More DescriptionClass and Conflict reflects on the enduring influence of Bardhan's original publication in the context of post-liberalization developments in India. The contributors to this volume engage with a wide range of issues, such as whether big business dominates India today, how subsidies retard economic growth, and how the middle classes are transforming politics.
