Speaker: The Honourable P Chidambaram, Finance Minister, Government of India
A View from the Outside; Why Good Economics Works for Everyone, by Indian Finance Minister P. Chidambaram, gives a rare insight into the mind of an economic policy-maker, lawyer, politician and administrator. Into its fourth-print run, a bestseller with over 15,000 books sold in India, the book is a compilation of columns by Chidambaram, originally published in The Indian Express and The Financial Express. The Honourable Prime Minister of India, Dr Manmohan Singh released the book on 22nd January 2007. The columns were written from 2002 to 2004 when the BJP-led NDA was in power at the Center. The collection covers subjects as varied as economy from agriculture and reforms to forex reserves tax policies to politics and social issues. More than reactions to events and developments, Chidambarams columns provide a deep understanding of the problems that the Indian economy faces and the ways to solve them. On occasions, the columns become notes from one Finance Minister to another.

Men differ in intellect and behaviour. So why are we so much obsessed with economic disparities and inequalities? A society's goal must be to ensure that no one goes hungry or is denied all opportunity which he deserves to develop his potential. Economic & political theorists from 17th century onwards continue to be overly concerned with freedom, liberty, and inequalities,as a religion.Technology solved problem of mass,but it is double-aged. We must look to spiritual (not religious) solutions.

India can not keep blaming biofuels and it can not avoid producing them either. Only solution is to regulate the land-allocation for biofuel crops - so that food security is not compromised for biofuels. We need strong and bold agri and trade policies - subsidies, tariffs, whatever it takes.
