Following India 's general election in May 2009, this book
undertakes a critical evaluation of the performance of the United
Progressive Alliance (UPA). It presents a thorough analysis of the
UPA coalition government, and by providing an understanding of the
new innovations in the UPA 's policies, the book goes on to
evaluate the effectiveness of these policies against their aims and
objectives.
This book suggests that there is an analytical framework for
assessing the political consequences of the policies and the UPA 's
success, both at the national and state levels, with particular
reference to new policies in governance, secularism and security.
These three areas constitute important fault lines between the main
national political parties in India, and provide an interesting
point of departure to explore the new emerging trends, as well as
the strong underlying continuities between the UPA administration
and its predecessors. The book offers new insights into the
structure of Indian politics, and is a useful contribution to
studies in South Asian Politics, Governance and Political
Parties.
