“…Our data include a pre-liberalisation period (1980s) and a post-liberalisation period (1990s and 2000s), which makes it possible to test for income convergence in the long run, and to capture the effect of reforms (macro and structural reforms in the 1990s for all states in India and implementation of the LEP in the 2000s for the states in the NER) through structural breaks in our income convergence tests (see, Chatterji and Choudhury 2013). Additionally, long time-series increases the statistical power of the tests employed in this paper to account for structural breaks, making the results more robust and reliable (Choudhury and Hawes 2014 their interface Glückler 2003, 2011;Pandey and Gupta 2016).…”

The Ethical Dimension in Political Market Orientation: A Framework for Evaluating the Impact of India’s Look East Policy on Regional Income Convergence

In this paper, we employ what we term as 'the ethical dimension in political market orientation (PMO)' framework to underline how an integration of information from relevant stakeholder groups can inform the formulation of market-oriented, yet ethical policies. Against the backdrop of India's Look East Policy (LEP), we undertake a critical analysis of historic economic data from 1980 to 2014 in the states of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura, often termed as the Seven Sisters because of their interdependence. Our analysis of the data, using time-series methods, reveals that policy changes ensuing from the economic reforms of 1990s and the initiation of the LEP in 1991 have resulted in regional income convergence in North-Eastern India. A key contribution of our work emanates from the fact that we determine two structural breaks endogenously from long time-series data, thereby identifying three distinct policy regimes, rather than specifying exogenous breaks based on historic and theoretical conjectures. Overall, our work offers both conceptual insights into processes that enable ethical and inclusive policy making, as well as empirical evidence emerging from stochastic convergence of incomes per capita for the Seven Sister states in the North-Eastern region in India, to illustrate how regional economic inequality can be reduced through targeted market-oriented policies.

“…This theory has been widely applied to identify key stakeholders affecting the implementation and development of ICT projects, particularly in e-government, such as the research of Axelsson et al (2013), Pandey and Gupta (2017), and Sæbø et al (2011). All these studies attempt to find out who involve and how their salience is in implementing e-projects.…”

Purpose This paper aims to examine the role of stakeholders and their relationships in the sustainability of telecentres in Vietnam through the lens of stakeholder theory. Design/methodology/approach This study methodologically adopted a qualitative case study to identify stakeholders that have been involved in telecentres in Vietnam. It then categorizes those stakeholders’ salience through the lens of stakeholder identification and salience theory. Secondary data and interviews were used as data sources for the present paper. Findings The authors identify six main stakeholders that have been involved in telecentres, including the government, entrepreneurs, international donors, telecommunications providers, civil society organisations and individual community members/users. Among these stakeholders, the government, entrepreneurs and users belong to definitive stakeholders, which have the greatest impact on the sustainability of telecentres in comparison to other groups of stakeholders (e.g. dominant, dependent and dormant stakeholders). Moreover, the authors propose a model to identify the relationships of stakeholders towards the sustainability of telecentres. In particular, the authors indicate that each group of stakeholders has its own role in contributing to sustainable telecentres and they also influence others in either direct or indirect ways. Originality/value This study provides an additional approach for managers to make judgments in prioritizing the interests of some of their stakeholders while still maintaining a level of satisfaction among other stakeholders. For example, stakeholders that should be of the highest concern to the sustainability of telecentres are the government, entrepreneurs and users, while civil society organisations can be maintained in lower priority to other stakeholders. In addition, we propose the model of interactions and relationships of stakeholders, which can be seen as a starting point for a study on the roles of stakeholders in sustainability not only in telecentres, but also in other fields, such as digital transformation, cyber security and e-government.

“…Stakeholders are able to generate more stable decision which integrates longterm and short-term strategy perspectives (Bottenberg et al, 2016). In several cases, higher government intervention is very important to give important meaning to executive institutions and avoid other dominant stakeholders with potential to slow down a project (Pandey & Gupta, 2016). Every process of stakeholder involvement must be evaluated through simple assessment methodology and in a wider context stakeholders' involvement activities must be assessed (Tomkiv et al, 2017).…”
