Democratic development state in India.

Indian Journal of Public Administration, 62(2), 2016(Apr-

Jun): p.226-248.

The idea of developmental state emerged mostly in the

late industrialising countries which were lagging behind

the developed countries of the world. Chalmers Johnson

coined the term 'developmental state' in the context of

Japan, which was later replicated in South Korea. The

rise of East Asian Developmental States can be attributed

to the proactive role played by the respective states of

these countries. A variation of the developmental state

can be seen in the case of India. It combined both

developmental goals and democratic ideals. In the

process, it maintained a moderate growth in terms of per

capita GDP as well sustained democracy with a brief

interlude of the emergency regime of Indira Gandhi. The

article tries to evaluate India's developmental as well

democratic credentials to date in seeking to apply the

concept of 'democratic developmental state' formulated by

Gordon White and Mark Robinson. - Reproduced.

The article analyses organizational structures and

coordination mechanisms for crisis management in six

European countries, focusing on the prevalence of

hierarchical and network arrangements, administrative

culture and perceptions of coordination quality. Our main

research question concerns the importance of

collaboration and cooperation in the management of

crises. We apply a structural-instrumental and a cultural

perspective, and examine data on formal organizational

structures as well as survey data from administrative

executives. The mapping reveals hybrid coordination

arrangements with different national 'flavours'. The

survey data show that the executives accorded significant

weight to coordination, but the use of different

coordination mechanisms was only loosely linked to their

assessments of coordination quality. Our findings support

a view of public administration as a largely composite

system combining contradictory organizational principles

that have evolved through institutional layering.

National context and the specific challenges from

different types of crises therefore influence crisis

management capacity profoundly.

The menace of narco power in Pakistan .

Indian Journal of Public Administration, 62(2), 2016(Apr-

This article seeks to analyse the menace of narco power

in Pakistan. The 1980s, in the aftermath of the Afghan

crisis, witnessed the rise of narco power in Pakistan.

The narco power, which has assumed the role of one of the

central pillars of the power structure in Pakistan,

reveals triangular linkages and nexus between narcotics

and politicians, army and ISI, and terrorism. Drug

syndicates also run a parallel economy. The article also

takes into account the relationship between narcotics and

civil society to depict the menace of drug addiction and

ethnic violence. With their penetration of state

institutions, economy, and society, the narco barons

today are the most formidable force threatening the

government's authority, political stability, and the

economic and social equilibrium of the society. -

Determinants of information and communication technology

adoption in municipalities.

American Review of Public Administration, 46(3), 2016(M

ay): p.292-313.

Local governments use various technologies to enhance

responsiveness to citizens' demands and to improve

efficiency. However, the determinants for technology

adoption may vary by the type of technology used. We

separately examine the adoption of two different types of

information and communication technologies (ICTs):

intranet, which increases efficiencies within an

organization, and e-services, which aim to increase

efficiencies for the public and government agencies.

Using 2012 data collected from a national random survey

of the managers in 500 municipal governments with

populations ranging from 25,000 to 250,000, we find that

organizational centralization, work routineness, and

personnel constraints are related to the adoption of both

intranet and e-services, but that these relationships are

mediated by an organization's risk-taking culture. We

also find that external stakeholder influence is

positively related to ICT use. Governmental stakeholder

influence is related to intranet adoption, and non-

governmental stakeholder influence is related to the

adoption of e-services. Our study highlights the

importance of understanding the dynamics by which

different ICTs are adopted. A main contribution lies in

the finding that risk-taking culture mediates the

relationship between structural constraints and ICT

adoption in municipal governments. - Reproduced.

Examining mobility in international development.

Social Problems, 63(3), 2016(Aug): p.329-350.

International development scholars routinely test for

convergence across a range of outcomes, including income,

health, and education. However, the extent to which

countries have reordered themselves along the development

hierarchy receives less attention. Accordingly, the

present analysis features a systematic examination of

cross-national mobility in international development. I

first introduce a generic model of mobility in which

country-level movement is a function of several factors,

including initial inequality, growth dynamics, and

temporal span. I then show that observed mobility rates

across several development indicators (gross domestic

product per capita [GDP PC], human development index

[HDI], and life expectancy) are significantly lower than

what the generic model predicts. An investigation of

longitudinal trends shows that mobility rates have been

declining since the 1980s and that the discrepancy

between expected and observed mobility has grown wider

during this time. Mobility rates appear to be hindered by

the lack of large-scale mobility among upper tier

countries (where mobility patterns are more favorable

than expected) and lower tier countries (where mobility

patterns are less favorable than expected). Overall, the

results are consistent with propositions derived from

world-system theory regarding the relative stability of

the core/periphery hierarchy. In sum, the analysis of

mobility can serve as a useful complement to existing

research and produces an image of development and change

not typically found in convergence studies. - Reproduced.

Economic policy uncertainty and growth in India.

Economic and Political Weekly, 41(35), 2016(27 Aug):

p.72-81.

A measure of economic policy uncertainty or EPU for India

is constructed to study its impact on the economy. It is

found that gross domestic product growth and fixed

investment are negatively related to EPU in India. For

instance, if the economic uncertainty were to decrease to

the level observed in 2005, India's GDP growth would

increase by 0.56%, and fixed investment growth would

increase by 1.36%. Additionally, a negative correlation

between the Bombay Stock Exchange index and EPU in India

is observed, suggesting that increases in EPU lower

expectations of future growth or increase perceived risk

of listed stocks. Lastly, it is found that firm-level

capital expenditure rates are lowered when EPU increases.
