ബെൽജിയത്തിൽ ജനിച്ച ഒരു ഇന്ത്യക്കാരനായ ഒരു സാമ്പത്തികശാസ്ത്രജ്ഞനും സാമൂഹികപ്രവർത്തകനുമാണ് ഴാങ് ദ്രസ് (Jean Drèze). (ജനനം 1959). [1] [2] വിശപ്പ്, ദാരിദ്ര്യം, ലിംഗസമത്വം, കുട്ടികളുടെ ആരോഗ്യം, തൊഴിലുറപ്പു പദ്ധതി എന്നിവയിലാണ് ഡ്രീസ് ഇന്ത്യയിൽ ശ്രദ്ധപതിപ്പിക്കുന്നത്. തൊഴിലുറപ്പുപദ്ധതി എന്ന ആശയം ആദ്യം അവതരിപ്പിച്ചതും അതിന്റെ ആദ്യകരട് തയ്യാറാക്കിയതും ദ്രസ് ആണ്.
ഇദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ സഹ-എഴുത്തുകാരിൽ സാമ്പത്തികശാസ്ത്രത്തിൽ അമർത്ത്യസെന്നും (വിഷയം:ദാരിദ്ര്യം) നിക്കോളസ് സ്റ്റേണും (വിഷയം: കമ്പോളവിലകൾ വളച്ചൊടിക്കുപ്പെടുമ്പോൾ അതിൽ സർക്കാർ ഇടപെടേണ്ടതിനെക്കുറിച്ച്) ആൻഗുസ് ഡീറ്റണും ഉൾപ്പെടുന്നു. ഇപ്പോൾ ഡൽഹി സ്കൂൾ ഓഫ് ഇക്കണോമിക്സിലും റാഞ്ചി സർവ്വകലാശാലയിലെ സാമ്പത്തികശാസ്ത്രവിഭാഗത്തിലും സന്ദർശക അധ്യാപകനായി പ്രവർത്തിക്കുന്നുണ്ട്. ഇന്ത്യുടെ ദേശീയ ഉപദേശക കൗൺസിലിന്റെ ഒന്നും രണ്ടും ടേമുകളിൽ അദ്ദേഹം അംഗമായിരുന്നെങ്കിലും ഒരു വർഷത്തിനൊടുവിൽ ഡ്രീസ് രണ്ടുതവണയും ആ പരിപാടി വേണ്ടെന്നുവച്ചു.[3]
ആദ്യകാലജീവിതം
[തിരുത്തുക]Jean Drèze is from a prominent Belgian academic family. His father is the economist Jacques Drèze, founder of the Center for Operations Research and Econometrics, at the Université catholique de Louvain.[4] His brother, Xavier Drèze, was a well-known and influential marketing and consumer research scholar at UCLA.[5]
He studied Mathematical Economics at the University of Essex in the 1980s and did his PhD (theoretical economics of cost-benefit analysis) at the Indian Statistical Institute, New Delhi.[6]
He has lived in India since 1979 and became an Indian citizen in 2002.
വ്യക്തിജീവിതം
[തിരുത്തുക]He is married to Bela Bhatia, an academic and human right activist from India. He currently lives in Ranchi.
തൊഴിൽ
[തിരുത്തുക]Jean Drèze taught at the London School of Economics in the 1980s, his only full-time post, and at the Delhi School of Economics, and had been Visiting Professor at the G.B. Pant Social Science Institute, Allahabad. Presently, he is an Honorary Chair Professor of the "Planning and Development Unit" created by the Planning Commission, Government of India, in the Department of Economics, University of Allahabad, India. He has made wide-ranging contributions to development economics and public economics, with special reference to India.
He has worked on many issues relating to development economics including hunger, famine, education, gender inequality, childcare, school feeding, employment guarantee etc. His works combine standard economic methods (such as his articles relating to poverty in India) and tools that are used more commonly by anthropologists (such as his work on the village of Palanpur, Moradabad District, Uttar Pradesh, India with Nicholas Stern, Peter Lanjouw and others, which included him living for a period in village under the same conditions as local people, farming a plot of land and keeping animals as recounted with Naresh Sharma in the article "Sharecropping in a North Indian Village", Journal of Development Studies, Oct. 1996). The combination of extensive field work and qualitative analysis of everyday life and poverty, along with quantitative work makes his work distinctive in the field of economics. He uniquely brings to the table his extensive fieldwork—few economists live as much in the country's villages—combined with outstanding analytical skills.[7]
It is not coincidence that Amartya Sen coauthored on a number of major publications on India, given his unique contacts with the grassroots and has even remarked that the "agreeable thing" about working with Dreze is that "he does most of the work and I get most of the credit".
PROBE റിപ്പോർട്ട്
[തിരുത്തുക]A key work widely cited that Dreze worked on as part of a small team was the primary education study of key states in northern India typically referred to by its short name, The PROBE Report, or The Public Report on Basic Education (1999). It remains a key reference due to the lack of similarly comprehensive studies using grassroots development specialists.
സാമൂഹിക ഇടപെടലുകൾ
[തിരുത്തുക]Dreze is well known for his commitment to social justice, both in India and internationally. During and after his PhD in India, he adopted a lifestyle of voluntary simplicity.[8] While in the LSE, he frequently slept rough and lived with homeless squatters, helping to start a squatters movement in 1988 that opened buildings to the homeless and defied eviction.[8] He wrote a short book about this movement and the life of the homeless in London, called No. 1 Clapham Road: the diary of a squat.[9] Dreze is known for refusing luxury and, while doing fieldwork, still lives and works in the same conditions as his respondents. In Delhi he and his wife Bela Bhatia had a one-room house in a jhuggi.[8]
Apart from academic work he has been actively involved in many social movements including the peace movement, the Right to Information campaign that led to the Right to Information Act in India, the Right to Food campaign in India,[10] among others.
During the 1990–1991 Iraq War, he joined a peace camp stationed on the Iraq-Kuwait border. His 1992 article with Haris Gazdar, "Hunger and Poverty in Iraq, 1991", was one of the first assessments of Iraq's economy after the Gulf war, and an early warning about the potential human costs of the Iraq sanctions. Another book that came out of Iraq is War and Peace in the Gulf, edited by Bela Bhatia, Jean Dreze and Kathy Kelly.
