The first book to examine the complex economic, social, and political effects of emigration on India, Diaspora, Development, and Democracy provides a conceptual framework for understanding the repercussions of international migration on migrants' home countries. Devesh Kapur finds that migration has influenced India far beyond a simplistic "brain drain"--migration's impact greatly depends on who leaves and why. The book offers new methods and empirical evidence for measuring these traits and shows how data about these characteristics link to specific outcomes. For instance, the positive selection of Indian migrants through education has strengthened India's democracy by creating a political space for previously excluded social groups. Because older Indian elites have an exit option, they are less likely to resist the loss of political power at home. Education and training abroad has played an important role in facilitating the flow of expertise to India, integrating the country into the world economy, positively shaping how India is perceived, and changing traditional conceptions of citizenship. The book highlights a paradox--while international migration is a cause and consequence of globalization, its effects on countries of origin depend largely on factors internal to those countries. A rich portrait of the Indian migrant community, Diaspora, Development, and Democracy explores the complex political and economic consequences of migration for the countries migrants leave behind.East IndiansForeign countriesIndiaEmigration and immigrationIndiaEmigration and immigrationEconomic aspectsIndiaEmigration and immigrationPolitical aspectsEast Indians304.80954Kapur Devesh1959-144664MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785266903321Diaspora, development, and democracy766456UNINA00771nam0 22002291i 450 UON0022138620231205103416.52920030730d1935 |0itac50 baczeCZ|||| |||||Deravy plástJan CepPrahaMelantrich A.S.1935162 p.20 cm.891.86Letteratura ceca21CEPJanUONV134133685375ITSOL20240220RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00221386SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI CECO A CEP 0001 SI MR 7285 5 0001 Deravy plást1267123UNIOR01998nam 2200577 450 991080615530332120230803033316.01-4619-5240-91-4384-4807-4(CKB)3710000000073487(EBL)3408803(SSID)ssj0001062226(PQKBManifestationID)11666119(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001062226(PQKBWorkID)11016595(PQKB)10783128(MiAaPQ)EBC3408803(OCoLC)868173249(MdBmJHUP)muse27208(Au-PeEL)EBL3408803(CaPaEBR)ebr10806325(EXLCZ)99371000000007348720130201d2013 uy 0engur|||||||nn|ntxtccrThe hidden lives of Brahman Śaṅkara's Vedānta through his Upanisad commentaries, in light of contemporary practice /Joël André-Michel Dubois ; foreword by Christopher Key ChappleAlbany :State University of New York Press,2013.1 online resource (447 p.)SUNY series in religious studiesDescription based upon print version of record.1-4384-4805-8 Includes bibliographical references.""Saá¹?skÄ?ra Perfected in the Rhetorics of Debate"""Using both textual and ethnographic sources, demonstrates that in Sankara's vedanta brahman is an active force as well as a transcendent ultimate"--Provided by publisher.SUNY Series in Religious StudiesBrahmanVedantaBrahman.Vedanta.294.5/2113Dubois Joël André-Michel1965-1669985MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910806155303321The hidden lives of Brahman4031525UNINA
