Description
This book examines in the context of South Asia, four inter related dimensions that constitute the central policy challenges of our time: consolidating democracy, confronting violent extremism, overcoming mass poverty, and addressing the challenge of climate change. These themes are explored by some of the leading scholars and public figures in South Asia and are further integrated within a new perspective on South Asia by the editors.
