Description
This book provides a review of Indian planning in the light of development theory and the debates on planning carried out in other countries. It deals with the experience of development planning as practised in India over the last thirty-five years. It explains the analytical considerations which went into the formation of India's development strategy, initially articulated by Nehru and Mahalanobis, and the modifications which were subsequently introduced in the light of experience. It deals with the logical structure of various Five Year Plans and with issues of plan implementation. Current debates on economic policy receive extensive treatment. This is a book for postgraduate and senior undergraduate courses in development, economics, planning, sociology, political science and courses on India.
