Development Concerns in the 21st Century

The book consists of essays written by eminent academicians in honour of Dr. K.V. Sundaram. The focus of the essays is on wide range of issues that have been close to Dr. Sundaram. The development debate is an on-going one but by and large the issues have remained the same in spite of more than sixty years of Independence. The essays focus on livelihood issues and employment generation, promoting gender equality, ensuring a clean environment, promoting participatory approach to development and much more. The scholars have dealt on various themes, analysed them in the context of the emerging scenario and given a new dimension to the development debate. The essays are well written and thought provoking.
The book will be useful to policy makers, researchers, students and development administrators.
