Hindutva and National Renaissance
Hindu civilization, the author argues, cannot be defended or protected merely by individual or personal piety or by performing of pujas. Hindus to survive collectively require a new mindset today to meet the growing challenge from this highly sophisticated multi-dimensional siege that is international in character, or risk over the next millennium perishing like the ancient Greeks, Egyptians, or Babylonians. It was a new mindset of the Jews after World War II that has kept Judaism alive and vibrant today. Hindutva or Hinduness, the author defines, is a collective mindset that identifies India as the motherland from the Himalayas to the Indian Ocean. Therefore, however pious a Hindu is, however prosperous Hindu temples become from doting devotees' offerings, it is this collective mindset of the people that matters, and not the piety of the individual in that collective.
Hindus Under Siege
Suggests that the siege against Hinduism today is visible in 4 dimensions - religious, psychological, physical and Cultural.
Economic Development and Reforms in India and China
The author argues that as India and China face the new challenges of the 21st century, their economies stand at crossroads of policy making. Either the two nations take the high road of further economic reforms energizing the national innovation and governance systems, or see their economic growth momentum fizzle out. The author argues that at present the Chinese economy enjoys substantial economic and policy advantages over India, in the manufacturing sector in particular. It is this sector that has the potential to wipe out unemployment, a vital social goal. The author concludes that the wide gap between India and China in per capita incomes (which gap was about zero in 1980) was only in part due to a lower population growth in China, but much more due to a greater investment effort in China. India cannot close this per capita income gap by 2020, without a faster GDP growth rate (e.g., 10 per cent per year) for which an even greater effort to raise the level of investment will have to be made. China, the author asserts, can raise or even sustain its growth rate only through new set of reforms that raise productivity and greater efficiency in use of resources.
Sri Lanka in Crisis
The author in a refreshing original way dissects the Sri Lanka crisis into three parts. The first is a clear description of the problem which rejects the conventional formulation of the problem as ethnic, religious, or linguistic. The author suggests on the basis of extensive research that Tamils and Sinhalas are different only in their historical interaction with British colonialists. Otherwise, in ethnicity, language and religion they are of the same family. Due to the British early familiarity with Tamils in India, the Sri Lanka Tamils found easy access to the British colonialists, while the landed gentry and farming community of Sinhala did not. Hence, the Tamils got ahead in English edu...
