Summary/Abstract |
Afghanistan today stands precariously perched on the edge of an abyss. A hapless victim of a once-again Taliban and al-Quaeda resurgence, an inept and deeply corrupt administration, a no so effective the US led international military presence, the devious role being played by its neighbour, Pakistan, and a booming drug economy makes Afghanistan a basket case of political and strategic instability.

Summary/Abstract |
The paper, in its pursuit, goes to study the existing Chinese institutional mechanism to fight corruption in public life. The broad assumptions of the study include the Chinese leadership is abreast with the debilitating aftermath of the malaise, and as evident from the public statements on the issue, there is demonstrable political will to handle the problem and the phenomenon of widespread corruption in China has got a flip because of the CPCs abiding dependence on cadre system in governance which has created overriding space for corrupt practices.

Summary/Abstract |
Future of our planet depends upon the development of Asia. Russia is a keystone in forging a relationship between the European civilisation and Asian development. Although prospects of development in Asia are not good, the potential for growth is there despite 60 to 70 per cent of it's population being extremely poor and lacking in technological skills. Therefore, what is required is a long term global perspective for the development of solutions of Asia's problem.

The major security challenge faced by India today is to combat terrorism perpetuated by militant and terrorist groups. There is also the reality of a number of nuclear weapon states in the neighborhood. A democratic country having rule of law cannot but rely upon effective legislative tools coupled with robust investigative law enforcement machinery to match the ill designs of terrorist networks.
