This volume critiques the much-touted claim that market-friendly economic reform policies in India willtrickle down to the poor and help reduce poverty and deprivation. The author provides an exclusive and empirical perspective in linking employment, poverty and inequality, with regard to the impact of the high-growth performance of the Indian economy since the early 1990s.

K. P. Kannan is Chairman, Laurie Baker Centre for Habitat Studies, Trivandrum, and the Centre of Science and Technology for Rural Development (COSTFORD), Thrissur, Kerala.
