The emancipatory appeal of belonging to a nation in this era of globalization, the varied discourses on the history and social dynamics of India and their impact on Indian people, the Diasporic literature of the writers of Indian Diaspora, and the complex mindsets of postcolonial and neocolonial subjectivities are some of the many issues interrogated in this study."

The People s Linguistic Survey of India provides an overview of the extant and dying languages of India, as perceived by their speakers. It is the culmination of a nation-wide survey of languages, documented by linguists, writers, social activists and, most importantly, members of different speech communities. The work chronicles the evolution of these languages until 2011 and incorporates their socio-political and cultural dimensions. Critically, it encapsulates the world view of the speakers of the languages. Diasporic communities strive to find or forge a language that speaks of their specific cultural experience, which is a blend of loss and discovery. Diaspora language, therefore, is characterised by both resilience and compliance. Considering the heterogeneity of the Indian diaspora, it is not surprising that the status of Indian languages varies significantly in different diasporic locations. The contributors to the present volume, who are located in different parts of the world, explore a range of language situations and histories. They provide a conceptual overview of native languages in non-native lands, and analyses of one language in multiple locations, multiple languages in one location, and other such complex contexts. The volume covers language situations in locations such as Trinidad, East Africa, USA, Canada, Singapore and the Arabian Gulf. This volume, the forty-seventh in the series People s Linguistic Survey of India, seeks to capture the language experience in a diasporic location, and to offer a snapshot, a state-of-the-language report. …

Policy implications and suggestions. References. Index. Determining the disparities between rural and urban areas is apparently more difficult than it appears since it is possible to redefine what is urban and what is rural. Governments in Asia use different definitions for urban areas and do not define rural areas treating them as the undefined residual. An area is designated as urban when it crosses a certain population limit (for example 5 000 inhabitants) or when its population density reaches to a certain level (for example 1 000 per square kilometre). Small changes in criteria can have a considerable impact on the urbanization level of a country. Rather than defining rural and urban in geographical or demographic terms it is desirable to look at the character of the rural and urban society and its economy. Economists define an area as urban when the economy is characterized by non extractive occupations for example industry commerce that benefit particularly from a high population density and the accompanying infrastructure. Sociologically urban may typify wider but less personal and social relations and a lifestyle characterized by individualism anonymity and a segmentation of life. However improved transport and the relative reduction in transport costs have made it easier to commute between an urban area and its surrounding rural areas or to temporarily migrate from rural to urban areas. Resultantly an increasing number of people find temporary or permanent urban employment in the urban areas while living or at least being registered to live in a rural area. 220 pp. …

Several recent studies on the causes of poor performance of agriculture often relate to WTA and its likely adverse implications against promise. It is also a fact that WTO agreements are now a reality and these agreements can only be modified. The global scenario in future is going to become more competitive and the pressure for liberalization of Indian domestic market would also grow. In this context it is thought appropriate to critically analyze the implementation experience of WTO provisions on Indian agriculture. This is because it facilitates to compare the realities faced so far against the myths hypothesized at the time of formation of WTO. An attempt was made in this direction by analyzing the prospects and retrospects for India with reference to exports imports net trade explore competitiveness SPS measures AMS requirements etc. in the context of WTO and comparative picture was drawn with reference to pre WTO regime. This facilitates Indian in taking active part in the future negotiations to its advantage with sound arguments and for designing the policies and economic activities for sustainable agricultural development. Further it facilitates to devise appropriate domestic policies and strategies identification of strengths and weaknesses of domestic produce vis a vis major competing players and to improve export competitiveness. This book is timely in the sense that it provides critical appraisal of the major issues of Indian agricultural trade and suggest the potential areas for making the Indian agricultural trade a viable perspective in the global market. This book is very useful to the post graduates and doctoral students pursuing agricultural education scientific community extension workers policy makers and planners so as to design and execute the agricultural trading politics in relevance to the global trends. 636 pp. …
