Hardcover. Zustand: New. Contents Preface. 1. Economic reforms an introduction. 2. Economic liberalisation and globalisation conceptual framework. 3. Economic reforms and the Indian economy. 4. Extent of unemployment and pattern of employment opportunities. 5. Extent of poverty and alleviation measures. 6. Role of government in employment generation and poverty removal. 7. Economic reforms an assessment. Appendices. Bibliography. Index. Poverty and unemployment are the two most formidable problems of the Indian economy. Employment generation has been an important objective of development planning in India. Though employment opportunities have increased over the years growth of population and labour force has aggravated the unemployment problem year after year. The achievement of employment for all objective is nowhere in sight. Due to lack of employment opportunities millions of people still live below the poverty line. More distressingly there is no hope of the two formidable problems of poverty and unemployment being solved in the near future. The Tenth Five Year Plan (2002 07) document acknowledged in the Preface itself that the unemployment problem would aggravate much less mitigate during the Plan Period and thereafter. Indian economy took a new direction when the Government announced its New Industrial Policy in the Parliament in July 1991. Since then the economic reforms process has encompassed all areas of the economy. The wide ranging reforms initiated and implemented since 1991 have induced greater efficiency and competitiveness in all spheres of economic activity. How these reforms have impacted on the growth pattern in terms of employment generation and reduction in poverty is a matter of intense debate among economists and social scientists. The present work is a small contribution to the existing and growing body of literature on various aspects of economic reforms in India. 256 pp.…

India turns out to be an old long standing agriculture dominant economy with history going back to Rig Vedas (8.22.6) where cultivators were used by Ashwini Devas to be followed by Manus and Rishis. In India Agriculture is not just a profession or a source of livelihood here it is rather a way of life a tradition which for centuries has shaped the thought the outlook the culture and the economic life of the people. The book aims at analyzing the long term behaviour of agricultural prices and production in India. It takes the entire period after independence for discussion as this has been the period in which the nation shrugging off the age old subjugation and exploitation launched economic planning for rapid economic growth. Agriculture was accorded a prominent place in the development strategy that followed henceforth. With the advent of economic liberalisation and the adoption of WTO the Indian agriculture is now exposed to the competitive environment in the global market. Now the Indian agriculture has to work under the new Agreement on Agriculture (AoA) which has got three fundamental clauses popularly known as (i) Market Access (Tariffication) (ii) Export Subsidies and (iii) Domestic Support. The focus of AoA under URA is to establish new operational rules and commitments in agriculture and trade policy by reconciling world production and trade which are highly distorted. However the developed and the developing countries are on the path of confrontation over the issue of subsidy to agriculture sector. The developed countries have classified the subsidy into different Boxes and framed the rules which suits them. On the issue of Agricultural Trade in the post liberalisation and WTO era the findings are that both exports as well as imports have increased in the post liberalisation era but simultaneously the balance of trade due to agriculture has also improved. Further exports have shown lower degree of instability as compared to imports. On the issue of export concentration/diversification the result shows a greater degree of diversification during the reform period which reduces the instability as is evident from lower value of Cuddy Della Valle index of i.…

Hardbound. Zustand: As New. New. The Multilateral Trading System which the WTO administers represents a balance of concessions which if implemented in letter and spirit could bring about orderliness transparency and predictability in global trade. The principle of most favoured nation treatment of all Member countries by each country more free trade through reduction of tariffs and progressive removal of Non Tariff barriers elimination of trade distorting measures including subsidies systems of rules to serve as guidelines for national legislation to bring about uniformity in laws and regulations everywhere and simplification of border measures are some of the gains of the system. A very substantial issue for developing countries is the cost of implementing an enforcement system for IPRs. Despite the fact that most WTO Members have now adopted legislation implementing the minimum standards required by the WTO levels of piracy and counterfeiting continue to increase every year. This is a concern not only because of the financial losses to the IPR holders but also because pirated and counterfeit goods can have a serious impact of health and consumer protection. A significant factor in developing countries failing to enforce IPRs is the lack of capacity to do so. The costs of establishing a fully functioning system from the ground up can be very high specially for poor countries with limited resources.…
