FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK

Welcome to the combined issue of our Journal-of Political Studies, March-October, 2016. We are sorry to be behind the schedule and hence this combined publication of March and October issues. Nothing in defense of the delay except that we have been waiting for contributions that might interest our readers and we chose not to be timely with hackneyed themes. We have in this issue ten research papers and two book reviews. They range from field based accounts to analytical studies, from studies . on political parties through cultural studies to citizenship issues. We sincerely hope there is something for everyone interested in politics. With fraternal regards,

    Trinamool, Politics and Poribarton: Comprehending the Ideological Connection
    (University of North Bengal, 2016) Howladar, Sumit
    The electoral victory of the Trinamool Congress in the 2011 Assembly election (followed by the 2016 election) in West Bengal defeating the ‘once undefeatable’ Left Front is surely a landmark political development. But in the entire gamete of affairs, one issue which demands serious introspection is the issue of ideology. This paper examines the peculiar silence of ‘ideology’ in Trinamool Congress’ politics and connects it to the idea of ‘Poribarton’. It highlights the features of Trinamool’s ideology and grounds it in the present political scenario of the state to derive a clear picture of the ideological currents currently in vogue.
