[Pragati] Issue 38 - May 2010 - Why we need a Second Freedom Struggle

[Pragati - The Indian National Interest Review]

Dear Reader

From May 2010, Pragati - The Indian National Interest Review will be published by The Takshashila Institution (a public charitable trust), an independent think tank on India's strategic affairs (http://takshashila.org.in). The intention behind this move is to provide a stronger institutional basis for the magazine: it will continue to feature the distinctive "Fresh, Bold, Indian" writing that you appreciate. 

Today even the phrase "second generation of reforms" has fallen into disuse. The policy discourse has once again reverted into one over state-directed redistribution that once plunged India into mediocrity and despair and risks doing so again. The cover feature of this month's issue argues that India needs a new freedom struggle to deliver economic and social freedom to all its citizens. 

You can download the issue by clicking on this link or by visiting http://is.gd/bQPJr (the link opens a 2.5 MB PDF file). If you have encounter any problem accessing the file, send us an message and we'll email it to you.
