In this work, an American analyst of Indian economic development looks at the way the interplay between markets and governments has evolved over the past thirty-five years. Starting with a statement of the issue, Professor Lewis explores the history of what transpired between the government and its principal aid donors during its first experience with reform in the late 1960s. Thereafter, he discusses rural matters from the 1970s, current policy issues, and the possibilities of movement toward a more "spread out, lightly centered system of distant, differentiated states." Scholars of India's development, as well as economists, will find this book informative and enlightening.
