In this paper we axiomatically characterize a solution to choice problems on non-convex domains, which satisfies mid-point domination and other intuitively reasonable properties.

In this paper we study continuity properties of bargaining solutions which are defined with respect to a criterion function. Sufficient conditions are obtained for the solutions to be continuous and the exercise is carried out in a fairly general framework.

In this paper a schematic framework towards systematization of “General Knowledge” as a selection tool has been suggested. The standardized methods for GK test construction, test-format and scoring procedure have been presented. It is hoped that the framework presented in this paper will...

Various organizations are recognizing the social responsibilities. One of the responsibilities of the organization is to look at change in a more planned way. The various innovations which the organization can make may be more systematically planned. Organizations interact with the environment....

The need for environmental scanning acquires great policy significance for both the micro-unit and the macro-economy in a developing country like India which is trying to achieve the objectives of economic development and distributional justice simultaneously through national planning. This...

This paper deals with empirical quantification of distributional impact of government expenditure on selected social services like education, health, medical and family planning at state level. The distributional impact has been quantified in accordance with three alternative points of view. The...

This paper develops a computational algorithm for estimating the mean objective function value of a stochastic linear programming problem of the passive or wait-and-see type. The algorithm is applied to a problem connected with design of a ‘milk-grid’ in India and is found to be...

Development of entrepreneurship depends not only on the supply of credit, but also on appropriate technology especially in backward areas. There have been several credit facilities offered to small firms, and there have been several studies on the efficacy of such facilities. The role of...

In this paper we study the one sector optimal growth model with uncertain planning horizons. We prove the non-existence of steady states, and the dependence of optimal capital stock at time ‘t’ on the conditional probability of a ‘t’ period planning horizon given that the planning...

The emergence of a cuberconnected Global Village demonstrates the need for a universal time for global events. A professor at the Indian Institute of Management in Ahmedabad argues that we need to delink the measurement of time from geography. Starting with a review of the Concept of Time in...
