Contemporary Issues in Trade, Environment and Policy

Description

This volume brings together a series of research papers by young scholars on critical policy issues facing emerging economies like India and how they need to be handled within a liberalized market economy. This is especially relevant at the current juncture, with a new government at the helm making concerted efforts to strengthen Indias manufacturing base and trading network and usher in foreign investments into key sectors of the economy. The various chapters spanning a range of topical issues provide up to date reviews of literature and a glimpse of the wide array of methodological tools used in applied research. There are multi-country as well as country-specific analyses; case-studies based on pima, data as well as secondary data based analyses; studies based on advanced panel data as well as time-series techniques. This book should be of use to post-graduate and research students as well as teachers and practitioners of economics and applied economics fields.
