  • Dr. Isher Judge Ahluwalia on HER
    Remembering Dr. Isher Judge Ahluwalia ON HER BIRTH ANNIVERSARY Isher Judge Ahluwalia was inspired by issues of urbanisation and governance Rajat Kathuria | Indian Express | September 29, 2020 For a scholar of her stature and with all the exceptional achievements to boot, she could well have rested on her laurels. There was nothing left to prove. But that was not Isher. Isher last public appearance on ICRIER's platform was in February this year at the launch of Montek Singh Ahluwalia’s memoir, Backstage. When the phone rang to inform me of the passing away of Isher Judge Ahluwalia, former chairperson of ICRIER and my former boss, the world stopped, if only for an instant, as if someone had pressed a pause button. The poignancy of the moment was accompanied by a flashback of memories of a smiling Isher with perfectly groomed salt and pepper hair, announcing with grace, dignity, poise, charm and brilliance, the start of another conference at ICRIER. Her public persona was larger than life. Behind the exterior, there was also an Isher who was compassionate, supportive, loyal and who possessed almost a childlike desire to learn about issues that drew her interest. My close association with Isher began fittingly with a conference in April 2012. I was to take over as director and chief executive of ICRIER later that year. She decided to “induct” me at an ICRIER event in Vigyan Bhavan where the then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was the chief guest. An updated edition of the festschrift, India’s Economic Reforms and Development: Essays for Manmohan Singh, co-edited by Isher was to be presented to him.

It becomes necessary…to have some organisation apart, some independent organisation, to consider the problem…As [NCAER] started off in a good way,…it is not at all to be surprised at… that it has succeeded during these two or three years that it has been in existence.” The Prime Minister of India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru Laying the foundation stone for NCAER’s current building, October 31, 1959 “This institute is a great national asset, and it is obligatory for all those who work here, or who are associated with this magnificent institute, to never lose sight of the vision of the founding fathers of NCAER.” The Prime Minister of India, Dr Manmohan Singh Laying the foundation stone for the new NCAER Centre, July 27, 2013 These words, spanning almost six decades, span the legacy of NCAER, from 1956 to 2013. Six decades in the life of a nation is a long time.

Rakesh Mohan, Director-General of the National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) in the late 1990s, received a call one day from Montek Ahluwalia, then at the Planning Commission, requesting him to meet a visitor to New Delhi from the University of Chicago, Raghuram Rajan. Montek had earlier met Martin Feldstein from Harvard, then also President of the National Bureau of Economic Research, at the Jackson Economic Policy Symposium hosted by the Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, in late August every year.1 In the beautiful settings of the Grand Teton National Park, Montek had wondered why US economists had so little interest in policy developments in India.

  • India's Open-Economy Policy (Routledge Contemporary South
    India’s Open-Economy Policy This book is the first major exploration of Indian political economy using a con- structivist approach. Arguing that India’s open-economy policy was made, justi- fied, and continued on the basis of the idea of openness more than its tangible effect, the book explains what sustained the idea of openness, what philosophy, interpretations of history, and international context gave it support, justification, and persuasive force. Drawing on a wide range of contemporary and historical sources, and going as far back as the nineteenth century, the author reconstructs the way in which Indian policymakers have interpreted economic priorities, perceived success and failure, and evaluated the destiny of their nation. By the 1990s, their imperatives increasingly highlighted a sense of rivalry, especially with China, and globalism, a desire to play a strong role in world affairs. The book shows how a sense of nationalist urgency was created through globalism and rivalry, allowing policy- makers to privilege international needs over domestic political demands, replace economic independence with interdependence as a priority, and ensure that the broad basis of India’s openness could not be challenged effectively even though certain policies faced severe opposition. This book will be of interest to those working on International Political Economy, Globalization, Economic History, Public Policy, and South Asian politics. Jalal Alamgir is Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Massachusetts, Boston, specializing
