“Education is the basic tool for the development of consciousness and the reconstitution of society” -Mahatma Gandhi. In Kerala formal and higher education started much earlier than rest of the Indian states. Educational initiatives made the state the most literate one and placed it as well ahead in gender and spatial equity. During the initial phase of educational expansion, education got its prominence for its intrinsic worthiness and played the role of enlightenment and empowerment. Kerala has occupied a prominent place on the educational map of the country from its ancient time. Though there is no clear picture of the educational system that prevailed in the early centuries of the Christian Era, the Tamil works of the Sangam age enable us to get interesting glimpses of the educational scene in Tamilakam including the present Kerala[i]. The standards of literacy and education seem to have been high. The universal education was the main feature of sangam period.     196-201 Evolution and Growth of Cyber Crimes: An Analys on the Kerala Scenario S S KARTHIK KUMAR Crime is a common word that we always hereof in this era of globalization.

Tax is one of the chief means for acquiring revenue and wealth. In the modern sense, tax means an amount of money imposed by a government on its citizens to run a state or government. But  the  system  of  taxation in  the  Native  States  of  Travancore had an unequal character or discriminatory character and  which was bound  up with  the  caste system.  In the case of Travancore and its society, the so called caste system brings artificial boundaries in the society.[i] 213-221 Second World War and Its Repercussions: Impetus on Poverty in Travancore SAFEED R In the first half of the twentieth century the world witnessed two deadliest wars and it directly or indirectly affected the countries all over the world. The First World War from 1914-1918 and the Second World War from 1939-1945 shooked the base of the socio-economic and political structure of the entire world. When compared to the Second World War, the First World War confined only within the boundaries of Europe and has a minimal effect on the other parts of the world. The Second World War was most destructive in nature and it changed the existing socio-economic and political setup of the world countries. 222-

The paper focuses on the initial stage of the formation of the Commonwealth of Australia, and the process of its establishing as an independent State. The international political context for the development of the country, from the period of creation of the Federation to the beginning of the Second World War, is primarily viewed. The Commonwealth’s international position, its place and role in the regional and global geopolitical processes of the early XX century, in particular in the context of its relations with Great Britain, are analyzed. The features of the transformation of British colonial policies on the eve of the First World War are examined. The specifics of the UK system of relations with Australia, as well as other dominions, are being examined. The features of status of the dominions in the British Empire system are shown. The role of the dominions and, in particular, the Commonwealth of Australia in the preparatory process for the First World War, as well as the peculiarities of its participation in hostilities, is analyzed.

An account of Wyndham Lewis’s career as a portrait painter opens this chapter, with a focus on the many self-portraits he painted during his life. The theme of the difference between visual and literary self-portraiture is explored, and the role of satire in portraiture. The chapter examines Lewis’s first autobiography Blasting and Bombardiering (1937), and his depiction of the period leading up to and through the First World War. It also analyzes Lewis’s self-imposed exile during the Second World War during his emigration to America and Canada with his wife Anne, portrayed in Self Condemned (1954), and the subsequent writing of Rude Assignment (1950) after Lewis’s return to England. Lewis’s word portraits of Ford and Stein in his autobiographies are discussed, as are the omissions in these autobiographies.

The Doha Round of multilateral negotiations is at a stalemate. The aid situation is changing as many countries are graduating from the soft loan arm of the World Bank Group. Developing countries built up their foreign exchange reserves to avoid borrowing from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), leading the IMF to retrench. This article explores the evolution of multilateralism from, essentially, its political roots to the economic area after the First World War (FWW), though in a limited way, and more fully after the Second World War (SWW). We then discuss how the workings of these economic multilateral institutions resulted in the current situation, where they risk becoming irrelevant. Finally, the article discusses the possible role of theG20 in the revival of multilateralism and, in particular, the role that developing countries might play in the revival.

The article discusses a neglected aspect in the history of the Second World War and the role of Armenians and their motivation to fight against the Nazi Germany. The author suggests that the memory of the Genocide against the Armenians perpetratrated by Turkey in the First World War with connivence from Germany played an important role in the memory of Soviet Armenians enrolled in the Red Army. This is one of the explanations why the present day Republic of Armenia still maintains – from different reasons – the name The Great Patriotic War instead of Second World War, like Russia.

The present contribution is divided into two parts: the first is the transformations of the world of labour between the two wars, tracing the context in which totalitarian impulses of a fascist nature were affirmed; the second, closely connected to the first, tries to outline the methods and contents with which counter-democracy tried to gain consensus, even in the world of labour. We will try to retrace, in broad terms, some trajectories of change induced by the First World War, their evolution in the inter-war period, the influence that these changes exerted on the Second World War and beyond, with some reference to the post-war period.

Like many other parts of the world, in the last two hundred years or so the Middle East has gone through a process of de-industrialization followed by reindustrialization.* The decline in handicrafts continued until well after the First World War. But by then another development was under way: the growth of a modern factory industry that started around the 1890s, gathered increasing momentum in the 1920s and 1930s, and since the Second World War has proceeded at a very rapid pace.

Over de bestraffing op tuchtrechtelijk vlak van collaboratie met de vijand tijdens WOI en WOII door de tuchtcolleges van een vrij beroep zoals de orde van advocaten er een is, bestaan bijna geen publicaties. In 2012 werd door de orde van advocaten in Antwerpen openheid van zaken gegeven voor de tuchtvervolgingen en veroordelingen die het gevolg waren van feiten gepleegd tijdens WOII. Aan de hand van de verslagboeken van de raad van de orde, zetelend als tuchtraad, konden ondertussen de procedures die na WOI tegen Antwerpse advocaten werden ingespannen voor de eerste maal grondig bestudeerd worden. Dat leverde verrassende resultaten op, niet alleen omdat aangetoond kon worden dat er een storende ongelijkheid in de bestraffing was voor zover de advocaat tijdens WOI in het zgn. Belgische kamp dan wel in het Vlaamse kamp gestaan had. Ook omdat vastgesteld kon worden dat de tuchtraad van advocaten, van dewelke toch aangenomen zou moeten worden dat hij ook toen de behoeder zou moeten geweest zijn van grondwettelijke vrijheden en correct procesverloop met respect voor de rechten van verdediging, in het eerste gerechtelijke jaar na 11 november 1918 daarmee soms zeer bediscussieerbaar omging.________The punishment of Activism during the First World War by the disciplinary board of the Antwerp Bar (1918-1921)There are almost no publications about the punishment of collaboration with the enemy during the World Wars by the disciplinary boards of liberal professions, such as bar associations. In 2012, the Antwerp Bar opened up the records concerning disciplinary proceedings and sentences that resulted from acts committed during the Second World War. On the basis of the records of the council of the Bar, sitting as a disciplinary board, the actions that were directed against Antwerp lawyers after the First World War could be studied in-depth for the first time. This produced surprising results. In part, this is because there was a demonstrable, disturbing inequality in punishment depending on whether the lawyer had stood in the so-called ‘Belgian camp’ or in the ‘Flemish camp’. In addition, we can conclude that the disciplinary board of the Bar, which we must remember was at the time also supposed to uphold constitutional freedoms and proper legal process regarding the rights of the accused, often treated these in a very debatable fashion in the first judicial year following 11 November 1918.

There is by now a fairly ample historiography on the role of women in fascist Italy. It is, however, still somewhat uneven. This article looks at some of these topics, such as the demographic campaign, the mobilization of women into the Fascist Party, and women's experience during the Second World War. The recent wave of interest in some of the more neglected topics is very positive, since a due attention to gender can shed much light on the fascist experience in Italy. The fascist regime paid a good deal of attention to gender and the role of women in its ideology, propaganda, and legislation. The roots of much of this can be traced to the Italian experience in the First World War. The fascists' pervasive emphasis on militaristic values owed a great deal to wounded masculine (as well as national) pride after the rout of the Italian troops at Caporetto.
