520			_aIndia celebrated sixty years of Independence on 15 August 2007. There have been several achievements and failures in economic and social development during this period. There remain concerns regarding the agriculture sector, poverty reduction, employment generation, social sector development, reduction in regional disparities and protection of the environment. This volume comprising six section tries to address these issues. The study begins with the theme Revisiting the State: New Forms of Governance. The paper under this theme has tried to bring out what groups are excluded or included in the urban governance of 'negotiated spaces'. Next theme is on Public-private Partnerships in Basic Service Delivery: Impacts on the Poor. In the light of state's withdrawal from various public enterprises, the public partnership has occupied an important position and some of these public-private partnerships are discussed under the theme. India's current impressive economic growth is largely from the service sector and the inequalities in accessing these new employment opportunities are discussed under the theme, Access to Public and Corporate Sector Employment: Rural and Urban Dynamics.
