PERSPECTIVES ON GOVERNANCE AND SOCIETY : Essays in Honour of Professor

Much discussion and debate has been going on among academics and policy makers about issues related to nation building and political development, and the role of governance in providing services to the general public in the most efficient manner. The book is a step forward in this quest for good governance. The present anthology, which is a tribute to Professor O.P. Dwivedi, reflects upon his broad scholarship in areas as diverse as public ethics, religion/spirituality and global environment. The book is divided into two parts — ethics of governance and environment and society, respectively, written specifically to celebrate Professor Dwivedi’s contribution to scholarship and intellectual discourse spanning more than four decades.
