Writing in 1958, influential political scientist and thinker, Edward Banfield, presented what he saw as the reason for backwardness – communities which cannot work together. In his seminal book, “The Moral Basis of a Backward Society”, he studied the reasons behind the underdevelopment of a village in the southern tip of Italy.

Bad-Blood Drained, Start Mending Relationship Now
Editorial:
The Sikkim University-State Government cold war has broken out in the open. Finally. After a series of snubs, snide asides and obvious indifference which played out for more than three years, the situation has collapsed to head-on blame trading. This is not necessarily as bad a thing as the viciousness of the latest exchange makes it out to be. The silver lining behind the thick pall of bad blood is that the wrangle is public. Now that the bad blood has been let out, it will require overt gestures from both sides to patch the wound and see if the relationship can be mended.
