The world is experiencing a strategic transition from the short-lived post-Cold War unipolar system to a new and complex configuration of international relations. In this fast-changing global scenario, the important role of South Asia has come to be felt more than ever before. South Asia, which consists of eight States and more than one-fifth of the world's population, has emerged as a vital region in the emerging global order due to its geo-strategic significance, growing economic dynamism, fragile State structures, and crisis in governance. This book contains 16 research articles that provide deep insights into the complex and multi-faceted nature of South Asia in the globalized world. These essays have been authored by scholars representing the disciplines of international relations, comparative politics, economics, security studies, and political economy.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. Contents: 1. Energy security: strategies and institutional set up. 2. Electricity generation, transmission and distribution. 3. Coal resources and utilization. 4. Petroleum and natural gas. 5. Renewable energy sources. 6. Atomic power for civil use. 7. Energy-environment linkages. Bibliography. Index. The availability of cheap, abundant and regular power supply is an essential condition for development. If India is to move to a higher growth rate, it must ensure reliable availability of energy-particularly electric power and petroleum products-at internationally competitive prices. India cannot compete effectively in world markets unless critical energy inputs are available in adequate quantities and at appropriate prices. India faces formidable challenges in meeting its energy needs and providing adequate and varied energy of desired quality to users in a sustainable manner and at reasonable costs. The country needs economic growth for human development, which in turn requires access to clean, convenient and reliable energy for all. Achieving an efficient configuration of the various forms of energy requires consistency in the policies governing each sector and consistency in the pricing of different types of energy. There is also a need for clarity in the direction in which India wants to move in respect of energy security, energy conservation and environmental concerns.

India is a regional power, a nascent global power and a potential superpower. India has a growing international influence and a prominent voice in global affairs. After India gained Independence from the United Kingdom in 1947, it strongly supported independence movements in other colonies. Jawaharlal Nehru, India s first Prime Minister, was the architect of India s foreign policy. During the Cold War, India adopted a foreign policy of not aligning itself with any major power bloc. However, India developed close ties with the Soviet Union and received extensive military support from it. The end of the Cold War significantly affected India s foreign policy, as it did for much of the world. In the post-Cold War era, a significant aspect of India s foreign policy is the Look East Policy launched in 1992. India s growing economy, strategic location, and a large and vibrant Diaspora have won it more allies and partners. India has friendly relations with several countries in the developing world. The foreign policy of Prime Minister Narendra Modi indicates a shift towards focusing on the Asian region and, more broadly, trade deals. This volume contains 9 research articles, authored by scholars in the field of political science, international relations, comparative politics, economics, security studies and political economy. These contributions provide useful material to understand contemporary dynamics of India s foreign policy and diplomacy.

Associations in democracies: some theoretical issues in the Indian context/Praveen Kumar. Index. India is a federal parliamentary democratic republic. The Constitution defines the organization, powers and limitations of the Central and State Governments. India has a multi-party system, consisting of various types of national as well as regional political parties. Political parties represent different sections and regions and play a major role in the politics of India. Through the electoral process, the people of India choose their representatives to run the government. There is a widespread perception in the country that disparities amongst states, and regions within states, between urban and rural areas, and between various sections of the community, have been steadily increasing in the past few years. The gains of rapid growth witnessed in recent past have not reached all parts of the country and all sections of the people in an equitable manner. That this perception is well-founded is borne by available statistics on a number of indicators. Widening income differentials between more developed and relatively poorer states is a matter of serious concern. Livelihood options in rural areas are also limited as agriculture does not provide adequate returns and industry is virtually absent leading to limited trade and services. People seeking employment in low skill and hence low paying jobs is a common manifestation of these constraints in many rural areas. In short, the pattern of economic development over the years has left in its trail a variety of inequalities which have caused socio-politico tensions. The present volume contains 11 papers-authored by scholars in the field-which provide an in-depth analysis of various issues confronting the Indian economy, and how they are to be resolved within the democratic framework of the country.

India was the largest importer of defence equipment in 2014 with Russia, Israel, France and the United States being the top foreign suppliers of military equipment. The Government of India has launched Make-in-India initiative to indigenize manufacturing and reduce dependence on imports, including defence imports and procurement. The beginning of the 21st century saw reorientation of India on the global stage from a regional role in the sub-continent to a major role in the Indian Ocean region stretching from Gulf of Aden to the Malacca Strait. Contemporary criticisms of the Indian military have drawn attention to several issues, such as obsolete equipment, lack of adequate ammunition, and inadequate research and development due to over-reliance on foreign imports. In the context of defence preparedness, national security means that a government should protect the state and its citizens against all kind of national crises through a variety of power projections such as political power, diplomacy, economic power, military might, and so on. Elements of national security include: (a) military security, (b) political security, (c) economic security, (d) environmental security, (e) security of energy and natural resources, and (f) cyber security. National Security Council (NSC) of India is an executive government agency tasked with advising the Prime Minister s office on matters of national security and strategic interest. The three-tiered structure of the NSC comprises of the Strategic Policy Group, the National Security Advisory Board and a Secretariat represented by the Joint Intelligence Committee (JIC). This volume contains 10 research articles, authored by experts in the field, which provide deep insights into the defence and national security preparedness and concerns of India.

Governance is a theoretical concept referring to the actions and processes by which stable practices and organizations arise and persist. These actions and processes may operate in formal and informal organizations of any size; and they may function for any purpose. Conceiving of governance in this way, one can apply the concept to states, corporations, NGOs, partnerships, and any number of humans engaged in some purposeful activity. The World Bank defines governance as the manner in which power is exercised in the management of a country s economic and social resources for development . Better governance is crucial for translating the large development and welfare expenditure of the public authorities into enduring outcomes on the ground. While there is general appreciation that development programmes have the right objectives, their implementation on the ground is poor. Implementation of programmes can be improved through a multi-faceted approach relying on professionalization of public service delivery, total quality management (TQM), and innovative use of digital and other technologies which improve monitoring and supervision. It can also be improved through: (a) greater emphasis on social mobilisation and capacity building, (b) strengthening of local institutions and (c) building deeper partnerships with civil society organisations and the community to determine the needs and aspirations of the people.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About the Book:-Management of natural disasters is necessary not only when disasters occur or in their aftermath; but also for adequate preparedness, mitigation, risk reduction and risk management with proper planning taking place well before and after the disaster. The authors describe the lessons learned from disaster response in India and at the global level in a format that can be understood well. The authors analyze the role of local administration and the crucial role of the local community and various other stakeholders in areas of disaster response, recovery and reconstruction. The authors suggested that the participation of the civil society and governmental and semi-governmental organizations in disaster management activities are inevitable and should be incorporated in the post disaster response phase. This book infers that local self-governments have a pivotal role to play in planning and providing essential aid not only in the post disaster phase but also in the disaster preparedness and mitigation phases.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. With the rise of China and India as significant players in global political, economic and security architecture, the centre of gravity of international relations has gradually shifted from Europe and North America to the Asian region in the 21st Century. This global power shift has also led to a significant change in politics of powerful countries and the balance of power system. Major powers are trying to re-adjust their policies to maximize advantages and minimize the costs of this change. The increasing power aspirations of China and its more assertive posture in Asia has thrown open many challenges to India's foreign policy. To overcome these challenges, India too is redefining its position and roleboth at the regional and global level. Being the world's largest democracy and a growing economic power, emerging India is aspiring for a more proactive role in regional and global politics along with China. China's incursion into South and Southeast Asia has been a cause of worry for the Indian policy makers who fear that an Asia under the Chinese hegemony may impede India's ambition of becoming a global power and severely curtail its regional influence. There is also the border issue with Pakistan that has complicated the relationship between the two Asian giants. At the same time, both the nations are experiencing an unparalleled overlapping of interests in the drastically shifting economic, political and strategic environment. This book contains 13 research papers authored by scholars on Indo-China relations. Their in-depth analysis of varied aspects of relations between the two countries provides valuable inputs on the subject of topical interest.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The book is an attempt to examine the implications of the nuclear deterrence strategies of India, Pakistan and China in a fast changing security environment in South Asian region. The region is fast getting sucked into the vortex of terrorism and weapons of mass destruction (WMD) proliferation. Deterrence, as an element in national strategy or diplomacy, is certainly nothing new under the sun. It is an old practice in international politics and other areas of behaviour. However, it has received new significance with the development of the atomic bomb. Deterrence describes an ongoing interaction between two parties. In a deterrent relationship, one or both parties seek to persuade the other to refrain from dangerous actions by threatening that the costs of acting will far outweigh the benefits. After China tested a nuclear weapon in 1964, the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) was established in 1970 to prohibit other states from acquiring these destructive armaments. It was expected that China would be the last nuclear state in the world. However, in l974, India, a non-signatory to the NPT, detonated its peaceful nuclear device, alarming the international community. As a result, the nuclear states adopted a more cautious approach to supplying nuclear materials that could have dual use. The Indian nuclear test was a catalyst for the creation of the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) in 1975. While concerted efforts by the nuclear powers were underway to control the spread of nuclear weapons, India, Pakistan, and Israel were suspected of serious steps toward developing nuclear weapons in the 1970s and 1980s. In May 1998, India and Pakistan both came out of the closet and declared their nuclear status to the world by conducting underground nuclear tests. Thereafter, the nuclear triangle of China-India-Pakistan presents the only example of its kind in which three nuclear neighbours share disputed borders that have resulted in wars and continued violence and terrorism.
