India - The Next Decade

The story of a rising India has surprised the world but also captured its imagination. It is said that no other democracy has ever achieved levels of sustained economic growth comparable to India's over the last two decades. Exploring India's growing global importance and its domestic and external challenges, this unique volume examines the complexities of India's political, economic, and social evolution in the coming decade. Combining lively discussions with background essays contributed by a galaxy of prominent individuals from different spheres of life - distinguished scholars, policymakers, economists, corporate leaders, journalists, educationists and film-makers - the book offers compelling insights into the democracy, economy, and society of an emerging power.
