This book presents a concise economic history of India from 1600 to the mobile economy of the twenty-first century.

- Indian economy and nationalist movement in the nineteenth and early-twentieth century; the Great Depression and its global consequences
- Gandhiism and ‘mass nationalism’; Independence and Partition; the impact of the World Wars; the inter-war economy; the rise of the dollar, and other key global trends
- The Cold War and India
- Constitutional remedies, nation-building and industrial policies; food security, the Green Revolution, and the power politics of 1970s
- Liberalization, privatization, and globalization in the 1990s; and
- The economy of war and peace, India–China relations, and current trends in political economy
The book offers a lucid and insightful narrative of how the economy unfolded in India. It will interest readers of Indian history, economic history, and South Asian history and other general readers.
