Antonio Armellini, former Italian Ambassador to India in 2004-08, in his book: If the Elephant Flies looks at the opportunities and pitfalls confronting India in the twenty-first century. India is the world’s largest democracy and looks confidently to joining the ranks of the most advanced industrial nations. In vividly illuminating pages, the author analyses the various aspects of the country’s institutions and the mechanisms of its civil society and provides an original insight – as well as some reasons for caution - into the motivations of the remarkable optimism with which Indians pursue the perspective of accelerated economic growth and global strategic influence.
