COMMENT ON NAVIGATING REFORMS: LESSONS FROM INDIA, THE 2008 WINCOTT LECTURE, GIVEN BY ARUN SHOURIE

ECONOMIC AFFAIRS, Issue 3 2009
Razeen Sally
Economic growth in India has been impressive in recent years. However, development has largely by-passed agriculture and labour-intensive industry, the sectors with the most potential to drive up living standards in the long term. Despite welcome recent efforts at reform, large parts of the Indian economy continue to be hindered by poor governance and over-regulation. [source]

A COMMENT ON ADAMS AND BALFOUR: DIGNITY VIOLATIONS, AN ALTERNATIVE VIEW OF ,ADMINISTRATIVE EVIL'

PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION, Issue 4 2008
FINN TSCHUDI
The major focus of Adams and Balfour's article in this volume is on what they call ,administrative evil' where ,evil' is not intended but somehow inherent in modern ,technical rationality'. Adams and Balfour draw inspiration from Bauman's (1989) work and, further, use the interesting metaphor that administrative evil is ,masked'. This means it is difficult to recognize , unlike intentional evil which is ,unmasked', that is, readily recognized. Common to both forms is that ,evil' implies ,depriving of humanity' or to ,make someone suffer', and there is no reason to question this. A basic aim of the article is thus to draw attention to ,masked evil', phenomena Adams and Balfour believe are insufficiently attended to. There is a broad variety of problems which Adams and Balfour do not touch on but which more or less appropriately can be subsumed under the label ,masked evil'. Adams and Balfour mention a continuum according to degree of deliberation on consequences. There are, however, no examples given of acts which do not occur at any extreme of deliberation. A related point is that there are historical and cultural determinants of whether (and to what extent) we regard some forms of suffering as ,evil' or not. [source]

THE FIRST FOSSIL PROSCOPIIDAE (INSECTA, ORTHOPTERA, EUMASTACOIDEA) WITH COMMENTS ON THE HISTORICAL BIOGEOGRAPHY AND EVOLUTION OF THE FAMILY

PALAEONTOLOGY, Issue 2 2008
SAM W. HEADSArticle first published online: 14 MAR 200
Abstract:,Eoproscopia martilli gen. et sp. nov. is described from the Early Cretaceous (Aptian) Crato Formation Lagerstätte of Ceará State, north-east Brazil. The new taxon is assigned to the extant family Proscopiidae and represents the first occurrence of the group in the fossil record. Eoproscopia is similar to crown group proscopiids in its stick-like habitus, elongate prothorax and absence of the cryptopleuron, but differs in the presence of well-developed wings, the short head with a small, simple fastigium, the prothoracic legs being inserted near the posterior margin of the prothorax, and the absence of spines on the metathoracic tibiae. The discovery of Eoproscopia extends the geological range of the family by approximately 110 myr and confirms the presence of stem-group proscopiids in the Atlantic rift zone of South America during the Early Cretaceous.
