The article describes the development experience of India since its nascency as a democratic state in 1947. The early adopted economic system of the so-called 'Indian socialism', which included both elements of a free market and of central planning, failed to bring the expected results. The Indian economy experienced slow growth. and India's share in the Asian and world economy was systematically decreasing. In the early 1990-ties India introduced radical reforms aimed at liberalization of the economy and its opening towards the world. The reforms positively influenced the process of modernization of the economy and accelerated its development. The Indian economy has become one of the biggest and fastest developing in the world. The paper includes an international comparison of competitiveness of the Indian economy. It shows that India has great chances of dynamic development in the future.

Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by stippled epiphyses and rhizomelic shortening of the long bones. We report 3 subjects of rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata from India and the PEX7 mutations identified in them. The common PEX7-L292X allele, whose high frequency is due to a founder effect in the northern European Caucasian population, was not identified in these patients. Instead, 2 novel alleles are described, including 64_65delGC, which was present on a single PEX7 haplotype and could represent a common allele in the Indian population.

The 20th century India witnessed a quite strong tendency towards the separation of philosophy from religion, regarding them as two autonomous phenomena. This tendency corresponded with a more general endeavour, namely getting philosophy closer to science. The author focuses especially on the new streams, which appeared by the end of the millennium and are still relevant today. These include philosophy of science, feminist philosophy, Gandhian philosophy, postcolonial studies (in terms of their importance for philosophy) as well as still reverberant existentialist and Marxist doctrines.

Upon partition of the Indian subcontinent in 1947, Pakistan consisted of two in parts: West and East. Their common feature was Islam, but they differed language and culture. The more numerous Bengali population in East Pakistan was politically dominated by Urdu speaking West Pakistan. In 1970 the Awami League, a Bengali political party led by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, won the first free election. Although the Awami League obtained a majority in the National Assembly, the president of Pakistan, Yahya Khan, postponed the convection of the Assembly. Sheikh Mujibur Rahman called for a strike in East Pakistan. Hence, on March 25 and 26 1970, the West Pakistani army marched into East Pakistan and launched severely repressive actions. Millions of Bengali fled to India causing incredible economic problems for this country. On 7 August 1971 Pakistani air-forces attacked India's western borders. A fortnight's war ended with India's victory over Pakistan, and with recognition of Bangladesh as an independent country. At the end of June 1972, the Presidents of India and Pakistan met in Simla and signed an agreement ending hostility.

The text indicates the second half of the 20th century as a turning point in the 19th century perception of history that was used by European imperialists to justify their colonial expansion. He proves that historical thinking is conditioned culturally taking as an example the contrast between India and the West. Anticolonial movements reverse the colonial discourse making it an argument for a quick democratisation of the societies that diverge from the European model due to a reduced number of civilisation development stages and a resignation from the historical perspective. Subaltern Studies undermine the universality of the European model of modernity and its adequacy in the former colonies after the fall of the Western empires.

The aim of this paper is to demonstrate historically conditioned context of Weber's analysis of “religion of India”. Weber and his work is part of orientalistic discourse – Weber assumes then Western image of India, and reproduces and incorporates this image into sociological thinking. This text focuses on some elements of this image: caste system as the most important element of Hinduism, confidence to sacred texts and secret sexualism as opposite of noble official religion of intellectual elite. These stereotypes have helped the defence of notion of European exceptionalism, by which other cultures may not develop modern capitalism as the base of modernity.

When in 1994 Indian Parliament enacted a law forbidding human organs trade (THOA), the doctors and donor organizations were forced to rely on altruistic feelings of donors. Medical authorities and politicians defended the new system of donor ship referring to the philosophy of unselfish gift, especially gift of the body (deha-dāna) in Vedas, reinterpreting ancient stories of generosity and unselfish giving in a way that convenes with the demands of medical praxis. Nevertheless, the new legislative brought new problems and several medical authorities claim that the system of voluntarily donor ship is not the path for India. They are calling for transparent pluralistic system of donor ship. In following paper the author will try to show how strong and perspective is a symbolic bridge, by which the Indian authorities try to connect the contemporary donor practice with the philosophy of the gift in Vedas.

The article discusses the incorporation of globally spread socio-political categories by groups from outside the Western cultural circles. The author aims to explain the reasoning behind these ideas and how they are translated into the practice of everyday life. As an illustration of the problem she has chosen the discourse on animal rights and vegetarianism as the 'new Tibetan tradition', since during several years of field research in the camps of Tibetan refugees in India she had the opportunity to follow the birth of the idea and its development. Refugees are an interesting group to analyze such phenomena, because they are part of what is called the 'international refugee regime' and are forced to engage in a dialogue with the dominant discourses. The article shows that although the participants of the dialogue do not have equal rights, it can be the source of the group subjectivity, and the group uses it to accomplish their own objectives. Eric Hobsbawm's concept of 'invention of tradition' has been used to analyze the process.

The present paper attempts to interrogate the existing approach to understand academic achievement in the mainstream educational psychology. The paper explores the persistent question of “why academic achievement gap” in the modern society from the cultural ecological and post-formalist framework of John Ogbu and Joe Kincheloe respectively. As mainstream educational psychology limits its scope in the narrowed individualistic lens, paper suggests that dominant identity based curriculum, pedagogy and knowledge may concretize the psychological categories unless revolutionary efforts are made to transcend the boundaries. Thus, paper adopts critical interdisciplinary framework, rejecting positivistic metatheory as an only relevant approach in educational psychology.

This paper discusses how Indira Mahindra’s The End Play (1995) represents the effect of social change on women’s ideology and the society surrounding the sequential female generations – the grandmother, the mother, and granddaughter. Hence, each female character represents a different model, thereby representing its own ideology and social position. The paper also explores the effect of social change in relation to issues such as marriage, work, women’s rights, divorce, betrayal, women’s virginity, and the stereotypical images of women – all of which are related to Indian Feminism. However, before embarking on this discussion, it is vital for this critical investigation to identify the concept of ideology, and feminist theories and movements in India.

In his study, the author searches for the causes of polarized tension in our perception of the paired terms - East and West. He seeks reasons behind this acute dichotomy and points out the sources and manifestations of the so-called Orientalism and its specific form - Balkanism. Methodological blunders prevent us from reaching more deeply into the processes that are under way in two great Himalayan powers. China, which is no longer merely a developing country, has experienced a fourth decade of steady real economic growth. India has recently undergone massive changes, too.

The largest Tibetan diaspora in the world lives in India. This year it is celebrating fifty years of its existence. A large percentage of this community are 'born refugees' - a young generation, who have never seen Tibet and the only reality that they know of is India. What is striking is a very limited impact of the Indian culture on the view and attitudes of young Tibetans. Young Tibetans have an ambivalent attitude to their 'new motherland'. On the one hand they realise that Indian authorities have offered their families an asylum and have extended considerable financial support within the framework of refugee adaptation schemes. They know that they should be grateful for that. At the same time, however, they feel like second class citizens - they have no electoral rights, they have no passports, they cannot buy land. In everyday life Tibetans hardly ever make friends with members of a host society. Marriages with them are even less frequent. They perceive them as xenophobic and dull. They oppose Buddhist equality to social inequalities imposed by the caste system. They despise the Indian policy for corruption and exploitation; they do not trust the Indian justice system. This article attempts to answer the question how young Tibetans born in India perceive Indian culture and how they minimise its influence upon their own lives. The author also discusses the extent to which such practices are the result of the intentional policy of the Tibetan Government in Exile, oriented to non-assimilation and building of a pan-Tibetan identity in the diaspora
