References. Comments on the review by the discussants. Annexure. The mid year review of the Indian economy for 2005 2006 presents the economic scenario with cautious optimism. The return to buoyant performance of the manufacturing sector the continuing buoyancy of the services sector the sharp increase in the savings rate and the creditable performance of exports present an optimistic picture of the Indian economy. Despite the severe fiscal imbalance sharply increasing oil prices and a poor political climate for reforms the economy has registered a growth of over 8 per cent in the first half of the current year. The high performance of the economy consecutively for three years despite several constraints has given the impression that the economy has reached a higher growth trajectory. Such an assessment however would be premature and the review highlights several risks which have dragged the economy such as the continuing fiscal imbalance infrastructure bottlenecks perverse incentives and governance problems. Nevertheless achieving 8 per cent growth during the eleventh plan is within the realm of feasibility but that is possible only if the pace of reforms is accelerated. Restoration of fiscal balance improving infrastructure addressing labour laws small scale industry dereservation improving the efficiency of the financial sector creating an enabling environment for investment and productivity increase in agriculture and addressing the problems of lagging regions are some of the measures needed for sustained high growth. 202 pp.…

India's governance structure a throwback to the Raj days has to meet the challenges of lifting hundreds of millions of people out of poverty and empowering them as citizens of a democratic polity. The development and welfare orientation at the normative level in India does not get translated too well in positive terms into actual results of a progressive and just society. More and better plans are constantly drawn up but the bureaucracy's capacity to deliver never worth bragging about so far as development is concerned has noticeably declined over the years. Political masters and the civil service elite often resort to collusion and connivance to use public office for private gain thwarting all good intentions. Corruption and inefficiency combined with callousness in dealing with the public certainly are very serious problems. However we really ought to be looking more closely at fundamental systemic problems in administration. Our basic civil service structure at the All India level the focus of this book suffers from several maladies including Lack of specialization and discrimination against specialists insularity lack of accountability unsuitable recruitment and testing procedures and faulty personnel management. That the country persists in having such administrative setup in this day and age is nothing short of tragic. The situation is so bad that tinkering with the administrative structure even overhauling it will not to do much good. The need clearly is to reform the system drastically to re engineer it so as to have competency technical and otherwise and professionalism accountability and transparency and responsiveness and civility let us make our civil servants civil and servants of the people. After all aren't these the imperatives of democratic governance within the overall goal of achieving rapid economic and social progress. 144 pp.…

This the failure of land reforms has vitiated Bihar politics. Both caste and class play a decisive role in the present day politics of Bihar. Is casteism an urban phenomenon in the state.

Federal experience. 7. Social revolution fundamental rights and the judiciary. 8. Parties and politics in India. 9. Paradox of democracy. 10. What next. Index. The book exposes the organic defects of formal democracy and demonstrates its weakness in satisfying the aspirations of the demos for participation and equality. Effort is made to take the discussion of democratic theory to a higher level where theory and history mingle to provide a better vantage point from which to view the phenomenon of democracy. Also the theoretical perspective projected in Democracy in India Form and Substance presents a critical account of the functioning of democratic institutions in India and shows its vulnerable aspects. The approach adopted in Democracy in India Form and Substance differs sharply from other studies. Most of these treat formal representative democracy as the last chapter in the evolution of the democratic idea since its appearance in Greece. It is considered without questioning as a universally valid model of democracy. Also it is supposed to solve finally and satisfactorily the paradox of freedom versus liberty. But formal democracy is the symbol of the defeat of democracy by democratic ideology. This ideology celebrates only the external form of democracy drowning its substance in the din of vacuous academic discussion by pundits and soothsayers of democracy praising to the skies the characteristics and the merit of formal democracy. The book is penetrating and incisive in its analysis lucid in presentation and broad in its intellectual sweep. 278 pp.…
