EPW and Indian Cultural Forum

My paper on 'Politics of Food Production and Consumption' has been accepted for publication by the Economic and Political Weekly of India (EPW)! This is great news! The paper deals with practices of vegetarian and non-vegetarianism and with the factory farming of animals, issues which I have been concerned about a lot lately and which have even led me down into depression.

The other piece of news is that I had a poem accepted for the Indian Cultural Forum. The poem 'New MacDonalds has a Factory' is also about factory farming of animals,using the popular nursery rhyme 'Old MacDonald had a farm'.

I will put up both of these, and links to them, once they are published.
