The Human Condition

In this turbulent era, our disquiet and concerns in respect of what may be called the human condition, are many. In these Narsingh Narain Memorial Lectures delivered by eleven eminent thinkers, some of these concerns have been forcefully brought out. The reflections here, however do not merely express the fears and the misgivings. There are many suggestions on public policies and individual attitudes. Some of these may; work some may not. No one knows. But the message and the vision is clearly one of hope.

The Jamdani Revolution

The Jamdani Revolution is the first book to be published of an Indian envoy's diaries during a diplomatic posting. His time in Bangladesh marked the first-ever civil society overthrow of a military-backed regime in South Asia and only the second relatively bloodless revolution in the whole of Asia and only the second relatively bloodless revolution in the whole of Asia. The political parties that brought down General Ershad in 1990 found it impossible to sink their differences and establish democratic institutions; a problem that continues to this day in this space of three years, there were three presidents in Bangladesh and four Prime Ministers in India, and bilateral issues between India and Bangladesh were intensely politicized on both sides of the border.

Understanding Nepal

Arguably one of the most diverse countries in the world, the plurality of Nepal has been a great revelation since the onset of democracy in 1990s. This work engages the historic transition of Nepal from a monolithic Hindu kingdom to a multicultural democracy. However, the new political class, the marginalized majority of non-caste ethnic groups, as well as the oppressed religious and caste minorities often found themselves caught in the interstices of the old and the new in negotiating this transitional terrain. Muslims in Nepal are the perfect example of such a group in transition. Classically the other religion in an overwhelmingly Hindu-Buddhist-Animist cultural set-up the Muslims are one group which has the potential to disrupt the linear histories and cultural totalities of a society where a Hindu monarchy has served as the fountainhead of power for more than two countries..

Global War On Terror

The aim of the Military Affairs series is to add to a nationwide debate on the security policies of India. And the intellectual pluralism that stems from this could, in turn, provide India's politico-bureaucratic elite an idea of the right direction. Until recently a large number of India's politicians and the people they represent, were only interested in regional issues within India's border. But that has begun to change. Across India, the media, a number of academics and intellectuals have started to debate issues of national security and military affairs. This is the start of a healthy tradition in a country, which only recently was said to be without a tradition on strategic thought.

India's Security Concerns In The Indian Ocean Region

At the cusp of the 21st century, the security of the Indian Ocean region continues to be confronted with boundless threats, more from non-traditional sources, that have obviously become manifold in the post-Cold War era. These threats emanate from non-military sources like drug-trafficking, frequent cross-border terrorism, proliferation of small arms. This book examines these aspects vis-à-vis the security of the Indian Ocean. it lays emphasis on the fact that these sources of threat to security are inherent within the region and so their containment is only feasible through increased economic interaction and cooperation on security-related issues among the member countries through Indian Ocean Rim Association for Regional Cooperation (IOR-ARC). It also examines India's threat perceptions and its capabilities to meet those threats and its role in the IOR-ARC.
