The Indian state of Kerala is known for its high social model of
development and social democratic governance. This book presents
the most comprehensive analysis of the Kerala Model of Social
Development to date. The model has often been identified as one
worth emulating because it is seen to have taken the state to the
zenith of human development and democratic governance. Using an
interdisciplinary approach, the book sheds new light on the
paradoxes of the Indian state and its model of economic
development. The book provides a consolidated exploration and
critique of the Kerala model, which usually has been portrayed as
linear with the grand narrative of progress, development and
democracy. Chapters discuss the past and present dimensions of the
Kerala experience from a historical and political-economic
perspective, thus providing a fresh understanding of the emerging
concerns in the state and the construction of an ethically viable
development agenda, eschewing the scourge of social inequity. A
significant contribution to the literature on development,
democracy and the state, it analyses the complex interconnectedness
of the various political-economic and socio-cultural domains
involved in these experiences.
