Global value chains (GVCs) are fraught with the phenomenon of
fragmentation and dispersion of production across the world. India
presents a unique example with its high potential in manufacturing
capability but low integration in GVCs. This book examines the
reasons why India has failed to integrate within GVCs so far and
looks at key examples to understand the impediments in this
process. The chapters bring together case studies from across the
manufacturing industry - labour-intensive (garment, paper and
diamond), capital-intensive (automobile and petrochemical), and
knowledge-intensive (semi-conductor microchip, chemical and
pharmaceutical) sectors. Together, they present stories of
successful integration of some firms in GVCs as well as the
difficulties faced by them. The volume also highlights the
importance of GVCs in the context of developing countries in terms
of benefits such as income and value generation, knowledge and
technology collaborations, and advances in systems and processes.
This book will interest scholars and researchers in economics,
international trade studies, development economics and business
management as well as to practitioners, policymakers, government
officials, and those in the corporate sector.
This book explores ways in which India can negotiate the low carbon
path up until 2030, when it is expected to be the largest economy
after the US and China. It comprehensively reviews the low climate
pathways for India and provides a guide to the pathways that the
country can adopt. India's population, energy demands and emissions
will increase significantly, and the challenge is to restrict its
CO2 emissions and walk the low carbon path. Through its Intended
Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs), India has pledged to
reduce its emissions significantly. Addressing the question of
which low carbon paths India can adhere to without compromising its
growth, the book identifies the key factors that feed into existing
models of climate change and discusses the cost of action versus
inaction. It also examines key issues concerning India's
environment through the lens of the transport, industry and water
sectors. The book concludes by looking at policy implications for
low carbon growth in India.

This book focuses on one of the two G20 tracks, the finance track.
It examines the evolution of the finance track in G20, the
organizational structure of the finance track, and the role of
international organizations in reforming the financial
architecture. It discusses how the agenda is formed and driven by
the political economy of the host country as well as the imperative
of the time. It also documents the finance track themes taken up by
different G20 presidencies over the years. Some of the common
threads between the G20 emerging economies' presidencies in terms
of the finance track themes that the G20 leaders have considered
include financial sector regulation and reform, reform of
international financial institutions, global growth and
macroeconomic policies, international taxation, and financial
inclusion. The book is an excellent resource for the researchers of
international economics as well as for policymakers.
India's economic growth story in the past decade has invited a keen
participation by the global investors, manifest in the increasing
foreign direct investment flows to India especially, since the
mid-2000s. Rise in the direct global inflows has ensured
considerable direct as well as knock-on benefits to India.
Investment by the United States has been prominent in this regard.
This study investigates the socioeconomic impact of American
investment in India and identifies the challenges faced by the
American investors. A multi-sector survey, based on in-person
interviews with the key stakeholders, has been juxtaposed with
relevant secondary data to elucidate the spillovers of the direct
investment by the US. This may serve as an appealing read for an
eclectic audience ranging from academia and research firms,
consulting houses to university graduates.
