Description: Crisis and Predation : India, Covid-19, and Global Finance, Paperback by Research Unit for Political Economy (COR), ISBN 1583679243, ISBN-13 9781583679241, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This book explores the economic impact of the COVID-19 lockdown in India and how global investors and top Indian corporate groups have benefited from the resulting depression. It describes how India's economy was in a depression before the pandemic; how the government imposed the most stringent lockdown measures in the world and its severe impact on the economy; how the government has barely spent to alleviate the impact on people; how this originates in the underlying fact that global financial interests oppose expansion of government spending by India; how the government was faced with a choice to either defy the pressure of global finance and address the basic needs of its people or to submit to the regime of foreign finance, and chose the latter; the impact on the international economic and political crisis; and the hardships imposed by withholding government spending.
