Economy, Corruption, Politics And The Path Towards New India

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 17, 20220

Recent weeks have demonstrated how "family first," "corruption first," and "freebies first" policies have wreaked havoc on economies in and around India, most notably Sri Lanka. Without naming any one state, political party, or individual, Prime Minister Modi sounded a note of caution about the dangers of populism and quick fixes in politics. In the past, many notable people and organizations, including the United States Supreme Court, have offered their thoughts on this topic. Instead of a "free for all" approach, which is unfair to the most deprived and perhaps nothing more than a gimmick because usually such schemes can never be implemented or sustained for a long time, any competent administrator would support the idea of ensuring that his or her government ensures targeted, foolpro...

Arpita SarkarAugust 16, 20220

There is much to lament in India's post-Covid job market, where recovery has been painfully slow. However, official data suggests that in the salaried sector, the participation of religious minorities – Muslims, Sikhs,, and Christians, in that order – has been most severely affected. The Ministry of Statistics and Program Implementation's latest PLFS (Periodic Labor Force Survey) – which covers the period from July 2020 to June 2021 and was released earlier this year – at least partially captures the impact of the lockdown, and its immediate aftermath, on salaried jobs across the sector. The survey defined regular/salaried employees as a person who has worked in another's farm or non-farm enterprise (both household and non-household) and, in return, has received salary or wages o...

These criminal networks from a tiny European country have revolutionized the international cocaine business. Reports emerged that the European cocaine market had surpassed us in value for the first time. A relatively new type of trafficker has primarily supplied this decade-long explosion in European coke habits. The highly successful organized crime groups are drawn from Albanian communities all over the continent. Albania is a small country with a population of under 3 million. For decades, it was ruled by a brutal authoritarian communist regime which is part of the reason it's now become so prominent in international organized crime.  Thro
