Drawing on cutting-edge multidisciplinary scholarship, it explains why caste continues to be neglected in the politics of and scholarship on West Bengal, and how caste relations have permeated the politics of the region until today.

The “Leaders Talk” is diversified with HR, Legal, and Mental Health Professionals. Each interview is well articulated with professional expertise and intuitions. Answers by the leaders to common questions are fascinating and offer a unique insight into the personality of leaders. Some of the questions are thought-provoking, inspiring, and motivating. These answers will be eye-openers for young readers and will help them aspire the leadership positions with passion. The interesting fact is that the questions are in the areas of personality, leadership styles, human resources, industrial relations, motivational factors, legal aspects, health aspects, and many more. This makes this book a striking masterpiece. I appreciate all the leaders for taking their time and helping the interviewers for this work. This book is distinctive as it will serve as a mentor, coach, guide, friend, and self-reflector. Readers can connect themselves with the thoughts expressed by the marvelous leaders in this book. Leadership is not just an act; It is a responsibility with accountability. Thus, shaping the leadership persona is not a day’s act or skill gained from attending a few training programs. It is a result of true penance. This book will introduce all those achievers with whom you can structure the leadership path.

It is very natural and expected that any professional in any area of specialisation gets some sudden doubt or needs clarification on any issue. More particularly in the area of legal compliance or even while seeking or providing clarification to anyone, including colleagues and superiors. We continue to live in an era of the plethora of labour legislations, that too varied interpretations under judicial pronouncements. And many times, we need fast and quick inputs. And it is our experience that when we get or know the clarifying answer assertively, most problems get solved in a matter of seconds. Whenever I conduct sessions on Labour Laws, I conclude with a set of objective tests to evaluate and or to further clarify the doubts which have shown positive indications. In teaching in Management Schools, MBA, MSW, and Law, the faculty must be equipped with precise answers and even administering tests and evaluations. Now, all of us are aware of the upcoming new Four Labour Codes. Many of us, start asking ourselves, what are the answers in the Four Labour Codes and a comparative clarification? Keeping these in view, I conceived an idea and, after a thought-provoking process, to compile all possible questions and precise answers in respect of all labour legislations as also under the four Labour Codes. I am sure this would help everyone to get a comparative answer and/or clarifications simultaneously. I have been to compile around 600 questions covering 22 labour legislations, including “Management of Discipline “. The answers cover under present labour legislations as well as under Four Labour Codes. I have tried to substantiate the answers based on judicial views/judgements wherever possible. I am sure this book – FAQs & ANSWERS covering the Labour Legislations, will be a handy reckoner, a handbook to the HR Fraternity, Faculty and Students of management schools, MBA, MSW & Law.

The issue of political participation has been central to American politics since the founding of the United States. The Politics of Democratic Inclusion addresses the ways traditionally underrepresented groups have and have not achieved political incorporation, representation, and influence—or "democratic inclusion"—in American politics. Each chapter provides a "state of the discipline" essay that addresses the politics of diversity from a range of perspectives and in a variety of institutional arenas. Taken together, the essays in The Politics of Democratic Inclusion evaluate and advance our understanding of the ways in which the structure, processes, rules, and context of the American political order encourage, mediate, and hamper the representation and incorporation of traditionally disadvantaged groups.

Len Barton’s intellectual and practical contribution to the sociology of disability and education is highly significant and widely known. The leading scholars in this collection, including his long term collaborators, offer both a celebration and a reassessment of this contribution, addressing the challenge that the social model of disability has presented to dominant medicalised concepts, categories and practices, and their power to define the identity and the lives of others. At the same time the authors build upon some of the key themes that are woven through Len Barton’s work, such as his call for a ‘politics of hope’. This collection explores a wide range of topics, including: difference as a field of political struggle the relationship of disability studies, disabled people and their struggle for inclusion radical activism: organic intellectuals and the disability movement discrimination, exclusion and effective change inclusive education the ‘politics of hope’, resilience and transformative actions universal pedagogy, human rights and citizenship debates. The Sociology of Disability and Inclusive Education highlights Len Barton’s humane vision of academic work, of the nature of an inclusive and non-discriminatory society, of the role of an education system which addresses the rights, and potential of all participants. It indicates how such a society could be achieved through the principles of social inclusion, human rights, equity and social justice. This book was originally published as a special issue of the British Journal of Sociology of Education.

In this volume, the European research project YUSEDER ("Youth Unemployment and Social Exclusion: Dimensions, Subjective Experiences and Institutional Responses in Six Countries of the EU"), supported by the EU Commission (Directorate General Research) as a part of the programme Targeted Socio-Economic Research (TSER), addresses the question of what effects long-term unemployment has on young people in regard of their feeling of belonging to society. Does long-term unemployment imply the risk of social exclusion for young people? How does social exclusion develop, and which factors counteract the processes of exclusion? Thus far, research into unemployment has seldom performed comparative studies. This interdisciplinary project in six European countries has conducted for the first time a qualitative study with 300 long-term unemployment young people from age 20 to 25. The inquiry was carried out in the three northern European countries Sweden, Belgium and Germany and in the three southern European countries Greece, Italy and Spain. Researches from psychology, sociology, public health and psychiatry participated in this research project coordinated by Thomas Kieselbach (University of Bremen, Germany). The volumes in the series published up to now within the YUSEDER project represent a state of the art overview of the topic of youth unemployment and health (volume 1) and youth unemployment and social exclusion (volume 2) in the six participating countries. This third volume focuses on the personal experiences and assessments of young people affected by unemployment. Besides presenting the country-specific manifestations of social exclusion, this new study identifies those important key mechanisms which increase (vulnerability factors) or reduce (protective factors) the risk of social exclusion. The results of this interdisciplinary comparative study represent an important basis for conceptualising future intervention measures in the European Union which could redu
