The International Journal of Pluralism and Economics Education invites papers (approximate length 6000 words) on any aspect of economics education in India. The aim of this IJPEE special issue on India is to assess the adequacy of economics education in India from an Indian perspective. While the preponderant focus is at the university level, we also invite papers that discuss economics education at the secondary level. More specifically, we invite papers along the following themes:
· What is the current state of economics education in India? Is it adequate to meet the needs of its citizens and to help build the nation?
· What are the influences of the past on current economics education?
· What is the role of neoclassical economics in Indian economics education?
· What is the role of alternative schools of economics such as Classical Political Economics, Marxian Economics, Sraffian Economics, Kaldorian / Kaleckian Economics, Institutional and Green Economics in Indian economics education?
· Does economics education vary according to regional, cultural and religious differences?
· What is the extent of pluralism in Indian economics education?
· Does pluralism enhance or hinder the learning of economics?
· Empirical testing of the adequacy of Indian economics education.
· Adequate testing of economics knowledge within the context of pluralism.
· Discussion of economics education at the high school level.
· Unique features of Indian economics education.
· Specific suggestions to re-conceptualise economics education in India.
