An extremely well thought out and excellent essay. It gives a clear
understanding on
the socila implications of what are the traps of modernity and how it works to
the
advantage of the drawing room class in our society forgetting the escape modes
that
the so called 'poor' need to resort to thus giving rise to so called
'satanic'figures that the Monserates and Alemos are made out to be who exploit
the
opportunity to expinge their personal reputations which had kept them
subservient to
the snobbery of the again so called 'elite' classes. I have as an 'outsider'
watched
the political and social scenes of Goa and what Jason has written does make a
lot of
no all sense. Anita mathew.
