Abstract:
This paper aims to review the varieties of Tharu anthropological writings in Nepal. It is clear that the basic notion of reviewing any area study is to pave the way for further studies as it reveals the departure and gap from previous study. At this backdrop, the review on anthropological study of Tharu in Nepali socio-cultural context discusses how the writings dealing with the Tharus community seem helpful for opening the way to further studies in this area of ethnicity with multidisciplinary approaches, such as, cultural studies, linguistics, literature, demography, history, folklore, sociology, arts and crafts and ethnography. At the same time, it also enhances to comprehend varied subgroups of Tharus in Nepal, for instances, Dangaura, Rana, Kochila, Chitwaniya and Desaura. Moreover, the present research on Tharus is comparatively more focused on anthropological study rather than other disciplines, such as, folklore, ethno-music and literature, sociology, cultural studies, linguistics, ethno-history and demography. Regarding the Tharu anthropological research, this study is an attempt to portray the huge possibility of further ethnic studies, particularly on many subgroups of Tharus in Nepali territory.

Abstract:
This research analyzed the situation of sharecroppers and their food sufficiency level in forty Tharu community households in Dumraha village of Sunsari. Household interviews, focus group discussions, key informants survey and observations are led to fulfill the research objective. Among ninety-one landless sharecroppers forty households were selected for the study applying the equation. The landlessness Tharu people are compelled to do agriculture or non-agriculture labor besides farming. The Tharu communities are engaged as sharecropper to face the challenges of food self-sufficiency. Some of the sharecroppers are found to be the previous owner of the land. The practice of sharecropping is fully based on mutual relationship between landlord and sharecroppers, where they agree in sharing the output equally. Sharecropping has helped the landless Tharus to be food self sufficient. Nepalese Journal of Development and Rural StudiesVol. 14 (Joint issue) (1&2), 2017, Page: 36-42

Abstract:
The major objective of this paper is to analyze the historical context of the Dangaura Tharu folk dances of Nepal. The study discusses the Tharu subjectivity by assessing the performance as an agency. The primary discussion is based on the issue of Kamaiyahood in the songs narrated during the dance of the community. Dangaura Tharu ethnicity resides across five Tarai districts of Nepal: Dang, Banke, Bardiya, Kailali and Kanchanpur. This study is to identify and evaluate the role of memory in the folk performance of the community. It concludes by justifying the abundance of Kamaiyahood, spatial memory and empathy for nature in the community's folk performance. To collect the data required for the study, this study has adopted the qualitative research method, using the techniques such as direct observation, interview and relevant documents to understand the performing arts and rituals of the Tharus of Nepal. In addition, to analyze the collected data, Richard Schechner's idea of performance as a fortitude for identity has been applied critically. In addition, Alan Dunde's concept of folklore as the identity has also been considered. Thus, the study finds the memory of displacement inherent in the Tharu folk dance. The spatial memory and the Kamaiyahood appear as the dominant motifs in Dangaura Tharu folk performance. Since the dance of the community comprises the songs, reflecting the symbols and their meanings of the dances, for each dance has been critically analyzed in the paper.

Abstract:
This article studies the challenges of modernity in Tharu people’s way of life and how successfully they have sustained to maintain aesthetics of ethnicity coping together with modernity. The scholarly discussion of the impact of ritual performances of Tharu people to identify themselves in the national and international domain through the socio-cultural aspect of homestays provides us insight into how Tharus have become successful in preserving the memory of identity through cultural heritage. This study confines its approach within the Bhada village of Kailali district. It examines the progressive changes institutionalized after the homestay programmes in socio-cultural development of Tharu people’s cultural performances facing urbanization. Homestay programmes in the Tharu village of Kailali district have accelerated their financial advancement chiefly by their exceptionally distinct social-cultural legacies of rituals and performances. With the assistance of various exploration reports, it essentially analyzes the part of social execution like dance melodies among Tharu people to bear the progressions for economic exercises and vocation. With the assistance of Devkota and Bhattarai’s notion of homestays and rural development, the paper legitimizes the imminent practical development in the indigenous community by analyzing the issues from culture to modernity.

Abstract:
Introduction: Cephalic index is an important parameter for differentiation of race and sex which varies significantly on the basis of hereditary, geographical, racial, sexual and other factors. It is a morphometric expression of different forms of head. The objective of this research was to evaluate the cephalic index of people of indigenous Tharu community of Biratnagar, Nepal and to determine different head types. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in which maximum head length and breadth of 100 adult Tharu people living in Biratnagar were measured using spreading caliper and scale. The cephalic index was obtained from these values using Hrdlicka’s method. Results: The mean cephalic index of the study population was 75.99±4.97. The mean cephalic indices of males and females were 76.22±5.14 and 75.78±4.85 respectively. The most common head type observed was dolichocephalic type 47 (47%). It was followed by mesocephalic type 37 (37%), brachycephalic type 13 (13%) was less common and least common was hyperbrachycephalic type 3 (3%). Conclusions: Long head (dolichocephalic) type is more common in Tharu population in both the genders, whereas, broad head (brachycephalic and hyperbrachycephalic) type is present in very few people.

This death ritual is organized only after the death of the family member. In this ritual, a dummy prepared for the deceased person and the relatives of the deceased mourns for the night assuming dummy as the corpse of deceased person. The various social-cultural institution, traditions and practices followed by the Rana Tharus have developed social solidarity and cooperation among the Rana Tharus and have functioned properly for the maintenance of the livelihood of the Rana Tharus. The performance of life cycle rituals among the Rana Tharus has become a structure and system among them and is becoming an instrument of identity construction.

This study reported thirty-seven useful plant species under 25 families. In total 37 species, 25 were recorded as medicinal plant, used to treat pneumonia, menstrual disorder, stones, piles, skin disease etc. Other plant species were used for food, fodder, timber, fiber and ceremonial/ religious activities. Most plant species (78.3%) were having multiple use value, and kept under more than one use category and few species (21.7%) with single use category. Trees (27.02%) and herbs (27.02%), both were dominant over grass, shrubs, climbers and creepers. This study has revealed that many plants species are being used by Tharu community of Eastern Nepal as their ethnic plants for medicine, food, fodder, ornament, material etc which needs to be more explored.

Full text
Abstract:
This research explores the indigenous conflict resolution processes practiced by the Tharu community living in Nepal’s Bara, Dang and Bardiya districts, the role of Tharu traditions and customs, and the function of the Barghar-Mukhiya. Due to geographic and monetary challenges experienced by the Tharu accessing Nepal’s formal justice system, they continue to serve as a viable and vibrant vehicle for resolving minor and major conflicts at the community level and form the basis of researcher’s Barghar-Mukhiya model. Shaped by Tharu collectivist culture and traditions, it supports the social fabric of the community. Utilizing qualitative case study methodology, this research assesses important aspects of the Barghar-Mukhiya model, processes and impact. Primary data sources include individual and focus group interviews, and researcher observations; and, secondary sources include document collections and archival material. Research findings explore six emergent themes: Rituals/Festivals, Inclusion/Dialogue, Identity/Security, Structure/Barghar-Mukhiya, Process/Reconciliation Processes, and Participation/Acceptance. This model is assessed for strengths and challenges. Where it is practiced, it continues to help maintain community harmony and peace. The model’s core of restorative practices, forgiveness, reconciliation, consensus-based decision-making, and use of dialogue circles is instrumental in transforming conflicts. This research contributes to the field of peace and conflict studies, providing analysis of an indigenous model that strives to reach a balance between traditional beliefs and the modern judicial system.

This thesis takes Kio-A-Thau Sugar Refinery as a case to highlight the achievements of Kio-A-Thau Culture and History Organization, which has devoted to community renaissance for decades. In the process of designating Kio-A-Thau Sugar Refinery as cultural heritage for Kio-A-Thau community different thoughts and events were tangled. Kio-A-Thau Sugar Refinery was intimately connected to local history and culture, as Kio-A-Thau Culture and History Organization argues, characterized in “sugar culture”. Industrial ruin converted to museum and also theme park were among the proposals changing Sugar Refinery when it shuts down. This thesis has twofold focuses. First, it discusses how the members of Kio-A-Thau Culture Society has integrated community residents and mobilized local resources to achieve their goals, that is, preserving Sugar Refinery to be cultural heritage. Secondly, it explores the identification the residents had attached to the reconstruction of Kio-A-Thau Sugar Refinery when they participated. To conclude, it shows the conflicts and struggles among various agents in forming local identity. Community is always an arena in which different voices compete.

This chapter examines the economic and political factors that contributed to the building of black McDonald’s ownership in Chicago. Urban violence, Black Power movement ideologies about economic self-determination, and community demands for socially responsible businesses in the inner city undergirded McDonald’s approach to winning over black customers. Herman Petty, the owner of the first black-owned McDonald’s franchise in Chicago, later helped organize the National Black McDonalds Operators Association (BMOA). The BMOA created a space for black operators to leverage their collective power within McDonald’s and to serve as leaders in the predominately black and working class communities that supported their restaurants.

Abstract:
The State of Ceará, located in the Brazilian Northeast, has a high tourist potential due to the beauty of its beaches and the great geomorphological differences within the territory. In addition, there are warm winds that allow the practice of wind sports throughout the state seacoast. This chapter presents three categories of analysis here interrelated with planning: wind sports, the use of social projects to improve the tourist experience, and the participation of the local community in social projects. The main objective of this chapter is to present innovations that might be implemented with the creation of a tourist route based on existing structures in the state of Ceará. The focus is to use the attractiveness of extreme wind sports linked to social responsibility (NGOs) and the strengthening of the tourist image. This chapter presents the social projects that relate tourism, social projects, and planning. Thru this job, the authors hope to give light to other destinations, which might perform the practice of benchmarking to face similar problems.

Chapter 3 explores how queer country musicians engage the themes of journey across North America and journey to discover self that are part of the mythology and history of country music, as well as themes that describe gender and sexuality as a journey. It also examines the importance of rurality and its presentations of community and self as grounded, connected, and organic. In navigating these themes, queer country musicians also bring up contemporary trans and queer political issues, including “the trans narrative” (the idea that all transgender people’s experiences follow a certain journey) and marginalized people’s assimilation versus revolution. The chapter explores the country music of Amy Ray (of the Indigo Girls), Rae Spoon’s “Keep the Engine Running” and “A Message from the Queer Trans Prairie Tourism Co.,” Actor Slash Model’s “TN Tranny Two-Step,” Joe Stevens’s musical career, and the soundtrack of the film Transamerica, including Dolly Parton’s Oscar-nominated song, “Travelin’ Thru.” Transamerica crafts a transgender character’s identity through a country music soundtrack that humanizes her character after a century of cruel trans stereotypes in film yet uses her whiteness against other characters’ racialized otherness.

In navigating these themes, queer country musicians also bring up contemporary trans and queer political issues, including “the trans narrative” (the idea that all transgender people’s experiences follow a certain journey) and marginalized people’s assimilation versus revolution. The chapter explores the country music of Amy Ray (of the Indigo Girls), Rae Spoon’s “Keep the Engine Running” and “A Message from the Queer Trans Prairie Tourism Co.,” Actor Slash Model’s “TN Tranny Two-Step,” Joe Stevens’s musical career, and the soundtrack of the film Transamerica, including Dolly Parton’s Oscar-nominated song, “Travelin’ Thru.” Transamerica crafts a transgender character’s identity through a country music soundtrack that humanizes her character after a century of cruel trans stereotypes in film yet uses her whiteness against other characters’ racialized otherness.

Abstract:
This report presents the results of a mixed-methods study of the 2020-2022 Oakland Slow Streets program. An official response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the program used signs and temporary barricades to limit thru-traffic on 21 miles of city streets to create more and safer space for walking, cycling, and outdoor recreation. Researchers collected data throughout the summer of 2021 on seven designated slow streets plus one cross street and one control street for each – a total of 21 street segments representing conditions in seven different neighborhoods across Oakland. Data collection comprised in-person passerby counts, observations and photographs of local conditions, and logged traffic speed data. Findings vary widely across study sites. In certain cases, observed slow streets saw less car traffic or more bicycle/pedestrian use than one or both of their comparison streets, and in at least one case the slow street was clearly embraced by the local community and used as planners intended; in others the slow street was no different than neighboring streets. The study draws on these findings to identify local conditions that seem likely to make slow treet treatments more or less successful. However, acknowledging that all neighborhoods deserve safer streets and greater outdoor recreational opportunities, the authors argue that better community outreach must be implemented to ensure areas not predisposed to make full use of slow streets can have the opportunity to do so. The study also makes suggestions regarding the potential for rapid, low-cost bike and pedestrian street safety improvements going forward.
