law, literary studies, political science, religious studies, and sociology to present their own musings on particular SAARC countries. We especially wanted to include countries that often get overlooked at South Asia conferences, such as the Republic of Maldives and the Kingdom of Bhutan, in order to get a better overall perspective on nationalism in the region. With generous financial support from the Crafoord Foundation and logistical assistance from the Swedish South Asian Network (SASNET), the participants in our workshop gathered in Lund for two days of presentations and discussions to see what sorts of similarities and differences would emerge when viewing nationalism from a number of geographical and ethnic vantage points around the Subcontinent. The articles included herein are the result of that gathering.

N2 - Rates of sulphurated sodium borohydride (NaBH2S3) reduction of some ketones (acetone, acetophenones, benzophenones, and fluorenone) in tetrahydrofuran have been measured. Results for the two series (acetophenones and benzophenones) studied fit the Hammett equation with high ρ+ values (+2.531 for acetophenones and +1.982 for benzophenones) thus suggesting that BH2S3- ion is a moderately strong nucleophile. Thermodynamic parameters have been evaluated and a suitable mechanism for these reactions has been proposed.
