In this famous treatise, which transformed Malthus into an intellectual celebrity, he posited the hypothesis that population, if unchecked, increases at a geometric rate (i.e. 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, etc.), whereas subsistence grows at an arithmetic rate (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.).\n\u003cbr\u003eMalthus’s hypothesis implied that actual population always has a tendency to push above the food supply. Any attempt to ameliorate the condition of the lower classes by increasing their incomes or improving agricultural productivity would be fruitless, as the extra means of subsistence would be completely absorbed by an induced boost in population. As long as this tendency remains, Malthus argued, the perfectibility of society will always be out of reach. Malthus suggested that only natural causes like war, famine, pestilence, etc. could check excessive population growth.\n\u003cbr\u003eModern demographers find Malthusian view of power of population highly pessimistic. However, the facts that the world population is increasing at a fast rate notwithstanding various family planning measures, and world food security is under serious threat bear testimony that Malthus’s ideas are holding true even today. \n\u003cbr\u003eThe book deeply analyses the views of earlier writers on the subject of population, like Godwin, Condorcet, Russel Wallace, Richard Price among others, challenges them and convincingly brings forth Malthus’s hypotheses which have gained universal acceptance. It also contains an inculcating Introduction by K.R. Gupta, a well-known economist, which not only analyses Malthus’s views but also studies many other factors like migration of population and problems related thereto, population ageing and the ideas of economists like Adam Smith and David Ricardo to further analyse the issues relating to population. The Introduction facilitates easy understanding of Malthus’s hypotheses and serves as a curtain-raiser for the book.\n\u003cbr\u003eIt will be highly useful to the students and teachers of economics, sociology and anthropology and researchers in these fields.

It will prove immensely useful to the students and teachers of economics, researchers in this field as well as economists and policymakers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Publishers \u0026 Distributors (P) Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44907972624535,"sku":"9788126909384","price":697.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9788126909384.webp?v=1769306175"},{"product_id":"antarrashtriya-vittiya-poonji-ka-samrajya","title":"Antarrashtriya Vittiya Poonji Ka Samrajya","description":"\u003cp\u003e • Author(s): Ram Nivas Bairwa\u003cbr\u003e • Publisher: Atlantic\u003cbr\u003e • Publisher Imprint: Atlantic\u003cbr\u003e • Subject: Economics\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eसन् 2016 में भारत सरकार की तरफ से किये गये प्रचलित मुद्रा के लगभग 85 प्रतिशत मुद्रा के नोटों का विमुद्रीकरण, जिसे आम भाषा में नोटबंदी कहा गया है, के पीछे के बताये गये कारणों ने भारत में आम आदमी को भी अर्थशास्त्र के सामान्य ज्ञान का पाठ पढ़ा दिया।विकास पैसों की मांग से नहीं मापा जा सकता बल्कि देश के किसानों, मजदूरों और उनके परिवारों के जीवन स्तर से मापा जाता है। ठेकेदारों और दलालों (एजेंटों) पर निर्भर अर्थव्यवस्था देश को कहीं पर भी नहीं ले जा सकती सिवाय अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय वित्तीय पूंजी के पोषण के, क्योंकि भारत जैसे देशों में ठेकेदारी और दलाली की शुरूआत अंग्रेजी शासन द्वारा व्यापारिक पूंजी की सेवा के लिये की गयी थी। अतः उनके विकास की परिभाषा सिर्फ पैसों के इर्द-गिर्द ही घूमती है।सभी विकासशील देशों का यही अर्थशास्त्र है, जहाँ वह अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय वित्तीय पूंजी में अपना-अपना हित साधने में लगे हुए हैं।\n\u003cbr\u003eअर्थशास्त्र की इसी दिशा को केन्द्रित करके यह पुस्तक अन्तर्राष्ट्रीय वित्तीय पूंजी का साम्राज्य लिखी गयी है जिसके 15 अध्यायों में पूंजी और मुद्रा के संक्षिप्त इतिहास के साथ राजनीति अन्तर्संबद्धता को दर्शाया गया है।हिन्दी भाषा में इस विषय पर यह पहली पुस्तक कही जा सकती है।\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Publishers \u0026 Distributors (P) Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44907978129559,"sku":"9788126928668","price":417.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9788126928668.webp?v=1769306189"},{"product_id":"banking-reforms-in-india","title":"Banking Reforms In India","description":"\u003cp\u003e • Author(s): M.S.

These new banks came to be known as New Generation tech-savvy banks. Following the merger of some banks, the banking sector was reviltalized and since then has registered a rapid growth with strong contribution from all the three types of banks, namely government banks, private banks and foreign banks. The next stage of banking reforms saw the increase of foreign direct investment (FDI) in banks from a maximum of 10% to 74%, though with some restrictions.\n\u003cbr\u003eThe new wave of banking in India ushered in a modern outlook and tech-savvy methods of working. The use of computers has led to the introduction of online banking in India, making it very convenient for the customers to make transactions. The introduction of MICR technology in the banks has provided for the use of standardized cheque forms and encoders. In 1995 was introduced the Electronic Funds Transfer (ETS) system. In 2008, RBI brought a system to allow cheque truncation which was first rolled out in the National Capital Region and then all over India. \n\u003cbr\u003ePhysical as well as virtual expansion of banking through mobile banking, internet banking, tele banking, and ATMs has been taking place since the previous decade and has gained momentum in the last few years.\n\u003cbr\u003eThe book describes all these key developments in banking sector in India and shows how banking sector reforms have modernized Indian banking. Besides describing banking structure before liberalization and how it got transformed after the reforms, it takes up many pertinent issues, including international developments in banking, balance of payment crisis, financial sector reforms, introduction of new financial standards, Know Your Customers (KYC) norms, technology developments, Indian banking at present and how it has gained from reforms.

For example, the financial crisis triggered by subprime lending in America would not have spread to other parts of the world in the absence of globalization.

The still existing oldest bank in India is the State Bank of India. India’s Partition in 1947 after Independence adversely impacted India’s economy paralyzing banking activities for months. The Government of India initiated measures to play an active role in the economic life of the nation, and the industrial policy resolution ushered in by the Government in 1948 envisaged a mixed economy. This resulted into greater involvement of the state in different segments of the economy including banking and finance.\n\u003cbr\u003eAn ordinance was issued in 1969 and 14 largest commercial banks were nationalized. These banks contained 85 percent of bank deposits in the country. Six more commercial banks were nationalized in 1980. The stated reason for the nationalization was to give the government more control of credit delivery. In the early 1990s, under its policy of privatization and liberalization, the Government issued licences to some private banks. These came to be known as new generation tech-savvy banks. This move, along with the rapid growth in the economy of India, revitalized the banking sector in India, which has seen rapid growth with strong contribution from all the three types of banks, namely, government banks, private banks and foreign banks.\n\u003cbr\u003eThe new policies that are obtaining in banks in India have discarded much of what may be called traditional style of functioning. There are extended hours of work and public dealing in the banks these days. Through the CBS system, a group of networked branches provide core banking services to the customers. The new developments have ushered in a modern outlook and tech-savvy methods of working for traditional banks. All this has led to a retail boom in India. People have not just demanded more from their banks but also received more.\n\u003cbr\u003eThe book provides a history of banking in India, from the origin of money and banking, to the present scenario of technology-driven services. The aspects related directly and indirectly to banking have been studied. Banks in India from the 18th century, different types of banks in India, bank credit, banker-customer relationship, foreign exchange business, non-performing assets, financial sector reforms, risk management, Basel Accord, rupee convertibility, technology developments in India, social responsibility of banks and Right to Information Act (RTI) are the major topics taken up in this book. A peep into the future of banking in India has also been given. \n\u003cbr\u003eThe book will be useful for the students of banking, bank staff and those preparing for competitive examinations.

And it was through hard way that they learnt that the key is their own participation and motivation as well as demanding transparency and accountability of actions of all contact agents. Rural people realized that the quality of life will come through their own efforts and participation, and so will be the economic gains. This realization and change of attitude is a significant driver for growth of rural economy. The discontents, demands, aspirations and motivation of ruralists further drive the rural economy.\n\u003cbr\u003eTo make rural economy grow, the focus is on economic prosperity, environmental sustainability, and social equity. It is a grand vision, but we can implement it, and achieve it through Public-Private-NGO-People model in rural revival and revitalization to give it new life and energy. The aim should be to increase the overall scale of resources that flow into rural India, to find ways of increasing the scale of locally-generated resources from within rural areas, and to be much more strategic about the nature of investments in rural areas.
