Relevance of wage goods model in the present context. 6. Conclusion and suggestions. Appendices. Selected bibliography. Index. Sophisticated models have been used to fulfil the ultimate goal of development in our plans. But the basic goal is unfulfilled even today. Wage Goods Model was presented by Prof. C.N. Vakil and Prof. P.R. Brahmananda as an alternative to Mahalanobis model at the time of launching the Second Five Year Plan of India. The Wage Goods Model and its theoretical cum practical implications have been developed further by Prof. Brahmananda in his more or less continuous sequence of writings. The model has been getting wide support in the academic circle. But at the official level the influence of the model has been minimal despite the poor performance of the economy and the non practical nature of the policies pursued. The policy makers and the authorities have worked on their own hunches and intuitions. The book has evaluated the multi dimensions of the Wage Goods Model controversy in India. The book is a must for planners and policy makers scholars and students and all who have interest in development economics. 86 pp.

The United States and the human rights issue. 6. India Pakistan the road ahead. Annexures. Bibliography. Index. The western powers in general and US in particular have been raising the bogey of Human Rights violation against India and now against Pakistan too. But we know it is merely a case of the pot calling the kettle black. We are aware of their double standards of how the self styled champions of human rights use this concept as ideological stick to beat others with. Even the west based human rights groups like Amnesty International are biased in their reporting. While year after year they have condemned the Government of India for its policies in Kashmir but until recently there has been hardly any condemnation of Pakistan despite proof of its motivating training and financing the militants. Similarly there has been constant pressure on the Indian Government Bodies like the Red Cross the Amnesty International to survey the policies of the Government of India in Kashmir. But not once has a demand been made for permission to survey the training camps being run by the Pakistan Government. Both India and Pakistan should realise that neither foreign policy is serving the interests of their nations. As long as they are at loggerhead others will only try to take advantage of their hostilities. 219 pp.

Since the beginning of the planning era of India the planners and policy makers are emphasising on the socio economic development of the underdeveloped areas that may grow at the same pace with overall development of the economy. Appropriate studies are lacking to answer all the questions related to this problem of Indian economy. The present book is an attempt to show the nature of spatial development in India during the plan period with an improved methodology that measures the extent and causes of socio economic disparities of its regions while indicating general level of development of the whole economy. On the basis of seventeen indicators a case study has been done for the State of West Bengal. In addition to its economic content the methodological contribution of the study should prove to be useful to the policy makers scholars and to the students of economics. 169 pp.

They are populist measures for various considerations. The book has evaluated the efficacy of the poverty alleviation programmes on the basis of micro level study with this conclusion that poverty alleviation programmes have filled the coffers of a group of people who are much above the poverty line. The book throws sufficient light on political economy of poverty and poverty alleviation programmes. Poverty has been measured in the study on the basis of head count ratio (H) Income Gap ratio (I) Ginni con efficients (G) and Amartya Sen Index (P). The book has evaluated the self employment programmes wage employment programmes and National Social Assistance Programmes separately and in that process limiting factors in way of poverty alleviation programmes have been identified. The book will be of interest to policy makers teachers and students of economics and all others who have interest in the economics of poverty in India. 166 pp.

Spiritualism. 7. Famous quotes on death. Index. The concept of life after death and reincarnation has always remained the center of attraction for both the intellectuals and also for the layman. Many philosophies and many doctrines have cropped up around the world on the issues related to life and death life after death and reincarnation. Superstitious individuals have always rejected the scientific experiments related to life after death on one side and on the other side the followers of scientific logical approach have always rejected mythology and religious scriptures. This book explains every aspect of life after death and reincarnation in the simplest language enabling everyone to understand the real meaning of death and reincarnation. It is true that no one wants to die but the fundamental truth is that no one can ever be able to win over death. Death cannot restricted nor can individual live forever with this physical body. We must accept the fact that the good deeds and actions of an individual give him or her the importance to be remembered forever. Self imposed intellectuals have always rejected the notion that reincarnation is possible but from time to time the human society has seen and experienced situations where people come back and tell stories related to previous lives. This book can work as a simple guide to know more about the concept of life after death. Beginning with the concept of search moving towards spirit's voyage after passing away resurrection and judgement spirit after death doctrine of reincarnation spiritualism and ending with famous quotes on death. This book is not embattled towards any specific target group and it is assumed that this might help the individual reader in understanding the secretive concept of spiritualism and mysticism with ease and without irrational debugging of brain. 210 pp.

Globalism has come to be accepted as the dominant world philosophy for the twenty first century. Globalisation is not a new phenomenon but extension of the policy of colonisation which started with the Industrial revolution in England. The author has traced the history of colonialism from the eighteenth century and linked it up with the present phase of globalisation. While analysing the industrial revolution in Britain he has also analysed the process of industrialization in France Germany and the U.S.A. The two world wars were the result of competition for world hegemony required for continuation of industrial revolution in the west. Two world wars intervened before an American centred world economy replaced a British centred one World Bank and I.M.F the Guardians of World Monetary System have played a major role in this direction. Signs of world depression are evident and serious differences have surfaced between U.S.A. and Britain on the one side and on the other France and Germany where the economic miracle has already run out of steam giving credence to the theory that miracles are only short lived. Colonialism is essentially an economic phenomenon and has outlived its formal political end. Economics and politics being closely inter related economic globalisation will also lead to political globalisation with consequent loss of national sovereignty. Globalisation process consists of development of a strong centre with dominant states and a weak periphery of third world countries. The process of globalisation consists of globalisation of resources of the world for the benefit of a small section of people who control the levers of power. The picture if globalisation is one of increased unemployment and poverty throughout the world while resources are being concentrated in the hands of the few through global control of technology. A technology and trade control regime has been ushered in through Dunkel Report of 1991 and subsequent World Trade Organisation Agreement of 1994. This will not be in the interest of developing countries and particularly for India where population constitutes the main resource. Technological redundancy which is one of the main features of globalisation will hit the people hard. The author has supported his analysis and findings by thorough research. The book opens up an entirely new chapter on globalisation which will be of interest to academics policy makers and general public who are interested in the future of the country and the world at large. 301 pp.

Bibliography. Index. Global trade has crossed all barriers. Intellectual property law is now an indispensable part of economic laws throughout the whole world. The different branches of intellectual property law patents trademarks designs copyrights creativity etc. confer legal exclusivity in the market place. A balance between protection of intellectual property rights over such knowledge and their quick dissemination and assimilation in the productive enterprise is essential for continued growth of the country's economy. International negotiations about intellectual property poliferate but legal protection is still at base a matter for the domestic laws of nation states. Almost all the countries of the world have enacted laws as for safeguard of the intellectual property on the domestic front. As transnational business grows so the experts need to have acquaintance with IPR laws of all.

This is a commercial age and the concept of commerce has undergone a radical change almost in every part of the world. Business through internet (E commerce) is now an accepted mode of commerce. With the passage of time there has been a change in instrumentalities of commerce. There has been a change in the standard of morals and therefore there has been a shift in the doctrine of res extra commercium also. While discussing the allocation of powers in relation to trade and commerce it has been tried to ascertain as to where the E commerce would lie. When constitutions of either of the countries under examination (U.S.A. Canada Australia and India) were being drafted the constitution makers could not have visualised this type of instrumentality of commerce. The discussion of internet and its resultant E commerce and VAT are of special interest for both federal state scholars and economists. The book is thought provoking and full of sparks as it touches many issues which are emerging and are controversial but are becoming most pressing in view of new emerging trends due to globalization. Emerging and imperative issue discussed in the book is VAT (Value Added Tax). It is successfully working in some federations as well as in European countries. In India states are apprehensive of the erosion of their fiscal autonomy and therefore they are resisting its implementation. However in view of emerging internet culture the need of VAT will be more welcome. Keeping in view the crumbling barriers of geographical boundaries in the age of globalization and the need of the federating units not to depart from regulatory measures on trade and commerce the book is the need of hour for lawyers economists professionals and policy makers. 292 pp.

Cooperative legislation has been receiving attention of the government at various points of time with the basic objective of involving people at the grassroot level so as to help them in availing the facilities provided by the cooperatives. The societies formed under the cooperative legislation acquire legal status and are permitted to raise funds and carry on business in a corporate character. The raising numerical strength of cooperative institutions the large number of sectors in which they are functioning their extended territorial and membership coverage their higher command over financial resources and expanded volume and variety of their operations call for a careful and better understanding of the Cooperative Societies Act and also of Related Laws applicable in their working and dealings. The working of a cooperative society and the application of the special law enacted for the purpose are to a considerable extent dependent upon the provisions of several other laws. A cooperator working in cooperative institutions therefore should not only have knowledge of the Cooperative Societies Act but also the knowledge of related laws which are applicable to cooperative institutions. The present book provides first aid guidance to a cooperator to enable him to associate himself and run a cooperative institution without any legal flaw. The growing diversified activities and the growing consciousness of members of a cooperative with regard to their rights and liabilities in relation to their institutions have made it all the more necessary for cooperators to know related laws related to cooperatives. The present book is definitely an improvement over the existing literature available on the subject. This book is the first of its kind on the subject. It is expected that the book would prove useful to all those who are interested in the study of cooperative laws. 265 pp.

Establishment on both the national and international levels of machinery to assess new technologies to give warning of possible dangers to human rights which they may present and possible even to control new developments if threats to human rights seem likely has also been proposed. A function of international machinery would be to call the attention of government which has no national machinery to the need for it to assist governments in establishing appropriate machinery and to provide the international structure to support it. For achieving the better meaningful human life collaboration among the members of the global village and scientific community may become more useful if a clear sense of common purpose can be agreed in setting up ethical guidelines for scientific technological research development and its protection. There is a widespread feeling that the explosion of scientific knowledge and of its technological application which has taken place in recent decades has made the world merely a global village. However there are a few common problems which are continuing in the global village specially treated to better living conditions for the human beings. For example protection of the intellectual property rights reducing international tension and common use of natural resources like oceans particularly for land locked countries basic human rights and its discriminatory clauses are the vital aspects of the law. These problems are alike in the global village. An attempt has been made to discuss these aspects in a suggestive manner. Role of the legislature judges and lawyers has also been held highly responsible in shaping and reshaping of their society and social structure. Finally it is felt that the contribution of each and everyone will ultimate enhance the enjoyment of living of millions the right to an adequate standard of living and dignity of human beings as guaranteed in all the basic documents relating to the human rights and fundamental freedoms. 104 pp.

This book Natural Resources and Economic Development is focused on the role use and management of natural resources in context of economic development in general and that of Orissa in particular in view of the fact that in spite of abundant natural resources the state remains at the bottom ladder of economic growth. Proper utilization of land water forests fisheries and minerals can bring sustainable economic development for the state. Attempts have been made by the authors to examine the link between natural resources and economic development as such and also to suggest some practical development strategies in this context. Both conservation and utilization of natural resources are suggested for a sustained growth strategy. Proper management of soil and water for improving land productivity along with water conservation is considered vital in an agriculturally predominant economy. Role of forests in economic development can not be denied especially where the livelihood of a lot of tribal and rural people depends on forestry. Issues like conservation of forests regeneration of degraded forests and utilization of forest products for people's sustained livelihood have been focused. Similarly fisheries and other resources can be taken care of. Mineral reserves in Orissa is a well known fact. While utilization of mineral resources for industrializing Orissa is to be seriously considered impact of mining and setting up of industries on the life and livelihood of people can not be ignored. After all economic well being of the people of Orissa is the ultimate goal. 220 pp.

Best practices of environment management. 7. Conclusions and suggestions. Bibliography. Index. The purpose of environment management is to help improve practices of environment management where this subject has received scant attention. India's environmental problems are gaining global significance because of the rapid population growth the aggressive speed of urbanization and lack of infrastructure. This consequently puts tremendous pressure on the natural resources and therefore the need to strike a balance between the economic development and the urgency to safeguard the environment. Corporate annual reports are the main vehicle that communicates the operating performance and other relevant information of a company to its various interested parties. It is also the major source that provides information on the effectiveness of the accomplishments of managers in meeting their fiduciary duties and carrying out their stewardship functions. Accordingly corporate annual reports are expected to provide all necessary information required by their various users. The corporations in the developed economies closely link their performance with the extent quality and timeliness of environmental disclosure. The increasing trend towards liberalization and globalization demands increased integration and the convergence to global environment reporting and accounting standards. Therefore it is not only important for the companies to be transparent accountable and socially responsible but also to ensure adequate returns to the shareholders and satisfy various stakeholders and society at large about their conduct. This book deals with the environmental management strategies and environmental disclosure practices of various corporate enterprises in Malaysia Singapore and India. This book will of great help to the policy planners in the field of environment management academicians corporate professionals and all those concerned with environmental management and corporate environment disclosures by companies. 178 pp.

In any sphere of activity efficiency is the ratio of the result achieved to the means used. When one says that something is efficient it means that it is capable of producing a desired effect and that it is not unequal to a task. The state of business finance shows the quality of skills and the degree of success achieved in the performance of financial operations of an enterprise. The performance of business enterprises in the area of business finance has been the subject of considerable discussion criticism and controversy. There are a number of enterprises whose performance cannot by any standard be called satisfactory. On the other hand there are enterprises which manage their financial affairs very efficiently. The difference in the performance of different enterprises indicates that the business enterprises in themselves are not inefficient and there is considerable scope for improvement. So it becomes altogether more important that the performance of different business enterprises should be carefully evaluated from time to time and corrective measures should be taken if necessary. The present book highlights the importance of an efficient financial management in a business enterprise. An attempt has been made to give an insight to the readers into the various concepts and practices of business finance in business enterprises today. The book will be useful not only to the academic community but also to the entire corporate world. 259 pp.
