Background: Dignity is seen as an important but complex concept in the healthcare context. In this context, the discussion of dignity includes concepts of other ethical principles such as autonomy and privacy. Patients consider dignity to cover individuality, patient’s feelings, communication, and the behavior of healthcare personnel. However, there is a lack of knowledge concerning the realization of patients’ dignity in hospital care and the focus of the study is therefore on the realization of dignity of the vulnerable group of patients with stroke. Aim: The aim of the study was to create a theoretical construct to describe the dignity realization of patients with stroke in hospital care. Research design and participants: Patients with stroke (n = 16) were interviewed in 2015 using a semi-structured interview containing open questions concerning dignity. The data were analyzed using constant comparison of Grounded Theory. Ethical considerations: Ethical approval for the research was obtained from the Ethics Committee of the University. The permission for the research was given by the hospital. Informed consent was obtained from participants. Findings: The “Theory of Dignity Realization of Patients with Stroke in Hospital Care” consists of a core category including generic elements of the new situation and dignity realization types. The core category was identified as “Dignity in a new situation” and the generic elements as health history, life history, individuality and stroke. Dignity of patients with stroke is realized through specific types of realization: person-related dignity type, control-related dignity type, independence-related dignity type, social-related dignity type, and care-related dignity type. Discussion: The theory has similar elements with the previous literature but the whole construct is new. The theory reveals possible special characteristics in dignity realization of patients with stroke. Conclusion: For healthcare personnel, the theory provides a frame for a better understanding and recognition of how dignity of patients with stroke is realized.

Abstract Human dignity is often cited as a justification and foundation for equality law. However, it is also used in some contexts to justify detracting from equal treatment, including in relation to mandatory retirement ages in the UK. Drawing on interdisciplinary scholarship from legal theory and industrial relations, this article argues case law on retirement ages adopts a limited approach to the notion of ‘dignity’, which is grounded in age stereotypes. It considers how a re-conceptualisation of ‘dignity’ might inform the future development of the law on retirement ages and proposes alternative ways to secure individual dignity in employment that do not depend on mandatory retirement ages.

Nursing home residents are among the most vulnerable members of society. The literature emphasizes promotion of personhood, dignity, and comfort—dimensions that fall within the purview of the certified nursing assistant (CNA). Little is known about how CNAs approach caring for a dying resident. This grounded theory study explored CNA–resident interactions for residents receiving palliative care. The theory “Cultivating Knowing and Relationships” emerged, which represents a social–psychological process of how CNAs capitalize on reciprocity and achievement of gratification to develop personal relationships with residents and maintain personhood and dignity through death. These findings underscore CNAs’ significant role in enhancing quality.

Este ensaio teórico, de natureza descritivo-reflexiva, elaborada durante a investigação acerca da Promoção e Preservação da Dignidade no Contexto de Cuidados em Lares de Idosos, realizada no contexto do Doutoramento em Enfermagem da Universidade de Lisboa, tem o objetivo de apresentar a revisão narrativa e metodológica sobre as origens e evolução da GT, desde a influência fundamental do interacionismo simbólico, do pragmatismo e da Escola de Chicago salientando o momento diacritico na trajetória dos seus autores originais, Barney Glaser e Anselm Strauss, pautado por ideias distintas sobre o processo de recolha e análise de dados e sobre a postura do pesquisador perante o contexto e a própria investigação, que marcará a evolução da metodologia até à atualidade.Palavras-chave: Investigação qualitativa; Grounded Theory; Interacionismo Simbólico. Socio-philosophical roots and evolution of Grounded TheoryAbstract: The Grounded Theory (GT) is a methodology that, from the experiences lived by social actors, and through processes of codification and constant comparison, allows the development of theory. This theoretical essay, of a descriptive-reflexive nature, elaborated during the investigation about the Promotion and Preservation of Dignity in the context of Care in Nursing Homes, carried out in the context of the PhD in Nursing of the University of Lisbon, has the purpose of presenting the narrative and methodological revision on the origins and evolution of the GT, from the fundamental influence of symbolic interactionism, pragmatism and the Chicago School emphasizing the diacritical moment in the trajectory of its original authors, Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss, based on distinct ideas about the process of data collection and analysis and on the researcher's posture before the context and the research, that will mark the evolution of the methodology to date.Keywords: Qualitative research; Grounded Theory; Symbolic Interactionism.

The study explores the management of South Africa’s diverse workforce by analysing the impact of the social values of ubuntu on specific characteristics of team effectiveness. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with African Blacks who are members of successful work teams in a large South African company. The protocols were analysed by applying the methods of grounded theory. A conceptual model based on the canons of grounded theory was developed to explain how the social values of ubuntu could have a positive impact on team effectiveness. The study revealed that traditional African values, although in congruence with many universal ethical values, place more emphasis upon collectivism, collaboration, caring, dignity and respect. It is argued that these values should underlie a value-based leadership style to enhance team performance in modern organisations.

The UK Government published various circulars to indicate the importance of respecting the privacy and dignity of NHS patients following the implementation of the Human Rights Act, 1998. This research used an ethnographic method to determine the extent to which health professionals had in fact upheld the philosophy of these documents. Fieldwork using nonparticipant observation, and unstructured and semistructured interviews with patients and staff, took place over six months in three acute care wards in a large district NHS trust hospital. Applying the principles of phenomenology and grounded theory, the data were analysed and the contents organized into 11 key categories, leading to the formulation of a privacy model. The level of intrusion into patients’ privacy by health professionals was measured against the benchmarking of the ‘dignity and privacy’ factors contained in the Department of Health’s The essence of care document and Article 8(2) of the Human Rights Act. The findings established that patients had little privacy in the wards, and that the terms ‘privacy of the person’ and ‘dignity’ are interrelated.

Texto completoResumen
The aim of this study was to explore the experience of nursing personnel with respect to patient participation in special care units for persons with dementia in nursing homes, with focus on everyday life. The study has an explorative grounded theory design. Eleven nursing personnel were interviewed twice. Patient participation is regarded as being grounded in the idea that being master of one’s own life is essential to the dignity and self-esteem of all people. Patient participation was described at different levels as letting the resident make their own decisions, adjusting the choices, making decisions on behalf of the residents and forcing the residents. The educational level and commitment of the nursing personnel and how often they were on duty impacted the level that each person applied, as did the ability of the residents to make decisions, and organizational conditions, such as care culture, leadership and number of personnel.

Lifestyle is a reflection of the culture and civilization of a society and adherence to moral and social values. The product of this adherence is a system based on those values which, if derived from religious faith, results in a faithful life. The aim of this study is to provide a model for this type of life, which has been done by using narrative data taken from "Muntakhab Mīzān al-Ḥikmah " and by "grounded theory" method. The research findings show that the central category of this model is the faithful lifestyle that ontology, theism believing in resurrection are its causal conditions that are formed in the context of religiosity, faith, piety and good governance. Interventional conditions include: moral, social, economic evils and family injuries. In order to achieve the dignity of this world and the hereafter, which is the output of this model, one must use belief, worship, moral, social, economic and health strategies.

Texto completoResumen
AbstractThis article takes up Louise Arbour's claim that the doctrine of the ‘Responsibility to Protect’ is grounded in existing obligations of international law, specifically those pertaining to the prevention and punishment of genocide. In doing so, it argues that the aspirations of the R2P project cannot be sustained by the idea of ‘responsibility’ alone. The article proceeds in arguing that the coherence of R2P depends on an unacknowledged and unarticulated theory of obligation that connects notions of culpability, blame, and accountability with the kind of preventive, punitive, and restorative action that Arbour and others advocate. Two theories of obligation are then offered, one natural the other conventional, which make this connection explicit. But the ensuing clarity comes at a cost: the naturalist account escapes the ‘real’ world to redeem the intrinsic dignity of all men and women, while the conventionalist account remains firmly tethered to the ‘real’ world in redeeming whatever dignity can be had by way of an agreement. The article concludes by arguing that the advocate of the responsibility to protect can have one or the other, but not both.

A sociedade nos dias de hoje demanda das empresas um comportamento que não esteja exclusivamente voltado para maximização dos lucros a qualquer custo. A ética é um tema que tem permeado as questões dos negócios. Para alguns autores,ética e negócios não se misturam (tese da separação), para outros não existe separação entre ética e negócios. Esta pesquisa considera os aspectos subjetivos e põe foco nos empresários empreendedores e suas interações com stakeholders,considerando a complexidade social em que os negócios se realizam. Neste sentido, consideramos a seguinte questão de pesquisa: como os empresários lidam com dilemas de dignidade na gestão das empresas? O objetivo é compreender como os empresários lidam com dilemas da dignidade na gestão das empresas. A investigação foi conduzida a partir dos procedimentos metodológicos da Teoria Fundamentada nos Dados. Os dados foram coletados baseados em entrevistas com nove empresários considerados empreendedores de empresas estabelecidas analisadas com o apoio do software NVIVO 8. A categoria central que emergiu dos dados foi nomeada como Recompensas do Empreender. Os empresários que apresentaram sensibilidade aos dilemas morais Priorizam Recompensas Simbólicas caracterizadas por prestígio social, satisfação pessoal, exercício do poder pessoal e reconhecimento profissional. Para tal propósito, buscam construir Empresas Dignas e estabelecem estratégias para lidar com dilemas que afetam a dignidade dos stakeholders. Por outro lado, empresários que demonstraram sensibilidade para o dilemas operacionais Priorizam Recompensas Financeiras, buscando com isso a melhoria do padrão de vida familiar e, portanto, construindo empresas lucrativas baseados em ajustes da operação da empresa.

The objective of this study was to understand how social meanings of dignity are built in the relationship between a local community and the companies placed in its geographic area. This is a qualitative research developed by the Constructivist Grounded Theory method. The study, that is exploratory-descriptive, is based the interpretative paradigm of social research. The theoretical perspective that guided the study was the Structural Symbolic Interactionism. The local community chosen for this study was the city of Litoral (fictitious name), located in the state of Espirito Santo. In this town, there are two large companies whose relationship with the community of Litoral has been the object of the present study. We built a substantive theory from 24 interviews with 20 residents, internet content, participant observation,photographic records, official literature of the city and the companies studied and notes in a field diary. The results suggest that the meanings of dignity in the relationship among the informed social actors are built by community members according to how they interpret and evaluate the care present in the conducts of companies towards objects of dignity. In this evaluation process, the community takes into account the interpretation that they make about the benefits and the intentions that underlie the conduct of the companies. This judgement is based on the expectations that the members of the community have about how that relationship should be, what may vary according to the tangibility of the firm in question and the timing of such a judgment. This process of construction of meanings takes place in a space of interactions between people and individuals ans objects. Suggestions for future research and practice are provided.
O objetivo do estudo foi o de compreender como são socialmente construídos os significados de dignidade no âmbito da relação entre uma comunidade de local e as empresas situadas em sua imediação geográfica. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa desenvolvida pelo método da Grounded Theory Construtivista. O estudo, de natureza exploratório-descritiva, se encontra alicerçado no paradigma interpretativo de pesquisa social. A perspectiva teórica que orientou a realização do estudo foi a do Interacionismo Simbólico Estrutural. A comunidade de local escolhida foi a da cidade de Litoral (nome fictício), situada no estado do Espírito Santo. Nessa cidade,encontram-se duas empresas de grande porte cuja relação com a comunidade de Litoral foi objeto do presente estudo. A partir de 24 entrevistas com 20 moradores, conteúdos da internet, observações participantes, registros fotográficos, literatura oficial sobre a cidade e as empresas em questão e anotações no diário de campo foi construída uma teoria substantiva visando o alcance do objetivo determinado. Os resultados sugerem que os significados de dignidade no âmbito da relação entre os atores sociais de interesse nessa pesquisa são construídos pela comunidade de acordo com a forma como seus membros interpretam e avaliam o zelo presente nas condutas empresariais frente a objetos de dignidade. Nesse processo de avaliação, os membros da comunidade levam em consideração sua interpretação a respeito dos benefícios que as condutas empresariais trazem para eles e as intenções que subjazem às ações das organizações. Esse julgamento é baseado nas expectativas que os membros da comunidade possuem a respeito de como deve ser essa relação, o que pode variar de acordo com a tangibilidade da empresa em questão e o momento em que tal julgamento é realizado. Esse processo de construção de significados ocorre em um espaço de interações entre pesssoas e entre indivíduos e objetos. Sugestões para pesquisas futuras e para a prática são apresentadas.

Texto completoResumen
Most modern discussions of human dignity give historical pride of place to Immanuel Kant and his idea that dignity is grounded in human rational agency or autonomy. This chapter challenges this practice by articulating a “second story” about dignity—a story that also unfolded during the Enlightenment, but which grounded dignity in human passionate agency. Thus it is suggested that a range of thinkers, including Rousseau, Adam Smith, and Smith’s French translator, Sophie De Grouchey, all seemed to have inclined in this new direction. However, above all others, this chapter lauds Denis Diderot’s contribution to this second story of human dignity. Correspondingly, the essay culminates in an examination of Diderot’s wide-ranging inquiries into human nature, politics, and social theory.

Texto completoResumen
Communities of respect are communities of people sharing common practices or a (partial) way of life; they include families, clubs, religious groups, and political parties. This book develops a detailed account of such communities in terms of the rational structure of their members’ reactive attitudes, arguing that they are fundamental in three interrelated ways to understanding what it is to be a person. First, it is only by being a member of a community of respect that one can be a responsible agent having dignity; such an agent therefore has certain rights as well as the authority to demand that fellow members recognize her dignity and follow the norms of the community, norms compliance with which they likewise have the authority to demand from her. Second, by prescribing or proscribing both actions and values, communities of respect can shape the identities of its members in ways that others have the authority to enforce, thereby revealing an important interpersonal dimension of the identities of persons. Finally, all of this is grounded in a distinctively interpersonal form of practical rationality in virtue of which we jointly have reasons to recognize the dignity and authority of fellow members and so to comply with their authoritative demands, as well as to respect (and so comply with) the norms of the community. Hence we persons are essentially social creatures.

This volume takes the pulse of French post-coloniality by studying representations of trans-Mediterranean immigration to France in recent literature, television and film. The writers and filmmakers examined have found new ways to conceptualize the French heritage of immigration from North Africa and to portray the state of multiculturalism within – and in spite of – a continuing Republican framework. Their work deflates stereotypes, promotes respect for cultural and ethnic minorities, and gives a new dignity to subjects supposedly located on the margins of the Republic. Establishing a productive dialogue with Marianne Hirsch’s ground-breaking concept of postmemory, this volume provides a much-needed vocabulary for rethinking the intergenerational legacy of trans-Mediterranean immigrants.

Texto completoResumen
With passage of the Social Security Act, in 1935, the American government took on new social welfare functions, which have expanded ever since. As a work of political theory “on the ground,” The Transformation of American Liberalism explores the arguments American political leaders used to justify and defend social welfare programs since the Social Security Act. Students of political theory note the evolution of liberal political theory between its origins and major contemporary theorists who justify the values and social policies of the welfare state. But the transformation of liberalism in American political culture is incomplete. Beginning with Franklin Roosevelt, the arguments of America’s political leaders fall well short of values of equality and human dignity that are often thought to underlie the welfare state. Individualist—“Lockean”—values and beliefs have exerted a continuing hold on America’s leaders, constraining their justificatory arguments. The paradoxical result may be described as continuing attempts to justify new social programs without acknowledging incompatibility between the arguments necessary to do so and individualist assumptions inherent in American political culture. The American welfare state is notably ungenerous in its social welfare programs. To some extent this may be attributed to the shortcomings of public justifications. An important reason for the striking absence of strong and widely recognized arguments for social welfare programs in America’s political culture is that its political leaders did not provide them.

Every constitutional system today presents major controversies and encounters significant challenges in the protection and guarantees of fundamental rights, and for that reason they constitute the most lively subject of transnational constitutional dialogue. The Italian Constitutional Court has a highly developed body of jurisprudence on fundamental rights, starting with its very first decision examining the validity of Fascist laws limiting freedom of expression. This chapter provides a broad overview of some of the constitutional principles that ground fundamental rights in Italian constitutional law, such as human dignity and equality, and then presents the Court’s case law in a selected set of problem areas: personal liberty; freedom of religion; protection of the family; reproduction; social rights; immigration. These are areas with which many other constitutional systems are struggling, and the Italian Court’s particular way of conceptualizing and addressing these issues provides a welcome new voice in the global dialogue.

Texto completoResumen
International human rights mechanisms’ efficiency is normally linked to the work of independent experts keen to push the boundaries of accountability, against recalcitrant states determined to defend their sovereignty. As a corollary, progress in this field is associated with the creation and maintenance of political free spaces. Another common presumption, rather than fact, is a belief in a differentiated “North” versus “South” approach to the promotion and protection of human rights, that finds solid ground within the prevalent human rights discourses repeated by governmental and non-governmental actors. Through the lenses of the UN Special Procedures, In Defense of Politicization of Human Rights: The UN Special Procedures challenges these and other presumptions informing doctrinal studies, policies, and strategies to advance international human rights. In seeking to debunk commonly held views about the role of politics in human rights at the international level, this book constitutes the first comprehensive study of the Special Procedures as a system covering their history, methods of work, institutional status, and relationship with other politically driven organs and processes affecting their development. The perspective chosen to analyze the human rights mechanisms most vulnerable to political decisions determining their creation, renewal, and operationalization casts a new light on the extent to which these remain the cornerstone of global accountability in protecting the inherent dignity and worth of individuals as well as groups.

Texto completoResumen
This book examines absolute poverty in Europe, which is at the moment fairly neglected in academic and policy discourse. It opens with conceptual and methodological considerations that prepare the ground for an application of the concept of absolute poverty in the context of affluent societies and analyses shortcomings of social statistics as well as possibilities to include highly vulnerable groups. This includes thoughts on ethics of research in this particular field where people live under severe circumstances and research can make a difference. The book sheds light on crucial dimensions of deprivation and social exclusion of people in absolute poverty in affluent societies: access to health care, housing and nutrition, poverty related shame and violence. After conceptual and practical issues, the book investigates into different policy responses to absolute poverty in affluent societies from social policy concerns to civic organizations, e. g. food donations, and penalisation and “social cleansing” of highly visible poor. The book finally frames this discussion by profound ethical considerations and normative reasoning about absolute poverty and its alleviation, how it is related to concerns of justice/injustice as well as human dignity. Furthermore, it questions the power and importance of human rights and their judicial protection in regard of persons in absolute poverty.

Texto completoResumen
Over the last generation, inequality has risen, wages have fallen, and confidence that children will have a better future is at an all-time low. To be sure, a new generation is speaking up in support of universal health care, better public schools, affordable housing, and livable wages. But until the United States adopts and adheres to policies that ensure dignity and decency for all, people need to get by. This book addresses that imperative. Getting By offers an integrated, critical account of the programs, rights, and legal protections that most directly affect poor and low-income people in the United States, whether they are unemployed, underemployed, or employed, and whether they work within the home or outside the home. Although frayed and incomplete, the American safety net nevertheless is critical to those who can access and obtain its benefits—indeed, in some cases, those benefits can make the difference between life and death. The book covers cash assistance programs, employment and labor rights, food assistance, health care, housing programs, education, consumer and banking laws, rights in public spaces, judicial access, and the right to vote. The book primarily focuses on federal laws and programs, but in some contexts invites attention to state laws and programs. The rules and requirements are complicated, often unnecessarily so, and popular know-how is essential to prevent a widening gap between rights that exist on paper and their enforcement on the ground. The central goal of this volume is to provide a resource to individuals, groups, and communities that wish to claim existing rights and mobilize for progressive change.

AbstractThe most obvious conclusion of this book is that there is no single Turkish experience. Nor can we reach definitive once-and-for-all conclusions about the impact of CT as an instrument of social assistance. Comparison among our cases highlights variables grounded in local conditions and policy design that help determine the outcome of CT projects, and whose relevance extends far beyond Turkey. Among these are human and financial resources, but also of the capacity for local knowledge. When these allow consistent and appropriate targeting, CT can provide an important step in the direction of inclusion and equality in a market context. It would be misleading, however, to believe that this instrument on its own is sufficient. At the core of market citizenship is the dignity conferred not only by paying one’s own way, but also by earning one’s own way: CT instruments work best as a complement to, not replacement for, access to the official labor market.

This chapter opens by critiquing the dominant philosophical approach to dignity, which has its origins in Kant, on the grounds that it excludes vulnerable individuals, and cannot account for the phenomenon of lost or damaged dignity. It then lays out the central theoretical framework that informs the remainder of the book. This framework involves three distinct strands of dignity: personal dignity; social dignity; and status dignity. The strands emerge from distinguishing between self-respect and the respect of others, on the one hand, and recognition respect and appraisal respect, on the other.

This chapter focuses on personal and social dignity, exploring the source and scope of individuals’ moral claims against having their dignity violated, frustrated, or destroyed. For personal dignity, the grounds of such claims lie primarily in the import of self-respect, but these claims are constrained by the duties they would impose on others. For social dignity, the grounds of such claims lie primarily in the import of social standing, but depend on the individual being entitled to maintain that social standing. This framework sheds light on the wrongs of humiliating or degrading treatment, while avoiding the problematic implication that individuals can appeal to their dignity to protect bigoted behavior from sanction.

Chapter 3 translates the idea of dignity as species integrity into the more grounded idea of respecting central human capabilities. Fleshing out human capabilities yields a preferred capability list, which is balanced, life stage sensitive, and provisional. This conception of human dignity carries the advantage of avoiding speciesism, the view that members of one’s own species are morally superior. It leaves open the possibility that members of nonhuman species possess their own kind of dignity, based on central capabilities for their species. Dignity as species integrity carries the advantage of avoiding ableism. In contrast to Kantian conceptions, which regard highly developed cognitive functioning as necessary for dignity, Chapter 3 equates dignity with possessing at least one central human capability. Infants and people with disabilities who can affiliate, express emotion, or exercise senses and imagination possess a human dignity that demands respect, even if they lack specific cognitive capabilities.

This chapter investigates whether or not human rights are grounded in human dignity. Starting from an interest-based account of human rights, it rejects two objections to that account that have been pressed in the name of human dignity: the deontological and the personhood objections. More positively, it contends that human dignity is the equal moral status possessed by all human beings simply in virtue of their possession of a human nature, and that so understood, it has an essential role to play in grounding human rights, but that it can only play this role in tandem with universal human interests. In particular, human dignity is central to explaining both why humans can possess rights and why these rights are resistant to trade-offs. The chapter concludes with some reflections on the implications of this view for whether each and every human being possesses all of the standard human rights.

Texto completoResumen
This chapter engages in a debate about the grounding of religious liberty in human dignity. Ronald Dworkin emphasizes dignity as rooted in autonomy, and values religious freedom as the exercise of autonomy. But if this is its value, does religious freedom require separate mention apart from other freedoms? Can more be said to comprehend human dignity? And is there anything distinctive about religious freedom? Possible answers relying on a more ontological account, e.g. drawing on Martha Nussbaum’s Stoic philosophy, would have to be secured against charges of essentialism. At the same time the phenomenology of religious experience suggests that religion is not adequately understood as a choice. Because of its foundational nature and the architectonic role it plays in human lives, religion poses particular challenges for social order. Hence there are good grounds for maintaining a distinctive protection of religious liberty.

Underlying the practice of the protection of freedom of religion in constitutional and human rights law is a debate about the justifications for such protection. Many of the arguments which have been offered during the emergence of the liberal democratic tradition from the seventeenth century onwards are instrumental or theological in nature. By contrast, modern justifications tend to be ‘dignitarian’ in character—non-instrumental and non-theological. Yet they struggle to identify religion as a sufficiently broad liberty-grounding good, or they dissolve freedom of religion into other rights of conscience, expression and association. In general, such dignitarian justifications fail to ground the practice of legally protected religious liberty in liberal democratic political traditions. One fundamental reason for this may lie in the anti-religious tendency of an emerging postmodern conception of human dignity.

This response to Michael Rosen addresses several of the objections that he raises: (1) The alleged neglect of dignity among contemporary philosophers. (2) The indeterminacy of the idea of dignity and consequently its liability to abuse. (3) The apparently disconnected strands of thought commonly associated with dignity, (4) The alleged inadequacy of Kant’s conception of human dignity for practical applications (e.g. vagueness and absolutism). The most important objection, however, concerns Kant’s basis for affirming the dignity of every human person. That is, (5) Kant’s apparent attempt to ground human dignity on the premise that there is in each person an awesome ‘transcendental kernel’ of a noumenal we-know-not-what. The problem is that this would mean that Kant derives his ethical belief from unsupportable, non-empirical metaphysics, but not even in his so-called ‘metaphysics of morals’ does Kant actually try to base morals on metaphysics (as traditionally conceived).

This chapter investigates the widespread and unchecked environmental abuse in India. Nearly a third of India’s land area has been degraded through deforestation, over-cultivation, soil erosion, and depletion of wetlands. Reckless industrialization, mining, and urbanization, as well as deeply flawed agricultural policies and skewed land distribution have reaped a bitter harvest of dislocation and deprivation. This dispossession adds to India’s historically unequal land holdings. Along with the poisoning of life-giving water and air, land alienation and destruction create a hierarchy of citizens suffering unequal access to the fundamental ingredients of social life. The destruction of the elements by the entanglement of the state and big business, and the priority given to private profit over public good, have contributed to the systematic evisceration of democracy-defining social equality. The chapter raises the important question of whether people can be said to have the same right to vote and enjoy equal social dignity if they don’t have the same right to breathe or have equal access to water.
