Draws on everyday examples to expose the favourite economic fallacies of the right and the left, making it clear how virtually all commonly held beliefs about the economy- whether espoused by political activitists, politicians, journalists, or taxpayers - are just plain wrong, and why it is only through economic literacy that we can come to a sober assessment of the strengths and weakness of capitalism.

| Summary/Abstract |
Chronicles the internal battles of a nation that is both the world's largest democracy and a leading nuclear power. Shiva describes a society where traditional cultures collide with the new economy of globalization, and charts the course of India's war of fundamentalisms in the age of terror. From the IT centers of Bangalore to the villages of Uttar Pradesh, from the massacre at Gujarat and the popular emergence of Hindutva's narrow communalism to the decades-old battle for Kashmir. India Divided reveals a convergence of globalization and terrorism. Looking to the plights of India's Dalit communities and millions of poor subsistence farmers impoverished or displaced by biotechnology, seed patents, and the spate of mega-dam projects.
