As I look back at about 45 years of my research journey, I see three somewhat overlapping phases showing that my research has co-evolved with the way I have related to my milieu. The fi rst 15 years witnessed my struggle to outgrow the alien framework by conducting research that, I thought, addressed the most salient socio-cultural issues in the Indian context with the methods that seemed to be the most appropriate. For the next 15 years, I tried to claim a legitimate space for my research on the international landscape. My encounters there-enriching and yet frustrating-led me to realise that I can at best be an Indian cultural psychologist. In the third phase, therefore, I returned to focus on my ongoing interest in organisational behaviour that I believe is deeply embedded in the Indian societal culture inheriting psycho-philosophical thoughts from the ancient time. Hence, I have been exploring, through multi-authored, multi-centred and multi-methods research, how the ancient Indian wisdom has fi ltered through contemporary experiences to create an inclusive Indian mindset that manifests in social and organisational behaviour.This is a narrative of how certain persons, events and ideas impacted my research in the last 45 years. I did not start my research with any grand plan nor did I set any high destination to keep calling me. I focused on what I sensed as the most compelling social issues at a particular point in time, examined them with the methods that seemed to be the most appropriate and continued doing so till my research compelled me to move on to a more inclusive framework for a better understanding of the Indian social reality.

“…However, all along, his objective was to learn about DP so that it could be reduced, because he still operated from the Western psychological perspective, and failed to see the positive aspects of DP in providing emotional support, or in collective decision making and nurturing style of leadership. DP was also identifi ed by other researchers (Chattopadhyaya, 1975;Pareek, 1968) as a key Indian construct.…”

The epistemology of Indian Psychology (IP) is akin to that of Indian Philosophy or in general theIndian world view of knowledge, truth and belief about making sense of the self and the world. In this article, the epistemological and ontological foundations of IP are derived from a verse from the Ishopanishad and corroborated by verses from the Bhagavad-Gita. In doing so, epistemological questions like what is knowledge in IP or what knowledge (or theories) should IP develop and how (the methodology) are answered. Similarly, ontological questions like what is the being that is the focus of IP research or are biomechanical or spiritual-social-biological beings of interest to IP are addressed. The simplicity and clarity of this derivation fulfi ls the twin research criteria of parsimony and aesthetics. The role of epistemology and ontology in constructing cultural meaning for theory, method and practice of IP is discussed.

“…Economic development is according to Pareek (1968), a function of high need for achievement which is often linked to individualism and competition. We can conclude that economic development is a result of high productivity too, as well as high education among people in a society.…”

If we are to choose between two distinct statements, that the interest of the group prevails over the interest of the individual for the majority of people and that a minority of people in our world live in societies in which the interests of the individual prevail over the interests of the group, we can conclude, as Hofstede did, that there are two categories in which nations can fit: individualists and collectivists. The purpose of our study is to investigate the impact of this cultural dimension on the international trade of the European countries. Panel regression model with country fixed effects has been applied to the 21 years' data . Based on prior studies conducted by Inglehart, the analysis of the World Values Survey, the cross-national values databases of Schwartz, Hofstede, Triandis, GLOBE, and Trompenaars, we proxied the individualism with three variables, i.e labor productivity index, higher education rate, and urban population growth rate. The findings of previous studies suggest that individualism has significant positive relationship with the imports and exports of Eastern European Countries, notably, Poland, Lithuania and Romania. Concurs with previous studies, our results show there is a significant positive relationship between individualism and international trade (both imports and exports).
