Summary/Abstract |
This article contracts the American/Western judeo-Christian culture and its definition of the world with the traditional Asian/Eastern Indic perspective to explain major features of US policy towards developing countries in general and India in particular. American diplomacy so far has been dictated by the national belief in the superiority of biblical monotheism and US outreach is associated with the spread of judeo-christinity and the defeat of “paganism”. In the name of protecting religious freedom, the American government claims the right to monitor the status of religion in other countries and support Christian missionary organizations. This policy is also a tool to keep India and other countries in a subordinate role by expanding US influence in all field.

Summary/Abstract |
The relation between civil society and environmental governance is not new. A number of developed states have introduced systems of green house gas emissions controls, but policy experience in this area is barely fifteen years old. Initiatives around adaptation are newer still. Thus societies are only beginning to learn what approaches are more or less promising. The power of ideas and the possibility of re-defining what is considered 'normal', 'possible' and 'acceptable' is often neglected in policy discussion. An example of power of ideas to shift policy frames is provided by the turn towards free markets and away from state provision that occurred in 1980s. Over the course of decades reforms aimed a reining back government and encouraging market growth dramatically altered expectation about boundaries of public- private economic activities-that is of civil society in broader sense.

Summary/Abstract |
Development has been synonymous with industrialization based on fossil fuel technology as defined, started in West in sixteenth century and sprawled and encompassed the entire world. As a part of development, modernization meant application of science and technology to the resources of the earth wantonly and to all the aspects of life in a mechanical way without thinking the disastrous effects of it. In other words, this process of western defined development meant the colonization of the nature. After post second world period this concept of development was adopted by all the non-western countries as a part of westernization and modernization.

Summary/Abstract |
What has rendered realist and neo-realist paradigm of security premised on state and its corresponding institutions redundant is the climate change. The source of security threats no longer lies with the state. The debate over the direct connection between climate change and security harks back to the day security threats were outsourced to non-military and non-traditional elements. There are skeptics who maintain that climate factors will only marginally influence tomorrow’s security environment, if at all. They point to significant natural fluctuations in climate patterns and short-term cyclical phenomena like El Nino and the recently identified Pacific Decadal Oscillation, the causes of which are not fully understood and deciphered. In their opinion, even if global warming does take place, many of its effects may be localized, benign or favourable.

Summary/Abstract |
To address the issues of sustainable development what is imperative is ‘the feeling of all in each and each in all’ which is the salience; Indian spiritual tradition and wisdom will be the guiding metaphor for understanding and practice. To feel being hurt by the pain or damage wrought to the living non- humans and material world is the result of attainment of a stage that transcends the mundane and the worldly by practice of the way the ancient Indian wisdom has shown to humanity where one realizes the unity of all in his self and his self in all.

Summary/Abstract |
India has a distinctive vulnerability profile as the poor are the most affected. Tremendous weather events take place more frequently and are becoming more ruthless. Therefore the previous attempts of just rescuing the affected will not be enough now, instead, meticulous steps to prevent these disasters are required. This can only be met if the strategies and policies can cope with climate change, requiring the active participation of the government and the people.

Summary/Abstract |
Mohandas Karamchanda Gandhi was born ordinary as every human being is not with a silver spoon in his mouth. When we say we are ordinary we mean the general go of the worldly life- education, service, marriage, earning of and running after money and material wealth. We fall into the excruciating chain of birth, growth, decay and death.
