ABOUT THE BOOK :-

Globalization and its impact on growth and development of an economy, especially developing economies, has been a subject of debate among the academic and policy circles. The advocates of globalization argued that globalization has enlarged the frontiers of market economy with increased faith in private capital, which opened up opportunities to access international market and technology. It is also expected that technology transfer increases higher productivity and ensures higher growth and standard of living. Contradictorily, skeptics argued that globalization gives rise to new challenges such as growing inequalities, market instability and environmental concerns. With reduced trade and investment barriers after 1990s, India has entered the phase of globalization. Although India has emerged as one of the fastest growing economies of the world in the globalized era, it is beset with a host of socio-economic and development related problems. In this context, this book examines diverse topics of contemporary relevance such as industrial performance, trade liberalization and its impact on employment, capital outflows, remittance and the impact of external shocks on Indian economy in the globalized era. The essays analyze India's recent performances and explore the key economic challenges faced by the economy in the changing international arena. This volume will be helpful for the students of economics and development studies, academics, researchers, policymakers, analysts and general readers.
