This paper explores the dynamics between competing interest groups and their influence on public policy through the news media. It examines the role of environmental activists, particularly the Sierra Club, in mobilizing public support for fuel economy standards in the automotive industry, illustrating the contest for public attention and the impact of media coverage on political outcomes. The study suggests that the interplay between private interests and public activism shapes both public sentiment and regulatory frameworks.

Nation States are constructed, imagined, represented and authenticated through the principle of inclusion and exclusion, where the idioms of culture, race, history, politics and ideology conjure what Anderson calls an "elastic space" beyond which lies the abyss of the other. The 'other' then becomes an essential component in discourses of Nation formation, as it is through a response to the other that the nation fashions its ontological identity, a "phenomenology of alterity". As Levinas points out in his essay "The Trace of the Other" : " the outside of me solicits it in need: the outside of me is for me." The other is thus an intimate enemy for the nation. The nation is then latently reliant on the fixated identity of the other and is thus deeply apprehensive of this other and seeks an epistemic consummation of it in its totality. The nation state constantly interrogates the other : " what do you want from me?" which Zizek terms as "Che voi(?)" a constant interrogation which is the genesis of all forms of xenophobia. This in turn has the possibility to induce sporadic spectacles of active or passive violence through which the other responds to the nation. Such acts of violence then become an integral component of the performative of the other. In Mohsin Hamid's The Reluctant Fundamentalist, Chengiz Khan, a man who migrates to America, embracing the American dream, faces constant interrogation in a post 9/11 world from the host nation state to which he in turn responds through a form of passive violence, accomplishing the cult of the other. This paper interrogates into the performative of the other and the economy of violence which is inseparable from it and through a close analysis of the novel, explore the problematic relationship between the nation state and the other.

This article focuses on how to use ethnography and theory to disrupt binaries between "state" and "nonstate" actors and violence and "private" and "public" actors and violence. I also touch on expanded use of the political opinion basis for asylum in relation to women resisting violence and immigrant rights activists who are undocumented.

Welcome to the Department of Condensed Matter Physics and Materials Science (CMPMS) at TIFR! Research in CMPMS asks questions about the nature of materials that are in the " condensed state " – familiar condensed phases like solids or liquids, but also more exotic phases such as the superconducting phase at low temperatures, magnetically-ordered phases etc. We also work on semiconductors and nanostructured materials, and soft-matter. We study the electronic, physical, mechanical, optical, and chemical properties of materials, in relation to their structure. Our emphasis is on the experimental measurement of various properties using different probes in an attempt to understand the underlying physical behaviour. We fabricate optoelectronic, plasmonic, and superconducting device structures that serve as test sytems to study novel phenomena and also enable real world applications.
