India: Macroeconomics and Political Economy, 1964-1991 - Vijay Joshi - Paperback

Presents a history of India's macroeconomy and recent developments in its political economy. Valuable lessons from India's stabilization policies explain how structural adjustment can also benefit long-term growth in the subcontinent. This analysis looks at various government policies that have influenced imports and exports, national investment and savings, gross national and domestic product, and the balance of payments. It specifically examines the degree to which stabilization has reformed agriculture and industry and has improved the relationship between the public and private sectors. A brief introduction to the Indian economy is given, and India's basic economic controls are reviewed. These include the government's national budget and its regulation of prices, production, investment, interest rates, and credit allocation. Also discussed are recent trends in investment and public spending.Joshi, Vijay is the author of 'India: Macroeconomics and Political Economy, 1964-1991 - Vijay Joshi - Paperback' with ISBN 9780821326527 and ISBN 082132652X.
