Abstract: In this era of globalisation, Indian women are playing a magnificent role in the progress of their country and trying to increase and raise the real per capita income. In rural areas, women are helping in agricultural work with the male family members. They are not earning money in that time but they are saving money.

Abstract: Media have always played a vital role in positioning of a story since its origin. The coverage of a news item and its positioning in the newspaper will decide the significance of the story. If a newspaper gives more importance to a news item, then there will be an agenda behind it. These agenda will make readers to think the particular story as a crucial one at the time. The study examines the newspaper coverage of JNU issue of two national dailies. The researchers try to examine the coverage of the news by analysing its position in the newspapers..............

Abstract: Since the very outset of their formation, politics has always been crucial and conflict ridden between India and Pakistan. In the long seven decades of political history of India and Pakistan, there has been countless diplomatic strategies including both military and non-military confidence building measures to re-install faith and peace between India and Pakistan. Focusing on the multifarious non-military confidence building measures introduced by the first A.B Vajpayee Central Ministry of India, this paper goes on to argue that the tenure of A.B Vajpayee ministry (1998-2004) was the golden years that witnessed the full-fledged activity of the diplomatic mechanism between India and Pakistan...........

Abstract: The issue of lack of fair hearing, unlawful dismissal of an employee and careless infringement on the fundamental rights of workers by the employers has become a serious disturbing issue. However, the institution of the Ombudsman in Nigeria which could be traced back to the 1974 Udorji Reform which recommended for its establishment in Nigeria was primarily to address that issue. This study therefore, examined the Ombudsman from 2010-2015, with the view to ascertaining how the Ombudsman has helped in ensuring the fundamental human rights of workers; whether or not, the undue government's interference impedes the performance of the Ombudsman especially in Anambra State. To achieve that objective, two research questions and hypotheses were raised.............

Abstract: A lifetime's work in applied marine ecology convinced me that trying to conserve wild populations by 'Scientific Resource Management' is often unsuccessful. Rather than a technical deficiency, this seems to stem from modern society's lack of an ethical context for conserving 'Mother Nature'. A higher priority is placed on the economic value of a resource than preserving its role in the ecosystem. This deficiency didn't apply to the ancient belief system of Animism, which saw Mother Nature as 'The Great Spirit' and the landscape and its ecosystem as Her expression................

Abstract: 'Transnational actors' are increasingly becoming important development partners almost everywhere in the contemporary world. Yet, due attention is not given to what this development mean in general and how these actors function at grass root level; especially in developing countries like Ethiopia. This study explores the role of INGOs in local development processes in Ethiopia focusing on the experience of World Vision in Lalo Assabi and Nejo Woredas of Oromia regional state. In doing so, the study follows qualitative research approach and is based on both primary and secondary data. The overall finding of the work is that World Vision's conception of development is based on both altruism and strategic considerations including its recent 'integrated development approach'............

Abstract: Islam as a responsive religion to all changes and circumstances, it is proper to evaluate its traditional da'wah. Traditional da'wah is a preaching with the use of oral media (dakwah bil lisan).
