Kerala has attracted international attention for its remarkable development achievements, particularly in the fields of land reform, health, and universal school education. After passing through long periods of slow growth and stagnation in domestic income from 1960, the economy of Kerala had a revival in growth of domestic income and per capita consumption expenditure from the late 1980s. Nevertheless, for the many favourable factors for industrialization that it enjoyed, industrialization in Kerala remains far from commensurate with the socio-economic achievements of the State.
