    The development of supergravity grand unification: Circa 1982 1985

    No full text
    The development in the early eighties of supergravity grand unified models with gravity-mediated breaking of supersymmetry has led to a remarkable progress in the study of supersymmetry at colliders, in dark matter and in a variety of other experimental searches in the intervening years since that time. The purpose of this note is to review this development and describe our construction of this theory in the period 1982-1985. © 2012 World Scientific Publishing Company.Aad G, 2012, PHYS LETT B, V716, P1, DOI 10.1016-j.physletb.2012.08.020; Ahmed Z, 2010, SCIENCE, V327, P1619, DOI 10.1126-science.1186112; Ahmed Z, 2009, PHYS REV LETT, V102, DOI 10.1103-PhysRevLett.102.011301; Akula S, 2012, PHYS REV D, V85, DOI 10.1103-PhysRevD.85.075001; ALVAREZGAUME L, 1983, NUCL PHYS B, V221, P495, DOI 10.1016-0550-3213(83)90591-6; Aprile E., ARXIV11042549ASTROPH; ARNOWITT R, 1983, PHYS REV LETT, V50, P232, DOI 10.1103-PhysRevLett.50.232; ARNOWITT R, 1985, PHYS LETT B, V156, P215, DOI 10.1016-0370-2693(85)91512-6; ARNOWITT R, 1992, PHYS REV LETT, V69, P725, DOI 10.1103-PhysRevLett.69.725; Arnowitt R., 1962, GRAVITATION INTRO CU; Arnowitt R, 2008, PHYS REV LETT, V100, DOI 10.1103-PhysRevLett.100.231802; ARNOWITT R, 1975, PHYS LETT B, VB 56, P81, DOI 10.1016-0370-2693(75)90504-3; Arnowitt R.

    Suggesting Effective Policy Frames for Chronic Poverty Alleviation in India

    This is a continuation of an earlier paper (2005) by the author which dealt with policy implications based on the work done by CPRC in India. There is no map of chronic poverty in India, but have an approximate idea of numbers and communities where it has a significant presence. The author has used surrogates like tribal populations, senior citizens and women self-help groups to draw broad conclusions.

    Curing Cholera: Pathogens, Places and Poverty in South Asia

    No full text
    In this paper I will seek to provide a new understanding of endemicity of disease in India. Through a study of cholera research in the twentieth century I will argue that disease and its endemicity has to be understood in biological factors as well as within a wider social and economic context. I will discuss the medical efforts at locating the causality of cholera from the nineteenth century in Indian climate, water bodies and human anatomy to show that cholera is no more a biological phenomena than water is an ecological or environmental problem. Both are essentially political and economic questions

    X-efficiency Analysis of Commercial Banks in Pakistan: A Preliminary Investigation

    No full text
    The emergence of a fast-paced dynamic environment in the business world in general, and in the financial services sector in particular, has highlighted the significance of competition and efficiency. The need for deregulation has become a touchstone of success in fostering both competition and efficiency especially in the economies, which are exposed to structural reforms. In addition to that, intense competition both among domestic and foreign banks, rapid speed of innovations and introduction of new financial instruments, changing consumer’s demands and desire for product augmentation have changed the way a bank conducts business and services its customers. Larger the degree of competition, it is perceived that the firms would become more efficient. However, when the structure of an industry is product of the government regulations, the degree of competition is impaired markedly implying that the efficiency suffers negatively. Banking industry acts as life-blood of modern trade and commerce acting as a bridge to provide a major source of financial intermediation. Thus, appraisal of its efficiency is vital in context of an efficient and competitive financial system. Study of x-efficiency is believed to be important in particular as Berger, et al. (1993) found that x-inefficiencies account for around 20 percent or more of banking costs. Similarly, recent drive among banks towards downsizing, rightsizing and rationalisation of banking costs also implicates for the assessment of x-efficiency analysis of banks. It becomes vital in Pakistani context as there appears to be no study in literature on efficiency or x-efficiency analysis of banks in Pakistan. “A great deal more work is needed on x-efficiency research in banking. Managerial efficiency, the concept of x-efficiency, appears to be a much more important strategic and policy consideration” [Molyneux, et al. (1960), p. 273]. Given
