<#LINE#>Study on Rise of Crime rate with Population growth in Assam (India) with special reference to Illegal Migrants<#LINE#>Saikia@Plabita<#LINE#>9-15<#LINE#>2.ISCA-IRJSS-2014-229.pdf<#LINE#> P.G. Dept. of Law, Gauhati University, Guwahati, Assam- 781014 INDIA<#LINE#>11/9/2014<#LINE#>22/11/2014<#LINE#> The most disturbing development in the 21st Century Assam (India) is the population explosion, which has been more intensified by large scale influx of illegal immigrants to Assam and has created an explosive situation upsetting the demographic balance in Assam as well as aggression of security threat. In the present context, it has been ongoing claim that illegal International immigration taking place especially from the neighbouring country Bangladesh fetch more criminals to Assam and thereby increasing crime rate in the region. Mass media, public opinion, political opinion of many parties and academicians strongly support this claim. The link between the increased International immigration to India and crime rates has been subjected to debates in Indian contemporary society. The present study has been conducted keeping in view to examine the relationship between population growth rate, illegal migration and rise of crime rate; to develop effective policies in response to the ongoing political debates on the link between illegal migrants and rise of crime rate and to provide recommendations to combat with the situation observed in the light of present study. In this present study, there is sincere hope to present a vivid, realistic and analytical discussion of essential facts related to illegal migrants, their aggression and rise of crime rate in all districts of Assam along with average rate of population and density growth - in a lucid manner; to avoid a priori theorizing and ponderous, sterile abstract ideas and to provide a logical and systematic treatment of the present problem. <#LINE#> @ @ Mahapatra D., How illegal immigrants morphed into an invaluable vote-bank.

While this malaise is recognized and acknowledged as a serious and challenging issue in the civilized world around the globe, the problem still remains in most developed countries, with its creeping ill effects.A child ragpicker is deprived of his human rights even as a child. He/she is prone to unhealthy risks, habits and disease. The child thus ends up as a deprived adult, with his/her human development deformed and stunted.

Women are continuously living in an increasingly violent society in which the fear of crime is ever-present. Today, violence against women remains one of the biggest challenges. In the present descriptive study the researcher tries to explore how aware and prepared our females are about their safety. A random sample of 100 females reveals that we failed not only in providing a safe environment for them but also failed miserably in equipping and empowering them for their own protection. <#LINE#> @ @ Laur, Darren and Laur, Beth, Top 10 safety tips for women.

<#LINE#>Determinants of Inter and Intra caste Differences in Utilization of Maternal Health Care Services in India: Evidence from DLHS-3 Survey<#LINE#>Pushpendra@Kumar,Abha@Gupta<#LINE#>27-36<#LINE#>5.ISCA-IRJSS-2014-265.pdf<#LINE#> International Institute for Population Sciences, Deonar, Mumbai, INDIA @  Centre for the Study of Regional Development, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, INDIA<#LINE#>13/10/2014<#LINE#>18/11/2014<#LINE#> This paper examines utilization of maternal health care services within and across social groups among married women in India using data from third round of District Level Household and Facility Survey conducted during 2007-08. Maternal health care utilization is measured through full antenatal care, safe delivery and postnatal care. Besides, selected socioeconomic and demographic factors have been included as predictor variables. Bi-variate, logistic regression and concentration curve have been employed to understand the inter-caste differences, net effect of the predictor variables on selected outcomes and intra-caste differentials respectively. Our findings show significant difference in the utilization of maternal health care services by caste, women’ age at first birth, educational attainment, place of residence, economic status and region. Besides, high inequality is found among poor and non-poor in ‘Other’ Caste followed by Other Backward Classes. This paper concludes that Scheduled Tribe and Scheduled Caste married women bear the multiple burdens of social exclusion, poverty and womanhood in patriarchal Indian society. As a result, their conditions are worse on utilizing maternal health care services which could lead to higher maternal and child mortality rate. <#LINE#> @ @ International Institute for Population Sciences and Macro International, National Family Health Survey (NFHS-3), 2005–06: India: Volume I.

Being an integral of the Himalayas, scholars believe, this region makes up one of the cradles of human civilizations. Due to extensive migrations from the surrounding East and Southeast Asian regions and invasions from Burma and plains of India in the past, Northeast India’s ethnic composition has become a unique one and it turned into a store house of nationalities. Many of the tribes in the region claim to be descendents of the Indo-Mongoloid populace of Mongolia, Tibet, China, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand. Therefore, this region can be argued to be a ‘Mongoloid India’ and culturally it is a part of the Southeast Asia. Northeast India represents an ethnological transition zone between India and neighbouring China, Myanmar, Bhutan and Bangladesh. This paper focuses especially on revealing out the ethnic and cultural affinities that Northeast India shares with the other part of the Himalayas, esp. China. It shows that ethnically and culturally the regions shares proximity with China on various fronts. And it argues that on the basis of such similarities, in present times, India could develop a strong relationship with China involving the Northeast region. This paper is based on secondary sources and for the purpose historical-analytical methodology has been applied. <#LINE#> @ @ Chung Tan and Ray H.P., Trans-Himalayan Multi-National Habitat in Tan Chung (ed.), Indian Horizon (special issue ‘India and China’), 43(1-2) 297-98 (1994) @No $ @ @ Barua B.K., Cultural History of Assam (Early period), Lawyer’s Book Stall, Guwahati, (1)  (1969) @No $ @ @ Lalrimawia, Pre-historic and Historic Migration of the Mizos in the Proceedings of North East India History Association (NEIHA), Second Session, Dibrugarh, 24(1981) @No $ @ @ Hussain Majid, Nagaland: Habitat, Society and Shifting Cultivation, Rima Publishing House, New Delhi, 25 (1988) @No $ @ @ Sen Debasis, Some Aspects of the Indo-Mongoloid Garos in the Proceedings of the NEIHA, First Session, Shillong, 24 (1980) @No $ @ @ Sinha Kamaleswar, Meghalaya: Triumph of the Tribal Genius, Publication Division (Indian School Supply Depot), Shillong, 105 (1970) @No $ @ @ Barua Arun, The Ahom Monarch: Succession to the Throne in the Proceedings of the NEIHA, Ninth Session, Guwahati, 142 (1988) @No $ @ @ Nath R.M., The Background of Assamese Culture, Lawyer’s Book Stall, Guwahati, 15 (1978) @No $ @ @ Ray Haraprasad, Trade Routes from Northeast India and Bangladesh to South and Southwest China: Some Suggestions for an Integrated Economic Development of the Region, Asian Studies, XVIII (1&2) 113 (2000) @No $ @ @ Nag Kalidas, Greater India, Institute of Asian-African Relations, Calcutta, 196-7 (1960) @No $ @ @ Nobby E.G.H., South East Asia, London, 191-99 (1973) @No $ @ @  @No 
<#LINE#>A Closer Look at the Socio-Environment on the Gender Orientation of Martial Arts and Dance as a Leisure Activity<#LINE#>MM@Buot<#LINE#>48-54<#LINE#>8.ISCA-IRJSS-2014-293.pdf<#LINE#>Department of Human Kinetics- College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Los Baños, Laguna, PHILIPPINES<#LINE#>22/3/2014<#LINE#>31/5/2014<#LINE#> A review of the five year enrolment of both martial arts and dance classes was done to establish a trend. The study sought: 1) to determine whether gender gap existed, 2) evaluate students’ motivation in their leisure preferences, and 3) to establish whether gender orientation was salient in students’ choice. A face to face survey was done to currently enrolled students in martial arts and dance classes. In addition, an in-depth interview was also conducted to randomly selected students among the enrolees. With regard to motive in their preferences, resultsshowed that ‘challenge of their body’ and ‘self protection’ ranked first for the male and female enrolees in martial arts respectively. On the other hand, the dance enrolees noted that ‘self expression’ for the female and ‘trying a different field’ by the male students were reasons in their leisure choice. In addition, the interview notes revealed that the idea of femininity and masculinity were almost identical such as compassion and having bubbly characterfor women while strong and competitive for men. The trend in the enrolment of the two leisure areas were examined using the concept of androgyny. Now that students enrol a leisure course because they want to, it would pave the way to better learning which would benefit the physical body and lead to wellness and quality life. <#LINE#> @ @ 1987 Constitution of The Republic of the Philippines-Chan Robles Virtual Law Library, retrieved from http://www.chanrobles.com/article2.htm, November (2013) @No $ @ @ Hardin M. and JD Greer, The influence of gender-role socialization, media use and sports participation on perceptions of gender-appropriate sports, Journal of Sport Behavior,32, 207-226 (2009) @No $ @ @ Clarke M. and C.

It is also seen that for the last few decades, Wide-ranging interests of agriculture, industry and domestic sector along with natural environment have to be fulfilled from this natural resource. Analysis Review of existing groundwater governance instruments is revealing a point that here are a lot of limitations that deals with varied management issues arising due to different hydrogeological scenario in this state. It is found that goal of groundwater governance have been missed from the various policy instruments and contemporary governance instrument implementation are suggesting that economic instruments with attributes of tax, tradable right and subsidy need will helpful for conceiving clear aims and objective for the current situation. This paper has explored the insights on the policy interventions (direct and indirect tools) for groundwater governance in the state of Gujarat and its links with politics. The findings of this paper are illustrating a point that indirect way of governing the groundwater is more viable than the direct methods.  <#LINE#> @ @ Prakash Anjal, The Dark Zone: Groundwater Irrigation, Politics and Social Power in North Gujarat.

Diplomacy reflects the national character of a state based on the state’s distinct diplomatic characteristics and setting according to the political system and current position it has at the world politics. Because diplomacy is one of the major and main channels of conducting international relations among states and other important global actors through representation by assigning a diplomat to the host country and using other means too. It is based on these major concepts that this study analyzes the extent of the post-1990 North Korea’s diplomacy and its reflection on its national character. This study is mainly based on qualitative data and the researcher’s observation to point out the national character of North Korea by focusing on the key policies of the state which affects both its domestic and external aspects of relations and the major policy setting on its foreign relation which reflects its national character in the global politics and international relations of states and other major actors. <#LINE#> @ @ Bodomo, Adams.

However, despite the obvious importance of the charismatic leadership topic, there has not been much attention paid to it. This paper shows how the charismatic leader has the power to convince individuals to sacrifice their personal gain, even their lives, for the common goal and commit themselves to an omniscient god-like leader who knows the best for them and for society. To address this issue, the definitions and characteristics of charismatic leaders are reviewed. Identifying the underlying reasons for the followers’ unique trust in charismatic leaders will lead us to an understanding of how such a bonding relationship between followers and leader can result in the elevation of society or its destruction. <#LINE#> @ @ Wren J.T., The leader's companion: Insights on leadership through the ages, New York: Simon and Schuster.

Argue is that the two partners in this worldwide war against terrorism, have different regional tactical concerns. For the U.S, the war against the terror was destined to restrain the worldwide terrorism led by Al-Qaida and penalize the performers of the attacks of 11th of September 2001, assault on the soil of U.S. In contrast, Pakistan joined this war unwillingly desired to provide the security to its benefits, regional and domestic and by keeping away from the fury of U.S. Another argue is that both the partners, Pakistan and U.S require to perform the re-defining of the on hand stage of relations amongst them and effort jointly for achieving superior objectives, that were defined in the war against the terror. If they failed to do so, it might endanger the armed forces operations to counter the terrorism in edges of Pakistan and Afghanistan. In result, this region along with the world in general would carry on to face the terrorism threat. <#LINE#> @ @ Alan K.

<#LINE#>A Sociological Study on the Emergence and Growth of Disaster Education in India<#LINE#>C.R.@Das<#LINE#>81-85<#LINE#>14.ISCA-IRJSS-2014-250.pdf<#LINE#> Department of Sociology, Silver Jubilee Campus, Pondicherry University, Puducherry, INDIA<#LINE#>30/9/2014<#LINE#>11/11/2014<#LINE#> A disaster is an unpredictable disruption of a smooth functioning of the society that causes the widespread human, material, or environmental losses which exceed the ability of the affected society to cope using only its own resources. Owing to having a better preparation against this situation, the government of India in its tenth five year plan implemented a special course (Disaster Education) in Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). Disaster education refers to the transformation of knowledge and the facilitation of understanding regarding the management of hazards and disasters; specifically, recognition of natural and human-induced hazards and reduction of vulnerability. Although, it has been a decade passed on to this particular education’s incorporation in CBSE, it is found that the majority of the people of India who are living in the village areas remain oblivious about it. Hence, the present study is an attempt to portray the emergence and growth of disaster education and the institutional initiatives taken by the central and local level.  <#LINE#> @ @ Gupta P., Ethnic, Caste and Community in a Disaster prone area of Orissa, http://www.isec.ac.in /WP%20231%20-%20Priya%20Gupta.pdf (2009) @No $ @ @ Yamori K., Frontier of disaster of education, Natural Disaster Science, 24(4), 343-386 (2006) @No $ @ @ Zonia Luz Reyes Flores., Disaster Education, ISDR Informs – Latin America and Caribbean, Issue 13, http://www.eird.org/eng/revista/no_13_2006/index_no13ing.htm  (2006) @No $ @ @   Fuhrmann Sven., Stone, Lee.

<#LINE#>Development as a two-edged sword A Case Study of Norway and Ghana<#LINE#>Aruna@Jayathilaka<#LINE#>86-89<#LINE#>15.ISCA-IRJSS-2014-257.pdf<#LINE#> Department Social and Institutional Development, Sri Lanka Foundation Institute, Sri Lanka<#LINE#>6/9/2014<#LINE#>13/11/2014<#LINE#>Historical evidences suggest that the dual nature of development in bringing both prosperity and destruction to society and the environment. It brings technological gains and new freedom, as well as social, cultural and ecological consequences.Therefore some analysts identify development as a two-edged sword, a creator and destroyer. Even though overexploitation of natural resources leads to environmental degradation, many countries have reached socioeconomic development, through usage of natural resources. Past international events give some indication as to how the future may treat poor countries or those rich in natural resources. By utilizing of two case studies from both the developed and developing contexts, the paper suggest that the demand from the developing countries for the protection of environment is less ethical since developed nations have exploited their natural resources to achieve development.<#LINE#> @ @ Brundtland G.H., Our Common Future, World Commission on Environment and Development, Oxford University Press, Oxford, (1987) @No $ @ @ Prakash M., Role of Knowledge and Information in promoting Sustainable Development, International Research Journal of Social Sciences, 2(2), 52-55, February (2013) @No $ @ @ GRID-Arendal, Dead Planet, Living Plane: Biodiversity and ecosystems restoration for sustainable development.A Rapid Response Assessment, United Nations Environment Program, Norway, (2010) @No $ @ @ Pullaiah C., Assessing the Economic Impact of Water Pollution –  A Case Study of Musi River Hyderabad, India, International Research Journal of Social Sciences, 2(1), 18-23, (2013) @No $ @ @ Repetto R., Balance Sheet: Incorporating Natural Resources in National Income Accounts,  34(12), 12-20, 43-45, World Resources Institute, Washington, (1992) @No $ @ @ Kamble S., Participatory Rural Appraisal: A Tool for Inclusive Growth and Participatory Development A Case Study of Village Marale, MS, INDIA, International Research Journal of Social Sciences, 3(3), 48-50, (2014) @No $ @ @ World Resources, Journalist Guide to World Resources,  www.wri.org/publication/world-resources-2005-wealth-poor-managing-ecosystems-fight-poverty, (2005) @No $ @ @ (Accessed on 09.01.2010) 8.Sachs J.D. and Warner A.M., Natural Resources and Economical Development: The curse of natural resources, Centre for International Development, Harvard University, Cambridge, (2001) @No $ @ @ Jain A. and Runa P., Social Sector and Economic Reforms (With Special Reference to Public Health), International Research Journal of Social Sciences, 3(4), 38-42, (2014) @No $ @ @ Humphreys M.
