India’s resurgence has renewed global interest in the geopolitical implications of India’s economic rise. Sanjaya Baru’s book explores India’s evolving geoeconomic relations with the West and with Asia, particularly China, in the aftermath of the global financial crisis of 2008-09. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese essays analyse the influence of business and trade on foreign policy, India’s approach to multilateralism and the relevance of regional trade integration for the Indian economy and South Asia. The essays were written after Baru served a term in the Prime Minister’s Office in New Delhi as a key advisor to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh during India’s negotiation of a civil nuclear energy agreement with the United States. They show the author’s intimate knowledge of India’s external economic policies, acquired from his vantage position as an influential newspaper editor and an advisor to the Prime Minister.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"morecontent\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"d_normalheder\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePraise for this book\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has become almost a settled view that by 2050, India’s GDP will become either the second or third largest in the world and the weight of India in geo-economics and in geopolitics will be increasingly felt. Sanjaya Baru’s collection of essays on India and the World provides the reader with a sense of this unfolding story. There is an inner consistency in his holistic view of India’s economic development which is fundamentally dependent on improvement in the education and skills base of large numbers of human beings. Unlike the US and China, India sometimes comes across as not having ambitions to be a world power, but it will become one almost despite itself and the book helps to explain why.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e— George Yeo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFormer Minister for Foreign Affairs, \u003cbr\u003eTrade \u0026amp; Industry, Singapore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSanjaya Baru is amongst the pioneers in using the frame of geo-economics to explore with practised skill, the emerging global political, economic and security landscape and India’s place in it.
