South Asia consists of states with divergent political systems and perceptions and yet with social cultural and ethnic affinities. While good neighbourly relations among the main actors of the region have been elusive still the desire for collective self reliance and development has brought these states together and though belatedly resulted in the evolution of SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation). The success and failure of SAARC depends on various complex factors both internal and external governing the intra regional relations of South Asia. In fact a proper understanding of SAARC its evolution its past track record and its future prospects is possible only when the whole gamut of relations are studied in their proper perspective. This book is a modest and sincere effort to assess the role performance and future prospects of the ambitious regional organisation. 244 pp.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Development is a matter on which not merely the well being but the very existence of our polity depends. Scholars and experts have undoubtedly a role to play but the more important aspect of this role is to popularise the scientific and rational outlook on the problems and to remove popular misconceptio…ns often generated by vested interests. This requires interaction of scholars with laymen and it is in this respect that the three seminars held and the volume which incorporates the proceedings can claim to make a contribution. The first part is on the social and economic aspects of development. It is followed by the second part on the application of technology. The third part is on secularism and social transformation. This volume has brought together acknowledged thinkers and scholars with journalists social activists and retired bureaucrats. The level of comprehension and even of expression of the participants has not been the same. The object of the volume is not to arrive at a consensus but to display openly the variety of views in order to stimulate thinking and thus enable the readers to exercise their own judgment. The insights provided the points of view presented and the data adduced in support thereof will help broaden the outlook and ultimately banish the misconceptions which still plague our thinking on this important subject of development. 331 pp.

Ports, transport, market and currency. 6. European traders in South Kanara (1500-1763). 7. Conclusion. Appendices. Bibliography. Index. "Craft Prod…uction and Trade in South Kanara: A.D. 1000-1763 is the revised version of the author's Ph. D. thesis. In this book an attempt has been made to analyze the major economic activities in South Kanara during the specified period. In this book, the author has used various sources like archival records including English and Portuguese documents, indigenous records such as kadatas and Tulu folklore including paddanas. This research work proves that the people of South Kanara showed keen interest in craft production, apart from agricultural production. Many craft production centres had emerged in the region during the period of study. Trade was another important occupation. Aspects such as fluctuations in trade due to emergence of political and social changes, contribution of traders to the society, items of trade, relationship between agricultural production and trade, and impact of European traders on the regional economy are delineated. This is an important contribution to the study of economic history of a South Indian region. This book is useful to the students of economic history of India.".

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. The minority question continues to be debated long since but the problem of minority goes unabated. The precise answer lies in the inadequacy of systematic and scientific study about the problem they have been facing. The problems and grievances of the minority managed educational inst…itutions have been systematically and scientifically researched and documented in this study. In the background of a global scenario this book presents a wide coverage of several states and union territories in India. The condition of education among the Buddhists and the Muslims is deplorable. The Christians, the Parsis, the Sikhs are much better as compared to the Buddhists and the Muslims. The state of professional, technical, vocational education, and education among women, particularly among the Muslims, is disheartening. This book makes an attempt to depict a picture of the plight of the minorities by pinpointing the problems and grievances of the minority educational institutions from a comparative perspective from five designated minority communities, viz., the Buddhists, the Christians, the Muslims, the Parsis, and the Sikhs. Well studied recommendations and suggestions incorporated in the book, if carried forward to the point of policy review and implementation, the problem of the minority in the exiting situations may be remedied, ultimately leading to progressive educational development among them, especially, the Buddhists ands the Muslims in India.
