Economics with a Human Face: Envisioning a Better India Volume One - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book offers distinctly original and practical solutions to some major socio-economic problems confronting India today. In the first chapter, the author highlights the traditional fault lines in the conventional concept of the poverty line and also presents an alternative to it. What follows in the next chapter is his massive sledgehammer of a strategy, made of deep socio-economic insight, a real concern for the poor and a sense of socio-economic justice for all, to smash down the tall walls of the prison of poverty, in which millions of Indian households continue to languish for their ‘unpardonable crime’ of having no practical means to come out of it on their own.

Then he goes on to highlight and address the inability of the State to exploit the massive economic potential embodied in the massive prison population of the country, the global phenomenon of gold accumulation and aggrandizement and the extravagant practices of Hinduism in chapters three, four and five, respectively.

In the last chapter, which has also been reviewed by TOCIC, IIT Kharagpur and revised accordingly, he offers a distinctly ingenious digital framework for serving as a watertight deterrent against speeding and, therefore, significantly reducing the incidence of speeding-driven accidents and, by extension, the massive loss of lives
and economic resources resulting therefrom.
