Sindhu Radhakrishna co-authored Professor and Head, Animal Behaviour and Cognition Programme What does human-animal studies have to offer ethology? https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10211-020-00349-4 Acta Ethologica, July 2020 Although animals are the primary focus of studies in human-animal studies (HAS), very few ethologists engage with this discipline. Insights from HAS can help provide a deeper and richer understanding of animal behaviour and humananimal interactions. HAS perspectives regarding animal and human spaces, the sociozoological scale theory, and the concepts of animal agency and intersubjectivity in human-animal interactions help demystify puzzling aspects of human-wildlife conflict scenarios and impel a re-examination of ethological dictums and methodologies. We argue that inputs from human-animal studies will aid in the growth of ethology. |

Tejal Kanitkar co-authored Associate Professor, Energy, Environment and Climate Change Programme Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the Indian economy: A critical analysis. http://dx.doi.org/10.22201/fe.01851667p.2021.315.76845 Investigation Economica, July 2020 This paper is an analysis of the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in India. The economic crisis after March 2020 affected all the sectors of the Indian economy and led to a loss of employment to the tune of at least 15 million. Using an Input-Output (I-O) framework, we create four scenarios of losses to the Indian economy. We estimate that India’s GDP growth rate in 2020-2021 may range from –4.3% to –15%. |

Anindya Sinha, Sayan Banerjee co-authored Anindya Sinha is Professor; Sayan Banerjee is PhD Scholar, Animal Behaviour and Cognition Programme ‘The devil is in the detail’: Peer-review of the wildlife conservation plan by the Wildlife Institute of India for the Etalin hydropower project, Dibang valley. https://zoosprint.zooreach.org/index.php/zp/issue/view/540/showToc Zoo’s Print, May 2020 This report was prepared in response to the Forest Advisory Committee’s (FAC) recommendation to conduct “a multiple seasonal replicate study on biodiversity assessment” of the 3097 MW Etalin Hydro Electric Project (HEP) in Dibang Valley, Arunachal Pradesh. The review has found that the study was conducted in under five five months from February to June 2018 and cannot be considered as a ‘multiple seasonal replicate’ study as it does not represent three seasons in Arunachal Pradesh. |
