About The Book

The book Rising Expectations: India’s Transformation is thought-provoking, timely and essential to know the transforming India. It offers a fresh, insightful look into this aspect of growth. It convinces the nations around what is to be gained by the meteoric rise of India. It highlights the importance of interdependency of nations to compete in global economy for growth and prosperity. Over the past two decades or so, India has moved from a largely impoverished, underdeveloped country to a bustling, innovative, fast-changing society. The book shows how and why this could happen. The book captures the totality of India’s rising expectations, its transformation and the challenges when the country is changing at a pace of historic velocity. The transformation has set in through rising expectations of economic gain and enhanced by exposure to more and more of emerging best practices in various domains. The book analyzes all the aspects of this rapidly evolving world, combining hard facts and statistics with personal opinions and observations. The ongoing transformation in many domains is challenging, but more challenging is the search for strategies, solutions and policies to transform these challenges for development and economic growth. The biggest challenge is how to give citizens a sense that they can exercise their will not only over their own government, businesses, and economic choices but also on some of the global forces shaping their lives. The gap between the rising expectations and challenges it poses has been studied in detail. The book will be useful to the students of communication and management, policy-makers, and academicians—both national and international—and all those who are interested in knowing the transformation of India through the success story of globalization. It is essential reading for those interested in meteoric rise of India through transformation in the realms of entrepreneurship, science and technology.
