New oxford companion to economics in India
Basu, Kaushik (ed.)
New oxford companion to economics in India v.2 - New Delhi O.U.P 2012 - vol.2(750p.)
The huge organism called the Indian economy, with its complexities, diversities, and paradoxes, is both fascinating and puzzling. The Oxford Companion to Economics in India (OCEI, 2007), conceived in recognition of the fact that the Indian economy is beyond any single person's comprehension, brought together the opinions of prominent academics, policymakers, corporate chiefs, and politicians, each with expertise on some slender aspect of the economy.
Taking forward the huge popularity of its predecessor, The New Oxford Companion to Economics in India has not only substantially revised and updated many of the original entries but also includes several brand new entries on emerging areas that economists are grappling with. The New OCEI focuses on India's role as a global player in the highly volatile financial scenario. It also presents critical ideas on making the fruits of development accessible to the common man, for instance, through interventions on financial inclusion, food security, and healthcare.
In the last five years, much has changed both in India and the world economy-the great global recession, arguably the most traumatic global downturn since the Great Depression of the 1930s; the sub-prime crisis, bringing to the fore concerns about financial markets and how to regulate them; and the revival of G-20, in which India has found itself taking an active role. The New OCEI showcases and contextualizes these events and the accompanying policy changes both in the original as well as new entries.
