- Abstract
- The Indian civilization has the most ancient history, but here we have Republic of India – an absolutely new state formation. One might say that such a state is really a man-made project because such a country, in such borders, with such form of state system and management never existed before.Economists widely use the so-called SWOT-analysis method for the analysis of such long-term projects. They analyze strength, weakness, opportunities, threats or risks. We believe that this kind of analysis could be useful for systematization of successes and achievements of India, as well as problems facing it, and new opportunities.The author claims, that the model of a society built in India is resistant to external influences, has great potential of self-development, but there are also a lot of threats for the future above all: permanent growth of the population while the natural resources of the country are limited. Nobody knows whether India will have time to become a developed country which could solve all technological problems in case of aggravation of deficiency of natural resources before growth of the population will lead to ecological catastrophe which will develop into social catastrophe and may eliminate all previous achievements.
