This book focuses on the economic challenges India has been facing since its independence in 1947. It traces the country’s journey of economic transition and critically analyzes themes such as the political economy of development, agriculture, macroeconomy, industry and labor, money and finance, trade liberalization, gender, welfare, energy, and the environment. The volume also addresses the issues of increasing income inequality, mass unemployment, and environmental degradation and suggests policies for efficient and desirable outcomes in socio-economic development.

This is an important and timely contribution that it will be of interest to scholars and researchers in economics, development studies, political economy, management studies, public policy, and political studies. It will also be useful to policymakers.
