The book “Memories in the Service of the Hindu Nation: The Afterlife of the Partition” by anthropologist Dr. Pranav Kohli presents the findings of an extensive ethnographic study conducted over fourteen months, focusing on survivors of the Partition from west Punjab and the North-West Frontier Province. The research was conducted in Delhi and its surroundings between 2017 and 2018. The author explores the connection between the global rise of far-right nationalism, the process of globalization, and the memories of victimhood. Specifically, the book delves into Hindu nationalism in India, shedding light on the tragic consequences that can arise from a history of trauma. The central question posed by the book and this conversation with Pranav Kohli and writer, researcher and lawyer Prannv Dhawan is: "What does it mean to remember the Partition in the time of fascism?" Kohli and Dhawan discuss the experiences of displacement and everyday violence resulting from the political policies of Partition, drawing relevance to the current global context of forced displacement across national borders. Through an analysis of trauma reincription in Partition memories and its correlation to the justifications of contemporary Hindu nationalist violence, Kohli elucidates the cycles of violence and the ways in which Hindu nationalism shapes the narratives of Hindu Partition survivors. By examining the deployment of memory to reinforce notions of national belonging and exclusion, Kohli contributes to the understanding of the increasing xenophobia in multicultural democracies. The book addresses the perplexing phenomenon of how "mob" violence can be attributed to outsiders without individuals recalling or acknowledging their own acts of violence. In this episode of BIC Talks Dhawan speaks to Kohli about his analysis, linking memory, sacrifice, and theodicy, offering a novel conceptual lens to connect the Partition of India in 1947 with contemporary homegrown Hindu fascism and provides thought-provoking ground work to anthropologists studying religion, nationalism, and memory, as well as researchers focusing on modern Indian cultural politics.

Na svete existuje množstvo rôznych kultúr a vďaka migrácii sa ľudia z rôznych kultúr môžu stretnúť na jednom mieste. Hoci niektorí túto zmenu vnímajú pozitívne a vítajú, že sa môžu dozvedieť o iných niečo nové, niektorí zastávajú negatívny postoj. Môže za to najmä predsudky. Niektorým kultúram sa totiž pripisuje viacero násilností či bezohľadného správania. Aj Slovensko je v tomto smere veľmi konzervatívne. Nenávisť k iným kultúram môže byť veľmi negatívne a extrémnych prípadoch viesť až k xenofóbii či rasizme. Chceš o multikultúrnej spoločnosti vedieť viac? Pozri si náš nový podcast.

Dr Céline Benoit, a senior teaching fellow in sociology and policy at Aston University, says school nativity plays have a secure future – because children love them, and they are more of a cultural than a religious performance. But her research indicates that schoolchildren need more of a say on the future of religious education.
Parents sometimes find it challenging to navigate different ideas and beliefs contrary to their own beliefs while nurturing their children in a multicultural society. Prof Manisha Pathak-Shelat, the author of 'Raising a Humanist', believes that there is more to unlearn for parents while teaching children to respect different cultures and values. - વિદેશમાં સ્થાયી માતા-પિતાને ધણી વખત તેમના બાળકોના ઉછેર દરમિયાન સામાજિક માન્યતાઓ અને વિચારધારા સાથે તાલમેલ મેળવવામાં મુશ્કેલી પડે છે. માતા-પિતા કેવી રીતે અન્ય સંસ્કૃતિ અને તેની માન્યતાઓને સન્માન આપીને બાળકોનો વધુ યોગ્ય રીતે ઉછેર કરી શકે તે વિશે માહિતી આપી રહ્યા છે 'Raising a Humanist' પુસ્તકના લેખિકા પ્રોફેસર મનિષા પાઠક - શેલત.

Professor Yehuda’s TEAM-CBT Israeli Initiative! Today’s podcast is the latest in a series Rhonda has created featuring people who are doing interesting and creative things with TEAM-CBT. In today’s episode, we feature Yehuda Bar-Shalom, D.H.L, TEAM CBT level 4 trainer and therapist, who will teach us all about the use of TEAM in the school system. Yehuda, who is an associate professor appointed by the Council of higher education in Israel, is the first person we know to teach TEAM to school counselors in a practical way. (We also refer you to our podcast episode 152 where we interviewed Amy Spector, MFT, who is a TEAM therapist providing TEAM therapy to “at-risk” teen-agers at a high school in the San Francisco Bay Area.) Yehuda is an educator, psychotherapist and researcher. He has served as president of Hebraica University in Mexico City, the only Jewish University in Latin America which is open to students of all religious faiths. When he became the president of Hebraica University, he adapted the psychology and wellbeing department so that it became a training program for TEAM therapists. When he returned to Israel in 2020, Yehuda’s former student Victoria Chicurel, and several others, continued the Mexico TEAM training program. Yehuda has authored seven books and almost 70 academic articles on education and society, with a focus on Jewish education, social entrepreneurship and consulting in psycho-educational settings, mostly from a CBT perspective. He has been the Vice President of the David Yellin College in Jerusalem, and the Dean of Education at the Ono Academic College. His book, Educating Israel: Educational Entrepreneurship in Israel’s Multicultural Society was published in 2006. Yehuda is married to Amira Bar Shalom, and has three children. Yehuda, who in his professional life is both a therapist, educator, and researcher, earned his doctorate in education in 1997, conducting research on applying Bion’s theory in group work with adolescents. When he was teaching school counselors, he realized he wanted to become a counselor, so, 20 years after earning his research doctorate, he went back to school and earned a Master’s degree in school counseling, and later another Master degree in the treatment of addictions. He also studied for a two-year certificate in cognitive behavioral therapy at the Psagot Institute, where he met Maor Katz, MD, Director of the Feeling Good Institute, and one of the Psagot instructors who taught TEAM therapy. Yehuda also learned about TEAM therapy by listening to the Feeling Good Podcasts. When he started listening, he thought TEAM therapy was “like a miracle.” Yehuda then attended several of David’s TEAM training workshops, as well as on-line trainings sponsored by the Feeling Good Institute (FGI). He has also studied one-on-one with Level 5 TEAM therapist, Daniel Minte. Yehuda currently teaches at a master’s level training program for school counselors at the Ramat Gan College in Israel. He is committed to teaching TEAM to school counselors for many reasons. One is that using TEAM provides school counselors with an immediate way to create a fast connection to students. In addition, TEAM can more quickly help students who are struggling with their moods, behaviors, relationships, or habits and addictions. Yehuda emphasizes the importance of T = Testing for the school counselors, and teaches them how it helps create empathy. For example, the school counselor might say this to a new student, “Oh, I see your score on anger is such and such. Tell me about that.” Yehuda explained that school counselors are like primary care physicians. They have the immediate pulse on the student’s needs and feelings. He is training the school counselors to speak with their students using the Five Secrets of Effective Communication. He also shows the counselors how to teach the Five Secrets, so their students can use this tool in their lives. He gave an example of how a school counselor might use the Disarming Technique when interacting with a child who feels angry and wants to escape. The counselor might say, “Wow, I can see that you’re feeling really angry about being sent to me for counseling and that you want to escape! I want to escape, too!” Then the child feels understood and opens up. Yehuda is also teaching the school counselors how to identify their own distorted negative thoughts, and how to positively reframe and challenge them. Once the counselors learn these skills for themselves, they can teach them to their students so that the students can learn to challenge their own distorted thoughts. The school counselors are also learning the use of paradox, so prominent in TEAM therapy, in order to help them understand their students’ motivations about why they feel and act the way they do, and how their understanding of their students’ motivations can lead to the change. The school counselors Yehuda trains are often quite skeptical and don’t believe him or David, which is understandable. He encourages them to maintain their skepticism but do an experiment and try these tools so they can see what happens. They are often pleasantly surprised by the results. Yehuda describes the counselors he trains as humble, down-to-earth, and hungry to master new techniques that can boost their effectiveness when working with troubled students.

Multicultural society in Norway: Political Bark podcast in conversation with novelist Ole-Asbjørn Ness In this episode of Political Bark podcast, host Sophie Matláry has invited Norwegian novelist Ole-Asbjørn Ness to discuss the topic of “Multicultural society in Norway in 2020”. In fact, this topic is very relevant right now. These times are extremely challenging for multicultural societies - such as in light of recent events in Francis, where a whole nation is preparing to re-define the concept of a multicultural France, and what that entails In Norway, we are luckily far from facing the same challenges, but we are however still needing to make some changes to our societies. That is why this episode of Political Bark especially analyzes the existing multicultural model in Norway. As Ole-Asbjørn Ness comments in the episode “in Norway, we pretend that anyone can be of any identity and religion and still be Norwegian, and still integrate. That is however not the case, as the examples of people used to prove this point, are always those that have more or leas taken on all the secular Norwegian values. People such as politicians Abi Raja or Hadia Tajik”. In fact, Ness points out the apparent hypocrite dimension of our current model, a topic that has never really been discussed openly before.

“Any concept -- capitalism, neoliberalism, etc. -- leaves an excess that it is the aim of anthropology to unearth. These are spaces that are not dominated by whatever's dominating at a specific time. So there are existing alternatives, there are not just Subscribe on imaginary alternatives.... Anthropology in this sense does provide the possibility of thinking of alternatives. There are ways of living that you can build on, that are not aligned with the dominant ways of being.” Ghassan Hage, the Future Generation Professor of Anthropology and Social Theory at the University of Melbourne, sat down with our own Simon Theobald to talk about the everyday work of being a public, radical, and engaged intellectual. Their conversation covers dealing with the press, navigating the neoliberal university, and engaging with a hostile and truculent public, plus how anthropology reveals alternative ways of existence that already exist in the real world. This episode was recorded at the 2017 AAS conference at the University of Adelaide, on the traditional lands of the Kaurna people. Find Professor Hage's work on his Academia page (http://unimelb.academia.edu/GhassanHage) or his blog, Hage Ba'a (http://hageba2a.blogspot.com.au/) QUOTES There's an almost naive theory that circulates in university bureaucracy about external engagement... that you teach students so therefore you can teach other people, the general public. However the problem with this is that today, many in the general public will not treat you with respect. It's not that they think your ideas are too complex. It's that people actually think you're the enemy, an elite. So it's become, how do you talk to the enemy? If you are an intellectual — not just an academic, an intellectual, that is, someone who wants to think independently, who wants to be active etc — today, you have to do it against the university. You don't do it with the help of the university. If all you know how to do is sit down and whinge and criticize neoliberalism, I don't think you want to be an academic. But you don't want to NOT criticize neoliberalism. Nothing totally homogenizes space. You talk about neoliberalism, you talk about the dominance of neoliberalism, that does not mean that every single crack in society is neoliberal. A lot social analysis assumes that the object is analytically dead. Maybe not socially dead, but analytically dead. That is, they're not capable of analyzing themselves, or if they are analyzing themselves, it's naive, and let me come give you the seriously hard analysis… What happens when you start saying, “Well, what if indigenous thought can analyse us?” Indigenous people are not sitting around waiting for anthropologists to come and analyse what they're thinking. They can do this for themselves very well. So the question now is more, “Can we enrich our analytical stock so that we can understand ourselves better?” CITATIONS Charbonnier, Pierre, Gildas Salmon and Peter Skafish, eds.,2016, Comparative Metaphysics: Ontology After Anthropology, Rowman & Littlefield, London, New York.
