The present paper argues that the conceptualisation of notions like 'dalit' or 'intracaste' or 'multiple' patriarchies results from a misunderstanding of the concept brahmanical patriarchy. The category 'dalit patriarchy' is gaining popularity in academic and political discourse of contemporary India. It is introduced by Gopal Guru in his seminal essay 'Dalit Women Talk Differently' only to challenge patriarchal practices within 'lower' caste groups. But mainstream feminists of India attempted to propagate and proliferate this vague concept. They argue that dalit men, as a part of their exploitation by 'upper' caste, also face taunts regarding their masculinity which results in their aggressive behaviour on dalit women; which has been called as 'dalit patriarchy'. The paper argues that conceptualisation of such notions yields no advancement in our endeavours toward a gender-just society, rather it is misleading. Evaluating articulations in mainstream Indian feminism, we need to think through: what effect does this have on our feminist struggle? what is at stake? what possibly can be a resolution? Thus, by exposing flaws about 'dalit patriarchy'—including a detailed discussion on the empirical, theoretical, and logical shortcomings—this paper seeks to initiate a theoretical rethinking of feminist as well as dalit scholarship, with employment of analytical, hermeneutical and critical methods.

This paper conducts an event-study analysis to investigate the relationship between unconventional monetary policy announcements by the ECB and corresponding stock returns in the EMU, furthermore, it also postulates a second hypothesis to ascertain whether this relationship differs for firms listed amongst exchanges in Northern region of the EU name Germany, France and The Netherlands with their Southern Counterparts in the EMU, namely Italy, Portugal and Spain between 2006 and 2015. 10-year Government bond yields for Italy and Germany are used to calculate the surprise coefficient, while the returns are calculated from the return's indices of the firms on the CAC, PSI, IBEX, DAX, AEX, and MIB30. The significance of the variations of the Returns are tested with Wilcoxon and GRANK tests (Non- Parametric) for AARs and CAARs respectively. The results suggest that there is a relationship between an unconventional monetary policy announcement and stock returns. The results also indicate that this relationship differs for Northern and Southern European firms. The Average Abnormal Returns (AARs) and Cumulative Average Abnormal Returns (CAARs) indicate opposite movement of stock returns in most cases. Finally, an event study analysis is also conducted on 6 portfolios of Europe wide firms segregated through an intersection of firm size and market capitalisation, the results of which do not show enough evidence to claim substantive inference. ; Este artigo conduz uma análise de estudo de evento para investigar a relação entre anúncios de política monetária não convencionais do BCE e retornos de ações correspondentes na UEM. Além disso, postula uma segunda hipótese para verificar se essa relação difere para as empresas listadas nas bolsas de valores. Região norte do nome da UE Alemanha, França e Países Baixos, com suas contrapartes do sul na UEM, nomeadamente Itália, Portugal e Espanha entre 2006 e 2015. Os rendimentos dos títulos do governo a 10 anos para Itália e Alemanha são usados para calcular o coeficiente de surpresa, enquanto os retornos são calculados a partir dos índices de retorno das empresas no CAC, PSI, IBEX, DAX, AEX e MIB30. A significância das variações dos retornos é testada com os testes Wilcoxon e GRANK (não paramétricos) para AARs e CAARs, respectivamente. Os resultados sugerem que existe uma relação entre um anúncio de política monetária não convencional e o retorno das ações. Os resultados também indicam que esse relacionamento difere para as empresas do Norte e do sul da Europa. Os retornos anormais médios (AARs) e os retornos anormais médios cumulativos (CAARs) indicam um movimento oposto dos retornos das ações na maioria dos casos. Por fim, também é realizada uma análise de estudo de eventos em 6 carteiras de empresas na Europa, segregadas por uma interseção entre tamanho da empresa e capitalização de mercado, cujos resultados não mostram evidências suficientes para reivindicar inferência substantiva.

Untouchables constitute the bottom layer of the hierarchy of Indian caste system. The menial jobs assigned to them and the way they are treated in society certify their role as the 'other'. Manual Scavenging is a practice still existing in India which creates self othering in outcastes. Mulk Raj Anand's novel Untouchable lays down the stigma associated with manual scavenging by exploring the life of Bakha, an untouchable. This paper analyses Untouchable as a seminal work dealing with the othering and oppression meted out to the lowcastes. The hypocrisy of the upper castes and the influences of British rule and Christianity have a role in the process of othering of the untouchable in Indian society. For an outcaste like Bakha, even the hope of equality and freedom from untouchability and poverty is futile. The democratic constitution of India, offering equality of status and opportunities to its citizens fails to eradicate the divisions and discriminations based on caste system. The scientific knowledge and technological inventions have brought changes in labour based divisions in society. But occupations like manual scavenging exist in the central belt of India segregating the population.

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to undertake a phenomenological study of the working conditions and living standards of private security guards (private police) in New Delhi. The focus here is to bring forth their lived experiences as security guards.


Design/methodology/approach
The paper touches briefly upon the theoretical formulations on phenomenological sociology. The principal emphasis here is on the field application of phenomenology as a methodology of social inquiry – how phenomenology was put to use, the research problems encountered and how these research conundrums were navigated. The research makes use of interview as the technique of data collection. The study uses purposive and convenience sampling.


Findings
The research has tried to bring forth the lived experiences of the private security guards as regards to their job and living conditions, by "bracketing off" the author's biases to the best of the author's capacity. From the interview responses, some higher level concepts have been formulated, called the "essence" of lived experiences.


Research limitations/implications
As the sample size is small, the research cannot be considered a peremptory account of the "lived experiences" applicable to all the private security guards in Delhi. Such sweeping generalizations need to be avoided.


Practical implications
Besides highlighting the lived experiences of the private security guards, the larger purpose of this paper to solicit critical comments from the readers so that the field application of phenomenology could be better understood and refined further.


Originality/value
This is an original research work carried out by the author. During the fieldwork, "reflexivity" has been the author's constant companion, where the author has tried best to keep the author's prejudices at bay. Its value is twofold: first, as phenomenological research works on private security guards are few in India, this study can stimulate further research works in this field and second, the research can carry forward the debate on how to improve further phenomenological research works.

Julia Kristeva's theory of abjection, as propounded in Powers of Horror, emphasises the centrality of the repulsion caused by bodily experience in human life, and explains behaviours in and attitudes to our environment. The phenomenology of abjection bears similarities to the phenomenology of disgust. Both involve physical feelings of repulsion caused by a source, and the concomitant need to reject the source in various ways. Abjection is conceptualized within a psychoanalytic framework where it refers to the repudiation of the maternal prior to the production of an autonomous subject, and the subsequent rejection of disgusting substances in later life. But apart from its role in such a psychoanalytic account, are there any other significant differences that exist between abjection and disgust, or are we looking at a distinction without a difference?
