ISBN 3-515-05212-7 Bibliography and abbreviations pp. 13-14, appendix pp. 167-171, drawings : yantras [pp. 173-239] The Sanskrit text of Yantracintmai which is widespread in northern
and central India expresses the magic (adhicra) or the realisation
of the "six magic arts" (satkarmni) : vakarana (to bring
under control), stambhana (to bring under spell), vidvea
(to split), ucctana (to uproot, to banish), mrana (to kill)
and nti (to satisfy). The work describes the respective yantras
(magic diagrams) required for the special acts, the necessary substances
for the process and the rites to be performed. Various, sometimes even
differently titled, manuscripts and texts demonstrate the previous and
prevalent popularity of the Yantracintmai among certain groups.
The present work is the first attempt at a critical edition. The yantras
- in varying versions of different manuscripts and editions - are depicted
in the appendix. 122 Die sowjetische Entwicklungspolitik gegenüber der Dritten Welt unter besonderer Berücksichtigung Indiens [The Soviet development policy regarding the Third World with special reference to India] / von [by] Klaus-Dieter Müller. - 1988. XIII, 433 p. ISBN 3-515-05284-4 Literaturnachweis [bibliography] pp. 395-430, English summary pp. 431-433. This monograph analyses Soviet Third World development policy, especially
with regard to India, from the end of World War II till well into the
eighties. The developments in the Soviet Union have had their antecedents
much earlier in another field : development policy. Since the beginning
of the sixties, there have been many discussions with\on the Third World
and gradually also regarding Soviet development projects, there. The crisis
of Soviet development policy actually overshadowed the over-all problem
in the Soviet Union. Development policy, in particular, clearly demonstrates
the differences between ideological claims and reality. The weaknesses
of the Soviet economic and social system are clearly shown. The Soviet
Union was unable to offer an alternative to western policy for all countries
of the Third World, but for some of these countries, economic cooperation
proved to be rather advantageous for both sides, especially for India,
the focus of Soviet development policy among the capitalistically oriented
developing countries. 123 Effektive Protektion von Rohstoffproduktion und -verarbeitung : mit empirischen Untersuchungen zur philippinischen Volkswirtschaft [Effective protection of the production and processing of raw materials : with am empirical study of the Philippine economy] / von [by] Markus Kramer. - 1988. XV, 289 p. ISBN 3-515-05348-4 56 Tabellen im Text [tables in the text], 3 Abbildungen [graphs], 11 Tabellen [tables] im Anhang [in the appendix], Bibliographie [bibliography] pp. 272 to 289, English summary [pp. 290-293]. This study, concentrating on the Philippines, aims at defining the question
in which way the agricultural sector has suffered from import substitutions
oriented towards promoting the industrialisation in the country. The approach
of an effective protection is analysed taking into account the specific
circumstances of economic-political instruments. The author discusses
measures of economic policy with regard to an effective protection of
a number of major agricultural products focusing on the production of
coconuts. 124 Sozialstrukturen im Kumaon : Bergbauern im Himalaya [Social structures in Kumaon : mountain famers in the Himalaya] / von [by] Monika Krengel. - 1988. XIV, 315 p. ISBN 3-515-05358-1 1 Karte [map], 14 Tabellen [tables], 3 Abbildungen [graphs], 12 Photos, Literaturverzeichnis [bibliography] pp. 295-299, Glossar [glossary] pp. 300-306, Index pp. 307-310, English summary pp. 311-315. Kinship and the exchange of gifts are the focus of this work. Hierarchical
internal organisation of the sub-caste, lineage system and segmentation,
village community and family structures are discussed in the first part
of the book. The authoress describes in which way policies are formulated
in this context. There are excessive rules regarding the exchange of gifts
combined with a meticulous perception of egality and a strict hierarchical
order. The second part mainly focuses on extra-local kinship patterns
as well as on communication among groups related through marriage. The
authoress also deals with generally accepted structures with no automatic
correlation to the common practices of the people concerned, their conception
of life, its quality and identity. She also describes attitudes and proceedings
in the female sector and the immense importance of local deities in everyday
life, who manifest themselves through media and shamans. 125 Shastric traditions in Indian arts / edited by Anna Libera Dallapiccola; in collaboration with Christine Walter-Mendy; Stephanie Zingel-Avé Lallemant. - 1989. ISBN 3-515-05565-7 1. Texts. - XVII, 491 p. 2. References and documentation. - VII, 135 p., CIV plates These volumes are the output of the international conference on "The Shastric traditions in the Indian arts" held at Heidelberg from July 14th to 17th, 1986. The aim of the conference was to open the discussion on the relationship between theory and practice in the Indian arts, between the written treatises and the actual works of art. The disciplines reviewed here are : iconography, architecture, town planning, literature, ritual, performing arts, old traditions and modern developments. The wide range of subjects discussed and the thought provoking comments of the scholars open new perspectives on a hitherto much spoken of and yet neglected aspect of Indian culture. The value of the book is enhanced by the rich documentation material in the second volume of this work.

ISBN 3-515-05339-5 Bibliography pp. 175-191, author index pp. 192-193, subject index pp. 194 to 107. In recent years, there have been significant developments effecting the
international economy and the position of many Third World countries.
The 1980's were characterized by massive debt problems and deepening poverty
in many poor nations with the result that there is a growing sense of
pessimism and despair. As one potential way out of this morass, there
has been a steady emphasis on a more "free market" approach and the role
of entrepreneurship has once again come into the limelight. In line with
this development, the present enquiry is an examination of modern Burmese
economic history through the perspective of entrepreneurial theory. 127 Reduplizierte Verbstämme im Tamil [Reduplicated verb stems in Tamil] / von [by] Thomas Malten. - 1989. IX, 283 p. ISBN 3-515-05378-6 Literaturverzeichnis [bibliography] pp. 263-283, English summary pp. 261-262. This volume aims at explaining the phenomenon of reduplication of verbs
in Tamil in its major features and then describing the word type of reduplicated
verbstems in its entirety, in form, content and function. The description
of these forms, to which many parallels in all Dravidian but also in the
Indo-Aryan languages can be pointed out and of which there are as many
as 200 in Modern Tamil, is supplemented by a collection of references
from dictionaries and from modern literature, as well as by references
collected from informants. 128 Islamisierung in Pakistan, 1977-84 : Untersuchungen zur Auflösung autochthoner Strukturen [Islamization in Pakistan, 1977-84 : studies on the dissolution of autochtonous structures] / von [by] S. Jamal Malik. - 1989. XVII, 475 p. ISBN 3-51505389-1 66 Tabellen [tables], 16 Diagramme [diagrams], 7 Graphen [graphs], 4 Karten im Text [maps in the text], index pp. 459-467, English summary pp. 468-475. This study deals with the policy of Islamization in Pakistan, especially
since 1977, concentrating on the diverse religious groups. Taking traditional
and non-traditional institutions as an example, the author demonstrates
in which way the national state, as an incarnation of colonial values,
consolidated its power integrating and usurping hitherto untouched parts
of the society. Historical aspects have also been taken into account.
129 Banks, gods and government : institutional and informal credit structure in a remote and tribal Indian district (Kinnaur, Himachal Pradesh); 1960-1985 / by Jogishwar Singh. - 1989. XXXVIII, 410 p. ISBN 3-51505396-4 92 tables, 15 graphs, 13 maps in the text, bibliography pp. 355-390, index I (general terms) pp. 393-395, index II (names of persons) pp. 397-399, index III (names of places) pp. 401-403, index IV (geographical terms) p. 405, appendix : other accounts: unwarranted conclusions pp. 407-410. This is a comprehensive work by an administrator about Kinnaur, an unknown
region in the Western Himalayas, not accessible to foreigners and non-Kinnauri
Indians without a special permit. In the absence of published material,
the author had to rely on hitherto untapped primary sources, field surveys
and personal interviews. Before dealing with the functioning of cooperative
institutions, commercial banks, the government and the local village gods
as credit giving agencies in separate chapters, the author gives a wide-ranging
introduction about Kinnaur, followed by a detailed chapter on its history
with special emphasis on state formation and the pattern of land reforms
in the area. Richly supplemented by statistical tables, regression analyses,
graphs, histograms, plates, maps and appendices, this book can serve as
a standard reference work for those interested in this part of India,
its history, geography, religion, economy, social life or its trade links
across the border with Tibet. It contains information from archives, government
documents and personal experiences which have never been published before.
130 Galle : geomedizinische Analyse einer Küstenstadt auf Sri Lanka (Ceylon) [Galle : geomedical analysis of a coastal town on Sri Lanka (Ceylon) / von [by] Hella Wellmer. - 1989. XXXIV, 557 p. ISBN 3-515-05444-8 References p. X, 87 Abbildungen [graphs] im Text [in the text], 19 Photos am Ende des Bandes [at the end of the volume], English summary pp. 553-557. The author studied geography after having completed medical studies and
worked as a general medical practitioner. Her aim has been to concentrate
on geomedical subjects. She presents a town-geographical analysis as the
starting point of a geomedical study of the town of Galle based on intensive
research and questioning, evaluation of historical sources in Sri Lanka
and the Netherlands, as well as on laboratory experiments. Finally, she
presents a structuring of the town according to "hygiochores", interpreting
this term as connoting areas of equal quality regarding health and social
welfare, in short the "quality of life". 131 Die Geschichte der United National Party in Sri Lanka [The history of the United National Party in Sri Lanka] / von [by] Thomas Prinz. - 1989.

This volume depicts the development of the main Sri Lankan party from its origins during the late 19th century, its foundation at the end of British colonial rule up to the parliamentary elections of 1989. Following the major periods
of government and opposition by UNP, its policies are described as well
as its position within the Ceylonese party system and its organisational
development. The chapters on the periods of UNP government also deal with
the foreign policy pursued. The author then studies the question as to
how intraparty decisions are taken; he further describes the relationship
among the different factions of the party and the interest groups which
exert their influence on the UNP. Furthermore, the voters, the party members
and the leading élite are analysed. On the basis of these results
the author attempts to contribute to the development of the party theory.
He presents and defines the type of a "conservative state élite
party". This work is based on empirical and archive studies undertaken
in 1989. 132 Bhakti und Bhakta : religionsgeschichtliche Untersuchungen zum Heilsbegriff und zur religiösen Umwelt des r Sant Ekanth [Bhakti and Bhakta : studies on the conception of salvation and on the religious environment of r Sant Ekanth] / von [by] Hugh van Skyhawk. - 1990. XVI, 382 p. ISBN 3-515-05618-1 Abkürzungen [abbreviations] pp. XI-XIII, Literaturverzeichnis [bibliography] pp. 330-355, indische Termini [Indian terms] pp. 350-362, Sachregister [index] pp. 363-372, English summary pp. 373-382. Whilst medieval devotional literature in European languages represent
as a rule objects of academic interest, the literature of the medieval
sant-kavi (poetsaints) of Mahrra remain one of the favourite genres
of the Marh literature even today. Up to now, there have been numerous
thematics of Ekanth's writings, but no structural analysis of any of his
major works. The chief aim of the present study is to determine the essential
components of his spiritual teachings by means of a structural analysis
of his most important work, the Ekanth-Bhgavat, and a translation
of its second chapter (adhyya). In addition, the question of the
influence of Sfsm on the Ekanth-Bhgavat is studied using internal
and historical materials. 133 Zielgruppenorientierte Ernährungspolitik für Entwicklungsländer : empirische Sektoranalyse auf der Basis ökonometrischer Nachfrage- und Angebotssysteme am Beispiel Indonesiens [Target group orientated food policy for developing countries : an empirical sector analysis based on the econometric systems of supply and demand taking Indonesia as an example] / von [by] Serge-Arno Klümper. - 1990. XVI, 580 p. ISBN 3-515-05620-3 70 Abbildungen [tables], 33 Grafiken im Text [graphs in the text], Anhänge zu Kapitel 2 bis 9 [Appendices to chapters 2 to 9] pp.468-573, Literaturverzeichnis [bibliography] pp. 439 to 465, English summary pp. 575-580. Third World decision makers in economics as well as the supporting international and national organisations of financial and technical co-operation more and more realise that food security does not automatically come along en passant with the general economic growth and is often jeopardised in the wake of measures for structural adaptation. Food security must, therefore,
be regarded as an aim of economic policy in its own right. The author,
taking Indonesia as a case study, demonstrates which target oriented planning
measures must be taken in food policy and which analyses and planning
methods will have to be applied. 134 Die frühere Sozialordnung Moolkhos und Turkhos (Chitral) [The former social order of the Moolkhos and Turkhos (Chitral)] / von [by] Peter Eggert. - 1990.

From the table of contents : Reconstruction of the social system of the
former independent (till 1954) princely state of Chitral (North Pakistan)
- basis of the system : firstly, kinship groupings, and secondly, a fully
developed state apparatus, i.e. Chitral belonged to the segmentary states
- methodology of reconstruction : 1. determination of the former kinship
groupings and description of their internal structure; 2. reconstruction
of the social strata of the population; 3. collection of statistical data
on the individual population groups (living places, present property rights,
names, titles, names of eventual landlords, farmer services rendered,
and taxes); 4. description of the state apparatus (structure, administration
of Moolkho and Turkho, system of taxation) - main results : 1. more clans
than expected; 2. exact data on the size of these clans and their land
holdings; 3. existence of population groups not organised according to
descent; 4. existence of an artificial kinship, which, from a certain
point of time onwards, was almost used for political reasons, only; 5.
exact data on size, distribution and property among the different strata
of the populace; 6. distinct social dynamics within the system; 7. multi-central
organisation of state : joint rule of several hierarchically equal rulers

The Mewahang Rai of the Arun Valley belong to the populace of the Nepalese
hilly regions, speaking a Tibeto-Burmese language. They present an example
of a tribal culture which has maintained a marked ethnic self-confidence
in spite of manifold changes triggered off by increasing cultural contacts
and the process of state formation. The present study describes the foundations
of this concept of themselves : on the one hand, there are kinship organisation
and a categorisation of the different group formations; on the other hand,
we come across their narrative depiction of their origin and their ancestors'
deeds, as laid down in mythology. A combined view of these two spheres
in their totality - thus is the basic theory of this study - allows a
genuine understanding of the constitution of "ethnic identity". 137 Political transition in South Asia : regional cooperation, ethnic conflict, political participation / ed. by Dagmar Bernstorff; Dieter Braun. - 1991.

ISBN 3-515-05932-6 34 Photos und Zeichnungen im Text [photographs and drawings in the text], English synopsis p. 243-245, Figurenverzeichnis [list of figures] pp. 246-247, Tafelverzeichnis [list of photographs] pp. 248-250, Synopsisen [synopses] p. 251, Literaturverzeichnis [bibliography] pp. 252-272, Orts-, Namen- und Sachregister [index of places, names and subject matters] pp. 273-298, 48 Tafeln [plates], 7 Karten [maps]. The aim of the present study is to describe and examine the general spatial
phenomena of building structures. The author took as a starting point
a hitherto little known house form with four pillars and with a central
opening in the roof to let in light and to let out smoke, going back to
Iranian and Indian traditions prevalent among some of the tribal groups
in the North Indian mountain regions (Hindukush). The main results of
this study concentrate on the dwellings, the cult and congregation buildings
in the area under survey which have, for the first time, been described
and analysed within a synoptic depiction. Secondly, the reconstruction
of their structural/symbolic principles always shows a four-pillar house
with the exceptional position of the spatial centre and its background.

ISBN 3-515-05794-3 Nijjuttis are metrical memory-aids in Prkrit for the monastic teacher
of the ancient (8th cent. B.C.) and still living religion of the Jains.
They contain the topics to be treated in class and are, therefore, of
considerable interest for the intellectual history of India and the development
of middle Indo-Aryan languages. Yet, in this field little has been done
since Leumann's epoch-marking beginnings in the late 19th century. In
1974, Mette edited, translated and commented upon one third of the Oha-Nijjuttis,
i.e. the part dealing with the monk's daily almsround. In order to link
up with this fresh start, it seemed fitting to make arrangements for a
complete edition, also of the related Pia-Nijjuttis with a list of all
quarter stanzas. This list, to which some parallels from other Prkrit
works have been added, is meant as a help for a future critical edition
of all Nijjutis and Bhyas. 143 Veda-Lakaa : Vedic ancillary literature : a descriptive bibliography / compiled by K. Parameswara Aithal. - 1991. II, 725 p. ISBN 3-51505795-1 Pandit Aithal has to his credit not only that he has reminded us of the
multifaceted importance of the Veda-Lakaa texts. He has done much more,
viz. given us an excellent tool for research which proves to be a most
reliable source of information on the available manuscripts, the existing
editions and the published literature on them, and it is a tool which
designedly and most efficiently paves the way for what may well lead to
something like the renaissance in studies in this branch of Sanskrit literature.
The group of ancillary Vedic texts, in South India referred to by the
term Veda-Lakaa, was given the attention due to it both by scholars in
India and the West until the first half of our century. But since then
they have been virtually forgotten. 144 Die Sprachenpolitik der Muslim-League-Regierung und die Entstehung der Bengali-Sprachbewegung in Ostbengalen, 1947-1956 / von Satya N[arayan] Bhowmik. - 1993. XII, 408 p. ISBN 3-515-06383-8 In this work, the author discusses the language conflict in Pakistan
from 1947 to 1956, which had been of great importance for the search for
identity. This search for identity took, in the main part, place via the
language because the government tried to impose an official language "from
above". This historical treatise extensively and precisely describes the
political discussion along with its socio-economic implications. The author
clearly indicates in which way language can be used and misused as a political
