  • Is There a Conditional Convergence in the Per Capita Incomes of BIMAROU States in India?
    DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS ISSN 1441-5429 DISCUSSION PAPER 03/16 Is there a conditional convergence in the per capita incomes of BIMAROU states in India? Ankita Mishra1 and Vinod Mishra2* Abstract: The stochastic income convergence hypothesis is examined for five BIMAROU (Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Orissa and Uttar Pradesh) states in India for the period 1960–2012 using univariate Lagrange multiplier (LM) unit root test that endogenously determines two structural breaks in level and/or trend of the time series. The per capita incomes of all BIMAROU states except Uttar Pradesh are found to converge to the national average per capita income in the long run. Significant structural breaks are detected in relative per capita income series of BIMAROU states. Most of the breaks spotted in the relative per capita income series seem to correspond with periods of political uncertainty and regime changes in the state elections.

    Promoting Institutional Deliveries In Rural India: The Role of Antenatal-Care Services K. S. Sugathan, Vinod Mishra, and Robert D. Retherford National Family Health Survey Subject Reports Number 20 • December 2001 International Institute for Population Sciences Mumbai, India East-West Center, Population and Health Studies Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S.A. India’s first and second National Family Health Surveys (NFHS-1 and NFHS-2) were conducted in 1992–93 and 1998–99 under the auspices of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. The surveys provide national and state-level estimates of fertility, infant and child mortality, family planning practice, maternal and child health, and the utilization of services available to mothers and children. The International Institute for Population Sciences, Mumbai, coordinated the surveys in cooperation with selected population research centres in India, the East-West Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, and ORC Macro in Calverton, Maryland. The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) provided funding for the NFHS, and United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) provided support for the preparation and publication of this report.

  • Up Until 1996, the Maoist Movement in Nepal Was in a Dormant State
    Caste, Regionalism, and Political Violence: Maoist Violence in Nepal and Bihar Paper for presentation at the Annual General Conference of the Canadian Political Science Association in London, Ontario, 3 June 2005 By Binoy Shanker Prasad, Ph.D Department of Politics, Ryerson University 350 Victoria Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5B 2K3 [email protected] This is a chapter in preparation for a book, Political Violence and Diasporas in South Asia, eds. Paul Wallace and Kavita Khoury. Please inform me before making any reference to this paper. Your comments and suggestions are welcome. Caste, Regionalism, and Political Violence: Maoist Violence in Nepal and Bihar Binoy Shanker Prasad, PhD Up until 1996, the Maoist movement in Nepal was in a dormant state. To Nepal’s south, in the central-eastern Indian state of Bihar, a strong Left movement has its history since the 1930s. Nepal -- until the surge of global democratization in early 1990s – was regarded largely as a quiet Himalayan Hindu kingdom with its docile citizenry and exotic tourist spots. Bihar, on the other hand, has seen many ups and downs in its democratic experience since 1947, including the politics of revolutionary (Marxist-Maoist) violence. In the post 9/11 international scene of political violence and terrorism, if a couple of stories have to be picked up from South Asia, usually secession-violence in Kashmir or the Tamil-Sinhalese ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka get most of the attention. The strategic location, ferocity or the head-count usually determine international consciousness. Also, people tend to go where the media take them. So, buried under the major international headlines related to violence and upheavals of the day are other ongoing stories either ignored or given least priority to.

  • Examining Income Convergence Among Indian States: Time Series Evidence with Structural Breaks
    DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS ISSN 1441-5429 DISCUSSION PAPER 44/15 Examining Income Convergence among Indian States: Time Series Evidence with Structural Breaks Ankita Mishra1 and Vinod Mishra2* Abstract: This paper examines the stochastic income convergence hypothesis for seventeen major states in India for the period from 1960 to 2012. Our panel of states exhibit cross-sectional dependence and structural breaks in their per capita incomes. By including these two features in a unified testing framework, we find evidence to support the income convergence hypothesis for Indian states. The paper also suggests that the failure of other studies to find evidence of income convergence in Indian states may arise from their not taking into account potential structural breaks in the income series. Most structural breaks in relative income correspond to important events in Indian history at the national or regional level.

Introduction Economic growth models based on new growth theory envision poor countries/regions catching up with rich countries/regions in terms of gross domestic product (GDP)/capita levels (or income per capita). These economic growth models are based on the belief that economies grow when the capital per hour worked increases and technological improvements take place.

At State, District and Block levels, there is vast practical experience and huge potential of innumerable local innovations on how to achieve collective behaviour change. Rapid and timely approaches for learning are vital for quality and sustainability. The Rapid Action Leaming (RAL) Workshops outlined in these Guidance Notes are an efficient means for sharing of innovation, good practices and lessons learnt. Their essence must lie in sharing and learning horizontally between peers working on the SBM(G). These RAL workshops may be considered for adoption at all levels for capacity building and learning. They are a way to further enhance the quality and sustainability of implementation.

  • The Ironies of Indian Maoism Jairus Banaji
    The ironies of Indian Maoism Jairus Banaji Editor’s introduction “A spectre is haunting South Asia—the spectre of Maoism,” the Financial Times rather melodramatically announced in April 2006, reporting that the Indian prime minister, Manmohan Singh, had described Maoist guer- rillas as “the single greatest threat to Indian national security”. The scale of the Maoist-led insurgency in rural India has surprised and alarmed ruling classes for whom Marxism-Leninism was supposed to have been safely confined to the dustbin of history after 1989. The Indian Maoists have also become a subject of discussion on the left both in India and internationally. In particular, a recent article by the writer and campaigner Arundhati Roy describing her visit to a Maoist-controlled area attracted much controversy. In the following piece, the Indian Marxist scholar and activist Jairus Banaji offers a much more critical analysis of Indian Maoism than Roy pro- vides. But first here is a little background to help the reader unfamiliar with Indian politics and society (see also the glossary). India is by far the most important country in the world where Communism remains a powerful political force. Reflecting the twists and turns of Moscow’s foreign policy, the Communist Party of India (CPI) during the struggle for national liberation from Britain had an ambiva- lent relationship to the dominant nationalist party, the Indian National : Johnson, 006. : Roy, 00a. Congress. But its role in different social movements gave it a significant popular base. After independence was won in 1947, Congress-ruled India pursued a policy of neutrality in the Cold War that led to a strategic part- nership with the Soviet Union.
