Hardcover. Condition: As New. Contents: Preface. 1. Introduction: the triple handicap. 2. An overview of past state initiatives. 3. Research methodology: topographic and demographic details. 4. An alternative strategy: the AWARE experiment. 5. Impact of the empowerment strategy. 6. An independent assessment of the AWARE strategy…. 7. Why AWARE is successful. 8. Some select case studies. 9. Conclusions. Annexures. Select bibliography. Index. "Conventional approaches to women's empowerment are based on the twin assumptions that alleviation of poverty will automatically lead to their empowerment and that the major constraint on programmes for upliftment is monetary. The result of five decades of planning, however, has shown that economic assistance by itself does not necessarily improve the status of women. Dr. Sakuntala Narasimhan argues that the more vital inhibiting factors leading to the disadvantaged position of women are their ignorance, powerlessness and vulnerability. This immensely insightful book emphasises the need for bringing about an attitudinal change among women as the most important step towards empowerment. "Dr. Narasimhan focuses specifically on rural scheduled caste and scheduled tribe women, who, she says, are triply disadvantaged as women, as members of the rural section of the populace and because of their low-caste status. The book compares the effectiveness of state initiatives with the motivation-and-conscientisation strategy advocated by AWARE (Action for Welfare and Awakening in Rural Environment), a non-governmental development organisation working in 6,000 villages spread over seven states in India. It analyses the success of AWARE's work among women through various case studies and concludes that, besides monetary resources, it is the mindset of the policy makers, bureaucrats and particularly the women concerned that must change in order to assist the empowerment of women. "This pioneering book provides a refreshing perspective on an issue that has long been a topic of discussion among theorists of development as well as activists. It will be of interest to policy makers, bureaucrats, non-governmental organisations, social workers and those in the fields of development studies, gender studies and sociology.".

Tangkul Naga/L. Dwijen Sing. Connotated dictionary. Explanatory notes. Place name. Personal name. Appendix. From the Foreword This book is divided into two parts. While the first part deals with the place names and personal names the second part deals with the dictionary of place names and personal names. In many respects these two aspects are complimentary to each other and hence this volume is going to be of immense value to scholars such as linguists folklorists anthropologists and general readers. The efforts of Anthropological Survey of India is to extend the earlier venture in different communities in more details as well as to present a connotative dictionary on place names and personal names which may explore a new dimension in the linguistic research in the country. 330 pp.
