While giving a global framework the author presents an Indian perspective to the entire phenomenon. 290 pp.…

This book constitutes an attempt to construct a profile of migrants from Kerala to the Gulf region on the basis of an extensive of survey of return emigrants and their households. The purpose of this study was to understand the demographic and socio economic characteristics of the emigrants at the various stages of emigration process prior to emigration during stay abroad and after return to Kerala Another important aspect which is discussed is the costs and returns of emigration the working and living conditions of emigrants in the destination region the pattern of utilization of remittances back home and the problems of rehabilitation that the emigrants encounter after return. While emigration in large numbers has assuaged the pain of massive unemployment in Kerala to a significant extent raised the income levels of thousands of emigrants households by way of remittances these processes have not led to a developmental take off of the Kerala economy. While it is the duty of the government to help the returned emigrants whose emigration ended up in disaster and economic ruin (who constitute about one fifth of the returned emigrants) the Government may not find it justifiable to introduce social welfare programmes for the rest of them. However the government may think of organizing welfare schemes and forming cooperatives of returned emigrants for undertaking projects which they will be in a position to fulfill with discipline and dedication. 198 pp.…

Hardback. Zustand: New. This is the first book to provide detailed analysis of the relationship between higher education and scientific research in key Third World countries. Focusing on four of the most successful of the newly industrializing countries--Malaysia, Taiwan, South Korea, and Singapore--the authors examine the intersection between outstanding economic development in these four countries and the higher education and research establishments they have developed. The study combines careful analysis of the current status of scientific research in higher education with detailed ethnographic case studies of scientific work.Based upon a two-year research effort sponsored by the National Science Foundation, the study presents a multifaceted approach to the subject, evaluating for each country: the organization of the universities and other scientific institutions; the scientists and administrators who work in these institutions; the research productivity and the relationship of basic research to applied uses in industry and commerce; the interactions of these institutions with scholars from Western Europe, Japan, and North America. The authors demonstrate that the nations under study are rapidly building a sophisticated scientific infrastructure and clearly recognize the importance of science for development. The book concludes with an enlightening discussion of how scientists publish their findings in these countries.…
