<br/><br/> Gujarat’s ‘model of growth’ has been the subject of much debate. While some analysts view Gujarat’s growth as a classic success story of neo-liberal policies, others have questioned its inclusiveness.<br/><br/>This volume provides an objective assessment of Gujarat, a state often considered a role model for others because of its rapid growth rate. It examines the validity of the theory and policy framework underlying the economic reforms in India, and provides an in-depth analysis of the interpretation and implementation of this framework in Gujarat. It also assesses the overall inclusiveness—or lack thereof—of Gujarat’s growth in achieving development goals.<br/><br/>Studying the performance of the Gujarat economy in the national context, as well as in comparison with the economies of other Indian states, eminent scholars analyse the dynamics of growth in the state, its sources, processes, sustainability, and interaction with development objectives.<br/><br/>Based on original research and extensive data, the articles in this balanced work illuminate a much-debated and topical theme and provide an alternate view to the widely perceived success story of Gujarat.
