Synopsis:
Can social democratic development be reinvented? This pioneering book by concerned scholars looks at experiences of social democratic development in Scandinavia and India. By comparing situations both in the North and South, they seek to explore the possibilities for the reinvention of social democracy in an age of uneven development in the South and growing inequality globally.
About the Author: Olle Törnquist, Professor of Political Science and Development Research, University of Oslo, has written widely on radical politics, development and democratisation. In addition to parts of India, his main empirical focus since the 1970s is Indonesia, where he also co-directs research with scholarly activists. Previously Director of the LSE's Development Studies Institute, John Harriss is Professor of International Studies at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver. He has written extensively on institutions and the politics of development, and on the politics and society of India.
