Description and Table of Contents
Description
Providing fresh comparative and theoretical insights, this book examines India's development since independence and the politicization of its constituent communities -- minorities, women, and disadvantaged groups. The remarkable economic and technological progress that India has achieved is juxtaposed with the failure of successive regimes to eradicate poverty and illiteracy or to ensure the equitable distribution of resources.
