Development and Public Finance is a commemorative volume on late Dr. Raja
J. Chelliah, one of the foremost Public Finance experts of India. It is designed
as a compendium of essays on contemporary issues of Public Finance and
Development, focusing on the rapidly globalizing Indian economy. Well-
known scholars and experts have contributed insightful articles to this
collection.

All contributions have been exclusively invited for this publication. They
represent a weaving of interdependent themes of Development and Public
Finance and are sequentially arranged to reflect their interrelationships.
Some of the important topics analyzed in these articles are: divestment and
privatization, financial transaction tax, carbon tax, fiscal federalism, goods
and service tax, decentralization, social policy and climate change.

Not only is this volume academically rich, but it also has an entire section
where Dr. Chelliah's peers and colleagues talk about him and how they saw
him—the man they variously describe as a great scholar, a brilliant
economist and an indomitable crusader.
