Book Talk | September 17, 2023
Ashoka Mody, Princeton University
Discussant: Razia Iqbal, Princeton University
Challenging prevailing narratives, Ashoka Mody’s new book, India is Broken,
contends that India’s post-independence leaders failed to confront the country’s true economic problems and sought easy solutions instead. India’s economic growth has increasingly relied on unregulated finance and environmentally destructive construction. Mody proposes a path forward that is fraught with its own peril but which nevertheless offers something resembling hope.
