India's development odyssey stands at a critical juncture. In
A Sixth of Humanity, Devesh Kapur and Avrind Subramanian trace how one of the world's largest and most diverse countries uniquely attempted four concurrent transformations: building a state, creating an economy, changing society and forging a sense of nationhood. By drawing on deep archives of political and economic policy documents spanning over 75 years, Kapur and Subramanian create a compelling picture of the current state of India's political economy and the crossroads it now faces. Connecting national development policies to lived realities across the country and social groups, they provide a roadmap of India's past choices and the crossroads it now faces.
