Book Description

According to Nehru, the transition from a backward agricultural society
to a modern industrial society was the only possible road for India to
progress. So for the last few decades, India has been moving away from
state intervention in the economy towards a liberalized market economy.
Transition and Development in India challenges the current basis of
development theories in India, laying the groundwork for an alternative,
Marxist approach to transition in India. Cullenberg and Chakrabarti offer
a detailed and critical study of the theories of transition in India,
including debates on modes of production and subaltern studies. In doing
so, they also provide an analysis of Marxist theories of development in
general, ending by presenting an entirely new Marxist framework for
transition that should apply not just to India, but to all developing
nations.
