Unpacking the linkages between mainstream education and private tutoring is fundamental for advancing knowledge on tutoring's implications for learners and systems of learning. This paper explores the micro-processes of teaching-learning at schools and tutoring centres to provide a nuanced understanding of the dynamics between them, in the context of India. Using qualitative data from lesson observations, interviews and focus group discussions with 85 participants, the paper explicates the teaching-learning processes in these two settings. The findings and analysis illuminate how actors in one setting shape their responses based on their perceptions of the other, thus influencing their pedagogical practices. The cyclic nature of the resulting dynamics highlights the negative implications for mainstream education in terms of undermining the implementation of progressive pedagogical reforms and inhibiting the need for systemic interventions to resolve incongruities and misalignments within the larger education system. This could result in a potentially vicious feedback loop. The non-binary exploration of this feedback loop has wider global relevance in terms of the nuances added to the theme of private tutoring's negative outcomes.

Purpose India, as a country, has been historically involved in various Corporate Socially Responsible (CSR) activities. In April 2013, the Indian government formalized CSR across industries by incorporating the Companies Act of 2013. In a country that has both communal poverty and individual wealth on a rapid rise, it is critical to understand how CSR has and can impact the way the country moves forward. Design/methodology/approach Several scholarly works in the field were reviewed to understand various CSR frameworks and their implementation across Indian businesses. This qualitative study examined CSR activities in select companies of Indian business from different perspectives viz., moral vs strategic, sustainability, philanthropic giving, ethical business, economic responsibility, financial performance, employee value proposition, social innovation, etc. Findings The study found that it is indeed feasible for large conglomerates to find compatibility with the CSR bill. The analysis has proven that companies can earn high profits while still contributing to social change. The Companies Act of 2013 concerning CSR has a significant implication on the Indian socio-economic development. As large companies have been required to donate 2% of their profits to CSR activities, this has generated awareness and has helped establish a culture of social responsibility. Practical Implications On an economic and policy level, this research will also help large conglomerations comprehend the nuances of the Companies Act and strategize how to best incorporate it into their missions, visions, and actions. Besides, insights from this research will help fine tune existing models or develop and embrace new models for CSR. Originality/Value While there have been numerous papers exploring CSR activities in India, there is little research available upon success or failure of the Companies Act of 2013, along with an assessment of what it has been done to usher forward the CSR movement. This paper does a holistic assessment of the act across sectors, and will prove valuable to leaders of organizations looking to establish and enhance their CSR initiatives. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

During the last decades, Latin America experienced sustained growth in its trade with Asia. In the case of Argentina, the trade balance accounts for the significant weight of Asia Pacific in exports: China and India consolidated themselves as Argentina’s 2nd and 4th export destination in 2021. In the case of Beijing, which is consecrated as the second trading partner, Argentina has maintained a deficit balance since 2008. In this context, the growing link with other Asian countries with which it also shares a high economic complementarity, allows the design of a more balanced insertion strategy in Asia Pacific. In this way, the negative balances are offset by the trade surpluses that Argentina maintains with countries in the region such as Vietnam (3,220 million dollars), Indonesia (1,862 million) and India (4,293) million) (UN COMTRADE, 2022). Regarding the latter, bilateral trade recorded a record high in 2021, reaching a total of 5,686 million dollars (UN COMTRADE, 2022). At the same time, bilateral political-diplomatic relations are experiencing increasing development, establishing as both emerging Asian Strategic Associations from the 21st century, which project ties in the long term and expand the spheres of cooperation. This paper will analyze the main characteristics of Argentina’s political ties and trade relations with China and India. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper examines the impact on Indian democracy of current Prime Minister Narendra Modi's populism. Our analysis argues that populism has been a useful tool in the deepening of democracy in India. Appealing to the "people" as a political construct with a broad social base has helped to transcend traditional identity cleavages. But in contrast to that form of transversal and inclusive populism, the subject of this paper is Modi's current version, which is built on a form of Hinduist exclusivism. Such a narrative of exclusion endangers the social contract born out of the idea of India as unity in diversity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The increasing dispute between the United States of America and China finds a main area of competition around 5G, which will enable a substantial improvement in the capacity for vehicle auto-guidance, remote operations, robotics, artificial intelligence and other dual-use applications. While 5G is still emerging, the global shaping of the network infrastructure, regulations, patents and standards involves the Global South. It is an eminently global dispute for markets, but also for national security, which has gained a central place on the foreign policy agenda of most of the countries around the globe. In this context, the objective of this text is to analyze the emergent conditions of 5G in two of the main countries of the Global South, India and Brazil, within the dispute between the US and China. Through the contextualization of this dispute and its implications in India and Brazil, we seek to extract a series of preliminary reflections for other countries of the Global South. Thus, this paper contributes to a key area understanding the emergent conditions of a new phase of the mobile telecommunications paradigm developing two main cases still unexplored systematically by the literature in Spanish.

Resumen: Siguiendo el marco de Dingeldey et al. (2021), pero con un enfoque cualitativo, se analiza la segmentación legal del trabajo en China, la India, Malasia y Viet Nam, prestando atención a los niveles de exclusión y a las jerarquías de protección otorgada. El autor observa varios factores que diferencian a estos países de los del Norte y que determinan sus mercados de trabajo: el tamaño relativo de la población activa que opera fuera de la cobertura efectiva de la reglamentación laboral; la terminología jurídica, de difícil traducción a los idiomas occidentales; y la historia jurídica, especialmente en lo que respecta al desajuste entre los marcos jurídicos y el mercado laboral resultante del colonialismo.

In this paper we seek to carry out a diagnosis of the links between India and Argentina in the context of the strategy of approach of the Asian country towards the Latin American region. The focus will be set on the political-diplomatic and trade aspects and in the challenges and potentialities that the emergence of this new actor can present to Argentina. First, it will be analyzed India's actions in Latin America; then the characteristics of the bilateral relations, with special emphasis on Argentina's foreign policy towards India; and an introduction to the main characteristics of trade relations, analyzing its implications to Argentina. We arrive to the conclusion that, two of Argentina's main challenges are to diversify its export offer and to set technological and energetic cooperation schemes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyzes the factors influencing the choice between different FDI modes: acquisitions or green-field investments. From a sample of 117 outward foreign direct investment (FDI) decisions made by the Indian multinational Tata in 43 countries, our findings show that industry technological intensity, host country risk, host market attractiveness, previous international experience and the volume of exports from India to the host country, are determining factors of this choice.
