India’s Tryst With Destiny Debunking Myths That Undermine Progress And Addressing New Challenges by Jagdish N. Bhagwati
Debunking Myths That Undermine Progress And Addressing New Challenges
The book argues for renewed commitment to economic liberalization and open trade while dismantling common misconceptions—such as that globalization necessarily harms the poor or that protectionism and heavy state control are viable paths to widespread prosperity—and emphasizes that sustained growth, supported by sound macroeconomic policy, structural reforms, and better governance, is the most effective route to reducing poverty and expanding opportunity. It examines barriers that have slowed India’s progress, calls for reforms in labor markets, infrastructure, and education, and stresses pragmatic policies to address new challenges including inequality, environmental pressures, and the need to translate growth into inclusive social outcomes.
