“The 2014 Sikkim Human Development Report comprehensively charts the progress made by the Himalayan state of India over the past decade. The data and analyses presented here highlight: the efficacy of state policies in promoting a rapid expansion of both social and economic opportunities; the attention paid to sustainable development and preservation of the rich biodiversity of the region; the impressive advances made in the area of poverty reduction; and the successes achieved in the public provisioning of basic social services (it is the first state in India for instance to achieve total sanitation coverage). The Report underlines the conscious efforts by the political leadership as well as the state bureaucracy to stay connected with people. it also identifies several areas which require greater attention, such as the need to expand livelihoods, manage urbanization, establish a knowledge society, eliminate drug abuse and promote universal health coverage.” -- Back cover.

Within the realm of development economics the book is an attempt to search for a right interrelationship amongst community, market and the State for promoting economic growth and to allow the trickle down effect of growth to reach the grass root level. The development process followed in post State hood period shows that serious attempts were made in Sikkim to create new avenues for livelihood outside agriculture without disturbing the rural fabric of the region. The economy is growing at a satisfactory rate, higher than the all India average growth rate. Per capita income stands higher than the all India average. The so called structural change has apparently become prominent. Does it then imply that Sikkim's economy is moving in Kuznets way? Has the reliance on agriculture been reduced substantially? Institutional reforms in terms of agrarian reform have not been initiated in Sikkim. Can we then conclude that high economic growth can be achieved without bringing institutional changes? Has high economic growth led to a strong and resilient manufacturing sector or services? An honest and an unbiased effort has been made to answer these questions so that Sikkim can become a model state in North East and in India in the days to come.

Border trade between India and China was closed shortly before the IndiaChina war of 1962. The growing tensions between the two countries due to border issues along with India’s stand to give refuge to the Dalai Lama added fuel to fire. There was about a decade and a half long Cold War like situation that existed between the two countries. Relations began to normalise from the mid1970’s. On 16 December 1991, India and China signed a memorandum of understanding on resumption of Border Trade. It was decided initially it would be carried out at one point across the Uttar PradeshTibet border through the Lipulekh pass. This was followed by the reopening of Border Trade in 1992. Two years down the line a second trading point was reopened across Himachal PradeshTibet border through the Shipki La. Later in 2006, Nathu La pass was reopened in Sikkim as per the agreement signed between India and China in 2003. In the decade that has followed, few of the expectations that the people in the Sikkim region had from the opening of this route has materialised. This work deals primarily with the nature of the border trade across the Nathu La, the expectations the people had from it, and humble for suggestions for attaining them.
