Exploring the Poverty Question
By Utsa Patnaik

The author argues that the claim by individual governments and by the World Bank that Asia has seen a large reduction in poverty overthe last three decades, is a spurious claim. It is the result of a logical mistake; while the original definition of poverty was on the basis of satisfaction or otherwise of specified nutrition norms, later without any discussion this definition was changed and delinked from nutrition, thereby committing the fallacy of equivocation. In practice, for many decades the poor have been improperly counted as those below a steadily declining standard of food consumption. Using data for fifty years fromIndia’s National Sample Survey, she shows that when we apply a constant nutrition standard over time, poverty is seen to have worsened considerably, in particular over the period of neoliberal reforms.

Utsa Patnaik taught economics at the Centre for Economic Studies and Planning, Jawaharlal Nehru University, from 1973 to 2010.

The Ghazal Eros: Lyrica Queerness in History
By Shad Naved

The Ghazal Eros studies the movement of language and society in the old ghazal, i.e. the poetry of eros in Urdu, Persian and Arabic. It revisits scenes from the millennium-long literary history of the ghazal as an expression of masculine passion (ishq) for the masculine beloved which the author calls ‘lyric queerness’. The neglect of this movement of lyric queerness in not only mainstream cultural history but also LGBTQ history, the book argues, screens from us a lyric corpus that was historically aware, linguistically evolving and suspicious of mystical interpretation.

About the author: Shad Naved teaches literature and translation at Dr B.R. Ambedkar University, Delhi (AUD). His recent writings include articles on Georg Lukács, Pablo Neruda, and the translations of García Márquez in Indian languages.

Political Choices: Essays in State, Resistance and Intellectuals
By Nirmalangshu Mukherji

Link to the book page in bio!

These essays are among the political pieces written since the catastrophic events of 9/11. Massive violence against humanity is a recurrent theme in modern, industrialized societies. But the same societies also gave rise to impressive forms of popular resistance. In the absence of mass movements, forms of terror have taken over the role of resistance. What options for resistance are now available to arrest what otherwise looks like an inevitable course to doom? These essays are a fragile and essentially personal effort to come to grips with this overwhelming question.

About the author: Nirmalangshu Mukherji is a former professor of Philosophy, University of Delhi. Apart from academic work, Mukherji has also been writing on peace, justice and human rights.

The lectures at Ambedkar University Delhi (AUD) brought together in this volume dwell on some of the most telling concerns that our age confronts. While several of the lectures take off from some of B.R. Ambedkar’s writings and interventions, others meet Ambedkar in shared concerns by remaining within the frame of their distinct academic specialisation or professional pursuits. The result is a deep conversation where scholarship and social concerns converge, begetting a complex tapestry of their own. The introduction to the volume, which highlights the distinctiveness of Ambedkar as a scholar and the scholarship that goes in his name, acts as a connecting thread to the themes and concerns mounted in these lectures.
