क्या हमारे देश की महिलाओं की आज़ादी पर एक लक्षमण रेखा खींची हुई है? क्या भारत में public sphere में औरतों की नागरिकता पर कुछ सीमाएं है और क्या खेल के ज़रिये इन बंदिशों से कुछ महिलाओं को मुक्ति मिल पाती है? आज की पुलियाबाज़ी पर बातचीत महिला एथलीट्स पर। चर्चा के लिए हमारे साथ जुड़ रही हैं लेखिका और पत्रकार सोहिनी चट्टोपाध्याय जिन्होंने अपनी किताब The Day I Became a Runner में महिला खिलाडियों के ज़रिये भारतीय महिलाओं की कहानी बताई है। चर्चा बेहद चिलचस्प है। सुनिए और हमसे अपने विचार भी साझा कीजिये।We discuss:* Compromised Citizenship of Women* Running in public gaze* Lack of Public Spaces in India* The role of regulation in safe cities* Women in Athletics* Accidental Feminists* Usha’s comeback after motherhood* Santhi’s story* Dividing sports into strict categoriesAlso, please note that Puliyabaazi is now available on Youtube with video.

Additional notes:Sarojini Naidu Quote referred by Sohini:“Never, never, for we realize that men and women have their separate goals, separate destinies and that just as man can never fulfill the responsibility or the destiny of a woman, a woman cannot fulfill the responsibility of man…We ask for the vote, not that we might interfere with you in your official functions, your civic duties, your public place and power, but rather that we might lay the foundation of national character in the souls of the children that we hold upon our laps, and instill into them the ideals of national life.”—Sarojini Naidu at the Special Session of Congress in Bombay, August 1918.Source: Women in Modern India by Geraldine Forbes, Cambridge University Press, Pg 94Quote referred by Khyati:When the 33rd Session of Indian National Congress met in Delhi in Dec 1918, Saraladevi Chaudhurani presented the resolution supporting the vote for women.

चीन की आर्थिक सफलता के पीछे कई विशेषज्ञ विभिन्न सेक्टरों में बेहतरी या इनोवेशन के अलग-अलग कारण बताते हैं। लेकिन क्या हम कुछ मूलभूत कारण सोच सकते हैं जो सभी क्षेत्रों में चीन की आर्थिक सफलता को समझा सकें? आज की पुलियाबाज़ी पर हम इस विषय पर सोच विचार करते हैं। और पिछले हफ्ते की चर्चा में कुछ तार अगर छूट गए हो तो उनको भी जोड़ने की कोशिश करते हैं, ताकि चीन की पॉलिटिक्स और इकोनॉमिक्स पर हमारी समझ और सटीक हो पाए। आप भी सुनिए और बताइए कि क्या आप हमारे विश्लेषण से सहमत हैं या नहीं। तो सुनिए आज की पुलियाबाज़ी।We discuss:* Local governance model in China* Authoritarian, yet decentralized* Focus on universal primary education* Land ownership in China* Lessons for IndiaAlso, please note that Puliyabaazi is now available on Youtube with video.

भारत चीन को पीछे छोड़ते हुए दुनिया में सबसे ज़्यादा आबादी वाला देश बन गया है। लेकिन उपभोक्ताओं की बड़ी जनसँख्या के बावजूद क्यों भारत विदेशी निवेशकों को आकर्षित करने में पीछे छूट रहा है? इस सवाल का जवाब ढूंढने के लिए आज हम नज़र डालेंगे भारत और चीन के कंसम्पशन ट्रेंड्स पर।  इस हफ़्ते पुलियाबाज़ी पर हमारे मेहमान हैं तक्षशिला इंस्टीट्यूशन से जुड़े स्टाफ रिसर्च एनालिस्ट अमित कुमार, जो भारत और चीन की खपत पर अपनी रिसर्च हमारे साथ साझा करते हैं। आइये, आप भी शामिल हो जाईये इस चर्चा में।  India has surpassed China as the most populous country in the world. With a large base of consumers, shouldn’t India be an attractive destination for foreign investors? However, we see that despite the West’s emerging China+1 policy, India is losing the race to smaller economies in Southeast Asia. Why is that the case? This week on Puliyabaazi, Amit Kumar, Staff Research Analyst at the Takshashila Institution, joins us to share his research on India-China consumption trends. We discuss:* Why do we need to look at consumption data?* Who are consumers?* How does the consumer population in India compare with China?* How do consumption trends change as an economy matures?* Why is India not able to attract investors despite its large consumer base?* Is there any silver lining for India?Also, please note that Puliyabaazi is now available on Youtube with video.
