India

The chapter that I read was on India. The country of India developed a democracy, which is heavily based on the British model of government and took some U.S. incorporation to the system. The introduction to this chapter was interesting because the next countries that they will talk about are developing countries. India is rare because they adopted democracy before they could reach the GDP of 8,000. India adapted the the British Parliament system and their constitution is suppose to be socialist, secular, and democratic. The Prime Minister of India has all the power because Jawaharla Nehru was in power for 17 years. They also have a bicameral Parliament system just like the UK. The upper house is composed of the states and the Lower house is the most powerful its called the LOK Sabha, which means Peoples Assembly. They use U.S techniques to choose their assembly members by voting one third the members every two years. They have also adopted the American Judiciary system by making a Supreme Court in India. My post is on the two economies future mass economies which are China and India. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/India-seeks-more-Chinese-investment-to-bridge-trade-deficit/articleshow/32607644.cms
