Foreign trade occupies a significant place in the process of economic development of any country. No country can live without trade. However, trade has both favourable and unfavourable effects. Although there are theoretical approaches to explain and to understand trade relationship between countries, such discussions are very crude generalization of international trade relations. Therefore, it is important to understand the trade relationship between two countries as a case study for subjective clarity. India has major trade relation with the European Union of which France is a member. Despite, France is emerging as a major trading partner and also co-walker in international policies. This book probes deep into Indo-French economic relations that include the extent, magnitude, nature, purpose, sources and growth of trade and aid between the two nations. Sparing over six chapters, the book provides as introduction the understanding of economic relations between developed and developing countries in general. The second chapter makes a comparative analysis or Indian and French economies along with trade balance. The third chapter deals with Indo-French trade relations. Fourth chapter is devoted to Indo-French aid relations. Fifth chapter separately deals with Bilateral agreements between India and France. The conclusions and suggestions are given in the last i.e. in the sixth chapter. The book also provides a bibliography for specialized reading on the subject.
