In 2016 India became the world s fastest growing large economy, overtaking China. India s resurgence has renewed global interest in the geopolitical implications of India s economic rise. Sanjaya Baru s book explores India s evolving geo-economic relations with the West and with Asia, particularly China, in the aftermath of the global financial crisis of 2008-09. These essays analyze the influence of business and trade on foreign policy, India s approach to multilateralism and the relevance of regional trade integration for the Indian economy and South Asia. The essays were written after Baru served a term in the Prime Minister s Office in New Delhi as a key advisor to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh during India s negotiation of a civil nuclear energy agreement with the United States. They show the author s intimate knowledge of India s external economic policies, acquired from his vantage position as an influential newspaper editor and an advisor to the Prime Minister."
