This article draws on qualitative research to examine Mohajir women’s construction of and understanding of their ethnopolitical Mohajir identity in the port city of Karachi, Pakistan, The Mohajir identity is constructed around a shared language amongst individuals with historically diverse backgrounds, and has proven to be a potent yet divisive ethnopolitical identity. The article argues that in order to assuage the grievances of the Mohajirs, sociopolitical steps such as elimination of the job quota system must be taken by the government in order for sustainable peace to be achieved.

The aim of this article is to explain about a position of music on the ideology debate in Indonesia of Soekarnoian era. The defined ideology debate that is between a concept of Soekarno about Nasakom (an acronym of Nasionalisme, Agama, Komunis or Nationalism, Religion, Communist) and a market ideology (entertainment). Each of these ideologies affects a reality of music at that time, both its creation and its presentation. Based on it, a collected data is derived from various resources, such as observations, interviews, documents, and audio and video recordings. The data is analyzed using Davis’s concept of art and ideology and Navits’s concept of art and identity. There are three founded conclusions, namely, firstly, Indonesia in Soekarnoian era was being held to seek the identity by inventorying a local music in Indonesia and introducing to the international arena; secondly, Soekarno seceded from the culture of Nekolim by categorizing a good and bad music for Indonesian; and thirdly, it was occurred the ideology debate between the musicians and the government in the Indonesian cultural politics of Soekarnoian era. This debate had put the music in an un-neutral field in fact as a traumatic language that had rose from a personal will of creator.  Tujuan artikel ini adalah untuk menjelaskan tentang posisi musik pada perdebatan ideologi di Indonesia era Soekarno. Debat ideologi yang maksud yaitu antara konsep Soekarno tentang Nasakom (akronim Nasionalisme, Agama, Komunis atau Nasionalisme, Agama, Komunis) dan ideologi pasar (hiburan). Masing-masing ideologi ini mempengaruhi realitas musik pada waktu itu, baik kreasi maupun presentasinya. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, data tulisan ini berasal dari berbagai sumber daya, seperti observasi, wawancara, dokumen, dan rekaman audio dan video. Data tersebut dianalisis menggunakan konsep seni dan ideologi Davis dan konsep seni dan identitas Navits. Ada tiga kesimpulan yang dibuat, yaitu, pertama, Indonesia di era Soekarno dilakukan untuk mencari identitas dengan menginventarisasi musik lokal di Indonesia dan memperkenalkan ke arena internasional; kedua, Soekarno melepaskan diri dari budaya Nekolim dengan mengkategorikan musik yang baik dan yang buruk untuk Indonesia; dan ketiga, terjadi perdebatan ideologi antara musisi dan pemerintah dalam politik kebudayaan Indonesia era Soekarno. Perdebatan ini telah menempatkan musik sebagai bidang yang tidak netral dan pada kenyataannya sebagai bahasa traumatik yang muncul dari keinginan personal pencipta.

This article conceptualises home cook Jack Monroe as an ‘austerity celebrity’, a mediated figure who forged her public persona directly through articulations with austerity culture. Drawing on an intertextual analysis of her blogs, cookbooks, interviews, speeches and representations across the media, I argue that Monroe demonstrates the paradox of anti-austerity celebrity in becoming economically successful as the face of modern poverty. Monroe’s navigation of a dual identity of celebrity and activist manifests in her critique of the government, her middle-class precarity, her status as a mother and her queer identity which requires consistent ‘authenticity labour’. In Monroe’s case, this labour is visible as a constant and politicised struggle over the terms of her ‘authenticity’. While unable to manage her more complex middle-class, queer identity, which confronts the established grounds of ‘feckless mothers’, the UK tabloid media attempts to frame Monroe’s success as a rags-to-riches style narrative reinforcing hegemonic rhetorics of resilience and creativity as routes to overcoming adversity. This analysis of the struggles at work in Monroe’s mediated presence demonstrates how the moral imperatives for women to offer to resourcefully manage the ‘challenges’ of austerity cuts, arguably draws attention away from austerity as structurally and politically motivated.

Abstract This paper explores the cultural politics of lineage landscapes in contemporary rural China. Drawing on a combined governmentality/translation approach and ethnographic fieldwork in rural Wenzhou, it examines how the state governs the production of lineage landscapes and how local lineages translate governmental technologies in complex ways. Empirical evidence reveals that the government develops diversified rationalities and modes of governance to direct the (re)construction of lineage landscapes. It is also found that local lineages are skilled at appropriating state discourses and practices as well as enrolling other (non-)human actors, thereby legitimizing their landscape projects of ancestral tombs and memorials. On the ground, they often displace state objectives with the production of their preferred landscape (for example, “chair” tombs). Respectful of ancestors, state agents sometimes turn a blind eye to local displacement; however, while encountering challenges from the higher-level government, they intensify regulation, but lineages still retain the capacity to negotiate with them. With sensitivity to the entanglement of diversified actors and their dynamic interactions, this paper underlines the multiplicity and contingency of state governance and societal responses. It also foregrounds the cultural politics of lineage landscapes as a process of translating governmental technologies characterized by continuous mobilization, displacement and negotiation in a heterogeneous network.

The origins of the Slovak National Library lie in the programme for national awakening elaborated by Enlightenment figures, such as Anton Bernolák, at the turn of the eighteenth to the nineteenth century. The article describes the private libraries that eventually, under the care of the cultural institution Matica slovenská, came to form the basis of the national library's collections. The national library itself, although it existed in a non-governmental form from 1941 to 1953 and its functions were then subsumed within Matica slovenská, finally was established as an autonomous state institution in 2000. The library has assumed a leadership role in relation to Slovakia's library network and has prepared for the Government the Strategy for Development of Slovak Librarianship for 2007–13. Having obtained extensive extra-budgetary funding it is driving a number of projects aimed at building and supporting the Information Society in Slovakia.

AbstractThe Government of India claims to promote plural medical traditions, currently institutionalized under the acronym AYUSH (Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy). Yet, one medical system—Ayurveda—receives most social and ideological support: Ayurveda is routinely constructed as the only truly Indian, homegrown, and national medicine, while the national belonging of other AYUSH traditions is challenged. This essay explores discourses surrounding the promotion of AYUSH and the privileged position of Ayurveda, situating them within two competing nationalist ideologies: the ideology of inclusive secularism anchored in the principle of India’s cultural diversity and the ideology of Hindu nationalism, which promotes a distinctive image of India as a country with a culturally monolithic foundation. By doing so, I show how a nation can be differently imagined through one medical tradition or through medical plurality. Furthermore, by analyzing media reports, official statements, and the narratives of AYUSH practitioners, I outline factors that contribute to Ayurvedic hegemony. In particular, I argue that the exceptionalism of Ayurveda rests on the fact that, unlike other alternative medical systems in India, it has been promoted as both cultural (“Indian”) and universal medicine—that is, medicine with global appeal.
