Description
These empirically rich and highly analytical papers provide a comprehensive treatment of the nature, achievement, and limitations of Indian development and planning between 1950 and the late 1980s. Focusing on the two great sectors--agriculture and industry--these papers range from a treatment of plan formation and plan implementation, to the role and significance of the public sector, domestic resource allocation, technology and technical change, the dynamics of class formation, and trade, aid, and foreign investment. This volume, which includes papers by Sukhamoy Chakravarty and Krishna Bharadwaj, represents a landmark in the political economy literature on contemporary India.
