| FDI
in Retail: Benefiting neo-liberalism, harming people |
|
| Sep
26th 2012, Subhanil
Chowdhury |
|
| The
decision of the UPA government to open up the
retail sector in the country to FDI is an example
of the basic fallacy in the 'growth fetishism'
of the votaries of neo-liberalism. While the government
argues that this move will generate investor confidence
in the Indian economy and lead the country to
high growth, in reality the problems of the common
people - deprivation, poverty and hunger - far
from being ameliorated, will actually be intensified. |
