| Abstract
|
:
|
Barbara Harriss-White describes the working of the Indian economy through its most important social structures of accumulation. Successive chapters explore a range of topics including labour, capital, and the state. The author's conclusion challenges the notion that liberalisation releases the economy from political interference.
