Through job losses, work hour reductions, and the increased responsibilities of childcare due to school closures, low-income households were forced to adjust their food provisioning habits and food budgets in order to maintain food security. As national and regional food insecurity rates rose from pre-COVID-19 pandemic rates, a need arose to research how households managed their food security status. In order to address this research, the National Science Foundation (NSF) provided funding for qualitative research. As a result, thirty-nine semi-structured interviews were conducted with sixteen low-income Pickens County, SC residents. Through these interviews, and subsequent coding procedures, several themes emerged suggesting how these households attempted to maintain food security during the COVID-19 pandemic. These themes include the use of supplemental government support payments such as P-EBT, the expanded Child Tax Credit, and Economic Impact Payments. These themes also include the use of an improved emergency food system, such as school meal deliveries and drive through food pantry services. Through these mechanisms, it is believed that the Pickens County, SC food insecurity rate was able to remain stable during the COVID-19 pandemic.","PeriodicalId":331747,"journal":{"name":"Humanity & Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125332160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I propose to examine the war from the point of view which bears upon the Indian-state’s relation with its citizens. One of the aims of the paper was to return on one hand to the Indian parliamentary debates around the changes in the Foreigner’s laws which turned Indian-Chinese nationals into Foreigners almost overnight and results in a collective loss of state citizenship and patronage. I also recount the ethnographic aspect of the people who had lived through the experience of being forced to deport, surveillance and curfews which also resulted in en masse internment from their homes to internment camps in Deoli in Rajasthan. The narrative of the people and the state are placed in the relief of discussion of the State’s notion of power, more specifically the notion of Bio-power as discussed in the works of Foucault and Agamben. The paper further brings in the trope of collective remembrance and memory narratives of the Indian-Chinese people as a means of unearthing how citizenship rights of minorities/foreigners has played out in the instance of the 1962 war.","PeriodicalId":331747,"journal":{"name":"Humanity & Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114764577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It urges us to be resolute in the face of a changing world and generous enough to recognize change is an outcome of people’s actions. As such, can unmake what we the people create. The address contends that it is essential for social scientists to direct our attention to the great struggles and issues of our time in a collaborative effort with everyday people to create a truly beloved community. Consider that most academicians are not in a collaborative mood C. Wright Mills’s poignantly stated: “it is one thing to talk about general problems . . . , and quite another to tell an individual what to do. Most ‘experts’ dodge that question. I do not want to.” This address urges reluctant social scientists to step into struggle for creation of the beloved community. It asks us to consider the contributions of actors and epistemologies of regions in the nation and around the world. Moreover, the address asks that we confront the obstacles fueling our reluctance to engage struggles for liberation.","PeriodicalId":331747,"journal":{"name":"Humanity & Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131474853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The debate is structured to present the “pro” and “con” sides to this resolve. This debate and its subsequent analysis herein illuminates tensions within the animal rights movement concerning effective tactics, and highlights main arguments for and against in vitro meat. This paper analyses both sides’ arguments, justifications given, and how both sides engage with each other. The debate is framed in terms of vegan activist tactics. Discourses concerning these tactics are drawn out in terms of how each side views their own reasoning and the other side’s. Evidence for three subsets of differences is presented: (1) a small-scale vs. large-scale perspective (2) variety of activist tactics vs. fundamentalist veganism, and (3) anger vs. naivete. Overall, two drastically differing discourses are found to be reflective of reformist versus a radical orientation towards animal rights and veganism generally. The debate over IVM has somewhat split the vegan community and this paper shows how so and along what lines, and the discourses that have emerged.","PeriodicalId":331747,"journal":{"name":"Humanity & Society","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127166366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
