The G20 Macroeconomic Agenda India and the Emerging Economies Edited by: Parthasarathi Shome Parthasarathi Shome is Adviser (Minister of State) to the Finance Minister, Government of India and Chairman, Tax Administration Reform Commission.

The G20 Macroeconomic Agenda India and the Emerging Economies Edited by: Parthasarathi Shome As the premier forum for global economic governance, G20 was successful in warding off the global economic crisis of 2008–09 and preventing it from becoming a full-blown depression. In its wake, G20 initiated a series of financial sector reforms and managed to achieve unprecedented global cooperation, by bringing together the G7 and newly emerging economies, for improved global macroeconomic management. As the global economy recovered in 2010, G20 expanded to include a development agenda in particular, achieving food security, controlling commodity price volatility, recycling global savings to boost infrastructure investment, and enhancing energy and environmental sustainability.

This book assesses the progress of the G20 with a focus on India. It discusses the role India has played in the success of the G20 process and, more importantly, delineates the possible barriers to India’s enhanced involvement in the G20, and in global governance in general.
