The library connects us with the insight and knowledge, painfully extracted from Nature, of the greatest minds that ever were, with the best teachers, drawn from the entire planet and from all our history, to instruct us without tiring, and to inspire us to make our own contribution to the collective knowledge of the human species. I think the health of our civilization, the depth of our awareness about the underpinnings of our culture and our concern for the future can all be tested by how well we support our libraries. —Cosmos Carl SAGAN

xxi,225 p.

ISBN : 978-981-283-645-8.

330.015195 B29E P9 47416

Book Description: Model Building is the

most fruitful area of economics, designed to

solve real-world problems using all available

methods such as mathematical, computational

and analytical, without distinction. Wherever

necessary, we should not be reluctant to

develop new techniques, whether

mathematical or computational. That is the

philosophy of this volume.

4

The volume is divided into three distinct parts:

Methods, Theory and Applications. The

Methods section is in turn subdivided into

Mathematical Programming and Econometrics

and Adaptive Control System, which are

widely used in econometric analysis. The

impacts of fiscal policy in a regime with

independent monetary authority and dynamic

models of environmental taxation are

considered.

In the section on “Modelling Business

Organization”, a model of a Japanese

organization is presented. Furthermore, a

model suitable for an efficient budget

management of a health service unit by

applying goal programming method is

analyzed, taking into account various socio-

economic factors. This is followed by a

section on “Modelling National Economies”,

in which macroeconometric models for the EU

member countries are analyzed, to find

instruments that stabilize inflation with

coordinated action.

Book Description: Spatial panel models have

panel data structures to capture spatial

interactions across spatial units and over time.

There are static as well as dynamic models.

Estimation of Spatial Panels provides some

recent developments on the specification and

estimation of such models. The first part

considers estimation for static models. The

second part is devoted to the estimation for

spatial dynamic panels, where both stable and

unstable dynamic models with fixed effects

will be considered. The estimation methods

are illustrated with two relevant empirical

studies, one on regional growth and the other

on market integration.

Foundation, 2013. 231 p.

ISBN : 9789332700864.

330.95456 D36D Q3 DS47423

Book Description: During the last few years,

Delhi has experienced significant prosperity

and expanding employment opportunities

along with considerable improvements in

infrastructure, basic services and amenities.

5

Home to about 17 million people, the city

attracts thousands of migrants every year, who

arrive in search of livelihoods and educational

opportunities. Delhi has emerged as a sort of

microcosm of the entire country, unmatched in

characteristics and spirit by any other city of

India.

The Delhi Human Development Report 2013

discusses the various aspects of the prevailing

human development scenario in Delhi,

including employment, livelihood, educational

opportunities, healthcare, basic services and

amenities, as well as the issue of public safety

that has been a source of widespread concern

in the recent past.

While encompassing both the achievements

and emerging challenges that constantly

confront this vibrant city, the Report not only

relies on the latest statistics and available

information, but also analyses the findings of a

large survey of about 8000 households. This

was carried out to identify the perceptions and

aspirations of the citizens belonging to various

groups. The Report documents the tremendous

positive changes taking place in Delhi in

numerous spheres, signifying the dynamics of

its socio-economic development along with

the monumental task of ensuring that the

benefits of prosperity accrue to all, especially

the less privileged sections of its society. In

essence, therefore, this Report is both a mirror

to the city and an endeavor to promote

inclusion and equity at various levels.

Book Description: In the last two decades,

institutions became forcefully rooted in the

mainstream of economic research. Professor

Sen’s excellent and timely collection brings

together major contributions to this literature

(and process). It conveniently allows us to

revisit these ideas. This is a must-have volume

to any economist interested in institutions and

development.’

This comprehensive two-volume collection

brings together seminal contributions by

leading scholars on institutions and

governance in developing countries. Volume

one analyses key theoretical perspectives on

institutions and the empirical evidence of the

role of institutions in economic development.

Volume two further explores the literature,

with important contributions in governance,

the historical evidence on why institutions

matter, formal and informal institutions and

the key policy issues that originate from the

literature.

Along with a new and original introduction,

this essential collection is an indispensable

tool for scholars and practitioners alike.

Book Description: The highly prized ability

to make financial plans with some certainty

about the future comes from the core fields of

economics. In recent years the availability of

more data, analytical tools of greater

precision, and ex post studies of business

ECONOMIC HISTORY

Economic history of early modern India / by

Tirthankar Roy.-- London: Routledge, 2013.

x,174 p.

ISBN : 978-0-415-69064-5.

330.954029 R81E Q3 47425

Book Description: The death of the Mughal

emperor Aurangzeb in 1707 until the

annexation of Maratha territories by the

British East India Company in 1818 was a

period of transition for the economy of India.

This book focuses on these transitions, and

shows how a study of this period of Indian

history contributes to a deeper understanding

of the long-run patterns of economic change in

India.

Momentous changes occurred in business and

politics in India during the eighteenth century

- the expansion of trade with Europe and the

collapse of the Mughal Empire, resulting in

the formation of a number of independent

states. This book analyses how these two

forces were interrelated, and how they went on

to change livelihoods and material wellbeing

in the region. Using detailed studies of

markets, institutions, rural and urban

livelihoods, and the standard of living, it

develops a new perspective on the history of

eighteenth century India, one that places

business at the centre, rather than the

transition to colonial rule.

This book is the first systematic account of the

economic history of early modern India, and

an essential reference for students and scholars

EQUALITY

13 Identity, inequity and inequality in India

and China: Governing difference / edited by

Ravinder Kaur and Ayo Wahlberg.--

London: Routledge, 2014. xi,185 p.

(Thirdworlds).

ISBN : 978-0-415-85969-1.

305.954051 K16I Q4 47427

Book Description: This volume explores how

difference is constructed, manifested,

mobilised and obscured in socially uneven

societies, particularly those fuelled by

neoliberal economic growth in the recent

years.

The book approaches difference as a double

edged concept that allows one to make sense

of the tensions that are played out between

‘cosmopolitan’ convergence and

‘multicultural’ diversity, between expanding

middle classes and increasingly

disenfranchised poor groups, between the

global and the local. The chapters in this

volume present a series of empirical

explorations of how difference is articulated,

desired, levelled, governed and even subverted

in the socio-economically uneven landscapes

of India and China. They examine how

difference emerges out of daily practice,

categorisation processes, dividing practices,

nation building efforts and identity projects.

Through these empirical studies, we see how

difference is articulated along a number of

axes: differentiations of groups or persons

according to hierarchies of

superiority/inferiority; the demarcation of

difference as something that is potentially

disruptive and therefore in need of

containment; the ‘celebration’ of difference as

diversity, and finally, the ways in which

difference comes to be internalised in the

shaping of individual identities. Another

common theme that binds a number of

contributions is the exploration of the role of

the state in constructing and controlling these

differences, and the ways in which these

interventions rearrange the social-political

landscapes

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT

16 Federal reform Strategies: Lessons from

Asia and Australia / edited by Stephen Howes

and M. Govinda Rao.-- New Delhi : OUP,

2013. x,314 p.

ISBN : 978-0-19-809200-1.

321.02 H83F Q3 47426

Book Description: In a federal polity, reforms

related to economic integration, deregulation,

or natural resource management cannot be

fully effective without the active participation

of subnational governments. While most of the

available literature in this area focuses on

reform of federalism, this volume is about

reform through federalism. It explores the

ways in which central governments can

motivate, influence, and ensure the

coordination of subnational policies.

9

Drawing from a range of case studies, mainly

from India and Australia, the essays analyses

various mechanisms to promote reform such

as:

earmarked funding from central

to subnational governments,

award of incentive funding if

certain reforms are undertaken,

cross-government agreements, and

the centralization of power from the

subnational level to the

central government.

They examine both success stories as well

as failures, and build a typology of

strategies available to a central government to

pursue economic reform in a federal setting.

Insightful and policy-oriented, this volume is a

must-read for students and scholars of

economics, public finance, development

economics, as well as policymakers

(Studies in fiscal federalism and state-local

finance).

ISBN : 978-1-78254-429-6.

352.14 L13C Q3 47434

Book Description: In the efficient delivery of

local public services, size matters. Many

countries around the world have vertical

government structures that are perceived as

inefficient because of their high levels of

jurisdictional fragmentation. This timely

volume examines the different strategies used

to address local government fragmentation and

their observed results and consequences.

Expert contributors in economics and political

science offer a comprehensive breakdown of

the issue of local jurisdiction fragmentation

and provide recommendations for successful

policy reform. Topics discussed include

economies of scale, the costs and benefits of

voluntary and forced amalgamation programs,

the correlation between government size and

corruption, privatization, and inter-municipal

cooperation. A combination of theory and

empirical evidence provides depth and makes

this book an invaluable addition to the

literature.

Economists, public administrators and

political scientists will find much of interest in

this innovative volume, as will professors,

students and international institutions with an

interest in local government structure and

reform

Book Description: Although most rationales

for fiscal decentralization are derived from

developed countries, decentralization has

become a growing trend in the developing

world. This has brought about fundamental

changes in the paths of development, both at a

local level and in intergovernmental

relationships. This book uses detailed

statistical data from three developing countries

in South East Asia to provide an empirical

analysis of the influence of fiscal conditions

on development, with a focus on regional

inequalities and health services.

ISBN : 9781847184887.

352.42140954 Oo9F P8 47292

Book Description: The literature on fiscal

decentralisation in India is few and far

between. The collection of papers in this

volume written by scholars who have done

scholarly works on the theme seeks to fill the

gap relating to the state sub-state level fiscal

decentralisation in India. While the first paper

by Anwar Shah, an internationally known

expert on fiscal federalism, provides a general

backdrop relating to fiscal decentralisation and

macro management, all other papers critically

review the various dimensions of fiscal

decentralisation emerging in India since the

implementation of the 73rd/74th constitutional

amendments by the state governments. Two

papers focus exclusively on Kerala which has

won world-wide acclaim for its innovative

initiatives in decentralsation.

Few would doubt that the conditions of

governance have changed-and continue to

change-as the early 21st century seems to

enter a period of profound uncertainty. Yet, at

the same time, the world seems alive with a

cacophony of approaches-old and new-on how

to improve governance and, ultimately, policy

outcomes. This collection-the first in a series

of annual editions-seeks to address the

implications of the current state of the world

in terms of "good governance", i.e. the

effective, efficient, and reliable set of

legitimate institutions and actors dedicated to

dealing with matters of public concern, be it in

the field of financial markets (the focus of this

edition), health care, security, or migration,

and across local, national and international

levels. Researchers at The Hertie School of

Governance (Berlin, Germany) and other

experts examine the current state of

governance challenges and innovations from a

variety of inter-disciplinary perspectives. This

11

edition features a special set of chapters on the

challenges of financial and fiscal governance,

the tradeoffs faced by governance actors, and

the new arrangements that have emerged or

are required to not only address the ongoing

crisis but also ensure greater stability into the

future. This special section is complemented

by chapters introducing basic concepts and

models; exploring other global challenges and

the reasons behind seemingly lackluster

responses to them and highlighting the need

for responsible sovereignty; conceptualizing

governance innovation and introducing key

examples; and assessing existing indicators of

governance, while proposing a new

framework for collecting, interpreting and

applying governance-related information.

Open economy macroeconomics in

developing countries / by Carlos A. Vegh.--

Cambridge: CUP, 2013. x,899 p.

ISBN : 978-0-262-01890-6.

339.52091724 V52O Q3 47438

Book Description: This rigorous and

comprehensive textbook develops a basic

small open economy model and shows how it

can be extended to answer many important

macroeconomic questions that arise in

emerging markets and developing economies,

particularly those regarding monetary, fiscal,

and exchange rate issues. Eschewing the

complex calibrated models on which the field

of international finance increasingly relies, the

book teaches the reader how to think in terms

of simple models and grasp the fundamentals

of open economy macroeconomics.

After analyzing the standard intertemporal

small open economy model, the book

introduces frictions such as imperfect capital

markets, intertemporal distortions, and

nontradable goods, into the basic model in

order to shed light on the economy’s response

to different shocks. The book then introduces

money into the model to analyze the real

effects of monetary and exchange rate policy.

It then applies these theoretical tools to a

variety of important macroeconomic issues

relevant to developing countries (and, in a

world of continuing financial crisis, to

industrial countries as well), including the use

of a nominal interest rate as a main policy

instrument, the relative merits of flexible and

predetermined exchange rate regimes, and the

targeting of “real anchors.” Finally, the book

analyzes in detail specific topics such as

inflation stabilization, “dollarization,” balance

of payments crises, and, inspired by recent

events, financial crises. Each chapter includes

boxes with relevant empirical evidence and

ends with exercises. The book is suitable for

use in graduate courses in development

economics, international finance, and

macroeconomics

Book Description:

Offers an in-depth and systematic analysis of

foreign direct investment (FDI) policies and

flows by country and for South Asia as a

whole

Critically examines the determinants of FDI

inflows and impact of FDI at both aggregate

and disaggregate levels

Presents a comprehensive analysis on future

reforms and challenges of attracting more FDI

During the 1990s, the governments of South

Asian countries acted as ‘facilitators’ to attract

FDI. As a result, the inflow of FDI increased.

However, to become an attractive FDI

destination as China, Singapore, or Brazil,

South Asia has to improve the local conditions

of doing business. This book, based on

research that blends theory, empirical

evidence, and policy, asks and attempts to

answer a few core questions relevant to FDI

policy in South Asian countries: Which major

reforms have succeeded? What are the factors

that influence FDI inflows? What has been the

impact of FDI on macroeconomic

performance? Which policy priorities/reforms

needed to boost FDI are pending? These

questions and answers should interest policy

makers, academics, and all those interested in

FDI in the South Asian region and in India,

Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan.

Book Description: Tim Harford returns as the

Undercover Economist with an even bigger

target in his sights: to explain how the whole

world economy works.

A million readers bought The Undercover

Economist to get the lowdown on how

economics works on a small scale, in our

everyday lives. Since then, economics has

become big news. Crises, austerity, riots,

bonuses - all are in the headlines all the time.

But how does this large-scale economic world

really work? What would happen if we

cancelled everyone's debt? How do you create

a job? Will the BRIC countries take over the

world? Asking - among many other things --

what the future holds for the Euro, why the

banks are still paying record bonuses and

where government borrowing will take us, in

The Undercover Economist Strikes Back, Tim

Harford returns with his trademark clarity and

wit to explain what's really going on - and

what it means for us all.

Easy money: Evolution of money from

Vivek Kaul.-- New Delhi: Sage Publications,

ISBN : 978-81-321-1342-3.

332.4 K16E Q3 47424

Book Description: A man hears what he

wants to hear and disregards the rest,” wrote

singer and songwriter Paul Simon some

decades back. Books on the current financial

crisis which started in late 2008 are a tad like

that. Until now they have tended to deal with

certain aspects of the crisis without looking at

the bigger picture of what really went wrong.

That bigger picture of the ongoing financial

crisis has now started to evolve. Easy

Money captures this big picture.

The history of money and the financial system

as it has evolved over the centuries stand at the

heart of this endeavor. It explores the idea that

the evolution of money over centuries has led

to an easy money policy being followed by

governments and central banks across the

world, which in turn has fueled humongous

Ponzi schemes, which have now started to

unravel, bringing the whole world on the brink

of a financial disaster. The book also explains

how the lessons of the financial crisis have

still not been learned, and in trying to deal

with it, governments across the world are

making the same mistakes which led to the

current crisis in the first place.

Theory of money and financial institutions /

by Martin Shubik.-- Cambridge: CUP, 2010.

xiii,668 p.

V.3

ISBN : 978-0-262-51803-1.

332.4 Sh9T Q0.3 47417

14

Book Description: This is the third and last

volume of Martin Shubik's exposition of his

vision of "mathematical institutional

economics"—a term he coined in 1959 to

describe the theoretical underpinnings needed

for the construction of an economic dynamics.

The goal is to develop a process-oriented

theory of money and financial institutions that

reconciles micro- and macroeconomics, using

strategic market games and other game-

theoretic methods.

There is as yet no general dynamic counterpart

to the elegant and mathematically well-

developed static theory of general equilibrium.

Shubik's paradigm serves as an intermediate

step between general equilibrium and full

dynamics. General equilibrium provides

valuable insights on relationships in a closed,

friction-free economic structure. Shubik aims

to open up this limited structure to the rich

environment of sociopolitical economy

without dispensing with conceptual continuity.

Volume 1 of this work deals with a one-period

approach to economic exchange with money,

debt, and bankruptcy. Volume 2 explores the

new economic features that arise when we

consider multiperiod finite- and infinite-

horizon economies. Volume 3 considers the

specific roles of financial institutions and

government, aiming to provide the link

between the abstract study of invariant

economic and financial functions and the ever-

changing institutions that provide these

functions. The concept of minimal financial

institutions is stressed as a means to connect

function with form in a parsimonious manner

ISBN : 978-81-321-0979-2.

331.25220954 Sa1P Q3 47428

Book Description: Changing population

dynamics have challenged the socio-economic

stability of nations globally. This has brought

into focus pension reform as one of the most

critical socio-economic-political agendas.

Against this background, this book gives a

comprehensive account of the Indian pension

system and the ongoing reforms.

Pension Reform in India discusses the current

National Pension System (NPS) structure and

architecture extensively and also throws light

on the alternative old-age financial-security

schemes available in the country. To enable a

better understanding of the critical issues of

the hour, the author provides insights into

pension reforms in many emerging-economy

countries.

Drawing upon his years of experience in this

field and also from exhaustive research of data

and publications of international agencies and

eminent scholars, the author proposes methods

for designing a pension system that is both

viable and robust.

ISBN : 978-1-4094-6307-8.

338.272809667 Ap4G Q3 47421

Book Description: Oil exploration in the

developing world has been and continues to be

a high profile and high risk activity attracting

media coverage and stimulating much debate.

In Governance of the Petroleum Sector in an

Emerging Developing Economy, Professor

Kwaku Appiah-Adu has assembled an edited

volume that provides insight into critical

aspects of this highly sensitive activity.

Professor Appiah-Adu’s starting point is

Ghana, where he has been closely involved in

national policy-making. The book makes

comparisons between that African country and

others as diverse as Trinidad and Tobago, and

Norway. The contributors, global experts in

their respective fields, explore five critical

themes and propose strategies for progress in

each.

You will find an in-depth analysis relating to:

turning oil and gas wealth into sustainable and

equitable development; entrenching

transparency and stakeholder engagement;

effective management of the oil and gas

sector; and safeguarding security and the

environment. Finally, country specific models

and lessons, particularly for Ghana and other

African oil producing nations, are offered.

This book serves as reference for business

practitioners, policy makers, scholars, students

and anyone interested in gaining insight into

the oil and gas sector, particularly as it

pertains to Ghana and other African petroleum

producing nations, with lessons drawn from

the global arena and international best

practice.

Book Description: Handbook of Public

economics, Volume 5, research scholars

provide context and order to new research

about mechanisms that underlie both public

finance theories and applications. These

fundamental subjects follow the recent steady

movement away from rational decision-

making and toward more personalized

approaches to tax generation and expenditure,

especially in terms of the use of psychological

methods and financial incentives. Closely

scrutinized subjects include new research in

empirical (instead of theoretical) public

finance, the methods for measuring taxes (both

in revenue generation and expenditure), and

the roles that taxes play in specific settings,

such as emerging economies, urban settings,

charitable giving, and among political entities

(cities, countries, states, countries).

Contributors look at both the tax and

expenditure sides of public finance,

emphasizing recent influences that psychology

16

and philosophy have exerted in economics

with articles on behavioral finance, charitable

giving, and dynamic taxation. To a field

enjoying rapid growth, their articles bring

context and order, illuminating the

mechanisms that underlie both public finance

theories and applications. This title focuses on

new approaches to both revenue generation

and expenditures in public finance. It presents

summaries of subjects in public economics

that stretch from methodologies to

applications

xiii,239 p.

ISBN : 978-0-85793-673-8.

336.39015118 C86M Q1 47291

Book Description: The composition of

government expenditure varies considerably

across countries. The aim of this book is to

explore the choice of expenditure using a

range of modelling approaches. The models

allow for different economic environments,

involving the types of expenditure considered,

the time period of analysis and the behavior of

individuals. The composition of expenditure is

examined using majority voting and public

finance frameworks, where the latter involves

maximization of a social welfare function

involving a trade-off between equity and

efficiency. Special attention is given to

expenditure on transfer payments, public

goods and education. Empirical analyses are

also carried out, using data for a wide range of

countries, where potential orders of magnitude

of various components of the models are

obtained. The models help in considering

important factors and the inter-relationships

involved. In particular, a synthesis is provided

which allows special consideration of the role

of basic inequality in influencing expenditure

patterns.

The book will be of considerable value to

research scholars interested in public

economics.

Book Description: Rural India is undergoing

a sweeping transformation. The narratives

vary from rural resurgence and expanding

consumption to conflicts, poverty and distress.

In this complex and multi-layered context, the

India Rural Development Report 2012/13

Delves into various aspects of rural

development. The Report is unique in that it

provides a comprehensive current picture of

rural India and brings together into a single

compilation a review and analysis of the:

evolving rural economy and its

implications on social relations;

contours of regional inequality, social

and economic deprivation;

inequalities in access to education,

healthcare and physical infrastructure;

changing nature of livelihoods with

commercialization and smallholder

farms and growing non-farm

opportunities;

sustainability of natural resources, so

critical to rural livelihoods, and the

conflicts over resources; and

Changing role of the state and local

self-governance.

The Report also reviews all major central

government rural programmes and schemes

and, in particular, provides an in-depth

assessment of the flagship rural employment

guarantee programme, MGNREGA.

The Report will be of interest because it:

covers debates on topical issues;

provides empirical analyses;

synthesizes literature across a spectrum

of issues;

presents inspiring stories and

innovative models to show what works

and what does not;

suggests policy directions; and

Provides a comprehensive rural

database.

This Report has been prepared by IDFC

Foundation, in collaboration with network

partners CESS, IRMA, IGIDR, and with

contributions from other researchers, experts

and civil society organisations working on the

ground. It will be an invaluable resource for

336.2 Or3T Q3 47429

Book Description: Tax Administration 2013

(formerly the Comparative Information

Series), produced by the Forum on Tax

Administration, is a unique and

comprehensive survey of tax administration

systems and practices across 52 advanced and

emerging economies (including all OECD,

EU, and G20 members). Its starting point is

the premise that revenue bodies can be better

informed and work more effectively together

given a broad understanding of the

administrative context in which each operates.

However, its information content is also likely

to be of interest to certain external parties (e.g.

academics, external audit agencies, regional

tax bodies, and international bodies providing

technical assistance).

The series identifies some of the fundamental

elements of modern revenue bodies and uses

data, analysis and country examples to identify

key trends, comparative levels of performance,

recent developments and examples of good

practice.

This fifth edition describes institutional setups,

organisational arrangements and reforms,

aspects of strategic management and human

resource management, resources for tax

administration, important areas of operational

performance, the use of technology, and

elements of the legislative and administrative

framework for tax administration across the 52

economies covered by the series. There is also

a new section dealing with revenue bodies’

support of tax intermediaries.

336.20952 B82P Q3 47439

Book Description: This volume of essays

explores the history of the U.S. tax mission to

Japan during the occupation following World

War II. Under General MacArthur, economist

Carl S. Shoup led the mission with the charge

of framing a tax system for Japan designed to

strengthen democracy and accelerate

economic recovery. The volume examines the

sources, conduct, and effects of the mission

and situates the mission within the history of

international financial and fiscal reform. The

book begins by establishing the context of

progressive social investigations of taxation,

including Shoup's earlier tax missions to

France and Cuba. It then goes on to explore

the Japanese background to the Shoup mission

and the process by which American and

Japanese tax experts shaped their

recommendations. The book then assesses and

explains the mission's accomplishments in the

context of the political economies of the

United States and Japan. It concludes by

analyzing the global implications of the

mission, which became iconic among

international tax reformers.
