Описание: A New Republic Editors' and Writers' Pick 2012
A New Yorker Contributors' Pick 2012 A Newsweek "Must Read on Modern India"
"For people who savored Katherine Boo's Behind the Beautiful Forevers."--Evan Osnos, newyorker.com A portrait of the incredible change and economic development of modern India, and of social and national transformation there told through individual lives Raised in India, and educated in the U.S., Akash Kapur returned to India in 2003 to raise a family. What he found was an ancient country in transition. In search of the life that he and his wife want to lead, he meets an array of Indians who teach him much about the realities of this changed country: an old landowner sees his rural village destroyed by real estate developments, and crime and corruption breaking down the feudal authority; a 21-year-old single woman and a 35-year-old divorcee exploring the new cultural allowances for women; and a young gay man coming to terms with his sexual identity - something never allowed him a generation ago.
As Akash and his wife struggle to find the right balance between growth and modernity and the simplicity and purity they had known from the Indian countryside a decade ago, they ultimately find a country that "has begun to dream." But also one that may be moving away too quickly from the valuable ways in which it is different.

Описание: The rise of the regulatory state has been a major feature of modern constitutional democracies. India, the world’s largest democracy, is no exception to this trend. This book is the first major study of regulation in India. It considers how the development of regulation in India has altered the nature and functions of the state; how it is reshaping the relationship between business and the state; how it has called for the refashioning of established legal principles; and how it has raised new questions about the relationship between technical expertise and the rule of law. The chapters cover topics ranging from the foundations of the Indian regulatory state to the form of regulation across different sectors to regulation in practice. Together, the chapters reveal the challenges, promise, and limitations offered by contemporary regulatory practices, and they capture the close if sometimes fraught relationship that regulation must inevitably share with the political economy and constitutional schema within which it operates.
Описание: From Whiting Creative Nonfiction GranteeAkash Kapur, a transfixing masterwork that probes an unsolved family mystery and portrays a utopian community striving to create a better world. The quest to build utopia has a long history; in the 1960s, hopes surged as seekers from around the planet founded intentional communities that they hoped would provide alternatives for a strife-torn world. One such community was Auroville, located on a weather-beaten landscape of hard clay and palm trees in coastal South India. Akash Kapur's stunning book is about what happened when a beautiful young rebel from Belgium, Diane Maes, and a scion from a powerful American family, John Walker, met in Auroville: how they became drawn into the community's tumultuous history, and why they died--shockingly, tragically--on the same day. Founded in 1968 by a French woman known as "The Mother," Auroville is an aspiring spiritual utopia seeking to reinvent money, government, education, and ecology. Now home to 3,000 residents, it is one of the longest-lasting and largest intentional communities in the world. After Diane's death, her daughter Auralice was taken in by John Walker's family, in New York City. She later married Akash, who himself grew up in Auroville. Auralice's understanding of Diane's and John's deaths had always been hazy. It was only when Akash and Auralice moved back some thirty years later to Auroville, where they started their own family, that they began to unravel the mysteries and myths that had long surrounded those distant events. Better to Have Gone blends memoir, history, sociology, and politics. It probes the under-explored yet universal idea of utopia, and it portrays in vivid detail the daily life of one particular utopian community. Above all, it is a love story about two doomed and idealistic dreamers, wrapped in the longing of the daughter who has lost them. Richly atmospheric and filled with remarkable characters, the book explores timeless questions about faith, idealism, spiritual exploration, as well as the extremism into which these noble impulses so often descend. Spread across time and continents, this is narrative writing of the highest order, a heartbreaking, unforgettable story.
