G20@2023: The Roadmap to the Indian Presidency
BOOK REVIEW BY Dr RAJAN KATOCH
V. Srinivas’ deeply researched book G20@2023: The Roadmap to the Indian Presidency comprehensively sets out the evolution of the G20 from its inception in 2008 to its present position as the premier forum for international economic cooperation. The author’s background as an brilliant scholar-administrator who has been closely associated with the highest political levels and also worked in multilateral financial institutions gives him a unique perspective that is reflected in this work.
The book traces step by step the expansion of the scope of the G20 meetings over the years. The happenings at the key Summits held are covered in considerable depth. The book highlights the stellar role played by G20 in actively responding and successfully tackling severe global financial crises like the Global Financial Crisis of 2008, the Eurozone Crisis of 2010 and the Covid 19 Pandemic of 2020. It contains a wealth of documentation that provide useful insights into the decision-making processes of G20 and the complex workings of multilateralism in practice.
In this aptly titled Roadmap, the author brings out India’s approach and perspective to the presidency of this key global forum, and sets out the reform agenda and initiatives that are likely to define India’s presidency of the G20. In a currently divided and increasingly multipolar world, he brings out how India’s presidency is being seen as an opportunity to guide the global order towards strengthening multilateralism and encourage more consultative and inclusive global policy making processes.
G20@2023: The Roadmap to the Indian Presidency is an invaluable reference for scholars, academics and highly recommended for anyone even remotely interested in the background and happenings related to the crucial Indian presidency of G20. For those directly or indirectly associated with the G20 process in any capacity, this book is absolutely a must have!
