About The SARCist:
The SARCist is an initiative of the Centre for Policy Research, New Delhi, India. It is funded by The Asia Foundation. In response to the renewed interest in the development of South Asia as a regional economic entity; The SARCist is an initiative towards building a virtual knowledge platform for purposes of policy advocacy on issues of regional cooperation with particular emphasis on trade and investment flows. South Asia has a rich heritage of internationally renowned Think Tanks working on various policy issues pertaining to regional cooperation. The SARCist endeavours to bring together the excellent work being done by many of these think tanks in South Asia as well as think tanks outside South Asia which are working on South Asian cooperation. It also intends to bring together lesser known, yet immensely strategic institutions in border states working on cross-border trade issues.
The SARCist helps to create a virtual space which acts as a one-stop-shop for all policy reports, data analysis, news and events, and other knowledge products developed by the various think tanks in the region. The SARCist endeavours to take it a step further and provide a space for experts and young scholars to debate and discuss key issues of relevance on trade and investment in South Asia. This will in turn help to generate new knowledge products and promote greater regional cooperation among South Asian countries.
I look forward to your participation.
A line of confirmation will be highly appreciated.
With regards,
Navroz Dubash

Save Dissent to Save Democracy   THE rising instances of physical violence and threats against political opponents and the inability to accept dissent must raise huge concerns amongst all of us who see democracy as perhaps the really stellar achievement since Independence. AAP’s attack on BJP headquarters and acts of arson committed under the very noses of their elite leadership; the attacks on Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia in Gujarat in the last two days; the recent manhandling of the caretaker of journalist Siddharth Varadarajan’s house by some garden variety thugs; and the violence and threats meted out regularly to their political opponents by political parties is surely deplorable and condemnable.

Replaying the past To begin with, it must be clarified that we should ...
