‎Harish Kapur‎

‎India of Our Times: an Experiment in Democracy [Hardcover]‎

‎This book explores the recent history of India -a history that focuses on the British Empire, and all that it did on the vast subcontinent during centuries of governance. While, it was neither planned nor premeditated, the slow and complex historical process of British rule resulted in the unfolding of a new process of viable governance and modernisation that transformed the socio-ecnomico-political map of India-a transformation India had never experienced before. The British legacies—negative and positive—are enormous. While much has been written on the dark period of colonial repression inflicted by the British, this treatise focuses on the positive side of the British presence in India. It is the purpose of this publication to show that the establishment of ideological pragmatism, political pluralism, the initial enactment of social reforms, the introduction of self-governing institutions, and the introduction of technology are the legacies that remain an undeniable part of post-independent India. The British past, thus, has not been completely unkind to India. What the country is today, and the direction in which it is heading are the results of the legacies that the British left, the foundations of which are still visible. About The Author:- Dr. Harish Kapur is professor emeritus of the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies in Geneva, Switzerland. Also he is the Director of the European Institute in Switzerland and India. The author has spent much of his academic career teaching international relations, and monitoring Ph.D. dissertations of students from different countries. He was recipient of many awards from different European and US Foundations, including a two year grant from Rockefeller Foundation that resulted in his appointment as Research Associate of the Russian Research Centre at Harvard University. Perhaps the most prestigious award he has received is that he has been nominated as the outstanding intellectual in the 20th and 21st centuries, along with 1000 intellectuals from all over the world by the Cambridge International Biographical Centre in the United Kingdom. Before joining the Institute in 1961, he functioned as The Deputy Legal Adviser in the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. While teaching international relations, Professor Kapur devoted much of his time to foreign policy of States with a focus on the former Soviet Union, China, Taiwan, India and the European Union. Most of his writings have been published in Europe, the United States and India. Contents:- Contents, Preface, Introduction, PART I -THE PAST, 1. Colonialism, 2. Nationalism, 3.

‎D.D. Aggarwal‎

‎Protocol in Mahabharata [Hardcover]‎

‎Mahabharata is a comprehensive Puran, projecting all aspects of human life- spiritual, political, administrative and social-as these existed in ancient period. This book Protocol in Mahabharata compares the same with the prevailing aspects in modern times. Spiritual protocol indicates protocol within Gods, seniority in Gods, God-being relation; political protocol indicates the duties of a raja in war and peace, his relation with the subjects and other rajas; laws of war and peace and international agreements. In administrative protocol the raja is said to be bound with the advice of his Secretaries, of course with the veto power. The administrative set up and judicial working appears to be more comprehensive than what it exists today. The social protocol envisages the strict following of the Varnasharama Dharma and any breach was punishable by law. For the sake of maintaining flow and continuity, aspects not having direct relation with protocol have been included in the text to make it a précised book of Mahabharata. The book is particularly informative and educative in view of the content of Bhagwat Gita and Bhishama-Yudhisthra discussions covering all aspects of human life, whose following shall make life most enjoying. About The Author:- D. D. Aggarwal, born in 1933, had his schooling in Sonipath (Haryana) and graduation and post- graduation from Delhi. He joined Ministry of Railways through the IAS and Allied Services Examination and retired from there as a Joint Secretary. After retirement he adopted writing books as his pastime and has already written many books including Protocol in Ramcharitmanas and Protocol in Srimad Bhagwat (both in English and Hindi); India Ever Independent: Why only 50years, CBI and Policing in India since Vedic Period and Jurisprudence in India Through the Ages. In these books, the writer has tried to trace the respective modern systems in our ancient books viz., Vedas Samritis Puranas etc. The present book protocol in Mahabharata is another link in the chain depicting all aspects of modern protocol-spiritual, social, political and administrative-existing in Mahabharata, an ocean of contents of Hindu way of life in that era. The author is still busy in bringing out more works in that direction.

‎Building the Siam Burma Railway During World War-Ii [Hardcover]‎

‎No subject created so much controversy during and after the Pacific war as the Japanese treatment of the Allied Prisoners of War (P.O.W.) in flagrant violation of the Geneva Convention. Whether it was due to the racial war carried out by the Japanese or was the outcome of the mistaken value of “Bushido” the question has never been resolved.

A fuctional account of the sufferings of the Allied P.O.W. was made famous by Hollywood few years back in the film The Bridge on the River Kwai.
