This work provides a unique approach to the questions: how will China and India grow in the future? And what will its impact be on the rest of the world? Yokokawa, Ghosh, and Rowthorn aim to provide new points of view on Asian dynamism, situating recent economic expansion within an analysis of capitalist accumulation and its ramifications. They examine the long-term dynamics of global capitalism vis-a-vis China and India. Nine chapters are divided into three parts: the renaissance of China and India; Chinese perspective; and Indian perspective. China's impact on the world economy after the turn of the century and its part in shaping the direction of globalization is explored, and the Indian economy since independence is analyzed. This is a book for scholars and students in the fields of economics and political science. - Book News
