Описание:
Everyone eats but how, when and where we eat makes a difference; thus a moonlight picnic is a heck of a lot more fun than a formal dinner with people who mean nothing to you. Or a cherished seasonal food eaten in the long vanished childhood past will acquire a magical aura with the distance of time.
Moonlight Madness and Picnics is about food, memories and sharing food with family and friends without whose sharing food is merely a necessary chore. The recipes are shared in the spirit of offering something precious and highly personal as they are nuggets of history - ingredients, techniques and rituals - that brought them into existence. Whether you like a PB&J or a five course organic dinner, the author hopes that you will find something to enjoy and savor in these stories.
About the Author
Manjari Chatterji was born in India in a highly educated home with loving family and friends who feature in her work. Inspiration came from her sister's writing and many talents. She has spent most of her adult years in the States and taught English for over thirty years. Her husband's work and research pursuits brought the family to Wisconsin where her two daughters grew up and where her two grandsons love to spend their summer holidays. Her son-in-law is an economist, one daughter is a classical musician and the other daughter is a lawyer; thus conversation in the home is lively and entertainment enough.
Like many immigrant families, the Chatterjis have made mistakes and suffered hardship, but also have shared good times and joy. Manjari loves to garden with perennials and hardy Midwestern natives. She tries to apply the philosophy of sustainability in all aspects of life.

Описание: Every immigrant has many interesting stories to tell about coming to America and making it his new home. Bengali-speaking immigrants from the Indian subcontinent are a particularly rich source of fascinating life experiences as they have been coming to the US for over 130 years. While Bengali immigrants, like most other immigrants, had to work hard to succeed in their adopted homeland. some had to struggle to gain a foothold and found success to be elusive. A few had to face discrimination and racism while others found excellent opportunities to flourish as American citizens. This book presents a rich collection of real life stories, told by authors from different walks of life. Some of these life experiences are sweet, some are funny, while others are sad or bittersweet. But each, in its own way, is memorable. And these life experiences are set against the history of Asian immigration in America and the evolving societal attitudes towards non-white immigrants. Readers will find this collection of narratives and essays to be not only fascinating but also revealing of the hopes and aspirations, successes and failures of an important group of immigrants from the Indian subcontinent.

Описание: Majoritarian State traces the ascendance of Hindu nationalism in contemporary India. Led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the BJP administration has established an ethno-religious and populist style of rule since 2014. Its agenda is also pursued beyond the formal branches of government, as the new dispensation portrays conventional social hierarchies as intrinsic to Indian culture while condoning communal and caste- and gender-based violence. The contributors explore how Hindutva ideology has permeated the state apparatus and formal institutions, and how Hindutva activists exert control over civil society via vigilante groups, cultural policing and violence. Groups and regions portrayed as 'enemies' of the Indian state are the losers in a new order promoting the interests of the urban middle class and business elites. As this majoritarian ideology pervades the media and public discourse, it also affects the judiciary, universities and cultural institutions, increasingly captured by Hindu nationalists. Dissent and difference silenced and debate increasingly sidelined as the press is muzzled or intimidated in the courts. Internationally, the BJP government has emphasised hard power and a fast- expanding security state. This collection of essays offers rich empirical analysis and documentation to investigate the causes and consequences of the illiberal turn taken by the world's largest democracy.

Описание: Representations of women in Indian cinema are often warped and twisted. They are subjected to a series of gazes - voyeuristic, investigative and titillating. The controlling look is always with the male. One film-maker who consistently steered clear of this right through his career was Satyajit Ray. None of Ray's women on celluloid can be reduced to a cliche. They defy every imaginable stereotyping. This is particularly true of the women in his adaptations of Tagore's stories. Woman at the Window attempts a completely new way of looking at Ray's films in general, and his films adapted from Tagore in particular, through contextualizing the women by objects they are surrounded by or are fond of, or are habituated to using or learning to use over time. What emerges is a one-of-its-kind book, indeed the first comprehensive study of this kind on the cinema of Ray which offers a greater understanding of the differences, or the absence thereof, between Tagore's original stories and Ray's celluloid readings of these stories, as also fascinating material for gender studies students, researchers, academics and scholars writing on cinema.

Описание: This volume presents studies from experts in twelve industries, providing insights into the future role of innovation and entrepreneurship in driving economic growth across sectors. We live in an era in which innovation and entrepreneurship seem ubiquitous, particularly in regions like Silicon Valley, Boston, and the Research Triangle Park. But many metrics of economic growth, such as productivity growth and business dynamism, have been at best modest in recent years. The resolution of this apparent paradox is dramatic heterogeneity across sectors, with some industries seeing robust innovation and entrepreneurship and others seeing stagnation. By construction, the impact of innovation and entrepreneurship on overall economic performance is the cumulative impact of their effects on individual sectors. Understanding the potential for growth in the aggregate economy depends, therefore, on understanding the sector-by-sector potential for growth. This insight motivates the twelve studies of different sectors that are presented in this volume. Each study identifies specific productivity improvements enabled by innovation and entrepreneurship, for example as a result of new production technologies, increased competition, or new organizational forms. These twelve studies, along with three synthetic chapters, provide new insights on the sectoral patterns and concentration of the contributions of innovation and entrepreneurship to economic growth.

Описание:
Increasingly, business leaders are tasked with developing new products, services, and business models that minimize environmental impact while driving economic growth. It's a tall order--and a call that is only getting louder.
In Can Business Save the Earth?, Michael Lenox and Aaron Chatterji explain just how the private sector can help. Many believe that markets will inevitably demand sustainable practices and force them to emerge. But Lenox and Chatterji see it differently. Based on more than a decade of research and work with companies, they argue that a bright green future is only possible with dramatic innovation across multiple sectors at the same time.
To achieve this, a broader ecosystem of players--including inventors, executives, customers, investors, activists, and governments--all must play a role. The book outlines how and the extent to which each group can serve as a driver of green growth. Then, Lenox and Chatterji identify where economic incentives currently exist, or could exist with institutional change, and ultimately address the larger question of how far well-coordinated efforts can take us in addressing the current environmental crisis.
