Understanding India’s New Political Economy: A Great Transformation?

Edited by Sanjay Ruparelia and Sanjay Reddy

Two of India China Institute’s most esteemed scholars, former ICI Fellow Sanjay Ruparelia (2008-2010) and longtime ICI Advisor Sanjay Reddy have collaborated with scholars John Harriss and Stuart Corbridge to produce this exciting new volume highlighting the changes occurring during India’s current political environment.

Focusing on the last three decades, this compilation of essays fills in a gap in existing literature by looking at three large-scale political transformations; the advent of liberal economic reform, the ascendance of Hindu cultural nationalism, and the empowerment of historically subordinate classes through popular democratic mobilizations.

Conceived in part during a conference held by ICI, this volume epitomizes the type of academic connections across discipline and national borders that ICI makes it its mission to promote.
