The identification of Indian Asian Americans will be determined by pan-ethnicity, gender and religion by the interview responses of Indian Americans, including the pan-ethnic identity of Indians in the Mar Thoma Church community, the second-generation Patel family’s union formation in terms of gender identity. Identity formation theories like acculturation and culture shock theories will be used to justify the claims made in the hypothesis. The analysis will be organized in terms of its beginning with the analysis of important factors of pan-ethnicity and then of gender and religion consecutively as part of thematic analysis and finally by statistical analysis. Results show the reasons include better professional advantages, which propel their choice of different identities and their future directives as part of the hypothesis of Asian American identity of Indians as they merge with the American identity as part of cultural assimilation, in other cases, retain their Asian identity beyond Americanized identity and sometimes go beyond both American, Asian identity to restate their Indian ethnicity. To conclude, the identity of Indian Americans remains in flux and keeps changing due to the requirements of the ever-evolving world.","PeriodicalId":41791,"journal":{"name":"Millennial Asia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44389579","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}

For the analysis purpose, primary data have been collected from rural areas of two main districts of the Shekhawati region of the state of Rajasthan in India. To pursue the objectives, two measures of energy poverty – energy deprivation and the multidimensional energy poverty index – and one measure of human development – the human development index – have been constructed. The primary survey of 1,000 households is conducted from January to March 2020. For establishing the empirical relationship, the study has used Tobit regression analysis. The findings confirm the hypothesis that the existence of energy poverty adversely affects the level of human development in the region. It also confirms the other side of the relationship, which states that increasing human development reduces energy poverty through various linkages. The study results reveal that the government scheme which directly contributes to the per capita income is also impacting positively human development through an increase in income. Hence, to improve the level of human development and to decline energy poverty, the study recommends policies to improve the overall level of income of households.

Households bear a significant burden of medical costs in India. The increased out-of-pocket expenditures on health can, in some cases, drive households into poverty, leading them to incur catastrophic health expenditures. Based on the statistics of Goa for 2016, the leading causes of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) among the non-communicable diseases (NCDs) were ischaemic heart disease (11.0%), diabetes (4.1%), followed by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (4.1%), stroke (4%) and chronic kidney disease, which accounted for 2.3% of the DALYs. Owing to the increasing burden of NCDs in the state of Goa, this article uses a sample of 309 NCD patients to analyse the expenses incurred on three NCDs, namely, diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular illness in terms of costs incurred on medicines, laboratory test costs and hospital stays using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS). The article also compares the indirect costs, that is, loss of earnings as a result of man-days lost for both the patient and the caregiver. The article studies the relationship between socio-economic groups and the impact of an NCD. Finally, the study uses a Bayesian model to compare the likelihood of the household incurring catastrophic health expenditures if afflicted with an NCD. The results indicate an alarming trend in the impoverishment of households due to expenditures on NCDs. Given the chronic nature of NCDs and an increasing rate of prevalence, the government must focus on expanding its public healthcare system and financing for households nearing poverty. Subsequently, they must also focus on awareness campaigns that can promote healthier lifestyles that can play a role in preventing the onset of such NCDs.","PeriodicalId":41791,"journal":{"name":"Millennial Asia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43608023","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 reviews the Kyoto Protocol and Paris Agreement aiming to mitigate climate change with the mechanisms of bindings and pledges, respectively. The research on Kyoto Protocol suggests that most Annex I parties have met their targets through its embedded mechanisms. However, global emissions continued to increase even in the protocol period owing to many defects in its inherent mechanism. Further, the review of the Paris Agreement reveals that most of its signatories are striving hard to achieve the targets. Despite that, the global emissions trends have been very alarming and predicted emissions could be far above the Paris Agreement’s limit. The review reveals that the Kyoto Protocol successfully paved the way for a new climate management order. At the same time, the success of the Paris Agreement relies mainly on communication and compliance of respective Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) by signatories, alignments of NDCs and Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs), and transparency in their emission mitigation targets. The study opined that the developed nations should help developing nations meet their pledges, transfer first-hand technology and provide adequate innovative technological solutions with financial provisions for making a carbon-neutral sustainable planet.","PeriodicalId":41791,"journal":{"name":"Millennial Asia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42504890","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 study employed Granger Causality test in Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) framework to find out the dynamic relationship among the variables. Further, variance decomposition analysis (VDA) and impulse response function (IRF) is also applied to determine the relationships among the variables beyond the sample period. The empirical result shows support for growth-led financial development, growth-led foreign direct investment and growth-led trade openness hypothesis for India. For Pakistan, the results suggest growth-led financial development and growth-led foreign direct investment. In the case of Sri Lanka, the results suggest foreign direct investment-led growth and trade openness-led growth hypothesis. The results do not support any kind of causal relationship among the variables in the case of Bangladesh in the short run. Furthermore, no bidirectional causality among the variables was found for all the countries. The findings imply that all four countries should adopt policies to promote further trade liberalization, financial sector development and also need to fast-track reforms to improve the investment climate and attract investments to attain high economic growth in the long run.","PeriodicalId":41791,"journal":{"name":"Millennial Asia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41669007","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}

These factors have been examined on three broader parameters, viz. economic, sociocultural and institutional by way of using a multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) technique, called the analytic hierarchy process model. The analysis clearly establishes that while the economic dynamics are certainly the elementary drivers of the supply of female child labour, this phenomenon is also attributed, and that too up to a significant extent, to several area-specific sociocultural factors, which are many times ignored. The study finds that three sub-criteria, viz. inadequate annual adult earnings, patriarchy and alcoholism have emerged as major sub-factors in this context. The outcomes of this study have several connotations, both for mitigation of the problem of female child labour as well as further research in this area. The government may emphasise more appropriate strategies like the improvements in labour market outcomes for socio-economically underprivileged sections, restraining alcoholism as well as creating awareness among the masses for bringing changes in the state’s orthodox cultural norms with regard to the girl children and child labour.","PeriodicalId":41791,"journal":{"name":"Millennial Asia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2022-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48135358","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}
