This book uses a combination of business history and political
economy to chart the development of Indian business organisation
from independence in 1947 through to the twenty-first century. The
Indian economy has undergone a dramatic transformation to become
one of the leading global economies of the twenty-first century.
After ending colonialisation and gaining independence in 1947, the
economy moved from a reliance on the export of raw materials to an
era of state-promoted development, followed by an era of
liberalisation and integration in the world economy by the close of
the twentieth century. This book looks at traditional industries,
such as textiles, to industries of the second and third industrial
revolution, ranging from chemicals and oils to telecommunications.
This book highlights how Indian businesses proved capable of
importing both new managerial ideas and organisational developments
while adapting them to the specific domestic context. The case
studies underline the use of human resource management in the
post-colonial 'indianisation' of foreign-owned multinationals and
the rise of new business organisation and management training in
the development of Indian multinational organisations such as Tata
Sons. The chapters in this book were originally published as a
special issue of Business History.
