Globalisation and Foreign Direct Investment/D.N. Patil. 8. Dynamics of Foreign Direct Investment in India/Ranjan Kumar Sinha and Chandra Prakash Singh. With the advent of continuous economic reforms the economy has recorded average growth rate of around 6% in the last decade. One major reform that has taken place in the area of attracting foreign investment into India via either the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) route or from foreign institutional investors (FIIs). FDI is very stable by nature as it usually enters for long term projects. It also helps to generate employment and bring in the latest technological inventions/advancements. FIIs on the other hand usually help in developing capital markets. Entrepreneurs can tap the capital market by wooing FIIs and can thereby set up new projects or use the funds for expansion etc. However FII investment may not be very stable there can be sudden outflows if capital markets perform adversely or are expected to perform negatively. Even in the South East Asian economic crisis in countries like Thailand and Indonesia it had been the FIIs who had disturbed growth trends by creating sudden outflows of forex reserves thereby resulting in the devaluation of the local currency. The Govt. of India has set for itself the target of achieving $10 billion in FDI inflows per year. As per present guidelines FIIs can invest in shares of Indian companies subject to maximum ceiling to 24% of the issued share capital of a company. Both FDI and FIIs bring in valuable capital and must be encouraged by suitable policy amendments. The Government should consider both as the same while finalising capital expenditure for investment in companies/projects. Yet due to the factors enumerated above FDI is more suitable for a country like India as compared to FIIs as the latter is short term and volatile. Learned contributors in this book seek to explore various aspects of Foreign Direct Investment in country and how it is related to the economic development employment generation infrastructure development and the impact of FDI on a country as a whole. 178 pp.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Wetlands are transitional areas between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems where the water table is usually at or near the surface, or the land is covered by shallow water. Wetlands are among the most productive life support systems in the world and are of immense socio-economic and ecological importance to mankind. In India wetlands are distributed in different geographical regions. Wetlands play critical role in the improvement of water quality through the arrest of pollutants (organic inorganic) from direct release to the natural water bodies and by removal of sediments, production of oxygen, recycling of nutrients, and treatment of wastewater by removing nitrogen, phosphorus, bacteria and viruses. The wetlands act as habitat for fish shellfish, and for birds, mammals, reptiles amphibians, many of which are of economic value in terms of subsistence and commercial fishing, hunting and trapping. Non-consumptive uses of the wetlands, viz. bird watching, recreation, aesthetics, educational activities, and scientific research are also well recognized. Population pressures in the past few decades led to rapid utilization of natural resources for land based development. In this process wetlands were treated with contempt. Ignoring their importance, wetlands were considered obstacles in the path of progress and reservoirs of diseases. Wetlands were hence drained, filled and reclaimed for more economic gains. The rivers were dammed, regulated and channellized leading to modification or elimination of floodplains. This led to a considerable alteration of wetland habitats and the composition of associated flora and fauna. A select list of activities that affected wetlands is presented in Table - 1. In the recent past importance of wetlands has been realized by the policy makers worldover and efforts are being made to protect the wetlands from further deterioration and loss. Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is potentially one of the most valuable, inter-disciplinary and objective decision-making tools with respect to alternate routes for development, process technologies and project sites. It is an anticipatory mechanism which establishes quantitative values for parameters indicating the quality of the environment and natural systems before, during and after the proposed developmental activity, thus allowing measures ensuring environmental compatibility and economic efficacy. EIA is designed to present a clear and concise picture of all benefits and costs associated with alternative courses of action, and thus provides a mechanism for merging concerns for ecology and economics in the process of decision-making. In many cases developmental activities adversely affect wetland benefits which are of value to communities and natural processes. EIA can provide very useful information on how wetlands will be affected by the proposed developmental activities to ensure effective management of wetlands. EIA can help planners make rational decisions about resource allocation and ensure that the wetland benefits required for sustainable development are maintained. The objective of this manual is to assist project proponents, conservation activists and decision makers to identify the wetland benefits present at a particular site as also benefits which are likely to be adversely affected by a particular project activity. This would enable assessing the extent and cost of the management plan required to mitigate these impacts. With the backdrop of international conventions for wetland protection and initiatives of the Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India, manual delineates step by step procedure for EIA of developmental activities affecting wetland benefits. Worksheets that could enable preparation of case studies are included in the manual. Four casestudies prepared by the institutions that participated in the March 1995 workshop organized by the British Council, at Calcutta, have been included in the manual.

It is quite evident that both policy makers and researchers have recognized the importance of balanced regional development for bringing better fruits of development to the doorsteps of the community at large. Problems of regional disparities in India can be attributed at the outset to our colonial past. However, even in the planned development era, one can witness unbalanced regional development in the present day context as well. As India is a federation, it is likely to experience certain drawbacks of a federal system. Any federation is likely to experience both vertical as well as horizontal imbalance as far as the flow of resources to the federating units is concerned. The present volume examines regional imbalances in India. The papers also highlight the causes and come out with possible way forward for reducing regional imbalances.
