this post exemplifies your thinking. you atleast ought to back this up with some facts or practical applications. do you see something specific, yet significant and important happening in india that lacks standards? Can you propose what can you do to change it? and can you draw parallels from it and see if it can be applied elsewhere?

this form of ranting is vanity!!

Oh, no! Just when I was entertaining thoughts of going abroad, now another 11,000,000 persons will be actively seeking to flay me alive and impale me on an immense satay stick.

My dear fellow, culture is merely value-addition. If I had my way, all people who spoke of preserving “the national culture” would be savagely elemocompunctactulated.* Culture, and technique, are living things, more verb than noun, partaking of the character of even the humblest exponents. The Indian manager who brought Taylorism to India, whoever he(?) was, had to effectively re-invent Taylorism in order to make it “work” there. As for the tangible artifacts like the port container, they were made possible by the incremental contibutions of lakhs** of engineers around the world.

Many of the important business and industrial practices of international commerce and capital flows may well have reached their present state of development in the United States, but their very importation to other nations, let alone their prior development, are accomplishments–and sins–belonging to other societies.

*elemocompunctactulation: ritual punishment for ancient Uighur Nestorian heretics, c.7th cent. CE. It involved stripping the convicted miscreant naked, coating him with Yak snot, dusting him with desicated onion flakes, and scrubbing him clean with twenty ill-tempered Amur tigers. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, “elemocompunctactulation” was first used by the English explorer Mountstuart Elphinstone in his celebrated monograph, An Amidiversion on the Varieties of Ungulate Snots, Middlesex, 1821.
