Caste Ideology and Interaction

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McGilvray, Dennis B., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, Following the publication of the book by E. R. Leach, ed., Aspects of Caste in South India, Ceylon and North-West Pakistan (), much additional information was gathered on caste hierarchies in South Asia, and two major attempts were made to identify the underlying unity of this material - a structuralist one by Louis Dumont and a ethnosocialogical one by McKim Marriott et al. This quest for unity seemed attractive, yet at the same time, as the contributions to the present volume indicate, premature. The four papers collected here and published in are all concerned with caste ideology and caste interaction in different locales of South Asia.

The Changing Capital Markets of East Asia

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cao, Ky / KY Cao, PUBLISHER: Routledge, In recent years, much attention has been given to the unparalleled economic development of East Asia. "The Changing Capital Markets of East Asia" gathers a number of contributors who explore the growing sophistication of capital markets in this area and discuss the possible economic and political consequences. Ky Cao brings together papers that analyze the recent changes in the emerging capital markets of East Asia and the implications that these changes may have for the international and regional capital markets in general. The volume explores global trends and their impact on the region; the changing patterns of capital market activity including the emergence of equity markets; the development of new frameworks of taxation and accounting; and provides case studies of South Korea and Taiwan. In challenging conventional thinking regarding the investigation of East Asian issues, which is usually local in nature, "The Changing Capital Markets of East Asia" provides a rounded view of East Asia's markets via the forces of domestic politics and history as well as of external structural changes.

Population and Development: A Critical Introduction

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Furedi, Frank, PUBLISHER: St. Martin's Press, Many experts believe that population growth is the greatest threat facing humanity. This concise and provocative book discusses both sides of this debate examining the way the arguments have changed and evolved and questioning the assumptions of the main protagonists. Frank Furedi argues that the Western preoccupation with population growth reveals more about the internal concerns of Western societies than the socio-economic development of the South. Examining a broad range of key debates and controversies -- the population bomb in Asia, the culture of a distinct regime of African fertility, the role of education in stabilizing population growth in Kerala -- he contends that the marginalization of the goal of development is the outcome of a narrow concern with population policies.

Southern Political Party Activists: Patterns of Conflict and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Prysby, Charles L. / Clark, John A., PUBLISHER: University Press of Kentucky, " The South continues to be the most distinctive region in American politics. Over the last half century, Democratic dominance in the South has given way to the emergence of a truly competitive two-party system that leans Republican in presidential elections. In some ways, the region is increasingly like the rest of the country, yet even the degree of change and the speed with which it occurred give the South a distinctive air. The contributors to Southern Political Party Activists examine both the development of American political party organizations and the changing political character of the South, focusing on grassroots party activists-those who are involved in party organizations at the county level. John A. Clark is associate professor of political science at Western Michigan University. Charles L. Prysby is professor of political science at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
