Readers will be in good hands.? ?Edmund Phelps, Columbia University, USA, and winner of the 2006 Nobel Prize in Economics ?This is perhaps the best and most scholarly contribution to understanding the Indian Economy and Society. Its rich historical perspective and a profound understanding of how India has evolved into a major economic power set standards of scholarship and analytical rigour that will be hard to surpass". ?Raghav Gaiha, University of Manchester, UK ?Linking of economy and society is increasingly recognised as essential for addressing policy challenges by the current phase of globalisation. As such this study should be valuable not just for those studying India, but also for those interested in global developments.? ?Mukul Asher, National University of Singapore, Singapore ?This book is a tour-de-force review of the fundamental topics on the Indian political economy and society that are relevant for any committed social scientist to be aware of.? ?Sumit K. Majumdar, University of Texas at Dallas, USA ?Over the years, I have benefited from reading the works of Professor Jha, and from teaching from them. I enthusiastically recommend these two volumes.? ?Raaj Kumar Sah, University of Chicago, USA This two-volume work provides an account of how India has been meeting its myriad of economic, political and social challenges and how things are expected to evolve in the future. In this first volume, Jha presents a long view of the performance of the Indian economy and discusses key aspects of India?s population, land and labor. In addition, the Indian Constitution and basic structure of governance are analysed within the context of major economic and political developments in independent India. Raghbendra Jha is Professor of Economics at the Australian National University. He has published extensively in the areas of macroeconomics, public economics and social welfare, with a country focus on India. 606 $aAsia?Economic conditions 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aPopulation 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aAsian Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W45010 606 $aEconomic History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W41000 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 606 $aPopulation Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W38000 606 $aDevelopment Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000 607 $aIndia$xEconomic conditions 607 $aIndia$xSocial conditions 607 $aIndia$xPolitics and government 615 0$aAsia?Economic conditions. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aPopulation. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 14$aAsian Economics. 615 24$aEconomic History. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aPopulation Economics. 615 24$aDevelopment Economics. 676 $a330.954 700 $aJha$b Raghbendra$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0124901 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299361703321 996 $aFacets of India's Economy and Her Society Volume I$92512532 997 $aUNINA
