Understanding State Formation: The Role of Political Parties in South Sudanese State-crafting and Failure

State crafting, failure and, collapse is an interesting area of social science research, which has been remotely examined by comparative political scientists. The paper comprehensively examines the crafting and failure of South Sudanese state. It conceptualizes state, state-crafting, state failure and collapse. It surveys the role of political parties in understanding state-crafting and failure in South Sudan. Empirically, the paper argues that South Sudanese political parties particularly, Sudan People’ Liberation Movement (SPLM) have contributed in South Sudanese failure than crafting and prosperity. This is demonstrated through ethnicization of politics and politicization of ethnicity and through ethnic divisions. Using empirical literature, the paper discusses state crafting, failure and dissects the role of political parties in which SPLM has a big hand in the state failure of South Sudan. In its methodology, the paper deploys primary and secondary sources in tapping the understanding of the role of South Sudanese political parties in state-crafting and failure. Primary data include the use of questionnaires and interviews in comprehending state formation and in particular, the role played by South Sudanese political parties in nascent state-crafting and failure. Secondary sources include the use of literature review in understanding political parties and their role in South Sudanese state failure. The study uses a sample size of 200 respondents with sample types of persuasives and cluster sampling combined. The study also combines case study and process tracing methods to contextualize and validate causal chains and empirical casual processes of South Sudan state formation and role of political parties in state-crafting and failure. The results of the study indicate that SPLM as a main ruling party has a huge contribution in South Sudanese state failure. While other 28 registered political parties are ethnic-based given that because they don’t have national programmes across South Sudan, their contributed to South Sudanese state failure cannot be equated with SPLM. These 28 parties have their presence in the bomas, payams and counties only and have endeavored to promote ethnic divisions and violence in South Sudan. Finally, the paper draws conclusions on the need for civic role of political parties in state-crafting and democratization of South Sudan. The paper recommends future research on the role of SPLM party in reversing state failure and rescuing South Sudan from collapse.

برصغیر میں مثنوی معنوی کی اُردو شرح نویسی: بیسویں صدی کے تنا ایک مطالعہ

After the beginning of the 20th century and the British domination, such fundamental changes took place at every level of the Indo-Islamic civilization. The majority of the scholars who were fierce in Islam had fallen in front of limited knowledge, communism, capitalism, liberalism and nationalism. In such a difficult time, Islamic thinkers and Sufi saints equipped with Islamic and modern knowledge step ahead and presented themselves for the service of religion. These Islamic thinkers popularized the teachings of Masnavi Manawi through their compilations, articles and various lectures. However, there is historical evidence that these Sufis and their caliphs continued to give priority to the 'Musnawi Maanwi' in their teachings. In this way, the Islamic ideas and thoughts contained in Masnavi Manawi became popular among the people. As if Masnavi has a big hand in the renaissance of Muslims in the subcontinent, as if Masnavi dominates the entire history of Islamic education in other senses. It has been more or less eight hundred years since Maulana Jalaluddin Rumi (1207-1273) left this world. During this long period, almost every period shows a large number of works on the Masnavi, which gives clear evidence of the popularity and universality of the Masnavi. Masnavi is a book of divine mysteries. Therefore, this valuable work has the status of an inspired book in Iran, Turkey and the Indian subcontinent. In view of the importance and usefulness of Masnavi, many scholars, Sufis and modern thinkers wrote exegesis on it for the convenience of the people. In this article, this exegesis (explanations) will be studied briefly.

Монгол, солонгос хэлний “гар”－тай нийлэмж үгийн төлөөллийн онцлог

In this study, metonymic expression of ‘hand’ among the five human senses was studied in the context of Mongolian and Korean language.
 Based on the theory of cognitive linguistics, we compared compound words abstracted through the five human senses(hands) in the context of Mongolian and Korean languages, and how the transitional meaning of the word is formed in these languages. “Hand” shows the expression of many behaviors, such as “person, relationship, control, ownership, power”, etc. Regarding the classification of representation, it is considered that 2 categories represent the whole by parts and the whole by parts. Representation is classified into real and abstract representation.
 (1) It is common in Mongolian language to represent a person with the “hand” of the five sensory organs in real representation, but with the help of accent words such as “big, right, big” to indicate the rank and rank of the person, “right hand, big hand, long hand, big hand” “Empty” has a wider meaning than the Korean language.
 (2) When expressing anger with compound words whose abstract representation indicates various emotional states, compound words with the word “hand” are more involved, and are manifested in words such as “the hand is tense, the hand is itchy, the hand is moving”, although they have the same meaning in Mongolian and Korean languages. even indicating the specifics of that emotion.

Bishop’s items from the vestry of Nikolaevsky Perervinsky monastery are considered as markers of artistic and social monastic milieu and as things reflecting the social-historical context of Russia in the second half of the 18th century. As a result of a complex attribution research of the saccos and the crozier, of studying unpublished monastic inventory and account books of the 18th - 19th centuries, it became possible to correlate the artifacts with the person of Metropolitan Plato (Levshin) of Moscow, with whom “the Golden age” of Perervinsky monastery is associated. Special attention is paid to the textiles of the saccos: a brocade damask with the pattern of “big hand” and cut velvet cross patterned. In Russian brocade weaving to the third quarter of the 18th century a special direction was formed - church weaving. Metropolitan Platon was the first to begin serving again in polystauri vestments, bringing ancient Byzantine traditions back to life. The production of cross textiles was resumed under Emperor Paul I, whose personality was greatly influenced by Metropolitan Plato.

PERANAN DAKWAH DALAM MEDIA WEBSITE DAN PENGARUHNYA DI MASYARAKAT

Abstract
 The Western world, communication technology and mass media, have a big hand in building and establishing the moral principles of society. Internet media in particular, have a major role in introducing new norms of society. For the Islamic Ummah it is necessary to strengthen the missionary motivation which takes up so much time and attention of the majority Muslim community. Even now the technological means have been dubbed by the people of various terms for example, as a corona screen, a magic box, a window to the world and so on. The rapid introduction of new norms was made possible because the media moved with the principle of freedom of expression without preaching motivation, so that these principles were often used as a pretext for pursuing worldly interests. Unfortunately, many developing countries, including those claiming to be Muslim countries, follow this trend. As a result, Muslims around the world have been trapped in a foreign conceptual framework, which resulted in a media invasion of their value system, ethical perceptions, moral standards, sociocultural views, and even their religious beliefs. Therefore, Islam needs to set a da'wah strategy in all aspects of life through communication systems, especially electronic media that affect many people. This should not be ignored, and must be directed in accordance with Islamic perinsif which covers all aspects of life through the da'wah strategy. Technological development cannot be dammed. The role of Muslim communicators must defend the truth so that justice remains upheld. Justice cannot possibly be upheld without safeguarding the truth and this is the main task for the Islamic Ummah to carry out scientific charity including one of which is the application user in the mass media.

Urban Life, Rural Thinking: incomplete urbanization and strategy of survival (the case of Dar Es Salam, Tanzania)

The paper explores particular features of incomplete urbanization in Dar es Salam, Tanzania. It studies the lives of people, who have just moved into the big city, as well as the lives of the second or third-generation immigrants from countryside and rural districts. In the first part of the study these features are treated using the anthropological and historical methodology; in the second part attention is paid to respondents’ perception of life in megapolis compared to those in native villages. Features of incomplete urbanization include: creation of informal settlements, formation of living community and city space by means of its inhabitants (just as in the villages); employment in the informal sectors of economy, small-scale commerce or small-scale services requiring no education or highly specialized skills (for example, growing and selling of fruits and vegetables, just as in the villages); establishment of mutual help groups (instead of relatives’ and villagers’ help, now absent); use of the social commitment power instead of legal power, importance of family and person’s own reputation; appeal to moral authority of group leaders instead of calling the police in case of conflicts; patrolling and securing the territory of informal settlements by units of people’s militia at night (in coordination with state police). It is clear that these practices have emerged in the big city hand in hand with migrants from rural regions. Incomplete urbanization and its trends can be treated as a result of insufficient state support of the poor, but in some ways it continues and even develops social relations, which existed before colonization and then were additionally enhanced during the nation-building and implementation of Julius Nyerere’s “ujamaa” concept after Tanzania gained independence.

Des armes en ivoire de mammouth : deux cas particuliers

The Upper Palaeolithic material made from mammoth ivory comprises many hunting weapons, mostly spear points and a few big hand spears, mainly from Eastern Europe notably Poland, the Czech Republic and Russia… Two objects stand out through their uniqueness. The first one is a fragment of a spearthrower, the only one made in ivory, decorated in semi round, in the shape of a young bovid, probably a bison. It dates to the Middle Magdalenian and comes from the La Madeleine shelter in Dordogne (France). The second one is a non-returning boomerang with a striated handle, dating to the Early Gravettian and coming from the Obłazowa cave in Poland. Its morphology and morphometry are very like some Australian examples.

IBN KHALDUN THOUGHT: A review of al-Muqaddimah Book

Nowadays Muslim and non-Muslim scholar have no paid exhaustion attention yet onal- Muqaddimah book of Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406). Al-Muqaddimah Book is still being studied and debated critically. Actually, this work is still “dazzling” social scientists, anthropologists, theologians, philosophers, historians, and economists even compared with the other great works produced by other classical Muslim scholars. Search for the book of al-Muqaddimah Ibn Khaldun intends to seek and drank authenticity thoughts. It becomes important in the center of issue. We should be wise to this Muslim leader, because it has a big hand in an attempt to find the “authenticity” of Muslim thought. By using the method of historical research, it is obtained: first,for Ibn Khaldun, history is one of the disciplines studied extensively by the nations and generations. Second, the legal history is applicable universally so the truth can be revealed. Third, a historian should study the areas of human life (sociology, anthropology, theology, philosophy, history, and economics) to determine differences between main and general characteristics. Fourth, related to the modern social sciences, undoubtedly Ibn Khaldun is first beginning of sciences. He was a golden bridge for the development of science and the history of modern sociology

Exploring the Gender Aspect in Selected Qualitative Indicators of Wellbeing in Urban Slum Women with Special Reference to Pune City Year 2014–15

As reflected in the census of 2011, women as a stratum of the society have less education, earn less income and are less nourished as compared to the male population. In effect women are poor as compared to men in different walks of life and face inequalities on almost all levels be it inequality of resources or of opportunities to develop. The macroeconomic indicators like literacy rate, work force participation, income earning capacity, political participation etc. reflect the gender based inequalities in various dimensions on an aggregate level. Apart from the obvious importance of education, health and employment, issues like freedom of choice, participation in decision making, dignity and personal security have a big hand in determining the quality of life, in other words ‘wellbeing’. This paper tries to explore the extent of wellbeing in the lives of women in urban slum households based in Pune city. An attempt has been made through focussed interviews of forty women in informal surroundings in a group as well as individually. Analysis has been attempted on the degree of Independence enjoyed, Autonomy of Small decisions, Financial Security and Dignity and Personal security. The women were questioned according to the parameter analysed as mentioned in detail in each indicator. All the answers were quantified as ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. If the answer suggested discrimination it was given the weightage of zero while if the answer was positive ethically i.e. no discrimination then the answer was given the weightage of one. Thus all the responses were analysed and the degree of independence, dignity and personal security, financial security and financial awareness was estimated. The ultimate purpose of this paper is to explore the inter-generational change in attitude, the constraints experienced in case of girls, the scope of their expectations from life and especially the societal perception of what is ‘acceptable’ in other words ‘Freedom of Choice’
