Book Deepening Economic Cooperation between India and Sri Lanka

Download or read book Deepening Economic Cooperation between India and Sri Lanka written by Indra Nath Mukherji and published by Asian Development Bank. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the performance and impact of the India–Sri Lanka free trade agreement over the past decade and suggests the way forward. India became an important source of imports for Sri Lanka immediately after the implementation of the free trade agreement. Bilateral trade between the countries increased steadily thereafter, with Sri Lankan commodities finding a large market in India. The composition of trade also changed with an increased number of new goods being traded. The book computes indices and suggests scope for deepening economic cooperation between the two countries by pruning the negative lists for trade in goods, identifying potential investment, and suggesting policies for expanding cooperation in services.

Download or read book Pangs of Proximity written by S D Muni and published by SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 1993-09-28 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "S. D. Muni's work is a significant contribution to the unfolding events of Sri Lanka's ethnic conflict which has been compiled from an Indian perspective. Muni also highlights the weaknesses of India's mediating process, which was prolonged without success. This is a tribute to his scholarship." --Siri Gamage in Journal of Contemporary Asia "Professor Muni's book represents a very important contribution to the history of India-Sri Lanka relations in the crucial period 1983 to 1990. This book is short on verbiage and seeks to concentrate on hard facts and analysis." --India Quarterly "Muni demonstrates how the various conflicts are intermeshed in South Asia and how internal conflicts can create bilateral or international tensions. Muni shows the often divergent assessments and the dilemmas of Indian foreign policy makers in dealing with the Sri Lankan crisis. At the same time he makes clear that the problem of balancing the dynamics of ethnic conflicts with national security concerns will remain on the agenda of Indian policy makers." --Christian Wagner in Internationales Asienforum "The overall treatment of the subject is very exhaustive, meticulous and systematic.... The book opens up a whole new perspective which has had treatment from journalists and other writers before Muni in a somewhat piecemeal manner. A good chronology of events is given with the author's own carefully arranged insights. Muni covers "the Indian perspective" with skill, highlighting many of its dimensions and variables. The book sheds new light on the chain of events leading up to the July agreement which was a watershed in Indo-Lanka relations. One other impressive task he has accomplished is the correction of incorrect facts relating to the conflict and Indian involvement whether they refer to the Sri Lankan or Indian side. A considerable degree of objectivity is achieved in the assessments and criticisms that Muni makes.... Muni's book fills a lacuna which existed in the copious volumes of work on the subject. Those interested in the subtle nature of South Asian diplomacy, defence relations, elite politics, roles of governments in resolving political conflicts exacerbated by cultural and ideological factors have much to gain from Muni's contribution.... Muni's work is a significant contribution to the unfolding events of Sri Lanka's ethnic conflict which has been compiled from an Indian perspective. Muni also highlights the weaknesses of India's mediating process which was prolonged without success. This is a tribute to his scholarship." --Journal of Contemporary Asia "Muni's study gives a very detailed account of the different stages of the Indian intervention. Its main value lies in the analysis of the political and security constraints of Indian foreign policy makers in dealing with the ethnic crisis in Sri Lanka. On the basis of his interviews with Singhalese. Tamil and Indian politicians, military leaders and intellectuals, Muni is able to give a very good picture of the various stages of the negotiations which finally led to the Peace Agreement.... Muni demonstrates how the various conflicts are intermeshed in South Asia and how internal conflicts can create bilateral or international tensions. Muni shows the often divergent assessments and the dilemmas of Indian foreign policy makers in dealing with the Sri Lankan crisis. At the same time he makes clear that the problem of balancing the dynamics of ethnic conflicts with national security concerns will remain on the agenda of Indian policy makers." --Internationales Asienfourm The ethnic crisis which today engulfs Sri Lanka has deep historical roots. India's response to developments in Sri Lanka is examined in the broad framework of India's approach to its neighbor's internal problems since 1947. The author comprehensively analyzes India's attitude toward Sri Lanka's ethnic conflict, comparing the policies of the government under Indira Gandhi, and then her son Rajiv. In particular, the author describes the implications and nuances of the Indo-Sri Lanka Agreement of 1987 and the role played by the Indian Peace Keeping force sent to Sri Lanka to assist in the implementation of the Agreement. One of the unique features of this study is that it underlines the critical role of socio-cultural linkages across national boundaries. "This is a solid, well-researched work examining India's involvement in Sri Lanka's continuing ethnic crisis. . . . S. D. Muni, an internationally respected scholar, . . . argues persuasively." --Choice "No student of India's foreign policy can afford to ignore this book." --The Statesman "S. D. Muni's book is the most careful overview of India-Sri Lanka relations (and the event leading up to the intervention) yet published." --The Hindu

Book Historical Dictionary of Sri Lanka

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Sri Lanka written by Patrick Peebles and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-10-22 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sri Lanka has had a celebrated history, a long colonial past, and since independence in 1948 has passed through a series of crises and political experiments. It has had a remarkable record of voters turning out unpopular governments, often by sweeping margins. On 8 January 2015 voters again performed this feat when Maithripala Sirisena, representing a coalition of disparate parties, defeated Mahinda Rajapaksa for the presidency. Rajapaksa was turning the nation away from its democratic heritage towards authoritarianism and militarism. Independent Sri Lanka’s economy stagnated for decades before it began to grow in the 1980s. It has had significant economic growth since the end of the 26-year war against the separatist Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in 2009. Although reconciliation between the Sinhalese Buddhist majority and Hindu, Muslim and Christian minorities seems distant, prospects for Sri Lanka seem better than they have been for decades. The Historical Dictionary of Sri Lanka contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 700 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Sri Lanka.
