An article
2nd March 1999 Srinath Srinivasa @usa.net
I have just completed to put down my thoughts which I had posted in separate mails, into a single article. Although it does not portray everything that I had rambled about-- I guess it could form the kernel. Essentially, my argument is that it is futile to keep blaming the government or the corruption for all our ills. Both of them are part of a deeper systemic skew with no single adversary. We need to identify that in India we have had a timeless civilization where paradigms from long long ago coexist with paradigms of yesterday and today. We only need to tap the innovative potential of our people to find new means of combining them together. Please see the URL http://www.indiapolicy.org/ifi/articles/indcon.htm and give me your comments. Would you agree with the model and the deductions made at the end? If yes, then how do you suggest we go about it? The article is in HTML and a trifle too long to be posted on IINN, so I am passing on only the URL. Thanks Srinath -- Send in your ideas to address challenges of Indian life: http://www.indiapolicy.org/ifi
