Our world today is not only a world in crisis but also a world in profound movement, with increasingly large numbers of people joining or forming movements: local, national, transnational, and global. The dazzling diversity of ideas and experiences recorded in this collection capture something of the fluidity within campaigns for a more equitable planet. This book, taking internationalism seriously without tired dogmas, provides a bracing window into some of the central ideas to have emerged from within grassroots struggles from 2006 to 2010. The essays here cross borders to look at the politics of caste, class, gender, religion, and indigeneity, and move from the local to the global. What M...
Successful supply chain management requires a high degree of functional and organizational integration. A major problem is the uncertainty due to lack of coordination in the supply chain. The lack of coordination causes manufacturing cost, inventory cost, replenishment lead time, transportation cost and labour cost to increase and the level of product availability and profitability to reduce. This research work has been aimed at understanding the gap between the expectations and performance on different attributes of Logistics and Supply Chain Management adopted at different the stages in the supply chain viz., by customers, retailers, suppliers and transporters in Kerala. The study is also aimed at understanding the level of implementation of latest concepts in supply chain management among the different entities.
In the eyes of those who had lost all hopes in Bihar, Nitish Kumar has acquired the status of a miracle man. After all, how did he work for the revival of the state? Nitish Kumar is not a professional manager, he is a politician. When he took over as the Chief Minister of Bihar in November 2005, he frequently reminded the officials that the performance of the government was at stake in his ministry and not in the bureaucracy. If the government succeeds, then all the credit will be given his ministry. If it fails, his ministry will have to own the responsibility. Bureaucrats would not lose their jobs, but he (the Chief Minister) will have to go. Inspite of all this, Nitish Kumar earned a permanent place in the hearts of the people by working towards solving the issues related to the basic needs of the people and he emerged as the pioneer of social revolution. This process of improvement continues unabated. A readable and collectable saga that introduces you to the untold, inspiring, interesting, and adventurous campaigns of the social revolution of Nitish Kumar.

This volume proposes an alternative development paradigm to the existing capitalist extant one, and studies how it is distinctly different from the older system. Rooted in the principles of solidarity between humans, as well as between humans and nature, this alternative paradigm replaces the methodological individualism of capitalism by ‘reciprocal altruism’, a new logic of capital, to give pace and direction to the development process. The essays in this volume highlight instances of various forms of solidarity that have emerged in the contemporary world—such as resistance movements of informal workers, the formation of an autonomous cooperative of self-employed waste pickers in Indi...
The subject of food security and land issues in Africa has become one of increased importance and contention over recent years. In particular, the focus has shifted to the role new global South donors - especially India, China and Brazil - are playing in shaping African agriculture through their increased involvement and investment in the continent. Approaching the topic through the framework of South-South co-operation, this highly original volume presents a critical analysis of the ways in which Chinese, Indian and Brazilian engagements in African agriculture are structured and implemented. Do these investments have the potential to create new opportunities to improve local living standards, transfer new technology and knowhow to African producers, and reverse the persistent productivity decline in African agriculture? Or will they simply aggravate the problem of food insecurity by accelerating the process of land alienation and displacement of local people from their land? Topical and comprehensive, Agricultural Development and Food Security in Africa offers fresh insight into a set of relationships that will shape both Africa and the world over the coming decades.
