Social Safety Nets in India: Effectiveness, Nutritional Impact and Political Economy. India is, potentially, one of Australia's most significant trading and strategic partners. As India, a democratic country with low per capita income deepens its economic reforms programs, their success depends critically upon domestic political support which would require that the policies adopted make a significant dent on poverty. The proposed research will examine the impact of two of the most significant p ....Social Safety Nets in India: Effectiveness, Nutritional Impact and Political Economy. India is, potentially, one of Australia's most significant trading and strategic partners. As India, a democratic country with low per capita income deepens its economic reforms programs, their success depends critically upon domestic political support which would require that the policies adopted make a significant dent on poverty. The proposed research will examine the impact of two of the most significant policy initiatives for poverty alleviation and thus provide critical analyses of how a democratic polity should address poverty. The project's results will also have significant implications for the design of AusAID's recommended anti-poverty interventions in other developing countries. Read moreRead less

Transparency International and the Problem of Corruption. The project aims first, to produce a history of the emergence and rise to prominence of Transparency International (TI), a unique international non-governmental organisation devoted exclusively to the fight against corruption. Secondly, it will use this history as a framework (and substantial empirical anchor) for investigating some of the more important recent developments both in the conceptualisation of corruption and in anti-corruptio ....Transparency International and the Problem of Corruption. The project aims first, to produce a history of the emergence and rise to prominence of Transparency International (TI), a unique international non-governmental organisation devoted exclusively to the fight against corruption. Secondly, it will use this history as a framework (and substantial empirical anchor) for investigating some of the more important recent developments both in the conceptualisation of corruption and in anti-corruption practice: the increasing influence of economic perspectives on corruption; changing perceptions of the relationship between corruption and development; and the internationalisation of the problem of corruption.Read moreRead less
