SAST 1600 - India in Global Perspective

The course will not be a conventional “introduction” to India which customarily emphasizes cultural history. Though there will be a short section at the beginning of the course that provides an overview of India’s history, we will quickly move, after 6 class meetings, to the post-independence era, and focus in on the period since 1990, when India took steps to reform its economic policies and re-set its relationships with other world powers
