Downloaded on behalf of Unknown Institution Revised Pages Foreword pta Rick thaddeus Jackson I am pleased that we are able to present this remarkable project spearheaded by one of the foremost postcolonial IR scholars presently working. Professor Ling has assembled an impressive team for a first- of- its- kind book project in the field of International Relations: a coauthored book that is not an edited volume, but a multiperspectival monograph that tackles a complex situa- tion in a way that can do it justice better than a traditional single- authored book or a multiauthored edited volume could. Here we have a series of voices arranged in a complementary way, operating with the same basic sensibility but exploring different threads, crossing over one another’s contributions in ways that produce a greater whole, and woven together by an innovative scholar whose distinctive voice underpins her seminal contributions to the field. The book is thus procedurally innovative at the same time as it breaks new methodological and empirical ground. Configurations as a series is about using innovative contemporary social theory to produce novel insights about specific empirical cases. Of course, some of the innovations in contemporary social theory might not be new formulations as much as they are the recovery of older formulations, and that is certainly the case here. The authors of this book look to the past for their principal inspiration, tapping the traditions of ancient geography and medicine for their primary analytical tools. These are in turn encompassed in the central model of the project: borders- as- capillaries, which is to say, borders not as discrete divisions between two preexisting things that impede commerce and intercourse between them, but—as Timothy Mitchell might well have said—bor ders as internal to a network of relations, borders as al- ways surrounded and interpenetrated by a series of interactions and ex- Ling, L.H.M.

Downloaded on behalf of Unknown Institution viii foRewoRd changes far more fundamental and far more quotidian than whatever macro- level aggregates get imposed on them later. Central to the theme of this book are the macro- level aggregates “China” and “India,” and central to the approach the authors take is the disentangling of what might otherwise seem like intractable conflicts by recalling the flows and interactions that precede, both analytically and historically, the present zone of conflict. Here are novel insights in droves, generated by a theoretical perspective quite at odds with what exists in most of the field. Ling and her collaborators have ambitions that are not merely explana- tory but also transformative: they seek not merely to make sense of an existing conflict, but by diagnosing it in terms of blocked flows and interrupted bal- ances, they seek to envision ways to resolve (or, better, to dis-sol ve) it. If the more typical IR explanatory social-scient ific question would be “why is this India- China conflict as virulent as it is?,” their question is instead “what does the present state of the conflict reveal about how to change things?” The transformative question encompasses the explanatory question and presses it onto novel terrain; call the results “explanation- plus.” The book thus sits squarely in the tradition of reflexive social science, in which the study of the world is inseparable from efforts to alter it; as such, the authors’ own self- locations become a vital part of the methodological grounding of the proj- ect, and help to underpin the validity of the results. This is truly critical so- cial science at its best. In sum, this book is a remarkable addition to the Configurations series, and I am delighted to be able to share it with you. Ling, L.H.M.

    Border Trade: Reopening the Tibet Border Claude Arpi the First Part of This Paper Concluded with This Question: Can the Borders

    Border Trade: Reopening the Tibet Border Claude Arpi The first part of this paper concluded with this question: can the borders be softened again? Can the age-old relation between the Tibetans and the Himalayans be revived? The process has started, though it is slow. This paper will look at the gains acquired from the reopening of the three land ports, but also at the difficulties to return to the booming trade which existed between Tibet and India before the invasion of Tibet in 1950 and to a certain extent till the Indo-China war of 1962. It will also examine the possibility to reopen more land ports in the future, mainly in Ladakh (Demchok) and Arunachal Pradesh. Tibet’s Economic Figures for 2012 According to a Chinese official website, the Tibetan Autonomous Region is economically doing extremely well. Here are some ‘official’ figures: • Tibet's GDP reached 11.3 billion US $ in 2012, an increase of 12 % compared to the previous year (Tibet's GDP was 9.75 billion US $ in 2011 and 8.75 billion US $ in 2010). • Tibet's economy has maintained double-digit growth for 20 consecutive years. • Fixed asset investment have increased by 20.1 % • The tax revenues reached 2.26 billion US $ (fiscal revenue grew by 46%) • And Tibet received over 11 million domestic and foreign tourists earning 2.13 billion US $ Tibet’s Foreign Trade Figures for 2012 The foreign trade is doing particularly well. On January 23, 2013, Xinhua announced that Tibet has registered new records in foreign trade. A Chinese government agency reported that the foreign trade of the Tibetan Autonomous Region reached more than 3 billion U.S.

    APRIL 2020 ISSUE NO. 356 India and Nepal’s Kalapani Border Dispute: An Explainer SOHINI NAYAK ABSTRACT Neighbours India and Nepal, who share an open border, have not always had the most amicable of relations, oscillating from one extreme to the other. One of their long-standing disputes is over the border area of Kalapani. This discord has the potential to disrupt the other aspects of their ties, especially in the domains of the economy and cross-border security. Further, if the two countries fail to arrive at a resolution to the disagreement, it might give other stakeholders such as China an opportunity to interfere. This brief explains the Kalapani issue and in that context, explores what can be expected of the bilateral relationship in the future.

Fortmann, Chair This dissertation investigates the transformation of the district of Kinnaur in the state of Himachal Pradesh in the Indian Himalaya. I examine Kinnauri adaptation to political, economic, environmental, and social events of the last seven decades, including state intervention, market integration, and climate change. Broadly, I examine drivers of change in Kinnaur, and the implications of these changes on social, cultural, political, and environmental dynamics of the district. Based on findings from 11 months of ethnographic field work, I argue that Kinnaur’s transformation and current economic prosperity have been chiefly induced by outside forces, creating a temporary landscape of opportunity. State-led interventions including land reform and a push to supplement subsistence agriculture with commercial horticulture initiated a significant agrarian transition beginning with India’s Independence. I provide detailed examination of the Nautor Land Rules of 1968 and the 1972 Himachel Pradesh Ceiling of Land Holding Act, and their repercussion on land allocation to landless Kinnauris.

In view of the increasing trend toward regional integration, particularly the expanded European Union and North American integration, the opportunity costs of not moving toward greater economic integration between China and India involving common neighbouring countries could be increasing. This paper discusses the above subject in the context of possible areas of China - India economic cooperation and integration in the Eastern and Northeastern region of India and Southwestern provinces of China, including neighbouring countries like Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar, and Nepal.

Obok danych ekonomicznych przedstawia tło kontekstowe, uwarun­ ko wania polityczne oraz pomysły rozwojowe tej działalności. K e y w o r d s: Himalayas, Kinnaur, trade, Shipki­la, Tibet, China. INTRODUCTION In my own previous publications some false predictions in relation to the declining tendencies of total border trade value through Shipki­la in Kinnaur (Beszterda 2015, 239–259; Beszterda 2014, 117–134) were made. In the light of more recent research findings, I wish to take the opportunity to revise some of my earlier conclusions and interpretations. For readers who are not fully aware of the issue, tax­free border trade between India and Tibet was reactivated in the 1990s. Until this reopening the Himalayan passes had been officially sealed since 1962. The first pass designated for this purpose was Lipulekh in Pithoragarh Distt., Uttarakhand (opened to all intents and purposes in 1992). The second was Shipki­la in Kinnaur Distt., H.P. – the subject of this paper (opened in 1994), and the third was Nathu­la in Eastern Dist., Sikkim (since 2006).

Eco tourists are often motivated by the chance to experience tribal culture, which can have a positive and affirming effect on that culture. Schemes like Home Stay started by Dept. of Tourism & Civil Aviation, Himachal Pradesh on the one hand saves the tribal areas from becoming concrete jungles and on the other gives a firsthand experience of tribal culture to the tourists. Moreover this also becomes a means of income generating activity for tribals. The tribal areas of Himachal such as Spiti, Kinnaur, Sangla, kalpa and Bharmour are all major tourist destinations today. The tribal population in Himachal Pradesh is about 11% of the total population i.e. 244587 lakh. These tribal include the Kinners or Kinnaure, the Lahules, the Spitians, the Pangwalas, the Gaddis and the Gujjars. However it is often said, tourism destroys tourism. It seems to be true in the case of the Sangla valley in Kinnaur, which is fast losing its scenic charm and tranquillity due to the unregulated growth of the tourism industry. New buildings are coming up in a haphazard way, as there is no plan for the development of the tourist destination.

    India-China Defence Cooperation and Military Engagement

    Focus India-China Defence Cooperation and Military Engagement Rup Narayan Das* Defence cooperation and military engagement between India and China are aspects of the complex mix of conflict and cooperation approach to bilateral relations between the two Asian giants. It is based on the presumption that there is a security dilemma between the two countries. However, it recognises the framework and postulates of what is called cooperative security. Through the liberal institutionalist’s perspective, it argues that India-China defence cooperation and military engagement are not only possible but also desirable. For these two biggest developing nations of the world, peace and friendship between them are not only in their mutual interests, but also important for bringing peace, stability and prosperity to South Asia. Military engagements between countries across the world are increasingly becoming an important aspect of the bilateral relations between them. It is not only symbolic of maturing of their relationship but also builds trust and confidence between the defence forces which may prove useful during any joint military operation such as M fighting terrorism or natural disasters like flood and earthquake. Military engagement is possible when ilitary engagement thereand their is higher defence degree forces. of friendship If approaches and cooperation to study of is possible when atinternational the political politics level between and more the particularly two governments to study andthere cooperation is higher at thedegree political of friendship level of bilateral relationship between two countries can be broadly categorised as realists and liberal institutionalist, then advocates of Confidence Building Measures (CBMS) like defence cooperation theirbetween defence the two forces.

    Agricultural Economics Research Review Vol. 21 July-December 2008 pp 211-220 Socio-economic Dimensions of Equine-rearing in Himachal Pradesh S.K. Chauhan* Department of Agricultural Economics CSK Himachal Pradesh Agricultural University, Palampur - 176 062, Himachal Pradesh Abstract Since equines play an important role in the economy of Himachal Pradesh, this study has examined the growth trends in equine population and socio-economic characteristics of equine-rearers. The problems being faced have been identified and some policy recommendations have been made. It has been found that equine population had a compound growth rate of 2.57 per cent per annum during the period 1966-2003 and constituted about 1 per cent of the total livestock population in 2003. Amongst different constituents of equines, viz. horses, ponies, mules and donkeys, mules have shown the maximum rise in number. The contribution of equines has been assessed to be 40 per cent in the gross household income of rearers. A mule pair has been found to be highly profitable for load-carrying activities. Road links to the villages having modern means of transport have been perceived to be the greatest threat to equine-rearing activity, followed by its disliking by younger generations and non- availability of locally-bred mules. The study has emphasized on increased supply of Chamurthi horses through identification of additional local breeders by adopting systematic breeding policy, particularly in the Pin Valley of Spiti area. Keeping in view the demand for mules, their breeding should be undertaken at both public and at private levels so that local-bred mules become available at affordable prices.
