Imperialism extended the sovereignty of the European Nations and Europe originated “modernity” beyond European space. Trinity of Resources, State and Markets operated vertically to construct the identities and subjectivities of the people. The study will employ Foucault concepts of governmentality, Power/knowledge, and discourse to understand the Archaeology (History of Present) of Globalization. Foucault believes that objective of Archaeology is to study change and transformation (Foucault, [1969], 2004). Foucault treats ‘concepts’ as strategies 2 of domination so his work drew attention of thinkers like Michel Watts working on repression of Post colonial state “development governmentality” (Watts M. , 2003), treating the state in third world as apparatus and instrument of control used indirectly by the ex (colonial)masters. One expression of “European Modernity” is its mode of political organization i.e. State and State system, which originated in Europe but that is now global in nature. Development of State or State system with its instrumental reason and processes that rationalize society, economy and polity was a unique feature of Europe. Twin doctrines of state and capitalism served as structures of rationality for modern world has their origin in Renaissance European state where they first devised their mechanisms of subjugation. Foucault aims to do “without a theory of the state” and one claim of Globalization narrative is that Globalization has made state ineffective. Foucault objects two fundamentals of state theory. · 2 State is a universal entity Strategy is defined by Deryfus and Rabinow (1983) as rationality involved in arriving at a solution or addressing a question or to attain the intended objective. 13· State is an independent, autonomous source of power. For him the “state is neither a universal nor in itself an autonomous source of power” (Foucault, 2008, p. 77). Foucault treats “Emergence of state as a fundamental political issue” is an episode in “general history” of Governmentality. (Foucault, 2004, p. 247) Foucault believes that state is nothing else but mobile effects of multiple governmentalities. Apex of state making for postcolonial world is European model of nation state. Nation state model of Europe is capitalist where state becomes a tool in construction of Bourgeoisie hegemony and capitalist accumulation. In Postcolonial world state serves the dual purpose of capitalist accumulation for the indigenous bourgeoisie and accumulation at world scale. Present singular world has its origins in age of European imperialism; however despite claims of homogeneity today we encounter with the problem of time/ space in this singular Globalised world. People living in different spaces are living in different times (traditional, modern and postmodern world is present within the global space The prime preposition for this study is that hybrid, heterogeneous, local compositions in “global homogenous singular formation” termed as “Globalization” and people living in different time zones of modernity across different spaces in age of globalization are products of different “governmentalities” (conduct patterns) employed by states to facilitate the requirements of global capitalism. We have further deconstructed this main preposition in components. · The governmentality employed in Core states is essentially different from Peripheral states. OR The different patterns of conduct and rules of governance are employed in Eurocenter (West) and non Western others. 14· The will to knowledge is not separate from will to power. Western knowledge produced and sustained the “structures of rationality” and different versions of same political organization i.e. state to sustain hegemonic orders. · State and Capital are intrinsic to each other and state is still meaningful in this era of triumph of capitalism. · State is not only the structures of dominance sustaining global and local hegemonies but also provide a conception of “just rule” for resistance movements fighting against global and local forms of subjugations. Study is divided in four main chapters 1. Archaeology of Contemporary Political Reason 2. Hegemonic Governmentality: A Nexus of Power/knowledge and Subjectivities 3. Chapter 3: Emergence of New World Order and Post Colonial Structures of Rationality: Case of Nigeria and Pakistan 4. Myth of Globalization The first chapter will provide an archaeological approach to World-System. Colonial Governmentality adopted in British India and Colonial Nigeria will be discussed as “Other” to European Governmentality in second Chapter. In third Chapter governmentality employed by Post colonial state of Pakistan and Nigeria that gave rise to ethno national movements of Biafra and Bangladesh will be discussed. Fourth Chapter will discuss along with a new concept of governmentality employed in Europe as well as impacts of anarcho- capitalism of neoliberal Washington Consensus on Postcolonial states. Religious Revivalism and Ethnicity are two responses to this development. Our finding is that despite its failure, state is still relevant in the age of Globalization and we suggest a state remedy for state failure.

PARADIGMA BARU PENDIDIKAN KONTEMPORER DI INDONESIA

Education is a series of processes of human empowerment towards maturity, both intellectually, mentally and morally, to carry out the humanitarian function carried as a servant (abd) in front of his Khaliq and as a "preserver" (caliph) in the earth. The position of contemporary education in the midst of the spirit of national education reform, of course it is necessary to look at the meaning and role of contemporary education in this national life. Similarly, in order to find a new paradigm of contemporary education, it should begin with the existence of Islamic education in the history of national and state life. And in developing the quality of contemporary education, of course it is necessary to pay attention. First, education is increasingly demanded to appear as emerging in the development of the quality of human resources (output of education). Second, in the perspective of the world of work, an orientation to real abilities (what one can do) that can be displayed by very strong education graduates Third, as a result of globalization.

Harmonically S, M -Convex Functions and Related Inequalities

The theory developed about convex functions, arising from intuitive geometrical observations, may be readily applied to topics in real analysis and economics.Convexity is a simple and natural notion which can be traced back to Archimedes (circa 250 B.C.), in connection with his famous estimate of the value of π (using inscribed and circumscribed regular polygons). He noticed the important fact that the perimeter of a convex figure is smaller than the perimeter of any other convex figure surrounding it. In modern era, there occurs a rapid development in the theory of convex functions. There are sereval reasons behind it: firstly, many areas in modern analysis directly or indirectly involve the applications of convex functions; secondly, convex functions are closely related to the theory of inequalities and many important inequalities are consequences of the applications of convex functions (see [64, 47]). Inequalities play a important role in almost all fields of mathematics. Several applications of inequalities are found in various area of sciences such as, physical, natural, engineering sciences. In numerical analysis, inequalities play a main role in error estimates of different important integrals whom analytic solutions could not be found. In recent years, a number of authors have considered extensions/generalizations of convex functions in various aspects and also tried to build several relations like HemiteHadamard’s inequalities. We introduce different types of convexities and drive more general Hermite-Hadamard’s inequalities. Further, we derive Ostrowski, Hermite-Hadamard and Simpson, Fejer type inequalities. Also, we discuss applications of these classes such that we can estimate the integrals like Rab x ex n dx; Rab sin xnxdx for n ≥ 1 and a, b ∈ (0, ∞) etc without using numerical analysis. In first chapter, we give information about convex functions, Log-convex functions, Quasi-convex functions, (s, m)-convex functions in second sense and Preinvex functions. In second chapter, we consider the class of harmonically convex functions and investigate some relations between harmonically convex and classical convex functions. We define class of harmonically (s, m)-convex functions which unify the different harmonic convexities and establish Ostrowski, Hemite-Hadamard and Simpson, and Fejer type inequalities for this class of functions. In third chapter, we define the classes of the harmonically p-convex functions which is a generalization of convex functions and harmonically convex functions, and harmonically p-quasiconvex functions, and harmonically logarithmic p-convex functions. Further, we investigate relationship between harmonically p-convex, p-convex and classical convex functions. Also, we give a characterization about the relation between harmonically p-convex and harmonically convex functions. Finally, we establish Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities for harmonically p-convex functions, and inequalities for the product of harmonically p-convex functions, and inequalities for harmonically logarithmic p-convex functions. In fourth chapter, we define the class of p-preinvex functions which is generalization of preinvex and harmonically preinvex functions. We also define the notion of p-prequasiinvex and logarithmic p-preinvex functions. Moreovere, we establish Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities when the power of the absolute value of the derivative of the integrand is p-preinvex and we give results for product of two ppreinvex, and logarithmic p-preinvex functions, and Ostrowski’s type for the class of p-preinvex functions. In fifth chapter, we define harmonically (p, h, m)-preinvex functions which is generalization of harmonically preinvex functions such that preinvex and harmonically p-convex functions are its special cases. Next, we introduce the concept of harmonically logarithmic p-preinvex and harmonically p-quasipreinvex functions. Finally, we establish important and interesting results related to these classes of functions.
