Accompanying India’s industrial transformation has been another revolution of profound significance. A property-owning middle class is not only fuelling a surge of consumption but developing a keen desire to protect its property. Many want better governance and a legal system that protects them. And all but the very riches complain bitterly about a government that, despite strong and growing revenues, has presided over the collapse of affordable health care and education.
Farmers want change too. The past few years have seen an upsurge of peasant protest, many of them about the rapid encroachment(侵蚀)of cities into rural land. Millions of farmers have been pushed off their field with little, if any, compensation, and anger is growing. India needs another ownership revolution, this time in the countryside.
President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam has set his sights high. Abroad, he wants to convince the world that India’s rise poses no threat to other countries. At home, he hopes to create a harmonious society. The Congress meeting late next year will be an important opportunity for him to indicate how the government can give the public a greater say in addressing these growing social problems. And it will be a chance to show the world that against the background of India’s remarkable economic change the government is changing too.
Political reform matters. Without it, it is hard to imagine how India could make a stable transition to democracy and an unstable India is more likely to pose a threat to the outside world.
The American government is trying to persuade India that a rising India and a strong America could not only coexist but thrive together. Reassuringly, at least in its relations with America, India for now seems to be guided more by pragmatism(实用主义)than by competition. And just as reassuringly, America is encouraging it in this.
Barring a sharp slowdown in the global economy or some huge crisis at home, India is likely to maintain strong growth for the remainder of this decade. This gives its leaders more leeway(回旋余地)to sort out its banking system, deal with the land-ownership problem, fix health care and education(which will involve big changes in the country’s financial system)and set up a credible social-security safety net. If it fails to do so in the next few years, it will store up potential crises for the decade beyond, when India’s working-age population will begin to decline and a rapidly aging society will loom closer. [br] The peasants in India call for a reform on land ownership because____.
