Probable, Improbable, and Catastrophic Realisms in Amitav Ghosh’s Fiction
This chapter takes up questions of form and genre in Amitav Ghosh’s key novels. It focuses on the use of realism as the chosen mode of representation in Ghosh’s many historical fictions. The chapter argues that despite the choice of realism, Ghosh, in many of his novels, has skillfully delineated the improbable in fictional worlds often governed by the laws of probability and chance. The chapter begins with a critical examination of Ghosh’s nonfi…
The Impact of Institutional Formation on Firms’ Strategic Choices in Knowledge Development, Absorptive Capacity and Vertical Integration
This study examines the impact of institutional shifts on the strategic choices of Russian firms. It proposes and tests hypotheses of how a shift from a weak to a strong institutional context is likely to affect firms’ knowledge accumulation, absorptive capacities and internalisation of operations. Using discriminant analysis, the econometric investigation demonstrates that firms tend to allocate greater resources towards improving their knowledg…

The Synergistic Effect of State Regulation and Self-Regulation on Disclosure Level of Director and Executive Remuneration in Australia
This article examines how the introduction of a mix of state and market-based regulatory mechanisms representing formal and informal institutional elements, respectively, impacts disclosure level of director and executive remuneration in Australia. In doing so, our study steps beyond the simple state versus market dichotomy that the extant literature is primarily concerned with and proposes a symbiotic relationship between the two. The results of…
Imagining Otherwise
As someone who entered the United States as a foreign student in the late 1980s, my academic career was intensely shaped by the then burgeoning discourses on colonialism and postcolonialism.1 The triumvirate of Said, Spivak, and Bhabha functioned like a citation machine; and despite Said's Orientalism, South Asia, especially India, dominated as the colonial/postcolonial site par excellence. Much of this had to do not just with the presence of man…
