The Rise of India and China : Social, Economic and Environmental Impacts, Hardback Book

Hardback

Description

This book offers a comparative analysis of the rise of India and China and their decisive economic and social roles in a global context.

It presents a cumulative picture of the socio-economic challenges as well as the opportunities for growth and inclusive development before India and China. The volume analyses the performance of the two countries based on economic and human development indicators.

It highlights the key achievements of the two countries in governance and financial growth, and the potential for further economic development.

Drawing on government data and empirical research, the book examines India and China’s relative growth in trade, investments, renewable energy technologies, urbanisation, and employment and their policies on agriculture, land use, public health, and rural-urban inequality.

Further, it discusses the shared challenges of inequality, poverty, gender disparity, and environment degradation which both countries face and contrasts their policy priorities and governance mechanisms. Comprehensive and insightful, this book will be of great interest for researchers and scholars of development studies, economics, international relations, comparative politics, sociology, public policy, and Asian studies.

It will also be useful for think tanks, policy makers, and general readers interested in the India–China relationship.
