Together, the two countries account for one-fifth of the global economy and are projected to represent a full third of the world's income by 2025. Yet, many of the views regarding China and India's market reforms and high growth have been tendentious, exaggerated, or oversimplified. Awakening Giants, Feet of Clay scrutinizes the phenomenal rise of both nations, and demolishes the myths that have accumulated around the economic achievements of these two giants in the last quarter century. Exploring the challenges that both countries must overcome to become true leaders in the international economy, Pranab Bardhan looks beyond short-run macroeconomic issues to examine and compare China and India's major policy changes, political and economic structures, and current general performance. Bardhan investigates the two countries' economic reforms, each nation's pattern and composition of growth, and the problems afflicting their agricultural, industrial, infrastructural, and financial sectors. He considers how these factors affect China and India's poverty, inequality, and environment, how political factors shape each country's pattern of burgeoning capitalism, and how significant poverty reduction in both countries is mainly due to domestic factors--not global integration, as most would believe. He shows how authoritarianism has distorted Chinese development while democratic governance in India has been marred by severe accountability failures. Full of valuable insights, Awakening Giants, Feet of Clay provides a nuanced picture of China and India's complex political economy at a time of startling global reconfiguration and change. 606 $aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Development / Economic Development$2bisacsh 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Policy / Economic Policy$2bisacsh 606 $aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Economics / Comparative$2bisacsh 607 $aChina$xEconomic policy$y2000- 607 $aIndia$xEconomic policy$y1991- 607 $aChina$xEconomic conditions$y2000- 607 $aIndia$xEconomic conditions$y1991- 607 $aChina$xSocial conditions$y2000- 607 $aIndia$xSocial conditions$y20th century 607 $aChina$xEconomic conditions 607 $aIndia$xEconomic conditions 615 7$aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Development / Economic Development 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Policy / Economic Policy 615 7$aBUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Economics / Comparative 676 $a338.951 700 $aBardhan$b Pranab K$0120966 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963153203321 996 $aAwakening giants, feet of clay$91131562 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01112nam a2200277 i 4500 001 991004381423207536 005 20250515162236.0 008 250515s1982 it er 001 0 ita d 040 $aBibl.
