  • Prosperity Amidst Poverty and Inequality: Panel 4 | The New School
  • Reactions and Responses from State and Society Panel 4 Prosperity Amidst Poverty and Inequality focuses on the striking new phenomenon of prosperity amidst poverty and inequality in India and China. Three decades of sustained economic reform has generated very high rates of aggregate economic growth, structural diversification and technological change in both countries, while also simultaneously exacerbating social, sectoral and spatial inequalities and igniting fierce conflicts over access to services (education, health), resources (employment, land and water) and the governing frames of politics and culture. Moreover, increasing evidence of gross entrenched corruption has accompanied the process of dynamic economic growth in both countries, creating widespread demands for greater moral integrity, political accountability and social justice. Hence in recent years the national governments of India and China have enacted a series of policies, measures and reforms -- manifested in India through a series of progressive legislative acts that use the language of 'rights' and in China by such notions as that of a 'harmonious society' -- that seek to expand the political liberties, social opportunities and economic security of vulnerable citizens. The aim of this proposed conference is to provide a systematic multidisciplinary investigation of the causes, character and consequences of prosperity amidst inequality in India and China. *Location: Theresa Lang Center 55 W 13th st ...
