5.0 out of 5 stars A success on many levels, August 7, 2007

This review is from: Transition and Development in India (Paperback)
This splendid book has no shortage of fresh insights into the process of economic development in India during the modern era. It succeeds in explaining what is at stake in the debate over how to achieve economic development, how these debates have shaped (and been shaped by) Marxist, Keynesian, and classical economic theory, and how the lens through which we view economic development illuminates certain aspects of the society while obscuring others.

The book applies and extends the postmodern Marxist class analysis of Resnick and Wolff (see "Knowledge and Class", "Class Theory and History", and "Economics: Marxian vs. Neoclassical"), who are influenced by such thinkers as Althusser, Balibar, Gramsci, Lukacs, Adorno, and others. The book offers an interesting use of the class theory, taking it in a slightly new direction. I highly recommend this book to all serious students of development, class theory, and the recent history of India.
