Abstract:
Following the end of the thirty years old civil war in Sri Lanka, there were expectations that the post‐war period would usher in peace, development and reconciliation. The last four years have witnessed several positive developments including resettlement of people and rehabilitation of infrastructure. Nonetheless there are range of problems and policy gaps that have hindered the transition from war to sustainable peace. A key post-war challenge is that of violence against religious sites and members of religious communities. More recently, from last year, there has been an unprecedented leve

Abstract:
The end of the long civil war in Sri Lanka in 2009 generated widespread expectations of a peace dividend that would enable the country to embark on a period of sustained economic growth. Recent developments have dampened that optimism, however, rekindling fears that Sri Lanka's tale of missed opportunities may continue. After showing remarkable resilience during decades of war and conflict, the Sri Lankan economy has failed to capitalize on the window of opportunity presented by the end of the military conflict. In the aftermath of military victory, there has been a sharp reversal of trade lib

Abstract:
School children constitute ~20% of the population in Sri Lanka, making school health an important element in primary health care in this country. Sri Lanka faces severe economic problems, the challenge of reducing health inequalities within its society and a continuing ethnically based armed conflict. Historically, the school health program emphasised hygiene, screening for diseases and malnutrition and referrals to specialists. However, many interrelated factors influence the physical, mental and social health of school children. Schools should therefore provide not only a healthy physical se

This paper explores and assesses the presence/absence of institutional arrangements in educational settings for addressing the concerns of gender-variant children (GVC) through a sample survey of schools in the three-country context of India, Sri Lanka and Nepal. This research highlights the need for effective regulatory, normative and cognitive structures to address issues of childhood gender variance. With a contextual analysis of recent developments and comprehensive study of data reports in the three countries, the study analyses multiple dimensions of discrimination and bullying of GVC in

Brought up in a multicultural environment, the respondents of the current study live in a contradiction in terms of their identity. Sri Lankan youths found themselves excluded from both cultures. They found themselves challenging the stereotypes produced by the mainstream society within which they lived, while also demanding freedom from the taboos and customs followed by their parents.

Abstract:
In contrast to orthodox presentations of 'long distance nationalism' as an abstract politics without accountability or responsibility by theorists like Benedict Anderson, I argue that it is essential in the case of conflict diasporas to conceptualize the nature of diaspora support for homeland insurgencies as a contingent product of lived experience, perception, culture and history. Based on qualitative, ethnographic fieldwork, including an analysis of in-depth personal narratives from within the London Tamil diaspora, I attempt to describe the (trans) formative effects of violence, loss and d

In this chapter, the author discusses the historical development of Sinhala music in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in Sri Lanka (called Ceylon until 1972) in relation to colonial surveillance and conceptions of Sri Lanka as an island space. The chapter theorizes “islands” for music studies and compares Sri Lankan discussions on indigeneity and “movements to” the island with those on the Caribbean. The chapter considers mid-twentieth century anxieties that the Sinhalese “have no music” because their music is “too hybrid.” It then argues that in recent decades, music has been a crucial

The introduction articulates the two main aims of the book. The book’s exegetical aim is to provide accurate and charitable reconstructions of Sri Ramakrishna’s philosophical views on the basis of his recorded oral teachings. Throughout the book, the task of philosophical exegesis goes hand in hand with a broader cross-cultural project: bringing Sri Ramakrishna into creative dialogue with recent Western philosophers, thereby shedding new light on central problems in cross-cultural philosophy of religion. As a contribution to this nascent field, the book participates in the recent movement away

Abstract:
This chapter investigates whether there should be more or less secularism in Indonesia and particularly, since religions can be neither wholly privatised nor allowed to dominate political life, what are the best ways of accommodating it in a democratic society, in line with this volume’s overall focus. Indeed, it should be pointed out that Indonesia lived under a military dictatorship from 1965 till 1998 so the question needs to be addressed first by asking if Indonesia is a democracy now; and if it is, what types of accommodations about religion Indonesians have made and why. I come at these questions as a specialist in subjects such as authoritarian regimes, military governments, the breakdown of democracies, failed and successful democratic transitions, and recently the role of religion and politics. My writing is normally comparative, and has often been based on field research in Brazil, Chile, Spain, India, Sri Lanka, Tunisia, Senegal and Indonesia.
