Janusauskas M: Queer Fashion and
Masculinities in India

Queer Fashion and Masculinities in India

India Studies in Business and Economics

This book provides a comprehensive perspective by taking an interdisciplinary approach to issues of attaining SDGs in India. It starts with policy priorities and opportunities for interlinking of different SDGs with sustainable industrial transformation. Subsequently, various chapters present a blend of analytical methods that are primarily rooted in economics and yet have an inter-disciplinary approach, highlighting pathways towards achieving SDGs, especially SDG1, SDG2, SDG3, SDG4, SDG10, SDG11, SDG13, and SDG15. Gender equality and empowerment of women is a common cross-cutting issue across all three themes towards achieving SDG targets. Chapters are divided into three themes climate change, health and nutrition, and poverty and inequality, with a special chapter devoted to each theme providing the overall picture. The book’s content is a great resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and development practitioners studying these SDGs related to India as the country moves forward on its growth path.

SDGs Amidst Multiple Global Shocks

The Raag of Rta

As the Sun sets on the age of virtue, the shadows gather for a final dance. The Mathuran Republic and Magadhan Empire are locked in mortal struggle, but they are not the only pieces on the board. Over the Eastern horizon, storm clouds gather. The Rakshasan Tree Cities have opened their borders for the first time in centuries, gathering kings, clerics, matriarchs and merchant lords to a Conclave of Peace... all the better to carve up the future without having to worry about either Empire or Republic. After all, a season of peace is the time to plant anew the seeds of war. But in this world drenched in oil, three women emerge, each the spark that might light the fire. A Pirate Queen discovers the only gold around is in the bars of her cage. A Temple Courtesan's heart dances for the lowborn archer she was tasked to destroy. A Librarian Princess steals from deathless witches and legendary thieves to save the world from an ancient plague. As smouldering conflicts reignite, intimate betrayals unwind and ancient evils awake, our cast of spoilt heroes and lovesick princes, immortal assassins and their apprentices, deaf swordswomen and exiled snakelings will find no sun to light their path. For the Son of Darkness rises, boiling over with a wrath that all the oracles in the world cannot appease. Seeing the future is one thing, changing it is quite another. Unless it is through a heist.

Dance of Shadows

'Buckle your trousers, fasten your seatbelts, here comes Kate Lister. Her curious history of sex is a wild ride, made all the more enjoyable by a wonderfully irreverent approach . . . I've never had so much fun learning stuff' The Times 'Had Victoria Wood decided to write a scholarly book about sex, it would be like this. Lister has a saucy wit . . . I laughed out loud.' Daily Mail 'Lister romps her way through masturbation, menstruation and prostitution, the invention of condoms, the use of vibrators to cure hysteria and much more . . . Glorious' Evening Standard This is not a comprehensive study of every sexual quirk, kink and ritual across all cultures throughout time, as that would entail writing an encyclopaedia. Rather, this is a drop in the ocean, a paddle in the shallow end of sex history, but I hope you will get pleasantly wet nonetheless. The act of sex has not changed since people first worked out what went where, but the ways in which society dictates how sex is culturally understood and performed have varied significantly through the ages. Humans are the only creatures that stigmatise particular sexual practices, and sex remains a deeply divisive issue around the world. Attitudes will change and grow - hopefully for the better - but sex will never be free of stigma or shame unless we acknowledge where it has come from.Based on the popular research project Whores of Yore, and written with her distinctive humour and wit, A Curious History of Sex draws upon Dr Kate Lister's extensive knowledge of sex history. From medieval impotence tests to twentieth-century testicle thefts, from the erotic frescoes of Pompeii, to modern-day sex doll brothels, Kate unashamedly roots around in the pants of history, debunking myths, challenging stereotypes and generally getting her hands dirty. This fascinating book is peppered with surprising and informative historical slang, and illustrated with eye-opening, toe-curling and meticulously sourced images from the past. You will laugh, you will wince and you will wonder just how much has actually changed.

A Curious History of Sex

Routledge Contemporary Southeast Asia Series

This book examines the persistence of blasphemy provisions, their increasing use in post-authoritarian Indonesia and the extent to which religion has been instrumentalised for political ends justified by law.Based on empirical research and an analysis of more than a hundred court decisions that connects evidence to theoretical discussions, this book traces the evolution and dynamics of capitalism in relation to the nature of legal order and the operation of laws, particularly those related to religion. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the author offers a rich analysis of the competing discourses on blasphemy in Indonesia. The work bridges the literatures of law and other social sciences. Providing an updated analysis of Indonesian blasphemy laws, this book also aims to shed light on the dynamics of legal order that affect how and why such laws exist. Rather than merely documenting regulations on and cases of blasphemy, the study aims to further understand the operation of law as a reflection of power relations. Specifically, the book reveals that the persistence of blasphemy laws has more to do with the illiberal nature of Indonesia's legal order, which renders laws that privilege religious orthodoxy a practical instrument for religious mobilisation for political purposes, than with the cultural distinctiveness of Indonesian society or the lack of modern bureaucratic and legal institutions supporting secularisation, as many scholars have argued.Offering original contribution to scholarship on blasphemy, the politicisation of religion and illiberalism in democracies, this book will be of interest to academics in the field of Asian politics, law and Southeast Asia studies.

Conceived as a solution to the structural inefficiencies of India's fragmented indirect tax system, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) marked a decisive shift towards a unified, destination-based tax regime. However, its journey--from conception to implementation--has been neither linear nor straightforward, involving years of complex negotiations, institutional innovation, and the careful balancing of fiscal powers between the Union and state governments. The Indian GST offers a comprehensive account of the evolution and performance of the GST in India, serving both as an institutional chronicle and a policy blueprint. Drawing on Dwivedi's extensive first-hand experience, it offers a rare insider's view of the institutional dynamics, political negotiations, and administrative challenges underlying the design and implementation of India's GST. The book examines the Indian GST model within a comparative federal framework, drawing on the experiences of countries such as Canada, Australia, and Brazil. It provides a detailed evaluation of the performance of the GST and empirically analyses its impact on private investment in India. The Indian GST thus paves the way for the next phase of GST reforms, highlighting how crucial these reforms are to realizing the full potential of the GST and maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of India's tax system.

Routledge Frontiers of Political Economy

This book develops an evolutionary economics approach to welfare state dynamics. Welfare states are complex settings, including social insurance, social assistance, and universal provisions. Their main aim is to shelter household incomes from instability and redistribute incomes. This book analyses welfare states in terms of how they pool business cycle uncertainty between the state (social security), firms, and households. The evolutionary and institutional analysis of welfare states, focusing, in particular, on labor market segmentation and national¿level policy design, is applied to two particular cases: a Southern European country (Portugal) and a deep¿rooted European welfare state (France). These two countries have introduced similar social protection reforms and experienced similar crises, yet the two welfare states are very different. This book explores and explains why that should be the case. It will be of interest to researchers and students of institutional evolutionary economics, welfare states, and European politics.

Routledge Studies in the History of Marketing

This book addresses the need to understand marketing practices in the context of the rich and varied history of India. Such an understanding will not only enrich marketing as a discipline, but also provide marketers and academics with valuable insights into the cultures and behaviors of Indian consumers. By analysing historical writings on business in India over 2000 years, and providing a coherent narrative of the marketing practices during these periods, it critically engages with the larger socio-economic structures which influenced, and were influenced by these practices. All scholars of marketing history will find this a fascinating and unique assessment of a highly significant market.

Elise Ann Allen, correspondent in Rome for Crux, the prestigious website specialising in Vatican news, outlines a detailed and intimate profile of the new pope. From his childhood in Chicago and his early vocation as an Augustinian to his years as a missionary in Peru and his key role in the Vatican as head of the bishops, Allen reveals the experiences that forged his character and established him as a spiritual leader and citizen of the world.
