·Between the bomb and the barricades
There are two stories about Iran – the confrontation with the west over Tehran's nuclear ambitions and the rising domestic opposition to President Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad. The puzzle is to work out how the two connect, says Philip Stephens
·Offer the Taliban more than mere money
Offering to buy off insurgents will not be enough, writes Michael Semple, who was expelled from Afghanistan for talking to them. True peace is only possible if they are brought into the political system

The iPad could have been built either like a small Apple Macintosh – open to any outside software – or as a big iPhone, controlled by Apple. Apple went with the latter. Attach a keyboard and it could replace a PC – with new applications, but only as Apple deems worthy, writes Jonathan Zittrain
·Hollywood gets the better of China's sage

The policy interventions of late 2008 and 2009 resulted in a far briefer and shallower recession than most imagined a year ago. The big questions for this year are how quickly to withdraw the monetary and fiscal stimulus and which should be withdrawn first, writes Martin Wolf
·Medicine for Europe's sinking south
Greece has drawn attention to an uncomfortable historical truth: that no currency union has survived without a fiscal and political union, write Nouriel Roubini and Arnab Das
·Focus on ways for banks to fail safely
Dealing with the problem of financial institutions which are too big to fail should be the first priority in Washington, writes Kevin Warsh. Any other solution is second best

·What's new in search: Prospective Search?
The ‘search’ functionality forms the base of most internet operations today.K-praxis has, in previous posts, speculated on the future of search. With the advent of ‘prospective search’ this functionality is now branching off in a different direction. What is the scope and potential of prospective search? How is it different from traditional search methods? What kind of a future does prospective search have? I ...
·Media, Technology and Human Intervention
There has been some interesting discussion around the idea of information technology vs media on some of the vantage points of online discussion networks. How does one understand these discussion threads? Is this just a buzz about the companies that being mentioned (Google and Yahoo)? Or there are some fundamental issues being discussed here that define the use, consumption and monetization of online information. ...
·K-Praxis Launches a Revamped News Analysis Website

·E learning Models
uniformity within e-learning, this article will evaluate the viability of e learning in terms of the responsiveness of the students, the economic feasibility and finally the desirability of such a take-over of the educational field. Besides the old question in a new article: can automated education replace the human guru, this article also looks at the practices of e learning and the delicate issues that they throw up.
·Uniform learning
Heterogeneity and a multiplicity to choose from, marks (at least superficially) the contemporary educational system. A certain uniformity, however, emerges from within this diversity in the form of standardization. Does this standardization aid and abet learning? What are the processes by which it creates a better atmosphere for a learner in terms of the mode and medium of education/instruction? K-Praxis examines e l ...
·Scientific Analysis in Academic Research
In the previous article we saw how automating the collection of data can help in establishing some criteria to demarcate the scientificity of a particular study within the field of academic research. Once the data is made available to the human researcher, what kind of standards does one place to make the study of some value? In the face of the debunked notions of objectivity and verifiability, how can one make the a ...
·The Method of Science in Research
There has always been a controversy as to the 'method' employed within scientific/ academic research.

More importantly, what is the methodology employed by which one can arrive at the conclusions of a proposed study? Academi ...
·Information Management and Academic Research
If academic research is a search for newer knowledges then what is the component of this new knowledge and how does it get formulated? K-Praxis takes a look at the role that data and information play in the creation of knowledge. How does one systematize, categorize, evaluate and understand this data?
·Instruction and Information
It is increasingly felt that top-down instruction may not be the best pedagogical tool for transferring knowledge. With the prolific cyber-culture, there are abundant alternative ways of exchanging information and learning. K-Praxis takes a look at online education and e learning to examine what happens to information/knowledge when its processes of transmission are radically altered.
