The Economy of South Asia

More about the book

Focusing on the rapid economic growth of South Asia, the author examines the region's transformation since the 1980s, highlighting the interplay of politics, markets, and resources. By analyzing India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Nepal collectively, the book reveals how shared resources and market conditions have led to similar economic trajectories despite differing political histories. It challenges conventional narratives that center on individual countries, offering a fresh perspective on the potential sustainability of this growth and its implications for the global economy.
