Book Description
‘From JNU to Jadavpur, anti-national movement spreads!’—Zee News ‘Activism or anti-nationalism?’—Times Now ‘Dalit students on warpath after Vemula suicide’ —First Post ‘Violence on Ramjas campus: no room for free, peaceful political debate’—NDTV ‘Kashmir University students protest anti–free speech circular’—Quint These are but a tiny sample of headlines that have become commonplace in India in recent years. What is it about the present moment in the life of our nation that has stirred so many thousands of young citizens into political action? And what is it about the nature of their protests that is threatening enough for the establishment to brand it ‘anti-national’? The wave of youth protests, agitations, and marches that gripped India in the last few years were not, Nikhila Henry argues, sporadic, isolated, or piecemeal. Rather, they were an organized effort against a fractured, unforgiving, and deeply discriminatory society. The participants, despite differences, often found convergence and empathy for each other, and fought larger battles: battles of the Dalit, of the Adivasi, of the Kashmiri, of the Women, of the Muslim. In so doing, it was not simply entrenched discrimination they highlighted. In so doing, they questioned fundamental ideas of public morality and the very essence that makes us a united nation.

Teacher-student Relationship and Its Impact on Student Unrest
Author: Subhas Chandra Ghose
Publisher: Northern Book Centre
ISBN: 9788185119700
Category : Students
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
Throw light upon the causes that contribute to the restlessness among students. Students are not to be blamed for their being restive and violent. They are the products of the situations in which they are being raised. They are what they are shaped to be. Since the ancient times an authoritarian tendency has characterised the attitudes of teachers among others in authority in educational institutions towards the students. Students have not had the necessary attention and affection. The most important of the causes stands out to be the absence of cordial teacher-student relationship plus the conducive educational and institutional environment. Recommendations It is interesting to note that a good teacher, even if he is not a good man, is more respected than a bad teacher who may be a good man. It is obvious, therefore, that professional excellency and commitment on the part of the teachers will go a long way to curb student unrest in our educational institutions. Dr. S.N. Ratha, Professor and Head, Post Graduate Department of Anthropology and Sociology, Sambalpur University, Orissa. ``The author has done his work critically and well. He has chosen a new parameter-Teacher-student Relationship'-in his study and is well taken. From authors like McCormack to Altbach, very few authors have explored this dimension of the problem except very tangentially. Mr. Ghose's is a full-length study on this dimension with all its ramifications. I congratulate the author for his painstaking and critical expose.........'' Bela Dutt Gupta, Professor of Sociology, Calcutta University, West Bengal. ``I recommend ................ for its originality and boldness. I think the results of this study be known to all teachers and educationists.'' Dr. N.C. Choudhary, Professor of Sociology and Social Anthroplogy, University of North Bengal. Review ``The findings are logically arrived at and cogently presented in a readable simple style. No doubt this book will be useful to all those who have interest in the areas of sociology, education, political sociology in general and to those who are interested in the problems affecting the youth in particular''.

Universities As Transformative Social Spaces
Author: Andrea Kolbel
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192865579
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
The realm of higher education, much like everything else in a global and mobile world, has rapidly altered in the last few decades. More and more universities and seats of higher education are using strategies towards ' 'internationalization'; by increasing heterogeneity in rank, student composition, resource endowments, faculty profiles, and their social spaces. The essays in this volume take a critical look at universities across South Asia, more specifically, at the dynamics of student mobility and mobilizations existing in such localized social spaces, and compares these with their counterparts in universities across the world. While elite universities in South Asia, as elsewhere, have been caught in a stiff international competition and are aspiring for the highest ranks, students from the most excluded communities and remote parts of the country seek entry to badly endowed universities, facing obstacles during their courses, and upon seeking entry into employment. The volume evaluates such universities as spaces for mobility opportunity and mobilizations in a globally networked world. It combines local and international perspectives with thorough observations of the dynamics in localized university spaces while embedding them in transnational processes.
