India's new economic policy : a critical analysis

edited by Waquar Ahmed, Amitabh Kundu, and Richard Peet

Conventional interpretations of the New Economic Policy introduced in India in 1991 see this program of economic liberalization as transforming the Indian economy and leading to a substantial increase in the rate of India's economic growth. But in a country like India, growth is not enough. Who benefits from the new growth regime, and can it significantly improve the conditions of livelihood for India's 800 million people with incomes below 2.00 a day? This edited volume looks at international policy regimes and their national adoption under strategic conditions of economic crisis and coercion
