Even planning and public sector the twin concepts associated with the socialist system tend to be swept off by the storm. It is in this context that an analysis of these two concepts as they have emerged and have been implemented in India after independence assumes great relevance. The author R.C.

More importantly what social role does the public sector play in the process of development. Is there an alternative to it. What was the vision of development that emerged out of the freedom struggle in India and how far has it materialized. A thought provoking dissertation on a burning issue of today the book is of interest to academics journalists and to all those interested in the vital subject of economics of development in an under developed economy. 202 pp. Seller Inventory # 51865
