520 1 _a"This book deals with the systems, institutions, and outcomes from the interplay of political and economic forces in Indian federalism. It attempts to broaden the conceptual framework for analysing Indian federalism by exploring political elements and institutions and their strategic interaction with fiscal variables." "It further emphasizes the emergence of coalition governments at the Centre, and the increasing importance of regional parties which have brought out the contradictions in the efficient governance of the federation." "This synthesized framework, incorporating economic perspectives on political institutions, more comprehensively than ever attempted before, will be immensely valuable for policymakers, foreign lending agencies, technocrats, journalists, and NGOs. Students of Indian political economy as well as general readers will also find it useful."--BOOK JACKET.
