| Summary/Abstract |
The paper intends to offer a framework of understanding the dual rise of
econo-centric capitalism and logo-centric fundamentalism as a dialectical
process of mutual generation and destruction in the long historical struggles
between ideas and values on the one hand, and material life and society on
the other. "Mutual generation and destruction" implies a dialectical process
in which the deification of the free market and the global expansion of
market capitalism have unavoidably generated mounting contradictions
paving the way for the resurgence of radical counter-hegemonic sociopolitical
forces. It is the analysis of this connection that leads to a better
understanding of the essence of fundamentalism rather than its appearance.
Islamic fundamentalism can be seen as a counter-hegemonic political
movement representing an outlet for action and a force for change.
Ironically, what we are witnessing today is a war between two rising
religions: Islamic revivalism and market capitalism.

| Summary/Abstract |
The ratification of the unprecedented Indo-US nuclear deal by the United
States Congress and the signing of related legislation by President Bush on
October 8, 2008 marked a remarkable new development in global nuclear affairs.
The finalisation of this deal will have serious national, regional, and international
consequences. It will give a tremendous boost to India's existing nuclear
infrastructure through direct foreign investment which will increase India's
capacity for power generation and will also improve, qualitatively and
quantitatively, its nuclear arsenal. In order to facilitate this deal, the United States
has already amended its nuclear proliferation laws and regulations which placed
restrictions on nuclear-related exports. In Washington's view, this deal is
favourable to its commercial interests within the nuclear industry.

| Summary/Abstract |
The Indian subcontinent has long been subjected to invasions and extended
periods of warlordism, fragmentation and anarchy. The success of the invading
powers has often depended a great deal upon the prevalence of internal
dissolution. There is a direct link, for instance, between the collusion of certain
Afghan notables, such as the governor of the Punjab, Daulat Khan Lodhi, and the
establishment of Mughal imperial rule in the subcontinent in the 1520s. One can
