Swati Ganguly's book Tagore's University: A History of Visva-Bharati, 1921-1961 (New India Foundation, 2022) is for anyone who is searching for tangible ways to revamp higher education, re-organize our socio-economic life, and reimagine participatory democracy. Tagore's University is a history of Visva-Bharati, the world centre of learning and culture founded by Rabindranath Tagore a hundred years ago. The poet's conception entailed several autonomous centres – for Asian studies, the visual arts, music, and rural reconstruction – in defiance of the standard notions of a university. Visva-Bharati was set up to break barriers between nations and races by rebuilding in miniature the visva – the world torn apart by World War I. The book traces the first four decades of this large experiment in building a cultural community of learning, teaching, and scholarship. It tells the story of exceptional individuals from across Europe, Asia, America, and India who became Tagore's collaborators in a mini-universe of creativity and humane intellection. It reveals why in its heyday Visva-Bharati was so internationally renowned as an extraordinarily attractive institution. Swati Ganguly explores the many achievements of what Tagore called his “life's best treasure”. She also narrates changes in the material life and spirit of the place after Tagore, when it was shaped by the larger forces of a newly independent India. Archives, memoirs, official documents, and oral narratives come alive in this compellingly written and little-known history of an institution that once redefined tradition and modernity. Interested listeners can order a very affordable copy on AbeBooks. In general, AbeBooks is a good vender for getting printed books from Indian publishers. The interview is a bit on the long side. Feel free to skip parts of it. Generally speaking, the first hour is about the administrative history (chronology) of Visvabharati and the second hour is about each program: oriental studies, arts, rural reform, and life (like adda) in Santiniketan. Trust me, wherever you begin, you'll find fascinating stories, amazing lives lived, and bold dreams and courageous experiments to build a different way of life for all. Jessica Zu is an intellectual historian and a scholar of Buddhist studies. She is an assistant professor of religion at the University of Southern California. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Chola dynasty of centuries-old saw the rise of popular and determined kings that consolidated lands in southern and eastern India, the Indian Ocean, and even as far as south-east Asia. Their influence was unparalleled at the time, with King Rajaraja Chola I setting up a political, social, cultural, and economic landscape that took the empire through almost a dozen centuries. But before Rajaraja Chola, there was an internal war for power and control -- and two of its central characters may have been -- Nandini, a mysterious woman that made it to the top of the Chola food chain, and Kundavai, who was the sister of Rajaraja Chola. History, legend, myth, and fiction make the stories around Nandini and Kundavai a bit blurry -- who were they and how did they rise to power? Did they even hold real power, during a time when being born male was paramount to all else? And more importantly… did they even exist? We bring on board guest Anirudh Kanisetti to help us navigate through the murky waters of Chola history. Anirudh is an Indian historian, author of 'Lords of the Deccan: Southern India from the Chalukyas to the Cholas', and host of 'Echoes of India: A History Podcast', right here on IVM Podcasts network.

Come Carpentier became interested in UFOs and extraterrestrial life in the late 1960s when he learned about the mysterious Ummo case in France and Spain. Alleged extraterrestrials from the planet Ummo created an office in Spain where they began corresponding with scientists and UFOlogists from around the world introducing them to advanced physics and philosophies. Come later moved from the Canary Islands, Spain, to New Delhi, India in 1975 and went on to distinguish himself in the study of world politics. He is currently a Distinguished Fellow in the India Foundation and convenor for the academic journal, World Affairs. Come combines his professional research on world politics with his long time interest in exopolitics where he has investigated many historical UFO cases from around the world. These include the famed Friendship (Amicizia) case in northern Italy (1956-1978), and UFO sightings in the Himalayan region of India and Tibet. In the 1980s, he traveled to Colorado, USA, where he met a high ranking USAF general who confided information about official contact and relations with extraterrestrial civilizations. In this Exopolitics Today interview, Come discusses his background, conventional political interests, and how these intersect with exopolitics. He describes the dividing line between World Politics and exopolitics as a razor's edge, which he has learned to carefully tread for more than 50 years. Come is the organizer of a major academic conference to be held in New Delhi from Sept 22-24, 2022, titled:" "Exploring Consciousness- From Non-Locality to Non-Duality: The Man-Machine Debate". It will be live streamed from https://www.youtube.com/c/IndiaFoundationChannel Come Carpentier's website is: http://www.comecarpentier.com/ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/exopolitics/support

Vivaan Marwaha talks about his learning in the process of writing his book, What Millennials Want, in a conversation with writer, poet and executive director of India Foundation for the Arts, Arundhati Ghosh. India is one of the youngest countries in the world and the generation of millennials make up for over 400 million people. This is the largest generation of people in the world. That means that the choices and trajectory of this generation have pivotal consequences on local, regional, and global politics and economics. So the important question is: What do Indian millennials want? What are their economic aspirations and their social views? Most importantly, what makes them tick? In What Millennials Want, Vivan Marwaha documents the aspirations and anxieties of these young people scattered across more than 30,000 kilometers in 13 Indian states. Combining an expansive dataset along with personal anecdotes, he narrates an intimate biography of India's millennials, investigating their attitudes towards sex, marriage, employment, religion, and politics. This episode of BIC Talks is an extract from the live event that took place in late October 2021 in the BIC premises.

Anirudh Kanisetti is the author of Lords of the Deccan. Holding a first-class honours degree from BITS Pilani and having previously worked at the Takshashila Institution, he is currently an Editor at the Museum of Arts and Photography. He has received grants from the Princeton Center for Digital Humanities and the India Foundation for the Arts, and his writings and work have been featured in The Hindu, The New Indian Express, LiveMint and ThePrint, among others. He hosts two critically acclaimed podcasts – Echoes of India and Yuddha. Book description: The history of the vast Indian subcontinent is usually told as a series of ephemeral moments when a large part of modern-day India was ruled by a single sovereign. There is an obsession with foreign invasions and the polities of the Gangetic plains, while the histories of the rest of the subcontinent have been reduced to little more than dry footnotes. Now, in his brilliant and critically acclaimed debut book, Anirudh Kanisetti shines a light into the darkness, bringing alive for the lay-reader the early medieval Deccan, from the sixth century CE to the twelfth century CE, in all its splendour and riotous glory. It is a world of bloody elephant warfare and brutal military stratagems; of alliances and betrayals; where a broken king commits ritual suicide, and a shrewd hunchbacked prince founds his own kingdom under his powerful brother's nose. This is a world where a king writes a bawdy play that is a parable for religious contestation; where the might of India's rulers and the wealth of its cities were talked of from Arabia to Southeast Asia; and where south Indian kingdoms serially invaded and defeated those of the north. This painstakingly researched forgotten history of India will keep you riveted and enthralled. You will never see the history of the subcontinent the same way again.

Take out your notebooks because this will be a very eye-opening class that you may wish to revisit in the future.

This episode of India Foundation Podcasts features a conversation between Capt (IN) Alok Bansal, Director, India Foundation and Ms Soumya Chaturvedi, Senior Research Fellow, India Foundation on the recent developments in Afghanistan.
Please listen to the podcast (click the ‘play’ button above). A version of this essay will be published by Chintan of the India Foundation.The terrifying riots there have died down a bit, but not before causing significant damage. Not only the deaths, but the damage to the economy and to investor confidence must be substantial. A major oil refinery was shut down, highways were blocked, telecom towers and warehouses were torched. Thousands of small businesses as well as malls were looted, and in many cases, burnt to the ground.From an Indian point of view, the plight of Indian-origin businesses, as well as of people of Indian origin, is of great concern. There is the naive belief in some circles that because of the Gandhi legacy (after all, he lived in that country for years) and the respect Nelson Mandela had for him, there must be some goodwill among South Africans for Indians.That is far from the case, as a rule. It is just as risible as believing American blacks have some fellow-feeling for Indians just because Martin Luther King spoke glowingly of Gandhi. On the contrary, the average American black views all Asians as competing for the crumbs that non-whites get. I realized this long ago about South Africa while reading apartheid-era novels, wherein the Indian-origin people are members of the African National Congress, but they are distinctly second-class. Quite rightly, black South Africans dominate: it is their country, after all. A few whites, propelled by what we now call ‘social justice’ are also part of the inner circles. But the Indians are outsiders, tolerated at best, excluded at worst. We have seen this in many countries: Tamils in Sri Lanka, Chettiars in Burma, Gujaratis in Uganda and much of East Africa, and Tamil plantation workers in Malaysia. The list goes on. It mirrors the Jewish experience in much of Europe, and the Chinese experience in Southeast Asia: unloved immigrants who nevertheless are important for the economy.Apartheid-era South Africa, if I am not mistaken, had clear divisions: whites, coloreds (mixed-race people), blacks and Indians. There was little mixing across the groups. I knew a white American in Boston who had worked in South Africa. He had interacted with hardly any Indians, and thought they were under the ‘colored’ rubric. In a Laurens van der Post novel, there’s a character named Miss Naidoo, an ANC member, and a cripple. I think the metaphor was not accidental. Indians have a history of being outsiders in the societies they immigrate to; and often the butt of both envy and disdain, as they are non-violent, and often affluent, and thus perfect victims. It is also known that the Indian government does very little even for its expatriate citizens, not to mention long-ago migrants. This could well be the reason that many Indian businesses were attacked. Durban, KwaZulu Natal, is where most Indians live.The prevailing wisdom from the Western media is that the riots were political, instigated, and pre-planned. It is said that the goal was regime change, as the current president, Cyril Ramaphosa, is unwinding widespread corruption by the previous president, Jacob Zuma, whose arrest was the proximate cause for the troubles. Zuma’s children and foundation, as well as his ethnic group, the dominant Zulus, are accused of malfeasance. We in India should note those words: regime-change, instigated, pre-planned riots, ethnic-group, corruption. This is precisely what is going on here too: the ancien regime, corrupt to the core, manufactures reasons for riots, with the help of malign outsiders, and its vote-banks can create disturbances at the drop of a hat. The intent is a ‘color revolution’, a violent overthrow of the current regime. It is an exact match with what apparently went down in South Africa.But there are dissenting voices. A friend who’s a professor at the University of Cape Town (he could well be a Zulu himself, I didn’t ask), said, and I quote his message verbatim, in its entirety: Looting and many forms of violent public protests are very common in South Africa. The current one has been very massive. To a large extent, this has been a result of the covid-19 pandemic. Due to the lock down restrictions, unemployment has risen so much, people are struggling. Initially govt was providing a sort of social grant to cushion the effects, but that was stopped months ago. So any trigger would get people into the streets.The professor is painting a different picture. South Africa has long been infamous for violence, including against foreigners; car-jackings; murders; and general mayhem. Coincidentally, I was watching a film named ‘Chappie’ about robot cops set in Johannesburg: the crime is getting to be too much for human police to handle. So which is it? A pure political spectacle as we see in India, or is it the aakrosham of a people who were restive anyway, but have been devastated by the pandemic? It is important for us to know. South Africa is a beautiful country; it is the locomotive economy for the entire continent; and if it collapses into a failed state, it puts a big crimp into India’s own Indian-Ocean-Rim based economic prospects for the future.

This episode of India Foundation Podcasts features the proceedings of a 3 day webinar on “Tithi Shastra: Dating the Mahabharata” organised by India Foundation and Draupadi Dream Trust on January 22-25, 2021.
In 2014, Arjun Bahl and Thanish Thomas along with three of their co-founders, Hanif Kureshi, Giulia Ambrogi and Akshat Nauriyal, went to Shahpur Jat in New Delhi with a few artists and decided to paint the walls with art that was both vibrant and relayed a story or a message. With that, St+art India Foundation was formed and soon snowballed into a national movement that would propel street art in the country. The not-for-profit organisation’s idea to get art out of the galleries and away from elitist control was welcomed by scores of people as their reach grew to cover 25 cities, six art districts, 21 festivals and over 500 local and intentional artists. St+art India is not the first street art movement in India but no other cause grew to the national significance it has. So how did the founders manage to do that?

St+art India is the brainchild of 5 co-founders all belonging to diverse backgrounds. Founded in 2014 by Arjun Bahl, Hanif Kureshi, Giulia Ambrogi, Akshat Nauriyal, and Thanish Thomas. St+art India is a not-for-profit foundation with the intent of making art more democratic.

St+art has made over, 500 artworks in 10 Indian cities with more than 100 artists from over 25 countries. You can check out Episode # 78 where I spoke to Giulia Ambrogi about St+art project and insights into murals. Today I have Hanif Kureshi with us on Audogyan. Hanif is a Designer, Typographer, and the Artistic Director and Co-founder of St+art India Foundation. He is one of the most sought after artists in India. Today we are here to discuss painting on streets. Thanks, Hanif for giving your time and it's a real pleasure to have you on Audiogyan. Topic St+Art movement with Hanif Kureshi. Questions I am quoting you from one of your articles online, "While graffiti was once considered a nuisance, it is now a wonderful showcase of alternative art, a sub-culture that sometimes surpasses the mainstream in its fanbase." - I have 2 questions. 1, Why was it considered a nuisance? 2. How & why did it change? Is street art an Indian thing? Where do you see it’s rooted in India? What role does space play while making artworks of such huge sizes? Can you share any particular example/case study? Borrowing from the Startindia website, "Indian streets are very unique. They are a microcosm of the millions of diverse voices that co-exist in this vast and wonderful nation of ours." - How do you pick subject/theme of what to draw? Both in temporary and permanent structures. The cut-out type work is very dominant in the south of India. What can be learned from it and push the envelop further? Can you share a few positives and few negatives while making this street art movement? From establishments, from art creators/lovers and general audience? How does street art influence the aesthetics of the overall society/area/community? You guys are also involved with the ‘Smart Cities’ program and the ‘Swachh Bharat Mission’. Can you talk more about it? What is the long term future of St+art movement? https://st-artindia.org (https://st-artindia.org/) https://www.outlookindia.com/outlooktraveller/see/story/27477/street-art-in-delhi-i https://www.instagram.com/startindia/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpEHZpPCZN2yeNTXlH41Cyw https://www.facebook.com/startindiafoundation

India is one of the first countries to impose the lockdown policies to curb the spread of COVID-19, as obviously there are some socio-economic impacts after the lockdown applied to entire India.

I talked with Praket Arya, a Senior Research Fellow and Economist at India Foundation to discuss how the Indian government copes with this situation and how can they manage it so far? Moreover, I asked him also on how is the assessment towards the leadership of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the time of this crisis.

In this Episode of India's World focuses on the warming of ties between India and South Africa. India and South Africa on Friday sealed a three year strategic programme to further boost cooperation in a number of key areas after talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. In his media statement, PM Modi said both sides discussed all aspects of the bilateral ties with an aim to further expand cooperation in diverse areas. Ramaphosa said his country was looking at a "result oriented" partnership with India through implementation of the three-year strategic exchange programme. The strategic programme will cover cooperation in a range of areas including defence and security, trade and investment, the blue economy, tourism, IT and agriculture. Ramaphosa, who arrived in Delhi on Friday morning, was the chief guest at the Republic Day Parade on Saturday. It was the fourth meeting between PM Modi and President Ramaphosa within a year.

Today I have Giulia Ambrogi with us on Audiogyan. She is a co-founder and curator of a non-profit organisation, St+art India Foundation which has been making waves in the Indian street art movement. It aims to make our streets more interactive through the medium of urban art festivals across India. They have been instrumental in improving the aesthetics of cities like Delhi, Hyderabad, Bangalore and Mumbai. And today we are here to discover what goes into making it happen. 1. Can you briefly tell us about St+art project? Since when is this active and what do you do exactly in this project? 2. What is the importance of murals in society? How and what changes happen once a city scape has some murals / paint over it; as per your understanding? 3. Does Art need to be site specific? Can you tell us how do you pick your canvas? 4. Since these artworks are always out in there, as a Festival Director, how have you manage a balance between creativity (freedom of art) and limitations of being a public artwork? 5. If we can safely say, St+Art India is an act of improving urban aesthetic, we are still a long way to go. How long will it take in India? What’s your idea of a aesthetically beautiful surrounding?
