Hypermasculine Behaviour of Men at Play
The ideals of masculinity are grounded in the notion of hegemonic masculinity, a cultural construct that places certain male behaviours at the apex of the gender hierarchy. This study explores the manifestation of hypermasculinity in David Fincher’s film Fight Club (1999), focusing on how men display hypermasculine traits to maintain dominance and resist subordination. Through the lens of Masculine Studies, as theorized by Raewyn Connell, the ana…
Workers’ Association (Estd. 1927, Bombay)
It will certainly come as a surprise to many that it is almost a century since the first cine-workers’ association, called the ‘Workers’ Association’, came into being in India, in the Bombay film industry in particular, that too in the late silent cinema period, in 1927. Unfortunately, there is no institutional memory of this workers’ formation, nor is there any mention in the contemporary records except in the evidence accompanying the Indian Ci…
Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh (1954)
Immediately after India’s independence, the Indian revolutionary martyr Bhagat Singh became the focus of several competing biopic projects. A censorship controversy erupted around the making of the now-lost film Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh (1954), the first biopic on the martyr. It became a contentious site where the interests of the filmmakers, former revolutionary colleagues of Bhagat Singh and his family members, and various other stakeholders…
Factors associated with stigma and manifestations experienced by Indian health care workers involved in Covid-19 management in India
Healthcare personnel who deal with COVID-19 experience stigma. There is a lack of national-level representative qualitative data to study COVID-19-related stigma among healthcare workers in India. The present study explores factors associated with stigma and manifestations experienced by Indian healthcare workers involved in COVID-19 management. We conducted in-depth interviews across 10 centres in India, which were analysed using NVivo software …
HIV testing & diagnosis in 2020 at the apex tertiary referral hospital of India
Timely HIV testing and diagnosis are necessary to prevent the development of AIDS and interrupt its transmission in society. We collected the data on HIV testing and diagnosis in 2020 and compared it with preceding years to examine how COVID-19 pandemic-related restrictions impacted HIV services. The number of people who underwent HIV testing at the apex tertiary referral hospital of India in 2020 reduced by 57% compared to 2019 or the average/ye…
Identification and characterization of degradation products of Nateglinide
Nateglinide (NTG) was evaluated under a variety of ICH-recommended forced degradation settings and found to be degraded under acid and alkali hydrolysis but stable under other forced degradation conditions. Under acid hydrolytic conditions, three degradation impurities (I-III) were produced. All three contaminants were separated using a C-18 column with ammonium acetate buffer (20 mM), methanol, and acetonitrile as mobile phases provided in isocr…
The burden of mental disorders across the states of India
BACKGROUND: Mental disorders are among the leading causes of non-fatal disease burden in India, but a systematic understanding of their prevalence, disease burden, and risk factors is not readily available for each state of India. In this report, we describe the prevalence and disease burden of each mental disorder for the states of India, from 1990 to 2017. METHODS: We used all accessible data from multiple sources to estimate the prevalence of …

It also explores the consequences of this overlap followed by the sociocultural aspects of pain through an anthropological lens. This is an anthropological exploration of pain for the benefit of the understanding of our clinicians about human pain and suffering be…

Morphometry of landslides in Garhwal Himalaya, India
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to introduce a simple and convenient method for the landslides study. Design/methodology/approach This study is based upon the individual case study of three past landslides which may probably prove fatal in the near future. It is useful for the measurement of the horizontal length, longitudinal length, altitude at different points and area of the landslide. These measurements are very helpful in calculating t…
Landslide hazard zonation in Hanuman Chatti area of Uttarakhand, India
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to evaluate landslide hazard problems in Hanuman Chatti area of Uttarakhand, India. Every year NH 58 experiences landslide activities, which disrupts the tourist traffic to Badrinath shrine and higher Himalaya. Design/methodology/approach An urgent need is being felt to have a comprehensive landslide hazard evaluation factor (LHEF). The major causative factors that influence the slope stability are lithology, …
Handedness and Gender Differences in Spatial Abilities
The sex- related differences in the cognitive functions are fairly well established and documented as well at least in three different areas viz. Mathematical, verbal skill and spatial visualization (Maccoby and Jacklin, 1974). Precisely, the research on cognitive abilities of men and women has a long history. But it does not imply that there is well documented literature, on the similarities and differences, have not yet agreed on the extent and…
Identity work by alternative high school students
This article examines the adaptive strategies of institutionally marginalized students in an alternative high school setting. Snow and Anderson's (1987) model of ''identity work '' is used to analyze the ways in which students symbolically distance themselves from certain features of their ''home'' school and embrace certain features of their alternative school. Drawing upon semistructured interviews with 25 students, it is argued that these dist…
