Migrations, Identities and Democratic Practices in India

This book explores contesting identities, international politics, migration and democratic practices in the context of globalizing India. Drawing on extensive ethnographic research, it looks at one of the oldest migratory routes across a volatile region in eastern India which is fraught with violent claims of separate statehood. The book offers an account of how the ‘North Bengal’ region has acted as a gateway to migrant populations over time and points to why it must be understood as a shifting and liminal space through a study of Bodoland, Gorkhaland, Kamatapuri, Siliguri and the Greater Cooch Behar movements. It shows the region’s politics of identity or quest for homeland not as a means of compensating for the lack or absence of identity, but as an everyday practice of living that very absence, across borders and boundaries, without arriving at any definitive and stable identity, along with impacts and manifestations in democratic political processes. A major intervention in modern political theory – shedding new light on concepts such as home and homeland, space and self, sovereignty, nation-state, freedom and democracy – this book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of political science, modern South Asian history, sociology and social anthropology, and migration and diaspora studies.

UNCOVERING CORRUPT SCIENCE

Modern science or what I call Newtonian science is altogether wrong. Nothing can stand still in the Universe and remain a part of the Universe. The Universe is the movement thereof. Everything in the Universe has to move should it wish to be ... and everything in the Universe moves ... and in circles but everything moves. There is no mass but only movement and movement is gravity and gravity is time forming space. But how does this system work and how does this system form an entire Universe as big as the one we have. Read this and see how the Universe is truly stitched together by nature and not by Newton's fantasy. It works exactly as Kepler said it does in the tables Kepler left us to study. Space by three forms a circle by two that moves straight by one and that forms the six sided Universe we enjoy as a reality...
