"This book is an attempt towards a fresh understanding of the political economy of womens work in India and its relationship with the Indian state. The study critically analyses the concept and politics of work, worker, and women workers. The politics of the social, social welfare, and social policy is defined very close to how the public and the private are defined. There is an extension of the domestic into the public in the context of women workers in the social welfare schemes like the honorary workers. The study analyses the history and politics of work and womens work in the Indian context through a case study of honorary workers in the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) scheme. The book examines how women figure in the states social welfare policies, making a link between the politics around womens work and social welfare policies. It contributes towards a better understanding of the broader political framework constructed by the political economy of the state within which womens work gets defined as honorary. The study examines the complexities around the weakening of social sector services with the withdrawal of state support under globalization coinciding with the need and demand for expansion of the horizon of state welfare schemes and programmes like the ICDS and its anganwadis. With more and more women especially from poor or lower-middle-class background employed in new social welfare schemes where the form of work is defined as voluntary social service, the book brings into attention the issue of further marginalization and exploitation of women workers especially from the lower or middle class by the Indian state."

"Konflik yang terjadi karena benturan kepentingan menjadi bagian tak terpisahkan dari sejarah manusia. Perang Kongo Kedua yang melibatkan sembilan negara membuktikan bahwa konflik dan kekerasan masih menjadi alat utama untuk meraih kepentingan. Perang ini berhenti di tahun 2003 setelah penandatanganan perjanjian damai Sun City. Perjanjian ini membuka jalan bagi dibentuknya negara demokrasi di RDK dengan bantuan dari aktor-aktor peacebuilding internasional, salah satunya MONUC. Akan tetapi kenyataannya konflik dan kekerasan terus terjadi khususnya di daerah Kivu. Skripsi ini berusaha untuk menganalisis mengaap peacebuilding tidak berhasil meskipun sudah terbentuk negara demokrasi di RDK dengan menggunakan empat indikator, pertama karakteristik pemerintahan yang terbentuk, kedua alienasi kelompok masyarakat lokal, ketiga strategi aktor peacebuilding, dan keempat hubungan antar negara di kawasan Great Lakes Afrika. Kemudian akan dilihat pula bagaimana keempat indikator ini saling memengaruhi dan menciptakan hambatan dalam proses peacebuilding di RDK.

Conflict that is caused by the clash of interest is one of the integral parts in human history. The Second Congo War that put nine different states in one massive war was one of the most prominent examples on how violence is still being used as a tool to achieve their interests. The signing of Sun City peace accord in 2003 gave way to the creation of democratic states in DRC with the assistance of international peacebuilding actors, one of the most important of them was MONUC. Surprisingly the creation of democratic state didn?t necessarily mean that violence would stop, especially in the province of Kivus in the eastern part of DRC.

This thesis try to seek and analyze the reason why violence is still occuring in DRC despite the existence of democratic government. Four indicators will be used to analyze the phenomena, first is the characteristic of the new government, second is the alienation of the local community in DRC, third is the strategy of the peacebuilding actors, and fourth is the relations between states in the African Great Lakes region. This thesis will also see how those four indicators affecting one another and creating an obstacle in the implementation of peacebuilding in DRC."
