Advanced technology does not always mean simplicity and quickness. Instead of making things easier, technology or better our use of it can make things much more complicated, silly and banal. My old NOKIA mobile offers basic service but it makes its day. And I am grateful that it is too old to know what Face Book mean...

We should wonder why liberal democracy has not been able to offer new and legitimate “venues” to hear and accommodate different opinions.

HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

Poverty has since long been considered  the cause of deprivation  of  human rights around the world.   It is often argued that the “have nots” of the world do not have basic human rights because they are poor. However, the discourse on poverty would  be  incomplete if we  do not discuss the other aspect of the argument, ie: Why are people poor.

CSR is too often confused with charity. No doubt charity or philanthropic efforts are part of it but actually the concept is much broader.Shared Value can help: it encourages companies to pursue innovative market based strategy and innovation that can address persistent problems faced by the humanity. Clearly profit has a great role in it but it is not the only factor.
