Summary
This book, the first of two volumes, explores Indias economic development from 5000BC through to the Indias independence period from 1947AD to 2022AD. The specific characteristics of economic development in India are examined to help determine development paths India can pursue to create sustainable development in the 21st century. The transition from the primary section to the secondary sector, through the process of industrialisation and in turn the move towards the services sector, is discussed in relation to climate change and the pressure on resources posed by population growth. This book aims to contextualise Indias economic development within the political economy of trade, sustainable development and culture with a particular focus on the institutions that have emerged in the Indian sub-continent since 5000BC. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in economic history, development economics, and the political economy. Sangaralingam Ramesh is a Departmental Tutor in Economics at the Department of Continuing Education, University of Oxford, and a Lecturer (Teaching) in Economics at University College London, UK.
