Rahul Mukherji

Globalization and Deregulation

Ideas, Interests, and Institutional Change in India

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book makes a contribution to the literature on economic change by exploring the institutional transition from state-led import substitution to deregulation and globalization in the world's most populous democracy-India. It proposes a largely internally driven 'tipping-point' model of economic change, which is in sharp contrast to the 'punctuated equilibrium' model of sudden exogenous shocks that drive transformations. It is a contribution both to India's political and economic history and to systematic ways of thinking about economic change.
