    <title>Controlling China’s Currency</title>

    <title>Why India Slowed</title>
    <description><![CDATA[Unlike many equally poor countries, India has a strong entrepreneurial class, a reasonably large and well-educated middle class, and a number of world-class corporations that can be enlisted in the effort to provide public goods. Why, then, has India’s GDP growth slowed so much, from nearly 10% in 2010 and 2011 to 5% today?]]></description>
