Ties that Bind:Michael Haneke’s Black Pedagogy in The White Ribbon
No full textMichael Haneke’s award-winning film ‘The White Ribbon‘ (2009) has generated controversy about the way in which it presents emergent fascism. However, there is a vanishing point other than National Socialism that hasn’t yet engaged critics: the end of Austria-Hungary in 1918. By juxtaposing World War I and II, the director creates a stereoscopic effect — a form of flexible, encompassing memory. Furthermore, Haneke combines his analysis of authoritarian pedagogy in the film, which he borrows from the protest movement of 1968, with his typical media-specific reflections on the potential and pitfalls of cinema to work through the past. The talk will present parts of Fatima Naqvi’s book ‘Trügerische Vertrautheit: Filme von Michael Haneke‘ (‘Deceptive Familiarity: Films by Michael Haneke’), which recently appeared with Synema Verlag, Vienna. Fatima Naqvi is Associate Professor in the German Department at Rutgers University, where she teaches courses on European film and German literature. Her research interests include Austrian authors and filmmakers of the post-1945 period, the intersection of fine art and literature, dilettantism and the theorization of interdisciplinarity. She is also the author of ‘The Literary and Cultural Rhetoric of Victimhood: Western Europe 1970-2005′, New York: Palgrave, 2007, and of How We Learn Where We Live: Thomas Bernhard, Architecture, and Bildung (2012). Fatima Naqvi is Associate Member of the ICI Berlin
پنجاب کی دیہی ثقافت اور غلام الثقلین نقوی کا ناول ’’میرا گاؤں‘‘۔
No full textGhulam-us-Saqlain Naqvi is a renowned Urdu author. His novel "Mera Gaon" has a storyline that resonates with every village in Punjab, despite having the specific rural settings. While the novel does not delve into any particular philosophical themes, it beautifully portrays the simplicity, innocence, and philanthropic nature of the rural Punjab community. Naqvi skillfully captures the cultural diversity prevalent in the rural areas of Punjab. Within the backdrop of social and political fervor, the novel prominently showcases the prevailing trend of philanthropy and profound love for one's soil and homeland. The narrative also presents the villagers' adherence to their local traditions, their unbiased participation in each other's joys and sorrows, and their ways of organizing the ceremonial events.
Book Reviews: Development Economics – A New Paradigm By Syed Nawab Haider Naqvi
No full textThe book essentially revolves around a discussion on the implications and meaning of the word ‘paradigm’ seeking an alternative paradigm for development economics.

Beware of Geeks with Good Intentions by Ijlal Naqvi
In this issue, our contributors take up these concerns in four short essays. Philip Schwadel applies theories of communicative functions to look at sci-fi ’s potential to shape our social understandings. Ijlal Naqvi returns to Isaac Asimov’s Foundation to argue that dreams of perfect social prediction will remain elusive and perhaps undesirable. Erica Deadman showcases how well LeGuin’s Left Hand of Darkness illustrates ideas from the sociology of gender. And Rick Searle looks at “micro-democracy” and the politics of Information in the recent Centenal Cycle books by sci-fi author (and trained sociologist!) Malka Older to find possibilities for alternative political futures

Exact Byzantine consensus under local-broadcast channels
Full text linkWe consider the problem of achieving exact consensus with Byzantine faults under a local-broadcast communication channel. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions on the underlying communication graph to achieve consensus. We show that under this model consensus is possible on undirected graphs that have nodes and are -connected. In contrast, it is well known that with point-to-point links, achieving consensus requires at least nodes and connectivity. We show a tight result for the case of a single fault, by proving that consensus is impossible on any undirected graph that has at most connectivity, and providing an algorithm for -connected graphs with at least nodes. We give another algorithm for achieving consensus with at most faulty nodes, on arbitrary undirected graphs with connectivity and nodes. Additionally, we prove that consensus is impossible on any graph with connectivity less than . We also show some necessity results for directed graphs. Finally, we present an example network that suggests that connectivity less than may be sufficient in general.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2020-05-01The student, Syed Shalan Naqvi, accepted the attached license on 2018-04-26 at 03:23.The student, Syed Shalan Naqvi, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2018-04-26 at 03:29.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2018-04-26 at 15:20.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #12513 on 2018-08-31 at 17:21:39Made available in DSpace on 2018-09-04T20:41:59Z (GMT).

Full text link‘The Evolution of Development Policy: A Reinterpretation’ by
S. N. Haider Naqvi is an excellent and timely discourse on development
paradigms. The author lucidly traces evolution of different development
paradigms and in the process not only thoroughly explains, what each
paradigm stands but also critically evaluates each paradigm. The book is
organised into seven parts. Part I, comprising ‘preliminaries’ gives an
overview of the evolution of thinking on development policy. The
analytical framework highlights the faults in the structure of
development policy. To set the framework for analysing development
policy, the book argues that an evolutionary perspective on development
policy should be examined under three paradigms: traditional development
paradigm; the liberalist paradigm and the human development paradigm.
The author takes pains to describe various important aspects of this
framework. The author also argues that some aspects of the traditional
development paradigm have been misunderstood and in the process
