It emodies integration of international markets for goods, services, technology, finance and labour and also impringes upon the process of structural change underpinned by transformation from agriculture to an industrial economy, with critical implications and concomitants for growth, equity and poverty. It may be stated that there has been increasing pressure both nationally and internationally to offer the economics demand pursuit of the shift from state to market, based forces which will effect the relationship ranging from resource endowments to the dynamics of growth, use of surplus, agriculture and industry and interactions with reference to different socioeconomic groups and changes brought by liberalization and globalization.

In this book, an attempt has been made to examine the impact of globalizations and liberalization on poverty, with special reference to developing countries like India.

The nature of influence of liberalizations and globalization on the trends of trade transformation and utilization of resources has also been dealt with. A critical appraisal of the policies and programmes pertaining to poverty at different levels has also been attempted and the progress achieved has been reviewed.
