This volume looks at human rights in independent India through frameworks comparable to those in other postcolonial nations in the Global South. It examines wide-ranging issues that require immediate attention such as those related to disability, violence, torture, education, LGBT, neoliberalism, and social justice.

They also discuss cases connected with human rights violations in India and underline the need for a transparent approach and a more comprehensive perspective of India’s human rights record.

It will also be useful to scholars and researchers of Indian politics, law and sociology.

The book opens with an article by Lars Christersson, who is a leading short rotation forestry specialist from Sweden and has two other books to his credit. The book deals with various aspects of short rotation forestry, like silviculture, physiology, irrigation effects, productivity potential, processing and production, propagation techniques, genetic improvement and genetic diversity to the role of short rotation species in agro-forestry. Rather short rotation species currently being used in agro-forestry find major mention and treatment in the compendium.
