The new turn in India’s economic policies and performance in the last decade of the 20th Century; the success of Indian enterprise in the post-WTO world; the emergence of a confident professional middle-class; a demonstrated nuclear capability; and, the resilience of an open society and an open economy, in the face of multiple and complex challenges—these have all shaped India’s response to the tectonic shifts in the global balance of power in the post-Cold War era. No economist has paid a closer attention to the strategic consequences of India’s increasingly impressive economic performance than Sanjaya Baru. In this collection of academic essays and newspaper columns, that experts and lay readers would find equally stimulating, Baru explores the business of diplomacy and the diplomacy of business in a rising India. The role of India’s cultural and intellectual ‘soft power’ in shaping global perceptions of India are examined. The book offers a panoramic view of the geopolitics and the geoeconomics of India’s recent rise as a free market democracy.
