Download or read book Economic Transformation of a Developing Economy written by Lakhwinder Singh and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreword by Prof. Kaushik Basu This book traces the development experience of one of India’s most dynamic and prosperous states, Punjab, which has provided the country with a much-needed degree of food security. The relative regression of Punjab’s economy in the post-economic reforms period and slow current economic growth give cause for concern. The contributions in this book address the question of why the structural transformation of Punjab’s economy has fallen into the middle-income trap. Each investigates the policy constraints influencing the relative stagnation of the economy and suggests appropriate measures for alleviating them. By integrating theoretical constructs and new evidence, the authoritative contributions diagnose the nature of the current problems and offer practical solutions. They cover important issues such as the crisis of agrarian transition, agrarian markets and distributive justice, employment growth and transition to non-agriculture sectors, fiscal policy, external factors in economic transformation, and perspectives on rejuvenating the state’s economy.

Download or read book The Military and Denied Development in the Pakistani Punjab written by Shahrukh Rafi Khan and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the retrogressive agrarian interventions by the Pakistani military in rural Punjab and explores the social resentment and resistance it triggered, potentially undermining the consensus on a security state in Pakistan. Set against the overbearing and socially unjust role of the military in Pakistan’s economy, this book documents a breakdown in the accepted function of the military beyond its constitutionally mandated role of defence. Accompanying earlier work on military involvement in industry, commerce, finance and real estate, the authors’ research contributes to a wider understanding of military intervention, revealing its hand in various sectors of the economy and, consequently, its gains in power and economic autonomy.
Download or read book Rural Development in Punjab written by Autar S. Dhesi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2020-11-29 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many years, agricultural development in Punjab symbolised one of the most successful experiments in rural development. However, this success story seems to be going astray. The crux of the problem, this volume suggests, is that externally driven modernization to meet national food needs pushed Punjab into highly specialized production of wheat and rice, resulting in over-utilisation of natural resources with adverse environmental consequences that jeopardizing the long-term viability and sustainability of the agrarian economy. Stagnating productivity, reduced farm size, falling household incomes, depleting groundwater resources, are only a few of the problems that characterise Punjab’s agriculture today. The book establishes clearly that rural development implies more than transformation of traditional agriculture. Apart from ensuring efficient use of limited resources to sustain agricultural production, rural policy should encompass promotion of non-farm activities, investments in social and economic structure and civic amenities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wealth and Welfare of the Punjab: Being Some Studies in Punjab Rural Economics by Hubert Calvert is a fascinating look into the lives and welfare of the people in the Punjab Province while under British colonization. Calvert begins the book by expressing the complaints he worries the book will generate -- that it is a duplication of efforts, and provides no new information to the reader -- however, Calvert is quick to argue that this book is important if only for its capacity to remind the reader of previously learned information, thereby keeping those issues relevant and in the forefront of the public consciousness. As a result, this book is well suited for readers who have yet to learn about this particular topic as well as those who already posses substantial knowledge on the topic but want to re-engage the material on a new level. The book is quick to circumvent talk of culture or religion and dives directly into the topics of economics and public welfare. Poverty, in particular, is a subject that plagues the people of the Punjab and thus Calvert devotes much of the first half of his book discussing this critical issue. Making a point to emphasize the importance of the reader's understand of the plight of the Punjab people, Calvert does not sugar-coat the struggle of these people, filling the work with gritty descriptions and compelling personal stories. But Calvert isn't only concerned with the problem. While he tries to express the reasons why the economy of Punjab is struggling and people of Punjab are impoverished, he inadvertently suggests remedies to these problems intended to inspire and motivate the reader to action. The Wealth and Welfare of the Punjab: Being Some Studies in Punjab Rural Economics is a great resource for the novice historian and sociologist. This book offers an interesting look at the Punjab society and the incredible impact of British colonization in the area. Striking the delicate balance between education and advocacy, Calvert presents a fundamental issue impacting the Punjab region in India and compels his reader to make a difference.

Download or read book Revitalizing Indian Agriculture and Boosting Farmer Incomes written by Ashok Gulati and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-05 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book provides an evidence-based roadmap for revitalising Indian agriculture while ensuring that the growth process is efficient, inclusive, and sustainable, and results in sustained growth of farmers’ incomes. The book, instead of looking for global best practices and evaluating them to assess the possibility of replicating these domestically, looks inward at the best practices and experiences within Indian states, to answer questions such as -- how the agricultural growth process can be speeded up and made more inclusive, and financially viable; are there any best practices that can be studied and replicated to bring about faster growth in agriculture; does the prior hypothesis that rapid agricultural growth can alleviate poverty faster, reduce malnutrition, and augment farmers’ incomes stand? To answer these questions, the book follows four broad threads -- i) Linkage between agricultural performance, poverty and malnutrition; ii) Analysing the historical growth performance of agricultural sector in selected Indian states; iii) Will higher agricultural GDP necessarily result in higher incomes for farmers; iv) Analysing the current agricultural policy environment to evaluate its efficiency and efficacy, and consolidate all analysis to create a roadmap. These are discussed in 12 chapters, which provide a building block for the concluding chapter that presents a roadmap for revitalising Indian agriculture while ensuring growth in farmers’ incomes.
