Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Raju, R Saraswathi, G Baidya, K N Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2004-11-12 Description An account of the resource Tribes or adivasis are considered to be the parasites of the forests, thinking that they cannot exist without depending on the forest resource. But the trend has changed after the relocation of the tribes from forest to the periphery of the forest areas. Their way of living, language, food habits, occupation, leisure and entertainment, socio-cultural setup everything has changed drastically. The study exposes both in park and outside the park tribal settlements, to show the differences in their living conditions, socio-economic activities, leisure activities among men and women of these hadis. The study mainly focuses on the Jenu Kuruba tribe who is more in number in and around the National Park than the other tribes, like the Betta Kuruba and Yerava. Under India Eco-development Project the inpark 54 hadi tribes (1568 families), are being relocated (250 families already relocated), gradually. This has brought in major impact on the tribes who are inside the park. The inpark hadi tribes are also exposed to other places like Coorg, as wage earners in coffee estates. Thus the exposure to other places for livelihood purpose and the rehabilitation programmes has changed the traditional tribes to modernisation. Key words:  Nagarahole National Park, Hadi, Tribes, Leisure, Jenu Kuruba, Ashram School, and Social aspect.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kumaramkandath, Rajeev Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2016-04-01 Description An account of the resource Artha–the journal exclusively dedicated to Social Sciences and Humanities from Christ University, Bengaluru–has entered into its 15th year of life in 2016. It is indeed a long period considering the delicacy of the publishing industry in social science academia. This intervening period has also been quite turbulent and volatile, to say the least, for the paradigmatic changes it has seen in the domains of global politics and social thinking. There has been a rupture in the social existence of human beings as new technologies and ideas invade and occupy our surroundings on rampant scales. While economic reforms and neoliberal policies of states have a central role in generating these changes their impacts on the social, cultural, and political surroundings have been massive and clearly outside the immediate domains of economics. Mapping these social changes and structural realities then become a major task where other social science disciplines like Sociology, Anthropology, and Cultural Studies have a major stake. This is the larger background against which the current edition of AJSS is launched. As such it involves writings from the ‘twin disciplines’ of Sociology and Social Work and covers a wide range of issues. Having articles from these disciplinary platforms in the same space has its own merits and risks. Interestingly, when one of the editors of this volume had a discussion with a renowned professor, who, also happens to be the editor’s teacher, regarding the issue, the professor did not conceal his unhappiness over universities and higher educational bodies still treating these disciplines as two sides of the same coin. “Their differences are not sufficiently respected” was what he had to say. The statement is indeed problematic in an era of interdisciplinarity.  Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource application/pdf Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context https://journals.christuniversity.in/index.php/artha/article/view/777 10.12724/ajss.37.0 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Centre for Publications, CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Bangalore Relation A related resource https://journals.christuniversity.in/index.php/artha/article/view/777/1390 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Copyright (c) 2016 Artha - Journal of Social Sciences http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Artha Journal of Social Sciences; Vol. 15 No. 2 (2016): Artha Journal of Social Sciences; v-xii 0000-0000 0975-329X Subject The topic of the resource Editorial Title A name given to the resource Editorial: Sociology and Social Work: Mapping Differences and Similarities Type The nature or genre of the resource info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Non-refereed Editorial Text Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Rassendren, Etienne Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2005-01-01 Description An account of the resource This paper attempts to identify and explore the varied ideological implications of English studies by constructing a contextual genealogy of the field as it travels from its inception in the colonial period to its contemporary context. It attempts to respond to questions concerning reading practices, pedagogic agencies, knowledge, production, disciplinary formations and identity politics. It is neither theoretically comprehensive nor chronologically systematic and does not discuss the rise of feminisms and translation studies as these areas demand fuller analysis than this space can afford. It prefers not to marginalize these issues with tokenist responses. The principal interest of this paper is to think through the problematic cultural-politics of the field so as to place it in perspective.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Sabapathy, Tara Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2005-06-01 Description An account of the resource Teachers are the saviours of a nation. They dispel darkness and bring light into everyone's life; they remove ignorance and spread knowledge. They steer the nation towards success and prosperity. Their role in national development is unquestionable. A nation therefore requires teachers to be totally committed and dedicated to their profession. Occupational commitment of teachers is a crucial input for school efficiency and they are held responsible for the academic performance of their students. Colaralli and Bishop (1990) opine that occupational commitment might be an important precursor of exemplary work performance. Wallace (1995) concluded that employees who are strongly committed to their occupation might be more likely to set a higher standard of performance quality and be more willing to work hard to achieve this standard than those with weak commitment. This study examines the relationship between occupational commitment of IX standard teachers and their work ethics, job involvement and perceived organizational support. The study further focuses on whether significant differences in the independent variables would account for significant differences in the dependent variable occupational commitment of teachers. The study was conducted on a sample of 120 IX standard teachers giving due representation to gender and type of school management. Four tools were administered of which three were adapted and standardized by the investigator. The data was analysed using correlation and t-test. The results revealed that there was a highly significant and positive correlation between occupational commitment and work ethics, occupational commitment and job involvement and occupational commitment and perceived organizational support. The t-test analysis revealed that teachers who had higher levels of work ethics, job involvement and perceived organizational support had higher levels of occupational commitment. The study conclusively reveals that teachers require to possess a high level of work ethics and job involvement to be committed. The study further pinpoints that perceived organizational support is vital for increasing occupational commitment of teachers. Educational organizations therefore need to value the contribution of teachers and care about their well-being. The teaching profession is a humane one and it requires its teachers to be treated with humaneness. Basic material rewards such as pay and promotion and social rewards such as approval and recognition would go a long way in enhancing the occupational commitment of teachers.
