The Pro-Incumbency Century: How Leaders Are Fashioning Repeat Mandates in India
- Author Name:
Sutanu Guru +1
- Book Type:
- Description: "The dominant discourse in media debates before, during, and after elections in India revolves around “anti-incumbency”. Even seasoned commentators and analysts who have covered dozens of elections reflexively chant anti-incumbency like a mantra. Yet, electoral data for more than two decades suggests that the discourse should rather focus on the “pro-incumbency” phenomenon in Indian politics. In the first round of 2022, barring Punjab, assembly elections in four other states UP, Uttarakhand, Manipur, and Goa created history by returning incumbents to power. In 2021, not only did Mamata Bannerjee win a third consecutive term, but Pinnari Vijayan defied history by winning a second consecutive term. Jayalalitha did the unimaginable in Tamilnadu. While it all started with Sheila Dixit in 1998 who won three consecutive terms in Delhi, the winning formula was fine-tuned further by Narendra Modi, Nitish Kumar, Naveen Patnaik, Dr. Raman Singh, Shivraj Singh Chauhan, Tarun Gogoi, Pawan Kumar Chamling and many more Pro-incumbency champions. The book identifies and analyses factors responsible for making this a pro-incumbency century for India: the relentless rise of personality cults; ever-growing Presidential nature of electoral contests; the success of targeted welfare schemes and the structural weakness of opposition apart from the maturing split voting phenomenon. The book plugs a gaping hole in serious electoral analysis in contemporary India."

Sachchidananda Hirananda Vatsyayan 'Ajneya'
- Book Type:
- Description: अगर स्वतंत्रता को बीसवीं शताब्दी की एक बीज अवधारणा मानें तो जिन मूर्धन्य और कालजयी लेखकों ने इस अवधारणा को अपने सृजन, विचार और आयोजन का केन्द्र बनाया, उनमें अज्ञेय का स्थान ऊँचा और प्रमुख हैं। हिन्दी को उसकी आधुनिकता और भारतीय स्वरूप देने में भी अज्ञेय की भूमिका केन्द्रीय रही है। उनकी यह शीर्षस्थानीयता और केन्द्रस्थानीयता उन्हें न सिर्फ़ हिन्दी बल्कि समूचे भारतीय साहित्य का एक क्लैसिक बनाती है। स्वतंत्रता और अपने आत्मबोध के अन्वेषण और विन्यास के लिए अज्ञेय ने साहित्य की शायद ही कोई विधा होगी जिसमें न लिखा हो। उन सभी में अर्थात् कविता, कहानी, उपन्यास, आलोचना, यात्रा-वृत्तान्त, ललित निबन्ध, डायरी, सम्पादन में उनका कृतित्व श्रेष्ठ कोटि का है। हिन्दी में उनसे पहले और बाद में भी कोई और साहित्यकार नहीं हुआ है जो इतनी सारी विधाओं में सक्रिय रहा है और जिसने उनमें से हरेक में शीर्षस्थानीयता हासिल की हो। हिन्दी में आधुनिकता, नई कविता और प्रयोगवाद आदि अनेक प्रवृत्तियों के अज्ञेय प्रमुख स्थापित और अवधारक भी रहे हैं। उनके विपुल और विविध कृतित्व से यह पाठमाला उनकी कुछ अत्यन्त महत्त्वपूर्ण, विचारोत्तेजक और प्रतिनिधि रचनाओं को एकत्र करने का यत्न है। इसके पीछे यह विश्वास है कि यह संचयन अज्ञेय के संसार के प्रति नई जिज्ञासा उकसाकर पाठकों को उनके विपुल साहित्य और विचार के साक्षात्कार और रसास्वादन के लिए प्रेरित करेगा। अज्ञेय-साहित्य के मर्मज्ञ और प्रसिद्ध-आलोचक नन्दकिशोर आचार्य ने पूरी ज़िम्मेदारी, समझ और रसिकता के साथ यह संचयन किया है जिससे इस पाठमाला का महत्त्व और भी बढ़ जाता है।
