Parthasarathy, Padmapriya. ""The father, and after him, the mother" : gender in judicial reasoning in Hindu custody law." Thesis, University of Kent, 2018. https://kar.kent.ac.uk/68771/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis problematises the treatment of gender in judicial reasoning in the cases decided under Hindu custody law in Indian courts. India has several religious personal laws to regulate the lives of its citizens. Of these, Hindu law governs the personal lives of about 800 million people in India and forms the largest set of personal laws. It is largely based on Common Law Principles, due to colonial influence at the time of its codification. However, there has been limited research on case law in this area of law, especially in terms of analysing gender in these judgments. This thesis takes

Abstract:
Bruhn (2008) and Griffiths (1978) have referred in passing to Messiaen's use of non-Western content as an appropriation, but a consideration of its potential moral and aesthetic failings within the scope of modern literature on artistic cultural appropriation is an underexplored topic. Messiaen's first encounter with India came during his student years, by way of a Sanskrit version of Saṅgītaratnākara (c. 1240 CE) written by the thirteenth-century Hindu musicologist Śārṅgadeva. I examine Messiaen's use of Indian deśītālas within a cultural appropriation context. Non-Western music prov

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis attempts to interpret the events surrounding the codification and implementation of Hindu law in late eighteenth century Bengal, under the government of the East India Company. The first chapter provides the necessary framework of historical facts for this interpretation; it consists primarily of a narrative of events such as the implementation of structural changes to the judicature, and the collection and translation of "laws" from the Hindu normative treatises, the dharmasastra, in Company sponsored legal digests. The second chapter provides the basic theoretical framework

Full text
Abstract:
This report examines the rhetorical strategies employed in several judicial cases during the 1920s in which the U.S. government contested the racial eligibility of Hindus for naturalization under a law providing that only “white persons” were eligible for naturalization. Through a close examination of the arguments and evidence in the cases, the report argues that the decisions in the cases were inextricably linked to the the conflict between the British and a rising Hindu nationalism movement in the struggle for Indian independence during the period surrounding World War I, and thereby highli

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to investigate the Indian Hindu nationalist concept of “love jihad”, an idea based upon the alleged fact that Muslim men actively seeks out non-Muslim women for conversion to Islam by various methods including, false promises of love and abductions. While the accusation that Muslims are conducting love jihad currently is being propagated by several active Hindu nationalist groups, the focus of this paper lies on the Viśva Hindū Pariṣad (VHP) and the Rāṣṭrīya Svayaṃsevak Saṃgh (RSS), two major branches within the so-called family of Hindu nationalist organisations, or t

Abstract:
In the early nineteenth century, the Khoja Muslim community of Western India had a remarkably syncretic culture and religious life with a unique blend of Hindu, Sunni and Shi'a Islamic traditions. From 1847-1937, the Khojas were distinguished as a distinct community by the British, requiring judicial recognition of their unique customs and practices. The Bombay courts determined that a Khoja 'custom' which disinherited daughters meant that Hindu, not Muslim, laws of inheritance applied to this Muslim sect.

Indeed, despite rapid advances in technology, the “tyranny of language” creates a segmentation inhibiting scholarly research and innovation generally.

Our paper proposes a strategy for remedying this segmentation – such that, the work of non-English language scholars become more discoverable. The core piece of this strategy is a “reverse-engin
