Title | : | The comparative analysis of the Issues of Corruption and Insecurity: with special reference to Nigeria and India |
Country | : | Nigeria |
Authors | : | Dr Anshul Bajpai |
Abstract: The issues of corruption and national security have generated substantial interests particularly regarding its meanings, nature and dimensions. Yet the two issues have remained major challenges in the political economy of contemporary Nigeria. To this extent, this paper merely asks two questions. First, what do we mean when we say corruption and national security? Is there a single meaning or are there multiple meanings? Second, how has the reality of corruption and national security interacted and thereby impacted the political economy of Nigeria as well as India? Is there any relationship between corruption and national security and does the former pose any threat to the latter?

Title | : | Effectiveness of Argumentation based instruction on achievement in science of secondary school students |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Mohammed Nasimudheen T. || Dr. M.N. Mohamedunni Alias Musthafa |
Abstract: In recent years, there has been a major shift in perceiving learning from a process confined to individual mind towards process involving social and cultural dimensions. Considering science learning as something isolated from society and confined only to mere observation and experiment is a divorce to the material bond of science and society. The inclusion of argumentation and debate in the science classroom is a rising area of interest among science educators..

Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Md. Abdul Wahab || Maniza Khatun |
Abstract: Women Empowerment can be considered a change in the context of a woman's life that enables her increased capacity to lead a fulfilling human life, characterized by external qualities such as health, mobility, education and awareness, status in family, participation in decision making and level of material security, as well as internal qualities such as self-awareness and self confidence. In the era of globalization women empowerment is a vital issue of all over the world. Promotion of gender equality and empowerment of women is one of the fifteenth Millennium Development Goals declared by the UNO. Without empowerment of women in every field like- economic, social, cultural, political etc. no one can think about all round development of the society and the concept of sustainable human development.

Title | : | How Black is Black? The tragedy of being Black in Richard Wright's Native Son and Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man. |
Country | : | India |
Authors | : | Miazi Hazam |
Abstract: Colour difference has been one of the most powerful tools for racial segregation and identity-formation in colonial spaces. One of the central engagements of postcolonial literature has been to challenge and dismantle this process of identity-formation based on half-truths or no truths and prejudiced notions of race/ethnicity, nationality and colour. When it comes to racial segregation on the basis of colour, African-American literature stands as an important tradition in challenging the stereotype of the Negro created in white-centric discourse.
