India's Waste Problem: Envisaging a Just Transition
Indian policymakers, from Jairam Ramesh (of the Congress) to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, have, in particular, spoken about the need for toilets over temples (Ramesh 2014; Press Trust of India 2013). Waste management is at the forefront of the Prime Minister's Office's(PMO) flagship programme Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, the primary goal of which is to end open defecation. Doron and Jeffrey employ the use of several detailed case studies, textual analysis, archival research work and interviews with people who work with waste.1 The authors highlight the presence of both continuity and change that is to be found within and outside India in dealing with the question of waste. [...]to the novelty and attention attached to the statements made by Jairam Ramesh and Prime Minister Modi, Doron and Jeffrey rightly highlight the long-held viewpoint of many Dalit leaders and intellectuals: without the abolition of caste and without restoring dignity to work, imagining a clean India is woefully inadequate and insufficient.
Moon mission launches India's modern-day power status
\"I think it's really important for the way India, the Indian elite, views itself and the way it wants to be viewed by the rest of the world,\" he said. \"It's also a message for Indians of all classes as India prepares for a whole lot of elections,\" he said. \"India is energy hungry and energy poor at the moment and, to make that great modern India that the leaders are aspiring to, energy is going to be one of the key things,\" he said.
FED:India's mobile revolution - without wires
\"The cell phone drew India's people into relations with the record-keeping capitalist state more comprehensively than any previous mechanism or technology,\" say [Robin Jeffrey] and [Assa Doron]. New brides often have to surrender their mobiles, as part of a dismantling of their previous social networks. Recent horrific rapes in urban India get blamed on the taunting video image of the mobile wali [girl] who \"danced, smiled, drank, smoked and wore skimpy clothes - all with a mobile phone in her hand\". The effort to stop the tide is probably futile. Mobile phones give the young their own space and encourage people generally to do new things. \"As a disruptive tool, the cell phone suited democratic India admirably,\" say Jeffrey and Doron.

Young Whittier Republican gets rewarded for activism
The program offers undergraduate scholarships to those who demonstrate exceptional achievements as campus leader-activists against \"political correctness\" and ideological conformity, and for freedom, American values, and constitutional principles,\" according to the Phillips Foundation website. As membership chairman of the College Republicans and the author of the \"Right Said\" column in the UCSB student newspaper, The Daily Nexus, Robin is doing his part to bolster the conservative agenda. \"I'm not surprised at [Jeffrey Robin]'s success,\" Leo Robin said. \"He's always been motivated and an ambitious kid.\"
BUSINESS: RESOURCES: For sale: Scots atomic pride: European bidders are circling British Energy as Westminster relaxes its grip on the Caledonian nuclear giant. Tim Webb reports
In recent months, Westminster has been steadily relaxing its grip on the company. Talking to The Observer in late October, [John Hutton] indicated that the government would not hand out 'special favours' to British Energy. Neither would it try to block foreign company involvement. 'We are not going to intervene to advance particular corporate interests,' he said. 'There will be British company involvement. But there is a market out there. . . so there won't be special favours for any company.' the companies with which British Energy is holding takeover discussions are after its sites, not its existing plants. Lakis Athanasiou from analyst firm Evolution Securities sums up the dilemma facing the government and British Energy's suitors: 'There is no question that the government's major priority is to sell its stake. It will also want to see a mixture of companies involved in [new-build]. But if you are forced to share its sites, why are you buying the company?' Whatever happens, it seems likely that British Energy will soon be neither Scottish-, nor British-, owned. Lord O'[Neill] says this wouldn't really matter - and he would be right. 'Blinding ourselves with the Union Jack is not the best way to do it,' he says. 'Energy is an international business.' But the Caledonian Club may lose a member in the process.
Ignorance as a second language
THE Dutch do it. The Norwegians do it. Even the French and the Canadians do it. The Indians do it a lot. They all learn second (and third) languages. Australians do not. Yet there's broad though passive agreement: Australia's capacity to understand and talk with Asia and the Pacific is deficient, even pathetic. Michael Wesley's new book, The Howard Paradox, argues that Australia's economic and security relations with the countries of Asia have prospered under the Howard Government. What's missing in such discussions, however, is recognition of the small cadre of Asia- knowledgeable diplomats, defence, police, business and non- government organisation people who have guided policy. A second example of where policy is needed is in the renewal of the pool of scholars who teach about the politics, history and societies of Asia and the Pacific. In 1988, 15 of Australia's 19 universities taught courses about India and its South Asian neighbours; today, no more than a half-dozen universities do. Yet state and federal governments rush to embrace India as the next global powerhouse, and Pakistan's North-West Frontier hasn't been so famous since Ronald Colman was a Bengal lancer.
