Book excerpt: Essays by leading academics, policymakers, and industrialists examine India's economic success in the late 1990s. India's economy over the last decade looks in many ways like a success story; after a major economic crisis in 1991, followed by bold reform measures, the economy has experienced a rapid economic growth rate, more foreign investment, and a boom in the information technology sector. Yet many in the country still suffer from crushing poverty, and social and political unrest remains a problem. These essays by leading academics, policymakers, and industrialists -- including one by Amartya Sen, the 1998 winner of the Nobel Prize in economics for his work on poverty and inequality -- examine the facts of India's recent economic successes and their social and cultural context. India's rate of economic growth after the 1991 reforms were instituted reached a remarkable 7 percent for three consecutive years, from 1994 to 1997. Several contributors to India's Emerging Economy ask what this means for the nation as a whole. In his essay "Democracy and Secularism in India," Amartya Sen argues that economic progress is not the only way to measure a nation's performance. Other essays examine the actual effect India's economic growth has had on reducing poverty and recommend policies to empower the poor. Essays also address such issues as globalization and the vulnerabilities and opportunities it creates, India's experience with monetary and fiscal reform, the rapid growth of the information technology sector (including a case study of India's software industry), and India's grassroots economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economists talk of prices rising or falling in response to excess of demand or supply in the market, but are at a loss to explain who sets the price in a market of many players where no one has the power to dictate price. They then have to invent the 'invisible hand' of a mythical god called 'price mechanism'to create the image of the market operating as a self-regulating system. While unregulated free trade amounts to groping in the dark, the situation is far worse when the prices and other rules of the market are set by the state on behalf of large corporations-as has happened in globalizing India in the name of economic development. Large corporations, aided and abetted by the land acquisition policies of the central and state governments, are indulging in massive land-grabbing. We witness the perversity of development in the destruction of livelihoods and displacement of the poor in the name of industrialization, in the construction of big dams for power generation and irrigation, in the corporatization of agriculture despite farmers' suicides, and in the modernization and beautification of our cities by the demolition of slums. One of India's foremost theoretical economists, Amit Bhaduri, contends that we have abjectly surrendered to the conventional wisdom of our time-that there is no alternative to corporations and the type of globalization that they lead. The result, he warns, will not be a freer market and more freedom, but a disastrous and deepening chasm between the India of privilege and the India of crushing poverty. The Face You were Afraid to See is a collection of compellingly argued essays that draws attention to the other India that we turn away from. Fiercely critical of financial liberalization, corporate-led globalization and neoliberalism that celebrate unregulated free trade, the essays together make for a forceful critique of India’s economic policies.

Download or read book India Working written by Barbara Harriss-White and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By drawing on her extensive fieldwork in India and on the adjacent theoretical literature, Barbara Harriss-White describes the working of the Indian economy through its most important social structures of accumulation. Successive chapters explore a range of topics including labour, capital, the state, gender, religious plurality, caste and space. Despite the complexity of the subject, the book is vivid and compelling. The author's intimate knowledge of the country enables the reader to experience the Indian local scene and to engage with the precariousness of daily life. Her conclusion challenges the prevailing notion that liberalisation releases the economy from political interference and leads to a postscript on the economic base for fascism in India. This is an intelligent book, first published in 2002, by a distinguished scholar, for students of economics, as well as for those studying the region.

Download or read book Futilitarianism written by S. Subramanian and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2020-04-13 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is an overview of, and commentary on, aspects of contemporary India and its socio-economic policies. It focuses on India’s economy and society in recent years, and in the process it addresses structural issues of development such as those of population, poverty, inequality, health, and social exclusion. It reviews the adequacy and appropriateness of governmental response to these problems, in terms of public policy, narrowly conceived, and philosophical orientation, more broadly conceived. The concern is not only with economic achievement and human development but also with the framework of civic rights, personal liberty, and institutional autonomy within which the exercise of governance is perceived to be carried out. The essays in this volume were originally written with the general-reader-as-involved-citizen very much in mind as the intended target. However, it should also be of interest to scholars of economics, political science, development studies, and South Asian studies.

Download or read book What s Up What s Down written by Gurdip Singh and published by 7Clicks. This book was released on with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A timely new anthology, a compilation of essays by intellectuals and businessmen, mostly from Singapore, reviews India's society and economy ahead of the 16th Lok Sabha elections. As its economy flounders and society comes under severe strain for heinous crimes against women, India suddenly find itself under the magnifying glass of academia. There are some important books published this year on the Indian economy. First, we had Jagdish Bhagwati and Arvind Panagariya coming out with their thesis in "Why Growth Matters: How economic growth in India reduced poverty and the lessons for other developing countries." This was followed by Princeton's release of Jean Dreze and Amartya Sen's "An Uncertain Glory". Not to be left behind, Harvard has published Sumantra Bose's "Transforming India". Now we have the icing on the cake, an anthology of essays by academics, researchers, entrepreneurs, economists, bankers and bureaucrats, on what ails India's society and economy, put together by two Singapore-based journalists, Gurdip Singh and Sameer C. Mohindru. The compendium, titled, "What's Up? What's Down?", stands apart because it argues that society and economy are intertwined and drive or pull each other. For example, a weak economy with large slums is expected to have more incidences of crime against women. Interestingly most contributors in this E-book anthology are based in Singapore and provide a bipartisan bird's eye view on India ahead of the 16th Lok Sabha elections. They aren't blindly critical and instead suggest solutions for India to tackle its social and economic challenges. The book gives voice to the sentiments of the Indian diaspora, which is keen to invest their hard earned money in their country of origin. Karan Singh Thakral, a Singapore-based businessman suggests that India must spruce up the infrastructure to revive its economy. Infrastructure is both needed for economic development and also a business opportunity for the entrepreneurs. The opportunity in the Indian market is immense because it is backed by a large middle-class, a strong spirit of entrepreneurship and a league of extraordinary businessmen, says Piyush Gupta, chief executive officer of DBS Group in Singapore. As economists point out, India, a land of 1.3 billion people is not only a vast consumer base for manufacturers and businesses but also has a large pool of human resources to be tapped for giving a boost to manufacturing output and productivity. Entrepreneurs and researchers are bearish about India's economic outlook in the short-term and suggest ways in which the country can unlock its potential. As Gupta points out, Indian companies and corporations are increasingly scaling up to meet world class standards, and can be the bulwark for higher growth in GDP. Magnus Bocker, Singapore Exchange's chief executive and Professor Rajendra K. Srivastava a Deputy President with Singapore Management University elaborate about their plans for India. Contributors in this anthology are concerned that Parliament, the temple of Indian democracy barely functions as lawmakers display more lung power than brain power. Though politically some might have triumphed in blocking parliamentary proceedings, but for the potential investors this is in bad taste. The idea of an E-book germinated when an Indian brave heart girl, brutally raped in a moving bus in Delhi on December 16, 2012, was flown in to Singapore in a serious conditions. The girl's passing away less than two weeks later was covered by the two journalists who have edited the anthology. "We had extensive interviews with businessmen and researchers to get their two cents on the Indian society and economy and found both a sense of disappointment and optimism all around and decided to analyse this paradox in a book," says Mr Singh, one of the journalists. He says coalition politics isn't an obstacle in India's progress if the rulers are decisive and not afraid in taking unpopular decisions which change the course of India's economy, society and polity. Investors aren't afraid of multi-party coalition governments provided they are result oriented. Implementation of the Mandal Commission report that recommended reservations for the backward classes, liberalizing the Indian economy by abolishing the industrial licensing regim, testing of nuclear bombs to enhance national security and the inking of Indo-U.S. nuclear deal, are all decisions taken by coalition governments that have ruled India in the last 25 years. There are some very interesting observations in the book. Cineplexes and slums are both products of a liberalized and urbanized Indian society economy. Both had a role to play in the rape and death of the brave heart girl. In the pantheon of Hindu Gods, a female is always named first, Siya-Ram, Radhey-Shyam, Gauri-Shankar, Laxmi-Narayan, Uma-Mahesh, Devki-Vasudev, Yashoda- Nand and yet when it comes to respect for the female community, they are being treated with disdain. Ironically, the main accused in the Delhi gang rape case was Ram Singh, named by his parents after Hindu God known for his character, idealism and virtue, Lord Ram, hero of the world renowned epic, Ramayana. A top Singapore cardiologist, Dr V P Nair, suggests that a solution to India's woes lies in going back to its own ancient roots and principles of Vedanta. India lost momentum in the 1960s and 1970s due to a misguided commitment towards socialism, Girija Pande, former chairman of Tata Consultancy Services for Asia Pacific, in one of the essays. In another essay, R Narayanamohan, chairman of the Singapore Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry points out that Indian economy is one of the most heavily taxed in the world and a rejig and lowering of taxes is needed for the country to forge ahead in economic development. In an essay that analyzes India's new food security law, a retired officer of a state-run company, Tejinder Narang, terms it FoodCare and compares it with ObamaCare, the U.S. health care program, and argues that both will prove to be a drain on two of the world's largest economies. The silver lining is that all is not lost. The long term structural opportunities are still there, says Gupta of DBS Bank. A chapter on Amarnath, analyses how one of the world's oldest pilgrimages, with historical references going back more than 2000 years, has become the prime driver of the economy of the Kashmir valley. It argues that regardless of the overall health of the national and global economy, there are thousands of pockets of local economies that are blossoming and many are based on religious tourism, which is an ancient concept. The general consensus that emerges in the anthology s is that entrepreneurs and investors can't afford to ignore the consumption and production driven Indian economy, despite the current political churning and paralysis.
