Militarised AI, Private Credit, and Iran War
Private credit markets are showing signs of stress, with multiple major funds restricting withdrawals as investors struggle to exit illiquid holdings. The fears of investors are driven by the success of AI, which, while driven by enormous capital spending financed in part by private credit, is perceived as disrupting the pre-existing software landscape. These dynamics are increasingly tied to military demand, with the US government encouraging pr…
The AI Promise and Financial Fragility
In a circular spiral, the hype surrounding artificial intelligence and the boom in investments by and market capitalisation of artificial intelligence firms have fed into each other. However, there are signs of emerging concern as evidence accumulates that current trends do not back the AI hype, triggering fears that go beyond just those related to an unwinding of the stock boom. , making the The structure that the AI hype has built is much more …

The Crypto pagenumsuzzle
A number of recent developments seem to endow cryptocurrencies with the legitimacy they lack in the world of mainstream finance. The most striking of these is the move in the United States to pass three Acts to clarify and strengthen the regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and digital assets, including one prohibiting the issue of a central bank digital currency by the Federal Reserve. The framework does less to regulate the issue and tradi…

The Financialization of Finance? Demonetization and the Dubious Push to Cashlessness in India
This Debate contribution describes the promotion of digital rather than cash payments as a form of the financialization of finance, in its role as a payments system, with reference to recent Indian experience. The arguments in favour of reducing cash usage must be seen relative to the costs of digital payments, for both society and individuals. The drastic demonetization episode in India, which removed 86 per cent of the value of notes in circula…
Alternative ‘models’ of structural transformation in Asia and their implications
Few countries have made the developmental transition to developed country status in the post-World War II period. Although all of them have traversed the classical path of diversification away from agriculture into manufacturing, market economies among them that have managed the transition have done so on the basis of exports. This constrains the possibilities of transition in currently underdeveloped countries, as not all countries can be simult…
Introduction
At one level much has been written on the relevance of the Clark-Kuznets etc. understanding of the structural transformation that accompanies economic development in Asia in general and the successful Asian industrialisers in particular. Now the debate has partly shifted to whether India illustrates the (speculative) possibility of a trajectory where the services sector leads growth. The latter question is seen as significant because the possibil…
Private Profit and the Digital Dividend
A Window of Enlightenment? Revisiting Bretton Woods to Reinterpret the History of Hegemony
Not a Benign Market
Food inflation in India for the past few years has been at a historic high. However, the evidence suggests that higher food prices, while adversely affecting those who spend most of their income on food, have not necessarily been helpful to smallholder farmers. The volatility of food prices at the wholesale and retail levels has also remained high, creating uncertainties for consumers and producers. This article reviews recent trends in food pric…
Addressing the Global Food Crisis
Food Security and Poverty
Overview. Standing on the Threshold
This piece provides a summary of the articles detailing the recent fight for food justice in India. It begins by providing an overview of the state of food and nutrition in India and reflects on the experience to date of the role of the courts in promoting food justice. It goes on to describe some of the ongoing struggles to claim rights and justice, highlighting implementation, capacity, incentive and cultural barriers to realisation. Finally, t…
Food Price Levels and Volatility
Food inflation in India for the past few years has been at an historic high. Higher food prices have especially hurt those who spend most of their income on food and have not necessarily been helpful to smallholder farmers in terms of increased supply response. The volatility of food prices at the wholesale and retail levels has also increased, and this creates uncertainties for consumers and producers that need to be managed. This article review…
Critical Perspectives on the Great Recession
China's Banks a New Frontier for Global Finance
C.P. CHANDRASEKHAR'S article on the rush of foreign financial institutions and investment funds to buy a share of China's big banks is fascinating and. Chandrasekar describes a frenzy to buy into deals that so lack transparency as to be - if you will - opaquely translucent. No matter. As is so common in our bubble-prone era as to pass without notice, the mere scent of speculative profits is enough to set billions of dollars flying across globaliz…

How Feasible Is a Rural Employment Guarantee
Finance and the Real Economy
Recent analyses have related the increasing importance of finance capital in the global economy to the sluggishness and unevenness of growth in the world system. This paper is concerned with investigating the changing structure and role of finance and its links with the real economy following financial liberalization. It discusses the transmission mechanisms through which the “effects” of finance on the real economy are revealed, and examines in …
The Diffusion of Information Technology
Neo-Liberal Reform and Industrial Growth
Democratic Decentralisation and the Planning Principle
To adherents of the classical role and nature of planning in economic systems, decentralised planning would appear a contradiction in terms. The orthodox literature on planning had at its core a process of centralised investment decision-making, which had as its corollary central access to and allocation of the surpluses available in the system. On the other hand, if decentralisation is to be meaningful, resources need to be devolved to lower lev…
The economic consequences of the abolition of child labour
The abolition of child labour in underdeveloped countries is often held to be practically infeasible because it would entail closure of the economic activities which exist only because of access to such labour. Abolition, therefore, would reduce the earnings of poor households whose survival strategies, in the context of adult unemployment, depend on incomes derived from the practice. This article examines the child labour-based industry of match…
External Vulnerability and Industrial Policy in the Era of Globalization
Agrarian change and occupational diversification
Based on evidence from the quinquennial surveys on employment by the National Sample Survey Organisation, it has been argued that, as part of the process of change associated with the Green Revolution, rural India is witnessing an agricultural growth-induced diversification in economic activity in favour of non-agricultural actvities. This article examines that argument using evidence relating to India as a whole and the state of West Bengal in p…
