Today, in this ultra modern world, the role of media and particularly of print media has been augmenting day by day. It has been serving as a vigilant watchdog of India. Print Media has created an awareness among the people regarding their rights and duties. Print Media has been nicknamed as ‘News Monger’ or the Fourth Estate. We can update ourselves just by going through the morning newspaper, getting each and every kind of news from every nook and comer of the world. It is due to the effect of the Print media that people associated with robberies, thefts, murders, rapes, drugs and alcoholism are working in an apprehension of being caught and recognized. They are now constantly under fear of being caught by the law enforcing agencies. There has been a worldwide growth of the print media even after the emergence of the electronic media. There has been an increase in the circulation of newspapers around the world even after the emergence of electronic media and the internet. The ...

In India, the Khilafat Movement and the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre brought Mahatma Gandhi into prominence. His non-cooperation campaigns of 1921, his Salt Satyagraha in 1930 and finally his ‘Quit India’ movement in 1942 along with the developments back home forced the British to grant  independence and sovereignty to India. In this process, not a single action using force and violence can he cited which Gandhiji or one of his millions of followers indulged in. The splinter groups in the Indian National Congress who did not agree on this method of achieving independence and thought violence to be the only method leading to the country’s freedom broke away from Gandhiji and the Congress, but Gandhiji did not compromise his ideals at the expense of expediency. For him the end justified the means and since the end of India’s independence was something noble and unique, it had to be achieved through noble and peaceful means. Gandhiji was basically a social reformer who spiritualised...

Introduction Social scientists should give no policy advice, but should rather point out, publicly, the shortcomings of policies- Morton A. Kaplan [and Philip Green] et al., Strategic Thinking and its Moral Implications, University of Chicago Center for Policy Study, 1973, p.67. Social defence in common parlance means the protection of society against crime through a systematically organized and coherent action by both the State, civil society people’s group. Though this term has long been in use in the criminological and penological literature, the modes and modalities of achieving its inherent objective have been shifting with the advancement in social sciences and behavioural disciplines.  Even today, because of the complexity of issues involved, it has not been possible to evolve a wholly satisfactory theoretical framework for policy formulation and programme development in this field.   Whereas the initial interpretation of the notion of social defence implied ...

A curriculum viate (pronounced kari-kyu-lam-veetai) or a CV, also known as a resume (pronounced re-zyu-may) in American English, is a brief written account of your personal details, such as full name, address and telephone number, educational qualifications, previous work experience, languages spoken, and sometimes also your intests, that you send with a short letter of application when you are trying to get a job or admission to a course of study.

The facts have to persuade the employer and show him/her that the applicant has the qualities the employer is looking for. When in use a Curriculum Vitae Use a curriculum vitae only when the employer specifically asks for one in the position advertised. If i...

Communalism is a modern phenomenon. It had its roots in the modern colonial socio-economic political structure. Communalism emerged as a result of the emergence of new, modern politics based on the people and on popular participation and mobilisation. It made it necessary to have wider links and loyalties among the people and to form new identities. This process was bound to be difficult, gradual and complex. This process required the birth and spread of modern ideas of nation, class and cultural-linguistic identity. These identities, being new and unfamiliar, arose and grew slowly and in a zig-zag fashion. Quite often people used the old, familiar pre-modern identity of caste, locality, sect and religion to grasp the new reality, to make wider connections and to evolve new entities. This has happened all over the world. But gradually the modern and historically-necessary identities of nation, nationality and class have prevailed. Unfortunately, in India this process has remain...

I suggested earlier that it would he a mistake to regard the cultural struggle now going on as a straight fight between, say, what The ‘limes and the picture-dailies represent. To wish that a majority of the population will ever read The times is to wish that the human beings were constitutionally different, and is to fall into an intellectual snobbery. The ahihiy to read the decent weeklies is not a sine qua non of the the good life. It seems unlikely it any tune, and is certainly not likely in any period which those of us now alive are likely to know dial a majority in any class will have strongly intellectual pursuits. There are other ways of being in the truth. The strongest objection to the more trivial popular extcriainrnenls is not that they prevent their readers from becoming highbrow, hut ihat they make it harder for people without an intellectual bent to become wise in their own way. The fact that changes in English society over the last fifty years have greatly increase...
