Gunjan Deshpande L.L.M Dissertation

"state is the protector and guardian." Hence the duty of the state to take care of the people who cannot take care of themselves. So, today the government is providing food, healthcare facilities, jobs and much more. If the government is guardian and even the natural guardian is responsible for the death of child by negligence and all then the government should also be responsible for the deaths of any child whenever there is the inability on the government part.

‘Melghat’, meeting of Ghats. The region which situated in Southern offshoot of Satpura ranges is known as ‘Melghat’ which is in Amravati District of progressive North Eastern Maharashtra State. Melghat is hilly and covered with dense teak reserved forest. The population of this region is almost rural and tribal and it mainly consists of ‘Korku's’. Korku is a tribal community of Central India concentrated in Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. The tribal community of Melghat is in critical condition and living life somehow as it is Tiger Reserve Forest area. Similarly, this region has a severe problem of malnutrition. In Melghat, between the years 1992 to 1997 around 5000 tribal children’s died and are still dying due to very high child mortality & malnutrition. This research paper attempts to the Korku’s problem of distress health issues and zero to six years old child malnutrition. The Korku tribe in Melghat is literally excluding from the basic health facilities, education, and basic livelihood rights like collection of forest produces from the forest. Korkus are far away from the social main stream and they are excluded drastically from the agricultural land.

This paper explores calorie deprivation in Maharashtra across regions as well as sub-groups of population such as caste, sizeclass of land possessed, religion, and household type (indicating principal occupation of the household) for rural and urban areas separately. There are two aspects to the discussion. First, we explore the inequities with regard to average intake in terms of calorie, fat, protein and cereals. Second, we analyse incidence, depth and severity of calorie deficiency. In the latter calculation, we use per consumer unit calorie norm of 2400 in rural and 2100 in urban and arrive at incidences of calorie-poor to be 54% in rural and 40% in urban. This will be lower than a per capita calorie norm with the same bench mark, but is higher than the incidences of expenditure-poor of 30% for rural areas and 32% for urban areas. It is worrying that the hands that help produce food (farmers and agricultural labourers) have a higher incidence of calorie poor.

Siddhant Agarwala

The persistence of malnutrition, especially among children and mothers, in this” World of plenty, is immoral. To live a life without malnutrition is a fundamental human right. It is recognized by the academicians that the social and economic costs of poor nutrition are huge on the nation and social investment in nutrition will reduce health care costs, reduce the burden of non-communicable diseases, improve productivity and economic growth and promote education, intellectual capacity and social development. However, this understanding has never reached to the implementers of the program, and the program has the image of welfare not as a right of the child and women to live life free from malnutrition.

Focus on Children under Six (Report by Citizens’ Initiative for the Rights of Children under Six)

Surabhi Chopra

This analysis (on p.11 of the FOCUS report) considers the different laws relating to children in India, and identifies gaps and inadequacies in the existing legal framework. Focus On Children Under Six draws on a detailed survey -- the “FOCUS survey” -- of the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS), the only major national programme addressed to children under six. The report shows that the ICDS programme tangibly benefits Indian children, and makes a case for securing core universal entitlements for all children.

HLS Dissertations, Theses, and JD Papers

S.j.d. dissertations, ll.m. papers, ll.m. theses, j.d. papers, submitting your paper to an online collection, other sources for student papers beyond harvard, getting help, introduction.

This is a guide to finding Harvard Law School (“HLS”) student-authored works held by the Library and in online collections. This guide covers HLS S.J.D Dissertations, LL.M. papers, J.D. third-year papers, seminar papers, and prize papers.

There have been changes in the HLS degree requirements for written work. The library’s collection practices and catalog descriptions for these works has varied. Please note that there are gaps in the library’s collection and for J.D. papers, few of these works are being collected any longer.

If we have an S.J.D. dissertation or LL.M. thesis, we have two copies. One is kept in the general collection and one in the Red Set, an archival collection of works authored by HLS affiliates. If we have a J.D. paper, we have only one copy, kept in the Red Set. Red Set copies are last resort copies available only by advance appointment in Historical and Special Collections .

Some papers have not been processed by library staff. If HOLLIS indicates a paper is “ordered-received” please use this form to have library processing completed.

The HLS Doctor of Juridical Science (“S.J.D.”) program began in 1910. The library collection of these works is not comprehensive. Exceptions are usually due to scholars’ requests to withhold Library deposit.

Hein’s Legal Theses and Dissertations Microfiche Mic K556.H45x Drawers 947-949 This microfiche set includes legal theses and dissertations from HLS and other premier law schools. It currently includes about 300 HLS dissertations and theses.
Hein's Legal Theses and Dissertations Contents List This content list is in order by school only, not by date, subject or author. It references microfiche numbers within the set housed in the Microforms room on the entry level of the library, drawers 947-949. The fiche are a different color for each institution.
ProQuest Dissertations and Theses @ Harvard University (Harvard login) Copy this search syntax: dg(S.J.D.) You will find about 130 SJD Dissertations dated from 1972 to 2004. They are not available in full text.
DASH Digital Access to Scholarship at Harvard Sponsored by Harvard University’s Office for Scholarly Communication, DASH is an open repository for research papers by members of the Harvard community. There are currently about 600 HLS student papers included. Unfortunately it is not possible to search by type of paper or degree awarded.

The Master of Laws (“LL.M.”) degree has been awarded since 1923. Originally, the degree required completion of a major research paper, akin to a thesis. Since 1993, most students have the option of writing the LL.M. "short paper." This is a 25-page (or longer) paper advised by a faculty supervisor or completed in conjunction with a seminar. Fewer LL.M. candidates continue to write the more extensive "long-paper." LL.M. candidates holding J.D.s from the U.S. must write the long paper.

HLS Written Work Requirements for LL.M. Degree The current explanation of the LL.M. written work requirement for the master of laws.

The library generally holds HLS LL.M. long papers and short papers. In recent years, we require author release in order to do so. In HOLLIS, no distinction is made between types of written work created in satisfaction of the LL.M. degree; all are described as LL.M. thesis. Though we describe them as thesis, the law school refers to them solely as papers or in earlier years, essays. HOLLIS records indicate the number of pages, so at the record level, it is possible to distinguish long papers.

HLS LL.M. Papers in HOLLIS To refine these search results by topic, faculty advisor, seminar or date, click Add a New Line.

HLS LL.M. Papers are sometimes available in DASH and Hein's Legal Dissertations and Theses. See descriptions above .

The HLS J.D. written work requirement has changed over time. The degree formerly required a substantial research paper comparable in scope to a law review article written under faculty supervision, the "third year paper." Since 2008, J.D. students have the option of using two shorter works instead.

Of all those written, the library holds relatively few third-year papers. They were not actively collected but accepted by submission from faculty advisors who deemed a paper worthy of institutional retention. The papers are described in HOLLIS as third year papers, seminar papers, and student papers. Sometimes this distinction was valid, but not always. The faculty deposit tradition more or less ended in 2006, though the possibility of deposit still exists.

Note that there is not always a winner each year for each award. Prize winners are announced each year in the commencement pamphlet.

The Library has not specifically collected prize papers over the years but has added copies when possible. The HOLLIS record for the paper will usually indicate its status as a prize paper. The most recent prize paper was added to the collection in 2006.
