Infrastructure challenges in South Asia / Stephen Jones and Ramlatu Attah.South Asia's growing political and economic influence, as well as the dynamism of this rapidly changing region, demands careful examination. Drawing on many areas of expertise and a wide range of perspectives, this book analyses how recent developments in the economic, political and social landscapes of South Asia have affected the region itself as well as its relations with the rest of Asia and the world at large. The book gathers together the papers presented at the 4th International Conference on South Asia held in Singapore in November 2008. It represents the expert knowledge and opinions of prominent academics and world leaders. Whether be it dealing with issues of trade and investment, soft power and cultural influence, or the reduction of poverty, the chapters in this book are both in-depth and rich in broader implications for the South Asian region and beyond.Economic developmentSouth AsiaCongressesEqualitySouth AsiaCongressesPovertySouth AsiaCongressesSouth AsiaPolitics and governmentCongressesEconomic developmentEqualityPoverty338.954Tan Tai Yong1961-520845International Conference on South Asia.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958280103321Challenges of economic growth, inequality, and conflict in South Asia4469192UNINA
