Against the backdrop of the economic crisis that began in 2008 and the rise of populist parties, a new body of research has used interwar political developments to warn that even long-established Western democracies are fragile. We challenge this interwar analogy based on the fact that a relatively large number of interwar democracies were able to survive the recurrent crises of the 1920s and 1930s. The main aim of this book is to understand the striking resilience of these democracies, and how they differed from the many democracies that broke down in the same period. Previous theoretical accounts, which can be divided into structuralist, elitist, associational, and performance-based perspectives, do not adequately explain this variation. We advance an explanation that nests an associational perspective in a structuralist perspective. The model centres on democratic legacies and strong associational landscapes (i.e. vibrant civil societies and party institutionalization). These factors are rooted in a set of structural conditions associated with socio-economic development and state- and nation-building processes. Our empirical strategy consists of a combination of systematic comparisons of all interwar democratic spells and in-depth case-studies.

This comparative, quantitative analysis complements the varied literature concerning women in politics by illustrating the importance of two domains in that literature: state socio-economic development and political-cultural factors. This analysis supports the observations made in some case studies that women's representation is bound by certain socio-economic parameters. Factors which operationalize the socio-economic development of a state are found more important than political-cultural dimensions of state politics. By supplementing case studies with the comparative aggregate data of this paper, one contributes to a more holistic understanding of women in state politics.

Increasing Trend

Most of the MBA Colleges and Business Schools are not imparting Arthashastra, karma lessons apart from the formal courses, case studies and classwork on finance, marketing, accounting and economics’-B-School students in India deserve to learn about Kautilya’s Arthashastra, an ancient treatise on statecraft, economic policy and military strategy. “The scandals like Sahara, Satyam, Chit fund Scams, Kingfisher Airlines and Nirav Modi, further increasing trend of wilful loan defaulters to banks, huge deposits made by a few business firms/individuals during demonetisation expose the weak foundations of ethics and values in Indian business scenarios,” therefore Business Schools must come forward to teach beyond Business Ethics i.e.., Karma Lessons and Socio Economic Development process as mentioned in Arthashastra. This article highlights Socio, Economic and Development thoughts of Kautilya’s Arthashastra that is relevant to Business Schools.

Lack Of Knowledge

This article examines the experiences of women entrepreneurs who started their business in the maternity or childcare leave period. The findings significantly differ from those case studies reported in the literature. The examined case highlights the financial reason that contradicts earlier publications regarding European women who ‘want to be a good mom, but not just a housewife’. Furthermore, the study revealed the lack of knowledge among mumpreneurs in the field of law and taxation. Therefore, they mostly operate without official registration and pay no taxes. However, the data from this study revealed certain latent entrepreneurial potential that can be developed and may influence socio-economic development of the community.
