DESCRIPTION
Democracy, as a system of governance is widely acknowledged and well established phenomenon all over the world. The growth of democracy is not uniform in all the parts of the world. It has to be nurtured, sustained and institutionalized which is possible if there is distributive justice. State is an important institution as it creates necessary conditions for the growth and sustenance of democracy. The urge of modernisation, shared borders, weak territorial base, overlapping ethnicity, weak governance has frequently exploded into wars and intervensions in these countries. The present volume is an attempt in understanding these trends and issues.
