THINKING AHEAD

Of course it’s just another random moment in our collective history, but the end of a year at the end of a decade does give us pause and the opportunity to reflect on the future. So we asked a dozen experts whose job it is to think deeply about the past, present and future of the country to do just that. We asked about the economy, about climate change and the promises and threats of technology for mass transport, urban planning, defence, healthcare and agriculture. We asked about India’s place in the world and the place of politics, science and religion in India. They came back with plenty of new questions—and some consensus on the important ones. By the end of the coming decade, India will lead the world in one metric at least— population. There will be a lot more Indians and more than ever looking to live and work outside agriculture. In other words, more questions. Is this a challenge, an opportunity or an impending disaster? Don’t worry, you’ll find some cautious optimism in these pages too. India is also full of answers.
