The recovery of Indias immense history owes much to Western and particularly British researches yet attempts to compress it often concentrate on the brief Imperial period This uptodate survey treats the latter as merely the penuitimate chapter in a story that begins in the 3rd millennium BC with the Indus Valley civilization The influx of pastoral nomads first in a long series of invasions from the north established the Vedic religion whose assimilation of popular cults and formalization in Sanskrit writing and social castes supplied the cohesion which subsequent events the Moghul incursions the British Empire the rise of modern India did little to change The enduring distinctiveness of India its often bewildering diversity of unity emerges as a product of geographical simplicity and great historical complexity

It is a measure of the youthfulness of economics as a discipline that two centuries after the appearance of Adam Smiths landmark treatise The Wealth of Nations an economist has posed the question How do economies grow This comprehensive study of economic growth in India is intended as a response to this question As history it surveys the half century from the end of colonial rule to the present as prognosis it focuses on what we may expect in the immediate future Drawing upon diverse strands of theory historical perspective political economy and econometrics the book presents an eclectic and original narrative of the Indian growth experience The main body of the book is divided into four chapters Chapter 1 provides a critical exposition of some prominent theoretical representations of growth and a historical perspective on its drivers The remaining three chapters provide a fresh analysis of three periods respectively 195064 196591 and 1991 onwards Presenting a favorable appraisal of the growth record of early independent India and an account of how the advantage was lost the book argues that it is not just more reforms that stand in the way of sustained doubledigit growth rates The prospects for high longterm growth in India are instead linked with development of agriculture and education particularly schooling Further the author proposes that inclusive growth is not just some optional extra however desirable but intrinsic to the prosperity of the country The possibility of such an outcome he argues is tied more to the states capacity to govern the public institutions once created by it than its command over resources
