'Asian Drama': The pursuit of modernization in India and Indonesia

Article Abstract:

The tension played out, within the modern project in the context of India and Indonesia are discussed. India's tragedy was that if it had pursued better policies earlier, it could have had faster growth and faster reduction in policy while Indonesia's tragedy was that it did so well for so long in terms of economic development but then threw away the opportunity for continued rapid growth through the political failures of the late General Suharto presidency.
