Soft cover. Zustand: New. Some time between the two World Wars, Syed Mujtaba Ali set out on ship from India to travel to Europe. Leaving Sri Lanka behind, sailing in the Arabian Sea and then along the coast of Africa, he crossed the Horn of Africa, until the ship reached Suez Port. Along the way, Ali collected a bunch of storiesabout his new young friends Paul and Percy, who became his loyal acolytes; and the eccentric Abul Asfia Noor Uddin Muhammad Abdul Karim Siddiqi, who carried toffees, a gold cigarette case, and other sundry items in his capacious overcoat pocket and who had the answer to all problems though he barely spoke a word ever. As the ship makes its way, Mujtaba Ali tells stories of the island of Socrota with its pirates in search of treasure. He dives into history and recounts how the giraffe went to China via India from Africa. And when the friends get off at Suez, in order to see the pyramids of Giza, he provides a deeply entertaining and perceptive description of Egyptfrom its taxi drivers and café owners, to pharaohs and tomb hunters. Erudite but light-hearted, brimming with laughter and with many moments of tenderness, Tales of a Voyager is a gem of a travelogue from the author who wrote the immensely popular travel account of Afghanistan, In a Land Far from Home (Deshe Bideshe). 'Syed Mujtaba Ali knows how to perform magic through his writing! One moment his humour and wit will make you break out in roaring laughter and the next you find yourself buried in deep thought being touched by the poignance in his satire.' Dhaka Tribune.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. The book India s Eastwards Thrust Predicaments and Prospects is an attempt to critically analyze India s Act East policy summed up into three Cs ; Connectivity, Commerce and Culture. There is an ambitious progress being made in India s connectivity projects linking northeast region with the ASEAN countries. These are through Land, Rail, Air, Sea and Optic Fiber Linkages. India and ASEAN partnership is making huge progress in trade and commerce inching towards the targeted five trillion economies. India and ASEAN on cultural side are building bridges of friendship through people to people and business to business contacts. The development of India s northeast region, by gaining access through Bangladesh, to develop a seamless land and sea connectivity with Myanmar and Thailand are key elements of India s Act East policy. However, China is a predominant factor in India s Eastward Thrusts. China has an overwhelming presence in in their region. Many ASEAN countries are keen to see India gain foothold in Southeast Asian region but are reluctant to openly do so for want of annoying China. As a result, due China factor, India is finding it difficult to enter into the Southeast Asian region. Then South China Sea dispute and the security of sea lanes in the Strait of Malacca are important factors in India s Eastward Thrusts. The Quadrilateral Security Dialogue between United States, Japan, Australia and India is an attempt to maintain peace in the region but each country has its own axe to grind. The success of India s Act East policy as much depends on the cooperation with the ASEAN countries as on China. So how India can manage China and woo the ASEAN countries is the litmus test of India s Eastward Thrusts. The book India s Eastwards Thrusts Predicaments and Prospects is based on ground reports from where India s Act East policy is being anchored. The critical analysis gives a realistic touch to understand the nuances of India s ambitious Act East policy of Eastwards Thrusts. In sum, there are enough predicaments in India s grandiose policy but if all of them could be managed well, there are no stopping back to India s Eastward Thrusts.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 'Post-Truth India- The Brand new Republic' picks up several themes to prove what is not true is true in India. To illustrate, the BJP government says that all its policies are for the good of the people but citizens feel they are anti-people. So what is not true is true. This is Post-Truth the swan song of contemporary India. The second argument is the Indian state has got entwined with the majoritarian religion. Nationalism is synced with the Hindu religious identity. That is to say India has moved away from the Nehruvian vision of republic and we are living in a new India-'The Brand New Republic.' The book argues that the BJP's supremacy is due to mixing religion with politics. The BJP's slogan India first is a smokescreen to say Hindu first and to further say BJP first. The BJP by saying so wants to keep the party's interest above the country's interest. A new template of politics has emerged in India riding the wave of Hindu nationalism and hate Muslim agenda. This symbolizes assertion of BJP's power on the body politics and it's promoting the cause of making India a 'Hindu Rashtra.' The book argues that India is on the cusp of choosing two opposite path. One that is currently underway, making Post-Truth India - The brand new republic, second to change the pendulum back to its centrist position. It is argued that the dialectics of materialism will guide India to a decisive path. The book sums up that the only way for peaceful coexistence is to steer the path of unity in diversity, secularism and pluralism and establish an era of peace for the prosperity of the nation.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The unity in diversity that makes South Asian culture unique is discussed in these 70 articles that detail a region marked by an asymmetry of power structure, different systems of governance, and interstate conflict but at the same time exhibits a great deal of harmony in ethnic composition, food habits, language, values, mores, and norms. A compendium of the region's development, these short essays focus on individual countries within the greater South Asian context in order to understand the dynamics that block regional integration. South Asia's inability to forge a regional identity is challenged by theories that argue the differences between countries are not as large as they seem.
