 Assessing India's economic reforms
A major implication thus of these meso-economic reforms is a need to create a new institutional and financial architecture for the management of the Indian economy to sustain a full-fledged modern market economy, where stability, predictability and transparency of policies are seen to be of fundamental importance by foreign investors.
These reforms should be designed also to have India playing its rightful role in the world so as to provide growth and stability to the global economy, an aspiration China is meticulously working to fulfil.
But since the rent-losers from economic reforms are entrenched and organised, and the gainers are not, the legitimacy of reforms is being eroded every day.

The intent of the reformers was to change the basic conditions of the economic system, so that the self-interest that had pushed managers of factories and research institutes toward compartmentalization, duplication, and hoarding of resources would henceforth push them toward cooperation, division of labor, and orientation toward the needs of the market.
Because these reforms represented a radical departure from the procedures developed since the 1950s, the leadership anticipated that their implementation would be slow, and it planned to phase them in over a number of years.

 Issue 23 – China's Governance Crisis
Chinas current crisis results from fundamental contradictions in the reforms that it has pursued over the past two decades - a period that has seen the amazing transformation of the communist regime from one that was infatuated with class struggle to one obsessed by growth rates.
The slow-brewing crisis of governance may not cause an imminent collapse of the regime, but the accumulation of severe strains on the political system will eventually weigh down Chinas economic modernisation as poor governance makes trade and investment more costly and more risky.
The incompatibilities between Chinas current political system, however, and the essential requirements of the rule of law, a market economy and an open society have not been washed away by waves of foreign investment.
