Abstract

The Development of the Software Industry in Postreform India: Comparative Regional Experiences in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, and Kerala is an illuminating attempt by Dr. Rajendra Kumar to develop a coherent analytical framework in order to document and evaluate the reasons behind three successful cases in which high-tech industries were promoted for development and economic growth. Targeted at scholars and policymakers, it is an in-depth look into the role that regional political, cultural and enabling policy environments play in hightechnology-based economic development, focusing on the software industry and information technology-enabled services (ITES) in India. The conclusions and findings of the author are a significant contribution towards understanding the different strategies and options available to developing regions in supporting the growth of this type of industry and making them competitive globally.
