ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 1. India policy forum 2015/16 / edited by Shekhar Shah, Subir Gokarn, Karthik Muralidharan.. - New Delhi: Sage xxi,236. V.12. ISBN : 978-93-860-6208-6. 330.954 Sh2I Q6 49228

Book Description: The India Policy Forum (IPF) is organized by the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) in New Delhi in partnership with the Brookings Institution, Washington, D.C. It aims to examine India’s economic reforms and its economic transition using policy-relevant empirical research. The IPF comprises an annual international conference in July in New Delhi and the IPF Volume that brings together the conference papers. These papers undergo detailed revisions after the conference based on discussants’ comments at the IPF and the guidance provided by the editors. This book comprises papers and highlights of the discussions from the Twelfth India Policy Forum Conference held on 14–15 July 2015. In particular, this volume of IPF focuses on inflation that has emerged as a leading concern in India. By early 2015 the inflation rate had fallen to 5.2 percent, leading to questions both about how to explain movements in India’s inflation,

and whether this more recent moderation under the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) led by Raghuram Rajan was likely to endure. ** . Economic development ;. Inflation ;. Tax system ; Currency ;.

Book Description: World Development Indicators 2015 provides a compilation of relevant, high-quality, and internationally comparable statistics about global development and the fight against poverty.

Six themes are used to organize indicators—world view, people, environment, economy, states and markets, and global links. As in past editions, World view reviews global progress toward the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and provides key indicators related to poverty. Each of the remaining sections

INTERNATIONAL DEBT 4 International debt statistics / World Bank.. - Washington: World Bank, 2016. xvii,166. (Earlier title: Global development finance and World debt tables). ISBN : 978-1-4648-0681-0. 336.3435091723 W89I Q6 DS49086

Book Description: International Debt Statistics (IDS) 2016 (formerly Global Development Finance) provides statistical tables showing the external debt of 125 developing countries that report public and publicly guaranteed external debt to the World Bank’s Debtor Reporting System (DRS). It also includes tables of key debt ratios for individual reporting countries and the composition of external debt stocks and flows for individual reporting countries and regional and income groups, along with some graphical presentations. IDS 2016 draws on a database maintained by the World Bank External Debt (WBXD) system. Longer time series and more detailed data are available from the World Bank open databases, which contain more than 200 time series indicators, covering the years 1970 to 2014 for most reporting countries, and pipeline data for scheduled debt service payments on existing commitments to 2020. International Debt Statistics 2016 is unique in its coverage of the important trends and issues fundamental to the financing of the developing world.

This report is an indispensable resource for governments, economists, investors, financial consultants, academics, bankers, and the entire development community. In addition, International Debt Statistics will showcase the broader spectrum of debt data collected and compiled by the World Bank. These include the high frequency, quarterly external debt database (QEDS) and the quarterly public sector database (QPSD) developed in partnership with the International Monetary Fund and launched by the World Bank. ** .

Gandolfo, Giancarlo International finance and open economy macroeconomics / by Giancarlo Gandolfo.. - 2. - Heidelberg: Springer, 2016. xxi,681. ISBN : 978-3-662-49860-6. 332.042 G15I Q6 49285

Book Description: This rigorous textbook tames technicalities and makes even the most complex models accessible to researchers. In fact, the coverage is primarily directed to undergraduate students and is mainly confined to graphic analysis and to some elementary algebra. Further, each chapter has its own mathematical appendix, in which (i) the topics treated in the text are examined at a level suitable for advanced undergraduates,

graduates and researchers, and (ii) generalizations and/or topics not treated in the text (including some at the cutting edge of research) are formally examined. The new edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect the latest research on international finance.The present book maintains the same approach, in particular the unique two-tier feature and the ample coverage of topics, including many at the frontiers of research, whose often obscure mathematical aspects are fully clarified in the second tier. **.

Turner, Adair Between debt and the devil: Money, credit, and fixing global finance / by Adair Turner.. - Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2016. xiv,302. ISBN : 978-0-691-16964-4. 332.042 T85B Q6 49263

Book Description: Adair Turner became chairman of Britain's Financial Services Authority just as the global financial crisis struck in 2008, and he played a leading role in redesigning global financial regulation. In this eye-opening book, he sets the record straight about what really caused the crisis. It didn't happen because banks are too big to fail--our addiction to

private debt is to blame. Between Debt and the Devil challenges the belief that we need credit growth to fuel economic growth, and that rising debt is okay as long as inflation remains low. In fact, most credit is not needed for economic growth--but it drives real estate booms and busts and leads to financial crisis and depression. Turner explains why public policy needs to manage the growth and allocation of credit creation, and why debt needs to be taxed as a form of economic pollution. Banks need far more capital, real estate lending must be restricted, and we need to tackle inequality and mitigate the relentless rise of real estate prices. Turner also debunks the big myth about fiat money--the erroneous notion that printing money will lead to harmful inflation. To escape the mess created by past policy errors, we sometimes need to monetize government debt and finance fiscal deficits with central-bank money. Between Debt and the Devil shows why we need to reject the assumptions that private credit is essential to growth and fiat money is inevitably dangerous. Each has its advantages, and each creates risks that public policy must consciously balance. **. International finance ;. Finance ;. Financial institutions ;. Credit ;. Financial crises ;.

WATER SUPPLY 8. Kumar, Dinesh M. Thirsty cities: How Indian cities can meet their water needs / by M. Dinesh Kumar.. - New Delhi: OUP, 2014. xxvii,343. ISBN : 978-0-19-809955-0. 333.91150954 K96T Q4 49284

Book Description: Urban water management is an important challenge for many developing countries of the world, characterized as they are by high development economics, rapid urbanization, and unregulated industrialization. With urban population increasing by 38.1 million from 2001 to 2011, infrastructure in Indian cities, including water supply, has come under enormous pressure. A number of solutions from rainwater harvesting to community participation and public-private partnerships have been suggested. This book argues against these fragmented approaches and presents an Integrated Urban Water Management (IUWM) framework for India. The author elucidates how IUWM takes a comprehensive approach to urban water services, viewing water supply, storm water, and waste water as components of an integrated physical system and recognizes that the physical system sits within an organizational framework and a broader natural landscape. He discusses how the policies for sustainable urban water management will be decided by the type of physical interventions, economic

instruments, and institutional changes required for achieving the goal of IUWM. Since these would change across localities, the policies also will have to be different for different localities. **.
