7. Conclusions
4. Globalization
• A process:
– through which an increasingly free flow of
ideas, people, goods, services and capital would lead to the
integration of economies and societies.
• It is characterized by:
– an accelerated flow of trade, capital, and information, as well as
mobility of individuals across geographical borders.
• It reflects:
– comprehensive level of interaction than that has occurred in the
past, suggesting something beyond the word “international”.
• It implies:
– a diminishing importance of national borders and strengthening of
identities, that stretch beyond those rooted in a limited locale in terms
of particular country or region.
5. Globalization
Common misconception that
it is a 20th century phenomenon
6. 1. Globalization - Past
Globalization – Phase I
India was a prime mover for Globalization
Ancient: 326 BC
Ancient: 1st century CE
Alexander’s invasion Roman and Greek: Ptolemaic period. Trade for gold, silk & spice
7. 1. Globalization - Past
Globalization – Phase I
Medieval: Silk road & Spice Route
Routes blocked by Ottoman empire in 1453, spurring the age of exploration
8. 1. Globalization - Past
Globalization – Phase I
Discovery of much of the world was spurred by search for sea-routes to India
• Spice Trade – In the search for India:
– 1497: Vasco da Gama [Portugal] - India
(Calicut)
– 1492: Christopher Columbus [Spain] –
America
– 1500: Pedro Alvares Cabral [Portugal] –
Brazil
• European-India companies

10. 2. India
90’s Liberalization
• India opened up the economy in the early
nineties following a major crisis that led by a
foreign exchange crunch, dragged the
economy close to defaulting on loans.
• Major measures initiated as a part of the
liberalisation and globalisation strategy in the
early nineties included:
– scrapping of the industrial licensing regime,
– reduction in the number of areas reserved for
the public sector,
– amendment of the monopolies and the
restrictive trade practices act,
– start of the privatisation programme,
– reduction in tariff rates and change over to
market determined exchange rates.
11. 2. India
Globalization
• A metric frequently used to
measure the degree of a country’s
global integration is the ratio of India's global integration
Export+Import/GDP Two way(capital+current) flows/GDP
external trade to GDP 120%
109%
– ratio has gone up over four 100%
times, from 8 per cent of GDP in
1972 to 37 per cent in 2011 80%
• A more complete measure of a 60%
country’s global integration is the
37%
two way flow of goods and finance 40%
in and out of a country. 20% 14%
8%
– ratio has moved up nearly eight
times in these four decades, from 0%
14 per cent in 1972 to 109 per 1972-73 2010-2011 1972-73 2010-2011
cent in 2011
• This means that India’s trade
integration has been deep; but its
financial integration has been
deeper.
12. 2. India
Inward FDI
• Enjoyed the second highest growth in foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows in the world during
2011
• India stands as the fourth most attractive destination for FDI in E&Y's global ranking (dropped 2
places from year before).

• Smoke:
– IIP growth of 0.1% for April’12
– consistently high inflation that stands at 7.55% in the

in April’12
• Effect:
– in the fight between taming inflation and propelling
growth India is losing out on both
28. Hurdles to doing business in India
• Difficult business climate (World Bank)
– ranks 132 out of 183 economies in 2012
– next to last in enforcing contracts
• little progress in recent years in
improving market access
• Import duties comparatively very high
• Non-transparent and unpredictable
regulatory and tariff regimes.
• A cumbersome bureaucracy
• Corruption
29. 2. India
Nationalization/National Integration
• As important as Globalization
• Political and cultural integration within India
• The exchange of
trade, culture, ideas, ethics, beliefs, etc. between
the various states, races, cultures of India
– Each unique in its own manner
– Brings its own advantages and disadvantages
• Cities are a melting pot of cosmopolitanism
– Like New York; most cities have large concentrations
of other state folk; bigger cities have a growing
International ethos
30. Education
Share of 25-34 year-olds with a tertiary degree
across OECD and G20 countries (2000, 2010, 2020)

15% of Indian students reach high
school, and just 7%, of the 15% who make
it to high school, graduate
• India produced 11% of graduates in
2010, expected produce 12% of the share
of graduates by 2020
• Education in India is provided by the
public sector as well as the private
sector, with control and funding coming Source: OECD,
from three levels: central, state, and local.
32. China & India

The Dragon and the Tiger
-- Match of the 21st Century?...
• Until 1800 these 2 economies used
to make up 1/2 the world economy...
• How their relationship will shape
world politics & the world economy –
• “Shame they do not get on better"...
• Lots of expectation by Washington
for India to assume a more active
role as a regional balancer vis-à-vis
China.
• New Delhi is far less eager to pursue
this position against its northern
neighbor
•
33. Indian Trade with China
• China is India’s 2nd largest
trading partner.
Indian Exports to China:
• Driven by iron ore
Chinese exports to India

37. Geopolitics in Asia: Russia, India and Pakistan-China
Cooperation
Military-technical cooperation (MTC) of
Islamabad and Beijing is carried out in three
main areas:
Rockets:
• Pakistani armed forces have short range
+ medium range missiles: ‘modification
of Chinese ballistic missiles’;
Combat aircraft:
• Pakistani Air Force has aircraft of
Chinese design – JF-17 Thunder and K-8
Karakorum,
• co-produced interceptor aircraft + early
warning radar system made in China.
Nuclear program:
• it is believed that China could have
transferred the technologies that are
critical to the production of nuclear
weapons to Pakistan.
38. Consequences: Tensions: Asia's space race
• Tensions in Asian politics underlie
today's space competition.
• Long-festering historical and
geopolitical feuds have created
hostilities
• Asian officials believe that space
programmes will bring them status at
home and abroad.
• Asian nations do not want to be seen
as 'backward' or, worse, as falling
behind their neighbours in science and
technology
39. India - Europe & Middle East
Colleen Litkenhaus, Horochi Ogan, Phil Njowusi, Hugues Regal, Bipin Kumar
42. The Soviet Period
• In 1955, Khrushchev announced that the Soviet Union supported
Indian sovereignty over the disputed territory of the Kashmir region
and over Portuguese coastal enclaves.
• The Soviet relationship with India rankled the Chinese and
contributed to Sino-Soviet enmity during the Khrushchev period.
• The Soviet Union declared its neutrality during the 1959 border
dispute and the Indo-China war of 1962, although the Chinese
strongly objected.
• Until the late 80s, to counter these efforts by India to diversify its
relations, the Soviet Union proffered additional weaponry and
economic assistance.
43. The Russian Period
• After the USSR collapse, Russia has continued to support
technologically and economically India.
• Between 1995 (Indian economy liberalization) and 2005, economic
relation between Russia and India was frozen, India criticizing
Russia about the poor quality of equipment delivered and the
exorbitant cost of their maintenance.
• But cooperation on strategic domain like civil nuclear, space
launcher or energy was never stopped.
• Now, a new age of sciences and technologic cooperation is
open, supported by ambitious project as the 5th generation of
multi-missions combat aircraft.

place by uprooting them and at the same time
not sure of providing them a landing space.

drawing the resources from the poor.

Projections presented do not take into account policy measures being pursued in some countries to increase higher education attainmentConclusionsApplied to the overall labour market, these findings suggest that individuals from increasingly better-educated populations will continue to have good employment outcomes, as long as economies continue to become more knowledge-based.These findings also suggest that countries would be well-advised to pursue efforts to build their knowledge economies, in order to avoid skills mismatches and lower private and public returns on education among their higher-educated populations in the future.The global talent pool has never been larger – and will continue to expand, with rapidly-growing G20 nations likely leading the way.Source: OECD
China & India --- Match of the Century?......Economist Magazine article explores the rise of China & India & how their relationship will shape world politics & the world economy - "shame they do not get on better"... until 1800 these 2 economies used to make up 1/2 the world economy... "Globally, the rules-based system that the West set up in the second half of the 20th century brought huge benefits to emerging powers. But it reflects an out-of-date world order, not the current global balance, let alone a future one. China and India should be playing a bigger role in shaping the rules that will govern the 21st century. That requires concessions from the West. But it also requires commitment to a rules-based international order from China and India. A serious effort to solve their own disagreements is a good place to
http://int-history.blogspot.com/2012/05/hafiz-muhammad-saeed-ignorant-mullahs.htmlIndian exports, mainly driven by cotton and iron ore to China amounted to USD 20.8 billion while Chinese exports to India totalled to USD 40.8 billion, virtually double that of India - Bilateral trade between India and China exceeded the two countries' $60 billion target last year, driven largely by rising Indian imports of Chinese machinery that have left a record trade imbalance of $20 billion in China's favour. Figures released for last year showed that bilateral trade in 2010 reached $61.7 billion, with Chinese exports to India touching $40.8 billion. This marked a 43 per cent jump in trade volume from last year, when the recession reduced two-way trade to $43 billion. In 2008, China became India's largest trade partner with $51.8 billion in bilateral trade. Despite the growth, the figures underscore rising Indian concerns over the fast-widening trade deficit, with Indian exports, largely made up of iron ore, other raw materials and cotton, contributing a little over $20 billion — equalling the size of the deficit.
There is enough space in the world for India and China to achieve common development... to have co-operation," Mr Wen said at Friday's meeting with Mr Singh on the sidelines of the of the Asean meeting."We must strive to ensure the sound and steady growth of our relationship," he said.
http://indrus.in/articles/2012/06/29/geopolitics_in_asia_russia_india_and_pakistan-china_cooperation_16089.htmlIn 1950, Pakistan was one of the first countries to recognize the People’s Republic of China, while in the 1960s to early 1970s it remained Beijing’s most steadfast ally during a period of a relative international isolation of the latter. China appreciates this support by providing Pakistan with both military, and technical and economic assistance, including the transfer of nuclear technology. Some experts believe that strengthening multilateral connections between India and the U.S. will make strategic alliance relations between Islamabad and Beijing even closer, even more so, because the Pakistani elite considers the partnership with China to be a security guarantee. Military-technical cooperation (MTC) of Islamabad and Beijing is carried out in three main areas: Rockets: Pakistani armed forces have short range and medium range missiles that experts regard as a ‘modification of Chinese ballistic missiles’; Combat aircraft: the Pakistani Air Force has aircraft of Chinese design – JF-17 Thunder and K-8 Karakorum, as well as the co-produced interceptor aircraft. In addition, the Pakistani Air Force uses the early warning radar system made in China (U.S. experts believe that the delay in the transfer of the remains of the stealth helicopter that took part in the elimination of Osama bin Laden on May 2, 2011, was associated with its preliminary study by the Chinese military); Nuclear program: it is believed that China could have transferred to Pakistan the technologies that are critical to the production of nuclear weapons. In addition to MTC, Pakistan and China are actively developing economic relations; their development acceleration was caused by a Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement of 2008. By some estimates, the bilateral trade is approaching $15 billion.
