India and the Tariff Problem (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the conditions in which India finds itself as it considers protectionist policies and potential trade preferences with the United Kingdom. The author describes Indiaâs resources and industries, their potential for growth, and the economic, famine, and political impact of increased industrialization. The author also provides a summary of historical and current protectionist sentiment in India, arguing that British observers fail to appreciate the force of this sentiment and the intimate connection between increased Indian industrial activity, decreased threat of famine, and increased political freedom. The book makes an argument that industrial diversity would be a huge advantage to India, and discusses the prospects for various Indian industries. It examines the natural advantages of India as well as the crucial challenges to its industrial growth, particularly the lack of domestic coal production and iron to support large-scale steel production. The book contends that, rather than additional protections, India needs policies that allow domestic industries time to adapt to modern production methods. The book concludes that the choice India makes about protectionism and preferences will have a major impact on the country's development trajectory.
