Much of the discussion of India in the public sphere has focused on economic policy settings and restructuring, annual growth rates, trade relations and the nation’s status as an economic and political actor within the international system. This collection considers other dimensions of socio-economic transformation in India and its profound impact on society and nature. While economic and ecological fragility are now very apparently problems of a ‘global’ scale they are nevertheless grounded and experienced at the local scale where vulnerable and marginal people located in the urban periphery and in rural areas confront these ‘crises’ most acutely. The studies in this collection encompass many of the most important social and political concerns of India in this age of crisis, namely, the politics of water resources and land acquisition and use; the interaction between food security, markets, and institutions; the politics and strategies of labour movements; narratives and practices of ‘development’ and contestation over forms of agrarian production in India; the link between urbanisation and local class, caste and political actors; and the potential for civil society to either be co-opted or to contest neoliberal logics and forms of governance. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of South Asian Studies.

India is passing through anxious times. The current policy of economic liberalisation, notwithstanding its obvious advantages, has the potential to unleash social tensions; while the recent challenges to secularism have given rise to grave political problems. These developments underscore the need for a critical look at the constitutive principles and the current predicament of Indian polity and society. This volume of original essays addresses these and related issues.

Excerpt from The Crisis in India There can be no doubt that India is passing through a serious transition both socially and politically. The one great point in which the writer of the book believes is the intimate connection between our Social and Political advance and how largely the latter is dependent for its success 'upon the former. If he has succeeded in bringing out this point clearly and made his countrymen realize the urgent need for an upheaval in the direction Of social reformation the writer of these pages will feel amply rewarded.

This book offers an analysis of the causes, development, and likely consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic for global neoliberalism. The analysis will draw upon the author’s previous work on neoliberalism, and on its twin crises: the economic crisis (the Global Financial Crisis (GFC), ongoing since 2007) and, subsequently, the crisis of political democracy that has been associated with the rise of ‘spectacular’ authoritarian leaders in several countries. The approach is grounded on Marxist political economy. The book argues that the Covid-19 pandemic emerges out of this context of deep inequalities and crises in the economy and in politics, and it is likely to reinforce the exclusionary tendencies of neoliberalism, with detrimental implications both for economic prosperity and for democracy. In turn, the pandemic has revealed the limitations of neoliberalism like never before, with implications for the legitimacy of capitalism itself, and opening unprecedented spaces for the left. This book will be of interest to academics in economics, international relations, political science, political economy, sociology and development studies.

This provocative work argues that India is experiencing a social crisis as a result of different aspects of Indian society developing at different rates. Focusing on communalism, political institutions, and general social codes, Saberwal argues that during and since the colonial period Indian society has experienced dramatic social and technological development, yet most people continue to hold attitudes traditionally belonging to the much smaller universes of caste and village.
