Summary

This collection of papers in honor of the renowned development economist K.N. Raj includes papers by Amartya Sen, T.N. Srinivasan, Pranab Bardhan, Kaushik Basu, Shigeru Ishikawa, Edmar Bacha, Debraj Ray, and Amit Bhaduri. These, and the many other distinguished authors included in this volume

The essays fall into three sections: development theory, comparative development experience, and Indian development experience. The majority of

development economists, but also by policy planners and practitioners.
