"The Growth and Transformation of Small Firms in India", along with Rakesh Basant, Keshab Das, K. Ramachandran and Abraham Koshy, Oxford University Press, New Delhi, London, NY, 2001 [Morris, S. (2001b)] This book goes beyond the current paradigm of small industry policy and makes recommendations for not only the development of the sector but for the growth and transformation of the economy. Macroeconomic discrimination against the sector can hardly be corrected by the 'protectionist approach' of the present policy. The study inter alia argues for de-reservation, incentivisation of the credit flow to the sector, aggressive exchange rate and trade policies for energising the small firm sector [View book ]

This paper shows that the characterisation of the East Asian trade strategy can hardly be called 'laissez faire'. The lacunae in the structuralist critique of the Bank's position as in the 'Miracle Report' nevertheless had the lacqunae that it could not reconcile the evidence that the price ratio of exportables to importables in the aggregate in the east asian economies especially in Korea was close to the international ratio. This paper in constructing a 3 sector model of trade shows that the same empircal evidence is consistent with a highly interventionist regime that actively influenced (forced trade) through massive advantages for tradables goods production. 

The second paper argues that the export led strategy would work as well if not better in India. And the key policy is the structural undervaluation of the rupee to create vast pressures for export. The paper also had anticipated the recession of the late nineties, through an analysis of the growth factors in the Indian economy since the early eighties. [Download Paper]
