“This volume of sixteen erudite essays is a robust response to the fundamental questions thrown up by the pandemic in conjunction with the ongoing technological turbulence and expanding globalisation. We need fresh rethinking on India’s development paradigm not only to meet the material aspirations of its population but also to enrich the spiritual, social and cultural dimensions of their lives.” --Rajiv Kumar, Former Vice Chairman, NITI Aayog and Chancellor, Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics, Pune This book explores the second-order effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on social and economic development in India. The chapters in this volume provide theoretical perspectives and empirical insights from a range of disciplines including history, economics, water management, food and nutrition security, agriculture, rural management, public health, urbanization, gender studies and development of the marginalized.
