Abstrakt:

The article refers to the research carried out on emerging donors, i.e. developing, non-DAC countries that provide foreign assistance. India was chosen as an example owing to the fact there are still few papers on Indian development cooperation. The existing publications on that issue focus mainly on physical transfers of resources and technical cooperation from India to African and Asian countries. Other dimensions of Indian influence on global development were scantily described. The aim of the article is to debate issues other than the physical impact of India on global aid architecture. The author intends to present a developing country as an active member of the international community that not only implements economic policies of foreign origin, but also alters them to local conditions and, what matters most, takes part in their creation on a partnership basis. In the article, Indian responses to modernisation polices were described, then the interconnection between the dependency school and the Indian economic practice of the Nehru period were considered. Next, the influence on India of neoliberal counter-revolution in development economics was outlined and finally, the selected characteristics of contemporary Indian economists who have had a significant influence on mainstream development economics were presented.
