I've only done SR notes + newspaper articles on IPT that appear here and there. I didn't feel the time worth investing to read a book on that topic.

Check out IGNOU MA notes. Some thinkers are available.

Thank you so much! :)
anybody has notes on chipko & NBA with scholary opinion ( research papers have low roi) + some good articles on agri movement from psir pov.
SR notes seem inadequate for social movement topic-Social Movements in India.pdf
Thanks in advance!
any book where i can read about topics like democracy, rights, justice , equality for clearer understanding, SR notes are extensive in this regard but i am not able to attempt certain PYQs.. so i guess i need more conceptual clarity
You can try Heywood’s Political Theory or OP Gauba too.
@whatonly the number of books you've read gives me a FOMO 😆 . Please become a topper soon and share your notes with me , Itni kitaabe nhi padhi jaati hmse :p
@KropotkinSchmopotkin I am having doubt in this concept itselfEndowment sensitive means auction should be according to natural capacities. Ambition sensitive means people should have choices to decide.Right?Now, Dworkin wants that those who are at natural disadvantage or having physical disabilities would be given extra clamshell.Iska meaning yhi hua na he want endowment sensitive auction. I am having doubt how he don't want endowment sensitive.
Read my comments again, especially the excerpt from Dworkin's essay.
SR's interpretation is internally consistent but not consistent with Dworkin's scheme-
1. Endowment-sensitive and Ambition-sensitive are not attributes of auction but attributes of distribution.
2. Endowment-sensitive means that distribution will reflect differences in abilities between people with similar ambition. This is NOT desirable for Dworkin.
3. Ambition-sensitive means not only that people have choice, but that the difference in their choices will be reflected in the distribution
@whatonly @Villanelle Would you use "brahminical patriarchy" in an answer, or would you be worried that a conservative examiner would hold that against you? Talking about a purely academic context of course eg "Uma Chakravarty uses the term "brahminical patriarchy" to draw attention to the intersectionof caste and gender oppression."
Context- While writing answers I'm always worried that my urban naxal membership card is showing

😂 I don’t know…it shouldn’t matter considering it’s someone else’s words.
I do think though that what we write has to be more nuanced. Sometimes, the way things are said in THE notes makes them sound pathetic.
@whatonly thoughts?

I used both brahminical patriarchy (Uma Chakravarty) and capitalist patriarchy (Zillah Eisenstein) in my answers this year.
Do not worry about these things. There's full freedom to call a spade a spade in our subject, especially when something is well-established in academic circles!
