ISBN: 9780198292043 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) India is a country of extreme economic and social diversity, and the performances of Indian states in eliminating basic deprivations are remarkably disparate. This book, a companion volume to Dreze's and Sen's India: Economic Development and Social Opportunity (OUP 1996), draws lessons from this diversity through three case studies (of Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, and Kerala) and two national overviews that look at socio-economic policy and demographic indicators.

This book explores the role of public action in eliminating deprivation and expanding human freedoms in India. The analysis is based on a broad and integrated view of development, which focuses on well-being and freedom rather than the standard indicators of economic growth.

Indian Development: Selected Regional Perspectives
ISBN: 9780198860167 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) India is a country of great diversity. The commonly used indicators of 'quality of life' (such as life expectancy, infant mortality, and literacy) vary tremendously between the different states, rivalling international contrasts between very low performing countries and very high achieving ones. This volume of essays reflects an attempt to draw lessons from the disparate experiences within India, rather than from contrasts with the experiences of other countries. It supplements Dreze and Sen's India: Economic Development and Social Opportunity, which studies what we can learn from...

India Economic Development and Social Opportunity
ISBN: 9780198295280 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) India's success in reducing endemic deprivation since Independence has been quite limited. Recent diagnoses of this failure of policy have concentrated on the counterproductive role of government regulation, and on the need for economic incentives to accelerate the growth of the economy. This book argues that an assessment of India's failure to eliminate basic deprivations has to go beyond this limited focus, and to take note of the role played in that failure by inadequate public involvement in the provision of basic education, health care, social security, and related fields, Even the...

An Uncertain Glory: India and Its Contradictions
ISBN: 9780691165523 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) When India became independent in 1947 after two centuries of colonial rule, it immediately adopted a firmly democratic political system, with multiple parties, freedom of speech, and extensive political rights. The famines of the British era disappeared, and steady economic growth replaced the economic stagnation of the Raj. The growth of the Indian economy quickened further over the last three decades and became the second fastest among large economies. Despite a recent dip, it is still one of the highest in the world. Maintaining rapid as well as environmentally sustainable...

The authors review current literature on the subject. Some chapters explore broad themes, while others describe social security provisions in various regions in South Asia, China, Latin America, and Southern Africa.

The Political Economy of Hunger: Selected Essays
ISBN: 9780198288831 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 644 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Hailed on its initial publication as a work with immediate implications for countless lives, Dreze & Sen's The Political Economy of Hunger is the classic analysis of an extraordinary paradox: in a world of food surpluses and diseases of overeating, hunger kills millions more people each year than wars or political repression. Now this abridged version puts the most essential and influential essays from the three-volume work within the reach of concerned citizens who want to understand the real causes of hunger and deprivation.
Famines, the contributors believe, are caused not just by... Hailed on its initial publication as a work with immediate implications for countless lives, Dreze & Sen's The Political Economy of Hunger is the clas...
