This book presents a selection of multifaceted development issues involving social, economic and environmental aspects, in order to inspire and guide implementation of the United Nations’ SDGs. It focuses on economic development, human well-being and sustainable pathways, with special attention to financial and knowledge resources, as well as measurement concepts. In doing so, the book draws a distinction between sustainability and sustainable pathways by refraining from dealing with broader and more direct environmental sustainability issues like climate change, environmental degradation and sustainable energy. The choice of topics, apart from their relevance for India, was guided by their importance in connection with multiple SDG goals. In addition to revealing the intricacies of systemic relationships and the dilemmas they create in policy choices, the book examines the role of actors and the critical importance of partnerships to help readers comprehend the breadth of diversities and inter-linkages involved. The roles of the central and state governments, the parliament and the state assemblies, the civil society, UN agencies and district-level authorities are separately explored in depth. Sharing valuable insights, the book encourages policymakers, practitioners and scholars to move towards a sustainable and equitable economy, and supports them in their efforts.

What can prosperity possibly mean in a world of environmental and social limits? The publication of Prosperity without Growth was a landmark in the sustainability debate. Tim Jackson’s piercing challenge to conventional economics openly questioned the most highly prized goal of politicians and economists alike: the continued pursuit of exponential economic growth. Its findings provoked controversy, inspired debate and led to a new wave of research building on its arguments and conclusions. This substantially revised and re-written edition updates those arguments and considerably expands upon them. Jackson demonstrates that building a ‘post-growth’ economy is a precise, definable and meaningful task. Starting from clear first principles, he sets out the dimensions of that task: the nature of enterprise; the quality of our working lives; the structure of investment; and the role of the money supply. He shows how the economy of tomorrow may be transformed in ways that protect employment, facilitate social investment, reduce inequality and deliver both ecological and financial stability. Seven years after it was first published, Prosperity without Growth is no longer a radical narrative whispered by a marginal fringe, but an essential vision of social progress in a post-crisis world. Fulfilling that vision is simply the most urgent task of our times.

This book provides concerned citizens and national leaders with a comprehensive analysis of India s environmental problems, and suggestions for practical and innovative solutions by a team of experts drawn from LEAD India s network. The analysis is clear and uncompromising. Agrarian women have become poorer in the ten years since Rio, while environmental degradation has increased. Globalisation has clearly benefited the middle classes, but what of its impact on the poor? Can science and technology help foster sustainability and meet the needs of the poorest? Are intellectual property rights able to protect the kind of traditional and indigenous knowledge that underpins India? The challenge lies in how to maintain the lessons from the country s micro successes and macro failures. The writers argue that hope should not be lost and that the way forward is to build a coalition for responsible frugality .

Following the reforms undertaken in the last two decades, India’s economic landscape has been radically transformed. This book examines the new economic map, which is shown to be shaped by two intertwined currents: globalization and sustainability. Weaving extensively through these currents and the canvas of development in the Indian economy they open up, this work seeks to introduce new methodologies, a corpus of concepts and modes of analysis to make sense of the emerging order of things. What transpires in the course of the investigation is a critical reflection of the present in which not only the new institutions, policies and practices are analyzed, but their limitations, fragility and at times myopic approaches are brought to light. By highlighting the rough edges created by the new conditions, this book is firmly engaged with the frontier of the Indian economy and ends up challenging many well-known conjectures and assumptions. In doing so, it strives to shift the Indian economy to a new terrain, thereby fundamentally re-locating and re-orienting the discourse of that economy as a unique object of analysis.

Amrit Kaal is going to be the most important 25 years of modern India. The indomitable spirit, indestructible grittiness, and undefeatable resolve of almost one-fifth of the global population, as it marches towards prosperity, are set to shape the country’s future in significant ways. While India aims to be a developed country with a GDP of 25 trillion dollars and an upper middle-income country with a per capita income of 10 thousand dollars, the northeast region, particularly Assam, must contribute equally to the growth story of the nation. Assam is a mesmerising Indian state, brimming with diversity and culture, but it also faces economic complexities due to years of disturbances. To catch up with the other developed states, a quick shift of gear needs to be made by applying a model of development that embraces the rich tapestry of Assam’s heritage. The Assam Model is a development approach that comprises short-term goals, such as promoting local industries and attracting investment from established businesses. It also includes aspirational development programs that can bring exponential growth to the state. While Social development is one of the core areas of the model, the efficiency of government enterprises takes as much prominence as running intelligent governance with digital technologies. Celebrating the resilience of a state that continues to evolve and flourish amidst the winds of change, this book contemplates the path ahead towards a prosperous future. Whether you’re an academic, a policymaker, or an inquisitive individual eager to understand Assam’s socio-economic dynamics, The Assam Model of Development in Amrit Kaal offers a compelling blend of knowledge and inspiration. The author expects that the suggestive tone of the book should be construed as an invitation for discussion and debate on the topic of development.
