Sustainable agricultureJuly 2021Sustainable Farming
by Partha Sarathi, Kausik Pradhan, Shyamal Kheroar, Amrit Tamang & Pabitra Adhikary
In the recent era, the ability to future generation to produce food and enjoy productivity decreases in a faster rate due to the depletion of the natural resource base through high external input based agriculture. It is believed that, the decline of ancient civilizations in Mesopotamia, the Mediterranean region, Pre-Columbian southwest U.S. and Central America is strongly influenced by natural resource degradation from non-sustainable farming and forestry practices. In this backdrop the sustainable agriculture is utilizing the existing natural resource base and low external input for regenerating the productive capacity of the same along with the minimization of harmful impacts on ecosystems.

December 2021New Asian Disorder
Rivalries Embroiling the Pacific Century
by Edited by Lowell Dittmer
In New Asian Disorder: Rivalries Embroiling the Pacific Century, Lowell Dittmer and his team explore the recent political disorder in East Asia resulting from growing Sino-American polarization. The rise of China in recent years is widely regarded as a momentous shift in the global balance of power. China is now extending sovereignty into the East China Sea and the South China Sea, constructing a new set of global financial institutions and replacing “universal values” with technologically enhanced nationalism. The country’s “Belt and Road Initiative” is also tainted by the vast ambition to realize the “China Dream” within the foreseeable future. In response to China’s challenge, the United States has abandoned its “constructive engagement” policy towards the rising power and engaged in a trade war. Sino-American relations have been at a historical trough since the normalization of their relationship in the late 1970s. This book sheds new light on the current political disorder in the East Asian international arena. The new Asian disorder is analyzed from three perspectives: the first focuses on identity, the second on political economy, and the third on the triangular dynamic. This collection of essays concludes that, unless and until consensus can be reached on a coherent new framework for cooperation and rule enforcement among different stakeholders in East Asia, the current disorder may be expected to persist.
