Book Description
This study is at macro level, India focused, and in a comparative perspective with Kenya and Sri Lanka. No more a leader in global tea markets, India's importance in the world tea trade is now mainly because of a huge production and a large domestic market. Sri Lanka is resurging perusing competitive market strategies through value added products and quality control. India and Kenya continue to be largely in commodity forms in their tea exports. India is falling behind in almost every market. In contrast Kenya, relatively a new producer, has been increasing its share. The case studies from Kenya Tea Development Agency (KTDA) and Japan Tea market and a comparative discussion of auctions and infrastructure included in the book are instructive in understanding of the competition and competitiveness in global tea trade. Analyzing markets and understanding and evaluating competitive positions can help the Indian tea industry to develop competitive product market strategies. The all important question is, can India retrieve its lost competitive position in the global tea trade? If yes, what strategies need to be followed by various stakeholders? A host of issues arise in this context and the study that follows deals with them. The book would be of interest to all involved in global tea trade and policy makers.

Tea War
Author: Andrew B. Liu
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300252331
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
A history of capitalism in nineteenth‑ and twentieth‑century China and India that explores the competition between their tea industries “Tea War is not only a detailed comparative history of the transformation of tea production in the 19th and early 20th centuries, but it also intervenes in larger debates about the nature of capitalism, global modernity, and global history.”— Alexander F. Day, Occidental College Tea remains the world’s most popular commercial drink today, and at the turn of the twentieth century, it represented the largest export industry of both China and colonial India. In analyzing the global competition between Chinese and Indian tea, Andrew B. Liu challenges past economic histories premised on the technical “divergence” between the West and the Rest, arguing instead that seemingly traditional technologies and practices were central to modern capital accumulation across Asia. He shows how competitive pressures compelled Chinese merchants to adopt abstract industrial conceptions of time, while colonial planters in India pushed for labor indenture laws to support factory-style tea plantations. Characterizations of China and India as premodern backwaters, he explains, were themselves the historical result of new notions of political economy adopted by Chinese and Indian nationalists, who discovered that these abstract ideas corresponded to concrete social changes in their local surroundings. Together, these stories point toward a more flexible and globally oriented conceptualization of the history of capitalism in China and India.
