The present article tries to understand the concept of water security. What is the threshold beyond which water qualifies to be a security issue? Do our security concerns emanate from the conflictual interests emanating from demand and supply, riparian rights of the intra- or inter-state actors or the ownership of the resource? Does the resource study get special attention from the people, national or international actors, when water falls within the security zone? Do efforts to meet the requirements of people and state end up in securitising water as a resource.

[In academic and expert circles the question of international monetary reform has been discussed since the days of the Bretton Woods Conference. Lately it became a matter of concern to many governments when, during 1959-61, the growing demands on the US dollar led to a marked reduction in the gold stocks of the US foreign exchange reserves. Two other considerations have widened the area of interest in the problem of international monetary system. As the year for the revision of the national quotas of the International Monetary Fund drew near, a question began to be asked whether the existing arrangements would provide adequate international liquidity to meet the legitimate requirements of the rapidly * expanding demands of world trade. It was pointed out that the ratio of world foreign exchange reserves to world trade had declined from 80% in 1948 to 50% in 1964. Given pegged exchange rates and a rather slow rate of growth in gold production, it was feared that the present arrangements would not be able to meet the projected demands for international assets. The other snag was that the developing countries are plagued by a steady worsening of the terms of their trade with the developed countries and simultaneously require to import more and more for purposes of rapid development of their national economies. Currently, the discussion on international monetary issues is being carried on from the stand-points of (i) the United States, the major key-currency country, (ii) the affluent West European countries, (iii) the IMF which has an international approach and (iv) the developing countries.f As the report of the group of Experts (including Indians)—which met at the initiative of the UN Conference on Trade & Development—which was discussed in January 1966 by the UNCTAD Board of Trade & Develop-

After World War II, Hungary expropriated private capital and instituted a policy under which the small producers united in co-operatives. Hungary has thus a socialist economy which retains the categories of a market economy, as for instance money, price, credit, profit, etc. Hungary built up her socialist economy according to the Soviet pattern. She introduced annual and five-year planning and an operative management based on compulsory plan indicators. She did so, among other reasons, because the economic mechanism of the Soviet Union had proved a very effective means to rapid industrialisation. We did not go , into a thorough examination as to whether the existing differences in social and, primarily, in economic conditions had set specific demands for economic mangement. We started out—at that time—from the hypothesis that the historically evolved concrete system of planning is the only conceivable system of socialist economy. But the forms of organisation, the methods of planning and the principles of economic regulation which emerged in the socialist countries after World War H reflected the economic mechanism of a given but short period. It has become increasingly obvious that those who regard the practice of one given period as the necessary and unalterable expression of socialist production and of planned economy, forego the possibility of developing a socialist society founded on maximum advantages. Therefore, a scientific discussion of the socialist economic mechanism had to come to the recognition that the economy of a socialist country can be built up in different ways. The argument about the various possible economic models of socialism reaches back to the early 'Fifties. At that time, the centralized control of the Yugolsav industry through direct plan instructions had been abolished, the 'self-management by workers' was introduced, together with economic instruments by the aid of which industrial activity was to be influenced, in order to ensure the implementation of the national economic plan.

The Algiers Conference is a subject which should not be taken in isolation. The episode that was the Algiers Conference—I fear we have to talk about that Conference in that way—was itself the culmination of political forces and developments affecting Asia and Africa in the post-war era. Ŝo far as Asia and Africa are concertfed, it might very well prove to be a water-shed of history. To understand the true significance of the Algiers Conference and what happened at Algiers, I hope you will bear with me if I go rather briefly into the^background of the developments which culminated^ in the-Hdea of holding the Second Afro-Asian Conference. /The victorious European Powers at the end of last war gained a victory of exhaustion. The attrition of over five years of very severe war had left them exhausted and weak and correspondingly it gave courage and .power to the freedom movements in the colonial territories. 'The war had also generated a whole range of liberal and progressive forces all over the world. A ferment had been created among the subject peoples, typified, perhaps most significantly, by the freedom movement of India led by Mahatma Gandhi./ And here, if I might say parenthetically, the noble words and clarion call for freedom uttered during the war by that master-builder of empire, the great Winston Churchill, had also inspired the subject peoples to seek freedom; and paradoxically, the words of the greatest exponent and champion of empire really helped in the break-up of the empire.
