Summary/Abstract |
India’s large stray dog population, estimated to be about 25 million, poses substantial risks to human health, motivating some civic bodies to employ cruel methods to control dog populations. This article argues that while human health is certainly a priority, it is also important to consider animal welfare and to handle dog population control measures without causing unnecessary animal suffering. Triangulating the issues of rabies control, dog population management and state intervention, the article identifies recent practical difficulties in local management of dog population control laws and policies in India’s model city of Chandigarh. Based on a survey of local opinions, this shows how rising human–animal conflicts require new ways of handling existing challenges.

The study examines China's performance in science and technology (S&T) during 1997-2007, based on several parameters including the country's annual average growth rate, global publication share and rank, strong and weak subject areas (in terms of national priority, international collaborative share and global share), institutional profiles of select top institutions, the overall international collaboration profile and major collaborative partners, patterns of communication in national and international journals and characteristics of its top highly cited papers. The study also compares similarities of China's research profile with nineteen other top productive countries.
