Peace studies: a brief philosophical outline
(University of North Bengal, 2024-03) Ramthing, N.
Peace is vital for mutual and harmonious global existence. Avenues for academic and practical discourse on international peace are not irrelevant. Peace studies as an engaging discipline, having a global outlook, theoretical, practical, and normative, can be a promising platform for addressing issues concerning conflicts and violence through peaceful means. The enumeration and adumbration of various theories can set a perspective for pragmatically understanding peace for perpetual peace. Peace is not only an abstract idea; practical aspects are woven throughout the ideas. The unfolding of conceptual relevance to practical platforms is generated through the prism of inquiry into widely divergent spheres related to the issues. In light of the critical role of peace studies in fostering constructive conflict resolution to crises and conflicts, this study emphasizes the necessity of bolstering peace studies as an essential tactic for achieving global peace. Any endeavor for a peace strategy that aims to transform and resolve conflicts calls for a nonviolent approach since achieving peace is just as vital as the desired outcome: a peaceful international order. This paper is divided into three sections: the first defines and adumbrates the term, the second identifies and analyses numerous concepts, and the third highlights the discipline as one of the key facets of human enterprise.

Women and contemporary politics during the times of Babur and Humayun
(University of Northe Bengal, 2024-12) Roy, Varun Kumar
The historical narrative of Babur and his family underscores the pivotal yet often underappreciated role of women in the political arena of the Mughal dynasty. Ehsan Daulat Begam's exemplary leadership during Babur's formative years not only safeguarded his claim to power but also demonstrated the significant influence women could wield within a patriarchal framework. Her ability to navigate complex political challenges and maintain stability in the court reflects a broader theme of women's active participation in governance during this era, countering prevalent stereotypes of female passivity. Moreover, figures such as Mahim Begam and Bibi Mubarika illustrate how women were not just supportive figures but key players in the shaping of political strategies and alliances. Their involvement in military campaigns, diplomatic relations, and the management of the household highlights the multifaceted roles women occupied, significantly influencing the direction and consolidation of Babur's rule and, by extension, the Mughal Empire. The contributions of these women extend beyond their immediate context, resonating through generations and impacting the political landscape of their time. Their legacies serve as a reminder of the essential need to reassess historical narratives, recognizing and valuing the instrumental roles women have played in shaping history. This nuanced understanding enriches our comprehension of the socio-political dynamics of the past and emphasizes the importance of inclusivity in historical discourse. Thus, the accounts of Babur’s family indeed reflect not only the complexities of power dynamics within their immediate context but also the enduring capacity of women to influence and determine the course of history, challenging the traditional paradigms of leadership and authority.
