Gender, Class And Nation In The Foothills Of The Himalayas: Student Aspirations And The Construction Of The New Middle Class, Denise Scott

Himalayan Policy Research Conference

As in other places, in India dominant beliefs and ideals largely reflect the beliefs and experiences of the middle class. As such, social constructions like “respectable femininity and masculinity,” find their roots in professional, middle class perspectives and experiences. Likewise, these gender constructions help define and reinforce class. In the face of rapid globalization and increased educational opportunities for both women and men in India, it is important to consider students as actors in the construction of the new middle class as it interacts with definitions of respectable, or ideal, femininity and masculinity. Researchers have so far focused on those …

Functional And Financial Devolution To Urban Local Bodies And Their Performance In India, Brijesh Kumar Bajpai

Himalayan Policy Research Conference

India has headed towards a significant political revolution, almost simultaneously with economic reforms, in the early nineties of the twentieth century. Relative rise of market vis-à- vis state and relative importance of local government vis-à-vis central and state governments may be viewed as extension of the same logic. The import of perpetual existence, ensured with passage of 73rd and 74th Constitution Amendment Acts, 1992 is yet to be fully realized in terms of complete devolution of functional and financial powers to the elected local bodies across the states in India. The present paper addresses the issues related to the functional …

Households In Times Of War: Adaptation Strategies During The Nepal Civil War, François Libois

Himalayan Policy Research Conference

This paper analyses short and medium term consequences of the Nepalese civil war on rural households’ livelihood and on the inter-group distribution of income. Conclusions rely on two rich datasets: the Nepal Living Standards Survey collected before, during and after the war, and the dataset on the number of killings by month and village during the eleven years of the conflict. Using the survey timing as a quasi-natural experiment, results indicate that in the short-run all households lose, but high castes by a larger extent. Short-term coping strategies determine medium term diverging recovery paths. Non-high castes allocate more labor in …

Brief For Professors, Czyzewski V. Jevic Holding Corp. As Amicus Curiae, Laura Spitz

Faculty Scholarship

We urge that the decision of the Circuit Court should be affirmed because Petitioners were not injured or prejudiced by the settlement--they are not worse off than if the settlement had been rejected. Aside from that, the remaining issue is whether the bankruptcy court had discretion to approve the instant settlement even though it did not strictly follow the priority rule. We believe that the courts correctly decided not to apply the absolute priority rule under the circumstances of this case. We urge that the Rule need not be followed by a bankruptcy court in approving a settlement. Alternatively, if …

A Case Study Of Individual And Organizational Stakeholder Perspectives On State Factors Impacting Access To Rural Health Care Services In Idaho, Molly Vaughan Prengaman

Nursing ETDs

The purpose of this case study was to describe individual and organizational perspectives on the state factors and political context impacting access to rural health care services in Idaho. Approximately 50 million Americans, roughly 20% of the United States population, live in rural areas (U.S. Census Bureau, 2012). For over 100 years, U.S. rural residents have experienced health disparities and health care access barriers (De Alessi & Pam, 2011). Rural residents evidence greater health risks, fewer health care providers, poorer health outcomes, and greater mortality than most urban residents (Jones, Parker, Ahearn, Mishra, & Variyam, 2009). Since many rural health …

A New Articulation Test Applied To A Selected Group Of Children Living In The State Of New Mexico, Robert Edwin Burkhalter

Speech and Hearing Sciences ETDs

Bilingualism is much more prevalent in the United States than is commonly believed. Goodykoontz points out that "one child in every five, aged fourteen years or under, is of foreign born or mixed parentage." Since our country is still a melting pot of the world where large numbers of citizens converse in other tongues and where many children still enter our schools without speaking a word of English, the problem of bilingualism and foreign dialect will frequently be encountered by the school teacher.
