    [13 May, 2005] RAJYA SABHA time, they had to seil at a lesser price. So, they had bigger loss. So, this was exactly what the Spices Board was attempting to do, that is, to tell the farmers that international prices are going down. Sir, today, Kerala is the larget producer, Kerala is one of the most enlightened States. They all have access to everything on the Net. World prices, the movement of world prices, what is happening all over the world, what is the demand of the world, etc. all this is available on the net. And , I am sure, farmers are now alive to this situation of increased production and falling prices. The Government has taken some steps for enlightening farmers, for advising farmers, and which the Government of India will continue to do, I will be happy if there is any specific suggestion ...(Interruptions)..

  • Institutionalizing Unsustainability the Paradox of Global Climate Governance Hayley Stevenson
    Institutionalizing Unsustainability The Paradox of Global Climate Governance Hayley Stevenson Published in association with the University of California Press “Presents a compelling and novel argument: that collective efforts to combat climate change have actually contrib- uted to less sustainable modes of industrial growth. Much work has looked at the details of national and international climate change policy, but no one has addressed whether any of this effort is likely to make a real difference, and what the broader factors are that account for policy changes. Will be attractive both for scholars of climate change and for policy makers.” PETER HAAS, University of Massachusetts, Amherst Climate change is a global phenomenon that requires a global response, and yet climate change governance depends on the ability of individual states to respond to a long-term, uncertain threat. Although states are routinely criticized for their inability to respond to such threats, the problems that arise from their attempts to respond are frequently overlooked. Focusing on the experiences of India, Spain, and Australia, Hayley Stevenson shows how these countries have struggled to integrate global norms around climate change governance with their own deeply unsustainable domestic systems, leading to profoundly irrational ecological outcomes. hal y Ey stevEnSon is Lecturer in International Relations at the University of Sheffield.

  • IRS Regional Brief Institute of Regional Studies – Islamabad
    IRS Regional Brief Vol. 3 / 2007 India-Pakistan Peace Process Shaheen Akhtar Research Fellow Afghanistan Arshi Saleem Hashmi Research Analyst Institute of Regional Studies – Islamabad 1 IRS India-Pakistan Peace Process Regional August-September 2007 Brief Shaheen Akhtar Although the peace process has slowed down, yet the talks on different issues taken up in the composite dialogue have continued. In the August-September period, talks were held on the issues of maritime cooperation (9-10) August and Wullar Barrage/Tulbul Navigation Project (30-31) August. With the discussions on the Wullar issue, the fourth round of the composite dialogue process stands closed and opens for political review. While the Manmohan Singh government has displayed remarkable restraint and refrained from commenting on India-Pakistan Pakistan’s political situation, New Delhi did try to capitalize Peace Process on Islamabad’s domestic problems. This was quite evident in India’s decision to throw open the disputed Siachen heights for trekking and mountaineering, revive work on the Wullar Barrarge/Tulbul Navigation project and step up allegations of cross-LoC infiltration. India and Pakistan also levelled allegations against each other for initiating arms race in the region.
