This week, after you've taken a deep dive into the micro details of daily life in America, make a macroeconomic leap into the world of global competition. In this issue, we present TIME's inaugural "Best Countries for Business," a special report we are producing with the World Economic Forum (WEF). "Best Countries for Business" offers a formidable combination of resources: the globe's most prestigious business organization linked with the planet's best journalists to report on the heated competition among nations for investment.

It's not as if we're seeing our first red lipstick and going out and buying it in hundreds of thousands. India is getting richer. At a very micro level, I think every Indian woman who is now financially independent is realizing the joys of guilt-free consumption. We are kind of moving from a 'we' culture to a 'me' culture...
