look at our life years later by the streets we have played in, the houses we have lived in, and the cities whose bylanes we crisscrossed. We are that memory finally. Listen to the House is the story of two girls who travel the world but are rooted in the houses they grew up in, and anchored to each other by the long letters they exchange, no matter where they are. And this they do through their lives in whatever situations they are. The novel evokes an old Hyderabad that no longer exists, a slowness of life that has died, and friendships that have all but disappeared.
