Starkey was a PhD and a Fellow of Cambridge, where he spent teaching and researching for 8 years, and followed it by rubbing shoulders with economists and social scientists at London School of Economics for the remainder of 30 years as an academic. As far as I know, he still supervises PhD's. I rem...

We really ought to be able to talk about modern Britain on this thread without bringing in colonialism and whether some chap is a bootlicker or such like. We owe it to ourselves and to everybody else on the forum. Eklavya ji, I can understand your unease at the criticism of the British (since you h...

No comments on as to what Katherine's statements imply for the British education system - whether it supports to some degree or not what was implied by "in shambles"? No comments on the grade inflation issue? No comments on the so-called inequality debate? No comments on the "discipl...

ekalavya ji, I should have learned to expect by this time that you will select "facts" to try to disprove anything that seems to show any aspect of British life in negative light. Since I have never commented on any aspect of British life anywhere on this forum prior to this exchange, you...

eklavya

ekalavya ji, your reply to my "original" post, started the mocking game. You did not confine yourself to mere statement of facts in response to my post. My comment (reproduced verbatim below) was [intended to be] funny, but it did not attack you personally in any way whatsoever, unless yo...

Maldives, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh and other South Asian countries continues to show their allegiance to China (even Nepal and Bhutan are now following).

Yes of course, top uni's - top unis! What a great job the Brit masters have done. They can produce hagiographers long after they are gone from their ex-colonies willing to do their bit in brushing up and defending their ex-master's image.. It seems to me that you found the red part as a personal in...

the domestic UK grading doesn't help judge their international competitiveness. hi devesh, I posted the UK league table in response to matrimc's remark about the standing of the other UK universities. Was providing some information about the domestic scene in the UK, not providing an international ...

Bji and Ekalavya ji, I do confess that I had only Oxbridge and ICL when I said "top notch". No idea about the rest in UK. Just an aside. LSE, Warwick, Bristol and Edinburgh also have a great reputation. Informal top group: Cambridge, Oxford, Imperial, UCL, LSE, King's, Warwick, Edinburgh,...

The British educational system is in shambles. There are features of the US system that allows it to be immensely flexible and do ultimately what it was originally designed for - the 19th century copying of the German liberal university education model geared towards producing initiators and entrep...

No, there is onlee 1 I had in mind. It was not in order of magnitude. In order of people I mostly collaborate/interact with. It was an error on my part, and you can abuse whatever you wish about my academic credentials or not. Still clutching at straws. All 2.5 of them .... how shameful. But why no...

^^^^^ There are some organisations (and the EIU is credible) that compile these league tables of "global education ranking". As per the latest league table from the EIU, among the "english speaking countries", Hong Kong is 3rd, Singapore is 5th, the UK is 6th, New Zealand is 8th,...

Since you are completely dishonest, and as I said, left your character by the roadside - you have now only foulmouthing left in your defence of your Raam-paduka masters. That is where hagiography ultimately leads to. No, you are a bare-faced liar and a deeply insecure one. When your % added up to 1...

devesh, you had better wait for an answer from the character-certificate-dene-or-lene-wallah who presumably believes Ramanujam went to Cambridge in 1914 to "lick the boots of masters".

I guess if you have a problem with an Indian avoiding taking up employment in the public sector [which means you serve the crown] within UK out of ideological or heritage considerations, and you think it is worthy to mock him for respecting his ancestor's wish/will about not serving the British cro...

How does Modi even get past Sushma Swaraj, Arun Jaitley, etc. in his own party, let alone convince NDA allies to serve in a government lead by himself?

^^No Indians in Briturd academia, Bji? Just curious only. Hari, if we're talking about one of the best known mathematics departments in the UK, here is the staff list: http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/people/academic.html https://www.dpmms.cam.ac.uk/people/utos2.html https://www.dpmms.cam.ac.uk/people/nu...

Specifically avoided employment head hunting at the ebginning of academic career to avoid virtually acknowledging the servitude of the crown. It would have been an insult to my ancestors. How sad.

Japan election: LDP's Shinzo Abe vows tough China line

He also wants to deepen ties with India and Australia.

CPC and PLA policy of provoking territorial disputes with neighbouring states to generate nationalist support is back-firing badly.

Oh btw, make sure you give your white masters an answer to this probe. You know when Bharat buy most of your weapons from them. India will have to keep account on how it is using them. I know its hard to get rid of that colonial mentality and think of them as your MASTER. You are just jealous and f...

Not as good and much as the British. They raped your country for how long ? Your former masters ? Suck your country dry did they ? Actually the Japanese treated the Chinese as sub-humans.
