Abstract:
Abstract During the 18th century, Faizābād and Lucknow became strategic centres of painting production in Northern India. Encouraged by the patronage of European collectors, but most probably by unnamed Indian patrons as well, the region experienced an intense period marked by the large number of albums and paintings in circulation. Based on the in-depth analysis of a selection of albums, paintings, and manuscripts, this article aims to highlight the evolution of compilation practices and painting productions. Full-page flower paintings, in particular, became increasingly popular in muraqqaʿ, to the point where calligraphic panels were completely replaced by colourful plants. Floral designs also appear in the margins, and the repetition of motives and patterns on several pages of different dimensions revealed an extensive commercialization based on a standardized production. In addition, the collections of European collectors such as Antoine-Louis Polier and Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Gentil bear the traces of commercial transactions between European and Indian collectors, as well as prices and possession marks. Together with their writings, correspondences, and memoirs, they bring new information on previously unknown Indian collectors, and more generally on the dynamism of the 18th-century book market.

Abstract:
This study aimed to assess community perceptions towards invasion of Prosopis juliflora, utilization, and its control options in Afar region, Northern Ethiopia. Using purposive sampling and stratified random methods, 20 members of key informants and 154 households from four sites of Awash Fentale and Amibara Districts were selected. For data analysis, we used Kruskal Wallis non-parametric tests of K independent samples. About 30% of respondents in Amibara and 29% in Awash Fentale reported that Prosopis juliflora was largely introduced into their landscape by livestock. It showed that 29% of the respondents in Awash Fentale and 41% in Amibara responded that Prosopis juliflora largely invaded and affected rangelands. Morevover, about 1% of respondents in Awash Fentale and 14% in Amibara argued that Prosopis juliflora hindered movements of livestock. In addition, 30% of respondents in Amibara and 29% in Awash Fentale believe that Prosopis juliflora was largely dispersed by livestock. It showed that 20% of households in Awash Fentale and 41% in Amibara have the notion that Prosopis juliflora majorly impacted rangelands. Whereas 1.3% of respondents in Awash Fentale and 14% in Amibara argued that Prosopis juliflora have hampered the movement of livestock. Thus, the afromentioned findings are implications for management of rangelands. With regard to the control of Prosopis juliflora invasions, 12% of respondents in Awash Fentale and 33% in Amibara District tried control its expansion by fire. About 10% of respondents in Awash Fentale and 9% in Amibara district managed Prosopis juliflora expansion by its utilization, whereas, in Awash Fentale (11%) and Amibara (8%) households indicated that invasion of Prosopis juliflora could be controlled by mechanical methods. It is advisable to do some managerial work to reverse these impacts as perceived by local communities in the study area to avert the aggressive proliferation of Prosopis juliflora in the region.

Abstract:
Microwave remote sensing instrument like Soil Moisture Active Passive ranging from 1 cm to 1 m has provided spatial soil moisture information over the entire globe. However, Soil Moisture Active Passive satellite soil moisture products have a coarse spatial resolution (36km x 36km), limiting its application at the basin scale. This research, subsequently plans to; (1) Evaluate the capability of SAR for the retrieval of surface roughness variables in the Awash River basin; (2) Measure the performance of Random Forest (RF) regression model to downscale SMAP satellite soil moisture over the Awash River basin; (3) validate downscaled soil moisture data with In-situ measurements in the river basin. Random Forest (RF) based downscaling approach was applied to downscale satellite-based soil moisture product (36km x 36km) to fine resolution (1km x 1km). Fine spatial resolution (1km) soil moisture data for the Awash River basin was generated. The downscaled soil moisture product also has a strong spatial correlation with the original one, allowing it to deliver more soil moisture information than the original one. In-situ soil moisture and downscaled soil moisture had a 0.69 Pearson correlation value, compared to a 0.53 correlation between the original and In-situ soil moisture. In-situ soil moisture measurements were obtained from the Middle and Upper Awash sub-basins for validation purposes. In the case of Upper Awash, downscaled soil moisture shows a variation of 0.07 cm3 /cm3, -0.036 cm3 /cm3, and 0.112 cm3 /cm3 with Root Mean Square Error, Bias error, and Unbiased Root Mean Square Error respectively. Following that, the accuracy of downscaled soil moisture against the Middle Awash Sub-basin reveals a variance of 0.1320 cm3 /cm3, -0.033 cm3 /cm3, and 0.148 cm3 /cm3 with Root Mean Square Error, Bias error, and Unbiased Root Mean Square Error respectively. Future studies should take into account the temporal domain of Soil Moisture Active Passive satellite soil moisture product downscaling over the study region.

Abstract:
Introduction: Cholera has remained as one of the important public health problems in Asia and Africa causing substantial morbidity and mortality. Although the burden is greatest in low-income populations with poor access to safe water, and sanitation, cholera is also an important health problem globally. Cholera occurs both as a short outbreak and protracted epidemic/pandemic and when uncontrolled; is devastating to communities and to their prospects for development. To respond quickly and control the outbreak, investigation is crucial; identify risk factors that cause the outbreak, and suggest prevention and control measures. Objective: To identify risk factors and etiology of diarrheal disease outbreak and suggest prevention and control measures in Mille woreda, Afar region Ethiopia, May- June, 2018. Method: Descriptive followed by unmatched case-control study with 1:2 ratio were conducted from May-June 2018. A total of 68 patients and 136 controls were enrolled. A structured interviewer-administered questionnaire was used and medical records and line lists review. Simple random sampling was used to select controls and the first 68 cases. Data were analyzed by SPSS and presented using odd ratio, and tables. Environmental and patient samples were collected for culture and rapid diagnostic test. Result: The investigation identified 229 cholera patients, including 22 rapid diagnostic test confirmed patients and seven culture confirmed patients (attack rate: 8.31%, 229/27,562). Index patient were imported from epi-linked woreda. Diglena geraro kebele were the Epicenter of the outbreak. Epicure trend shows common source infection. Using bifurcation of Awash River for drinking, use untreated/ uncoiled water, poor hand washing practices, and close contact with cholera sick person were found to be associated with cholera. Conclusion: This outbreak was caused by vibrio cholera 01 secondary to drinking water from a bifurcation of Awash River and using untreated water. Contact with diseased person, and use untreated/ uncoiled water was associated with being patients. In order to reduce the risk of cholera, safe drinking water or water treatment chemicals needs to be provided to communities.

Abstract:
“To tell the history of the Caribbean is to tell the history of the world," write Laurent Dubois and Richard Lee Turits. In this powerful and expansive story of the vast archipelago, Dubois and Turits chronicle how the Caribbean has been at the heart of modern contests between slavery and freedom, racism and equality, and empire and independence. From the emergence of racial slavery and European colonialism in the early sixteenth century to U.S. annexations and military occupations in the twentieth, systems of exploitation and imperial control have haunted the region. Yet the Caribbean is also where empires have been overthrown, slavery was first defeated, and the most dramatic revolutions triumphed. Caribbean peoples have never stopped imagining and pursuing new forms of liberty. Dubois and Turits reveal how the region’s most vital transformations have been ignited in the conflicts over competing visions of land. While the powerful sought a Caribbean awash in plantations for the benefit of the few, countless others anchored their quest for freedom in small-farming and counter-plantation economies, at times succeeding against all odds. Caribbean realities to this day are rooted in this long and illuminating history of struggle.

Abstract:
Moving beyond the existing scholarship on language politics in north India which implicitly or explicitly focuses on Hindi–Urdu debates, this book examines the formation of the Maithili movement in the context of expansion of Hindi as the ‘national’ language. For a long time, the Hindi–Urdu debate has provided an important source to critically asses various facets of the nationalist movement in north India. But much emphasis on this debate has undermined simultaneous developments taking place in ‘minor’ linguistic spheres within the ‘Hindi heartland’ like Maithili, Braj, Awadhi, and Bhojpuri. This work also revisits the dynamic hierarchy through which a distinction is produced between ‘major’ and ‘minor’ languages. Significance of these ‘minor’ linguistic movements lies in the ways through which they resist such domination and appropriations while asserting their own independence. Throughout the history of the Maithili movement, what one finds is not just an opposition to Hindi’s claim of Maithili being its ‘dialect’ or the ambivalent relationship between the two. But more appropriately, one can see a double movement. The authority of Hindi has strengthened within the Maithili-speaking region even when the movement for the recognition of Maithili as an independent language has become more assertive. Another paradox of the Maithili movement has been its increasing politicization—from Hindi–Maithili ambiguities and antagonisms to territorial consciousness and finally demands for a separate statehood of Mithila, along with the persistent indifferent attitude of the masses. This work examines these processes historically since the middle of the nineteenth century until the inclusion of Maithili into the eighth schedule of the Indian Constitution in 2004.

Abstract This chapter sets out the located and multilingual approach to literary history employed in the book. It outlines the geographical and historical scope of the book and traces the changing political boundaries of Purab (East), the region east of Delhi in the Gangetic plain of northern India later better known as Awadh, from the fifteenth to the twentieth centuries. The presence of many small towns (qasbas), which were administrative, economic, and cultural nodes, but no capital city until the eighteenth century marks the decentered character of the region. The chapter also makes a case that the multilingual approach “from the ground up” employed in this book can help produce a richer and more textured take on world literature.

Abstract:
Abstract What does it mean to be a cosmopolitan in a small, provincial town or court? This chapter examines poetic education and poetic practices in the production and reproduction of social and cultural distinction for local elites in the qasbas and mud forts of Awadh, whether in Persian or in the cosmopolitan vernacular of Brajbhasha. Several authors indicate that their education was multilingual, but the chapter argues that, in order to display mastery over the poetic codes of the different languages, these local cosmopolitans kept these languages and poetic codes quite separate, unlike the Sants. Being a local cosmopolitan also involved inscribing one’s family, small town, or patron within cosmopolitan codes and maps. The chapter ends by arguing that the boom of Urdu poetry in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, which made the regional kingdom of Awadh and its capital, Lucknow, an Urdu cultural center, has obliterated memories of the older Persian-Brajbhasha elite poetic culture.

Abstract:
This chapter explains the decades-long fight to overturn Trujillo’s dictatorship and considers in some detail the 1950s, a turbulent period when reformers, many of them in exile, pooled their limited resources to make common cause with the region’s remaining democracies. Trujillo hounded dissidents relentlessly in the diaspora and purposefully destabilized democratic governments who aided his political enemies. To elude Trujillista aggression, stateless Dominican refugees were continually on the move, forced to seek out one safe haven after another. The exiles’ best-laid plans to oust the tyrant often foundered in the maelstrom of regional politics. The entire Caribbean littoral was awash in political intrigues, rivalries, and undeclared border wars, and policymakers in Washington were often stymied in their efforts to get reformers and dictators to stand down. The Dominican case, then, is emblematic of the enduring transnational struggle to overcome dictatorial rule, while it illustrates the great lengths tyrants went to remain in power.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the language politics in India specifically that of the ‘Hindi heartland’ as it evolved during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It discusses the processes that led to subordinations and appropriations of other languages in the region. Thus, it seeks to interrogate the ways through which these other languages became merely as ‘dialects’ or ‘varieties’ of Hindi. It also needs to be stressed that language and dialects’ inter-relationship remains a highly problematic and contentious issue in the ‘Hindi heartland’. Many linguistic communities like Maithili and Bhojpuri had to struggle for the recognition of their respective languages as independent and distinct from Hindi. Other literary rich and more cultivated languages like Braj or Awadhi became ‘varieties’ of modern Hindi. Maithili is now recognized as a modern Indian language but many other languages in the region including Bhojpuri are still struggling for such recognition. In this chapter, I have argued that the studies of vernacular politics may lead to deeper understanding of the contentious trajectories of modernity and nationalist imaginations in modern India.

Chapter 7 shows how so-called New Democrat Bill Clinton seized upon the stranger danger myth and hitched it to his racialized “law and order” and “family values” policy programs. As president, Clinton underwrote the passage of the Jacob Wetterling Act, the federal “three strikes” law, and Megan’s Law, which together federalized systems of sex offender registration and community notification. Imprinted with the names of white child-victims and awash in the imagery of endangered childhood, these laws enlarged and formalized the child safety regime, thus augmenting a carceral and surveillance state that disproportionately ensnares queer Americans, people of color, and youth.

Abstract:
Abstract Historians cannot be certain when the first sailing ships from India and China began making regular visits to the lands of Southeast Asia, but around 2,000 years ago tales of such expeditions were becoming common in India, offering information about strange and exotic lands such as Yavadvipa, an island said to be awash in silver and gold. The Ramayana (“Story of Rama”), an ornate Indian epic poem written some 2,500 or more years ago, but probably revised several times by the first century ce, mentions this island. Another ancient Indian book, the Vayu Parana, describes it as “full of varieties of flowers and fruits. . . . There are . . . towns where live men and women in happiness.[It is full] of mines of precious stones and gold, besides sandalwood. . . . It is a veritable paradise.” Scholars debate whether Yavadvipa refers to Java, Sumatra, or perhaps Borneo. The Indian adventurers reaching the region were chiefly merchants in search of wealth, and commerce fills their stories.

Abstract:
The Croatian islands make the second-largest archipelago in the Mediterranean. There are 1244 islands (78 islands, 524 islets, and 642 rocks and rocks awash) that are situated in a range of 450 km along the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. The total area covers 3300 km2 (about 5.8 % of Croatian mainland territory) and the length of their coast is 4057 km. Twenty of these islands occupy an area larger than 20 km2 each, and the other 58 ones have a surface from 1 km2 to 20 km2. There are 47 islands that are permanently inhabited. Administratively, islands belong to seven coastal counties and 51 island towns/municipalities. Several small islands are in the jurisdiction of seven coastal cities. By the Constitution, islands are considered as a region of special protection and unique value. Islands specificities require development policy that takes account of demographic, economic, environmental, and other island issues. In the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic, island development policy becomes even more challenging and complex. This paper aims to analyse the attitudes and perceptions of the islanders about the living conditions on the island and the impact of public policies on island development. Identifying the problems from the local perspective helps us to evaluate the success of island development policy. Effective island policy increases the quality of life of the islanders while respecting island specifics. For this purpose, the results of a survey conducted on a sample of the inhabitants of Croatian islands conducted in 2020 are used. The surveys were conducted using the online tool LimeSurvey. The results indicate that 42 percent of the islanders think that living conditions on the islands are not improving. Most of the islanders think that government policy does not encourage island development. The paper also identifies factors that are responsible for differences in attitudes and perceptions of islanders.
