Manohar Publishers and Distributors The Feudal Order: State, Society and Ideology in
Book SynopsisThe book is divided into three parts, each devoted to an important aspect of the feudal phenomenon. The first part deals with the problem of transition from pre-feudal to feudal society and the second with the nature of state shaped largely by the growth of new classes as a result of agrarian changes, sluggish trade and the limited role of money in society. The third part explores the linkages between the socio-economic changes and the ideological trends noticeable in early medieval times. A collection of articles by eminent historians with an unquestionable grasp of the primary sources, the work underlines the heuristic value of the feudal construction for a meaningful understanding of historical processes at work in early medieval India.

Pentagon Press Reconnecting India and Central Asia Emerging
Book SynopsisThis book constitutes an overview of the emerging and deepening relations between India and Central Asia in both the political and economic fields. The stability and security of Central Asia is of prime importance for India, which it considers part of its extended neighborhood. Intertwined with Indian concerns is the stability of Afghanistan, where it is vigorously involved in reconstruction activities. So far, India has been active mainly in infrastructure, trade, education, health and technology in the region. With enhanced economic engagement, India can help build capacities in areas such as agriculture, information technology, service industries, science & technology and media. Conversely, India's increasing need for energy can be addressed by the energy-rich Central Asian countries, while improved transportation networks could provide a boost to continental trade across the region, benefiting India. Integrating South and Central Asia would result in vast economic benefits to all the stakeholders involved, leading to a positive outcome for stability and security in the region.

Pentagon Press Dragon Unravelled: A New Perspective of China
Book Synopsisequent unhappy relations between the two neighbouring countries. China's 'bamboo curtain', its background of exclusiveness and insularity had compounded the problem. Interest in China has grown exponentially because of its unparalleled economic growth challenging classical economics and its emergence as the second largest economy on the strength of FDI generated exports. Its current status as the virtual manufacturing capital of the world and as the main fund provider to the richest country has intensified the interest. China's superb performances in the 2008 Beijing Olympics and the recent 2010 Asian Games have unequivocally announced its emergence as a sports power. The cultural extravaganza put for their opening and closing ceremonies provided glimpses of its glorious past and cultural power. It has been investing heavily in Africa and some countries in South East Asia and Europe. Recent surveys in US show that its image ahs been improving even in countries traditionally unfriendly. The increasing emphasis on its traditional culture, involvement in UN and its peace keeping operations and improved image in many western countries show a rise in its soft power. The ongoing rapid modernization of its military and strong economy demonstrate its hard power. Most CEOs of multinational businesses expect China to continue as the leading edge of the recovery from recession. But, there are many issues concerning human rights on which the democratic world is critical. As India, now about 10-15 years behind China in terms of economic development, is estimated, in a few years' time, to overtake China in respect of growth of GDP and as there are may lessons Indian can learn in an emerging scene of 'cooperation and competition' between the two, it is interesting to study the emerging Chinese scenario. Basically, the author has given the facts, figures, studies and analyses, both positive and negative, leaving the reader to make his own value judgments, as Prof. (Dr.) M.G.S. Narayanan points out in his Foreword.

Pentagon Press Rising India in the Changing Asia-Pacific:
Book SynopsisRising India in the Changing Asia-Pacific: Strategies and Challenges, is an attempt to understand and examine changing geopolitical realities of the Asia-Pacific in the twenty-first century and emerging contours of India's responses to the new-emerging challenges as an emerging great power. This edited volume throws light on two decades of India's Look East Policy, its efforts towards connectivity, regional cooperation and its overall foreign policy thrusts towards its extended neighbourhood in the East. The volume also puts in perspective India's approaches to multilateralism and its role in the whole gamut of ASEAN-driven regional architectures ASEAN, ASEAN Regional forum, East Asia Summit, ASEAN Plus Defence Ministerial Meeting (ADMM+), BIMSTEC, Mekong Ganga Cooperation etc. The study suggests that India has focused its attention on strategic engagement with Asia-Pacific by expanding its commitments and participation in the multilateral cooperative framework to counter both traditional and non-traditional threats facing the region. While China-threat seems to have been giving fresh lease of life to India's balancing roles at regular intervals, challenges life maritime security, sea-piracy, terrorism, climate change, food security, natural disasters, and financial security continue to bring India and the Asia-Pacific together. The region exhibits a new buoyancy towards greater economic integration, physical and cultural connectivity and sustained engagement at the levels of governments, private business and people-to-people. Although challenges, such as bureaucratic loopholes, pressure groups and the lack of political will, inhibit the full scale relationship, civic drivers of engagement are giving new momentum to the strategic engagement between in rising India and a very powerful Asia-Pacific in what has come to be known as Asian Century .
