| Summary/Abstract |
Revival of the 'Silk Road' or Silk Road Strategy is a fashionable terms now days, even in Indian academic circles. Of course the word has been used more extensively by American and Chinese scholars. This began with the US Silk Road Strategy act of 1999, which talked of transporting the Central Asian region's natural resources to the international market.

| Summary/Abstract |
It has a composite culture developed through a historical process wherein the emphasis has been on unity in
diversity. South Asia has been the victim of repeated foreign aggressions. The richness of the region perhaps attracted the aggressors from far and wide. In the successive waves of invasions since the ancient times, the Aryans, the Greeks, the Shakes, the Huns, the Turko-Afgans, the Mughals and others came to the region. In the modern period, the Europeans viz. Portuguese, Dutch, French and the British came to South Asia, though it was the British who finally established their hold in the region. The British invasion was qualitatively different from the earlier ones. Whereas the earlier invaders came, settled down here and got completely assimilated with the indigenous people, the British integrated the region into their empire and ruled it from London. The region was linked with the industrially advanced intemational market in order to exploit its natural resources. South Asian economy and society became subordinated to the imperialist political economy and social development. The region was transformed into a market for the British machine made goods, a source of raw material and foodstuffs, and an important field of capital investment. The entire structure of economic relations between Europe and the South Asia involving trade, finance and technology continuously developed the colonial dependence and underdevelopment of the latter. This new politico-econornic system of subordination, called as colonialism, resulted in the emergence of Europe as a leading
capitalist region while the colonies were reduced to backward.

| Summary/Abstract |
In late 2010, the Japanese government issued a new defence policy. Central to it was a maritime conception of Japan's security. As an island nation, its naval posture has long been important. Today, sea communications and unhindered access to international markets and resources remain the drivers of its strategy of maritime deterrence-one strikingly similar to nineteenth-century Britain.

| Summary/Abstract |
Brazilian energy diplomacy intensified from 2003 to 2010. In this case, this intensification was related to the structure of more convergent preferences of Itamaraty-Brazil's Foreign Ministry-other related ministries, and agencies with foreign government preferences for engagement in energy security and/or integration. Co-extensive with these preferences were those of most Brazilian domestic actors on the diversification of the state's energy supplies, enhancement of access to markets or reserves, stimulus for sustainable production and use-mainly in developing states-and strengthening of strategic international partnerships-mostly with developed states-for training and the competitive insertion in the international market.

| Summary/Abstract |
Smallholders in developing countries can potentially benefit from access to local, regional, national and international markets as they intermediate between rural and urban demand for agricultural products and smallholder supply. This study investigates how smallholders in Meru, Tanzania make use of the various marketing channels that are available to them, and argues that the variety of potential marketing channels and easily accessible market information enables smallholders to weigh advantages and disadvantages with varying market opportunities and form rational decisions. It presents a case where producers, consumers and traders are the principal agents in building market institutions through what should be characterised as endogenous processes. As these market institutions correspond to smallholders' needs, they may be able to play an important role in the overall process of agricultural development in the area.

| Summary/Abstract |
In a dramatic example of policy diffusion, the past three decades have witnessed the spread of automobile emission standards throughout the world. Contrary to fears that global competition would produce a race to the bottom, there appears to be a race to the top, not only among rich countries but also among poor ones. Using econometric analysis of the adoption of automobile emission standards over the past twenty years for 129 countries, the author argues that this global diffusion results from countries' efforts to stay competitive in the international market. Due to the pressure from importing countries that have adopted stringent emission standards, even developing countries have rapidly moved to adopt rich country standards. The evidence shows that adoption of automobile emission standards correlates with an increase in the total value of automobile exports. Under some conditions, economic incentives in a global market can be a complement to environmental protection.

| Summary/Abstract |
THE CURRENT SITUATION in the world does not give much cause for optimism. International relations are going through what is far from being the best of times, experiencing serious "stresses" caused by the effects of globalization on the one hand, and the increasing recurrences of policies based on the use of force and disregard for the elementary norms of international law, on the other.

| Summary/Abstract |
IN THE STUDY OF THE REGULATION of the export of goods, services, and capital, scholars traditionally focus on the regulation of their export from the territory of a country - in particular, the export of goods, export quotas, export control systems, state support of exports, etc. Nevertheless, in the regulation of exports, leading countries are giving increasing importance to lowering trade and investment barriers abroad and assuring favorable conditions on international markets for national exporters and investors, which is reflected, among others, in the U.S. National Export Initiative that was adopted in 2010. For this reason, I propose separating two different types of export regulations: (1) the regulation of the export of goods, services, and capital from a country's territory and (2) the regulation of the import of goods, services, and capital to the markets of foreign countries.
