Today, internships are an essential part of the college curriculum. This rising trend of doing internships among college students can be attributed to the fact that the employers are looking for candidates with work experience. But how do fresh, out of college graduates get themselves relevant work experience while still studying in college? Well, one of the best ways to do so is to intern at a relevant organization while in college. Which, however, puts forward the questions like how do you find an internship, how to apply for one, what sort of internship would be best for you and many others. Lack of information and proper knowledge of the process often leads to stupid mistakes on the student's part that sometimes cost them a chance of interning at the best of the organizations. There is a lot of doubt in a college student's mind when it comes to an internship. For one their biggest dilemma is whether they should intern at a startup or some organization with a big name in the market. The second biggest issue faced by them is regarding the paid internships v/s unpaid internships. And, with most of the big names in the industry offering unpaid internships students are a lot more confused what option should they opt for. What would prove to be more beneficial for them in the future? Things like these pose a lot of hurdles in their attempt at finding the perfect internship for themselves. Most times if not all, students have no idea of what to expect from their internships as the environment at a corporate office is quite different to the carefree and casual environment of the college campuses. But experiences like these are what prepare them for their professional journey after college. Hence, in this edition of Campus Watch, we have brought to you a comprehensive guide on the topic of college internships. Here we have covered almost every topic from the common mistakes that students make while applying for internships, to benefits of working at a startup v/s that of a big brand, the benefits of an online internship, to the benefits of unpaid internships, also on how you could land an internship at Google, to the tips for turning your internship into a full-time job post-college.

In recent years, Islam – whether via the derivatives of 'Political Islam' or 'Islamism' – has come to be seen as an 'activist' force in social and political spheres worldwide. What such representations have neglected is the strong countervailing tradition of political quietism. Political quietism in Islam holds that it is not for Muslims to question or oppose their leaders. Rather, the faithful should concentrate on their piety, prayer, religious rituals and personal quest for virtue. This book is the first to analyze the history and meaning of political quietism in Islamic societies. It takes an innovative cross-sectarian approach, investigating the phenomenon and practice across both Sunni and Shi'i communities. Contributors deconstruct and introduce the various forms of political quietisms from the time of the prophetic revelations through to the contemporary era. Chapters cover issues ranging from the politics of public piety among the women preachers in Saudi Arabia, through to the legal discourses in the Caucasus, the different Shi'i communities in Iran, Lebanon, Iraq and Pakistan, and the Gülen movement in Azerbaijan. The authors describe a wide range of political quietisms and assess the continuing significance of the tradition, both to the study of Islam and to the modern world today.

Failed attempts in Africa to develop, democratise and instil virtues of a just state and society which promote benevolent leadership and advance political and economic rights and freedoms call for a ‘new’ imagination. By exploring a wide range of issues concerning justice, human rights and leadership, this book makes two major contributions to the extant literature in each of these areas. Firstly, as a project in decoloniality, it constitutes an ‘epistemic break’ from mainstream logics and approaches to understanding state, society and development in Africa, presenting an approach that is filtered through a Euro-American lens that reifies the hegemony of a particular spatio-temporality. In other words, it emphasises the importance of situatedness by thinking from rather than about or with Africa. And secondly, it addresses a fundamental shortcoming in decolonial thought, which is often criticised for rejecting western paradigms of thought without providing viable alternatives. The issues covered include state failure in Africa, the geopolitics of US and NATO military interventions on the continent, individual states’ responses to international law, indigenous moral political leadership, authentic inclusion of marginalised voices in development practice, an endogenous approach to environmental ethics, and a spiritualist reflection on the need for Africa to chart her own course to political, social and economic redemption. By searching for alternative paths to justice, human rights and leadership, this book represents an effort to actualise the core vision of the African Renaissance to find ‘African solutions for African problems’.

It is a fact that today’s British stages resound with powerfully innovative voices and that, very often, these voices have been those of young women playwrights. This collection of essays gives visibility and pride of place to these fascinating voices by exploring the vitality, inventiveness and particularly strong relevance of these poetics. These women playwrights sometimes invent radically new forms and sometimes experiment with conventional ones in fresh and unexpected ways, as for example when they re-energize naturalism and provide it with new missions. The plays that are addressed are all concerned with the necessity to grasp the complexity of the contemporary world and to further investigate what it means to be human. Intimate or epic, and sometimes both at once, visionary or closer to everyday life, these plays approach the contemporary world through a multitude of prisms – historical, scientific, political and poetic – and open different and visionary perspectives.
