United States President Donald Trump's ‘reciprocal tariffs' have been compared to the Smoot-Hawley tariffs of the 1930s, which many say hastened the slide into the Great Depression. The difference between the 1930s and now is that we have the World Trade Organization (WTO) to oversee and enforce global trade rules. However, some argue that over the years, the WTO has gradually lost its compass and is in need of massive reforms. Is the WTO still relevant? Here we discuss the question. Guests: Mohan Kumar, Professor of Diplomatic Practice at the Jindal School of International Affairs, O.P. Jindal Global University. He previously served as India's lead negotiator at GATT and WTO; Mark Linscott, Senior Adviser with the U.S.India Strategic Partnership Forum and former assistant, United States Trade Representative for South and Central Asia Host: Samreen Wani You can now find The Hindu's podcasts on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Stitcher.

On April 2, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump announced a new set of tariffs against countries that, according to him, charged high tariffs and imposed barriers that made products made in the USA more expensive. These tariffs are essential to Trump's plan to reduce trade deficits and increase domestic manufacturing. The “baseline” tariff of 10% on imports from all countries came into effect on April 5, 2025. A new set of tariffs would come into effect on April 9. The Trump administration imposed a 26% tariff on imports from India, which is slightly higher than the 20% levy for the European Union, the 24% for Japan and the 25% for South Korea. However, this is lower than the levies on imports from China and other regional manufacturing rivals like Vietnam. Different countries have responded differently to the tariffs. China has announced retaliatory tariffs, the EU offered a ‘zero-for-zero' deal to the US, while India has gone for a cautious approach. The Department of Commerce said it is “carefully examining” the implications of the tariff announcements. It is also engaging with exporters and other stakeholders and taking feedback on their assessment of the tariffs, and assessing the situation. India and the US are in talks to determine the terms for a mutually beneficial, multi-sectoral Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA).

This week on Hafta, Newslaundry's Abhinandan Sekhri, Manisha Pande, Raman Kirpal, and Anand Vardhan are joined by Dr Sumeet Mhaskar, professor of sociology at Jindal School of Government and Public Policy, and Ajoy Bose, veteran journalist and author of Behenji: The Rise and Fall of Mayawati.The panel first discusses the controversy triggered by Samajwadi Party legislator Abu Azmi's remarks on Aurangzeb while addressing the Mughal emperor's portrayal in the film Chhava.Sumeet provides historical context to the interpretation of Aurangzeb and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj's legacies in Maharashtra. Explaining how they are shaped by competing narratives, he says: “Much more communalised interpretation is projected through movies, history textbooks, and plays”. The return of Aurangzeb to headlines shows that we are using the present to judge the past, rather than letting history inform our present, he notes.Commenting on Aurangzeb's legacy, Manisha adds, “When you look at the Mughals, I would say Aurangzeb was the worst of them...He's an odd hill to die on, especially for current politicians.”The panel then analyses the “political decline” of Mayawati, and her decision to suspend nephew Akash Anand from the Bahujan Samaj Party.Ajoy terms the suspension as a “significant moment”. Commenting on Mayawati's “disruptive” thinking, he says: “If Kanshiram was the strategic genius who thought of using Dalits to become a political force, Mayawati was the person who delivered”. On where things went wrong for Mayawati, he remarks, “She got quite distracted by her prime ministerial dream being thrashed and made fundamental mistakes in handling the social alliance which brought her to power.”As Abhinandan and Sumeet point to BSP's cadre being the strength of the party, Anand underlines Mayawati's “lack of political agility” as one of the reasons for BSP's decline.

In this episode, host Dan Karnuta welcomes Don Taylor, the chairman of the board of directors at the Healthcare Standards Institute Foundation, which is responsible for developing a national standard for the implementation of artificial intelligence as it relates to the governance of the healthcare industry. The in-depth discussion by the two faculty members and healthcare administration experts in The University of Texas at Dallas focuses on how artificial intelligence is being integrated into the healthcare industry and the urgent need for its governance and standardization. Since the use of AI is now, or soon will be, used in everything including clinical decision-making, administrative tasks, patient interaction and even insurance claims, Karnuta and Taylor discuss the significant concerns raised by its use including its ethics, patient privacy and organizational accountability. Karnuta is an associate professor in the Jindal School's Organizations, Strategy and International Management Area as well as director of its Professional Program in Healthcare Management. Taylor is a professor of practice in the Jindal School's Executive Education Area and director of its Alliance for Physician Leadership program. He also serves in the faculty of UT Southwestern Medical Center.
At a recent panel discussion in New Delhi, French economist Thomas Piketty suggested that a wealth and inheritance tax be imposed on the super-rich in India, which, in turn, could fund health and education. India's Chief Economic Advisor, Anantha Nageswaran, opposed the idea, arguing that higher taxes could encourage fund outflows. Should the wealth tax be brought back to address inequality in India? Here we discuss the question.

Old Delhi's Parallel Book Bazaar (Cambridge UP, 2024) looks at Old Delhi's Daryaganj Sunday Book Market, popularly known as Daryaganj Sunday Patri Kitab Bazaar, as a parallel location for books and a site of resilience and possibilities. The first section studies the bazaar's spatiality - its location, relocation, and spatialization. Three actors play a major role in creating and organising this spatiality: the sellers, the buyers, and the civic authorities. The second section narrativizes the biographies of the booksellers of Daryaganj to offer a map of the hidden social and material networks that support the informal modes of bookselling. Amidst order and chaos, using their specialised knowledge, Daryaganj booksellers create distinctive mechanisms to serve the diverse reading public of Delhi. Using ethnography, oral interviews, and rhythmanalysis, this Element tells a story of urban aspirations, state-citizen relations, official and unofficial cultural economies, and imaginations of other viable worlds of being and believing.

In this podcast, businessline's Nabodita Ganguly is joined by Maharaj K. Pandit, Ngee Ann Kongsi Distinguished Professor, National University of Singapore, Dean, Jindal School of Environment & Sustainability, OP Jindal Global University, to discuss various critical issues related to the Himalayan region, its environmental challenges, and the recent flood in Sikkim. The recent catastrophe in Sikkim began with a cloudburst at Lhonak glacial lake, triggering a flash flood in the Teesta River, submerging towns on October 4. This calamity also wreaked havoc on the Chungthang dam, a critical component of the Teesta-3 hydropower project, impacting regions as far-reaching as West Bengal and Bangladesh. What makes this conversation even more intriguing is that Pandit had been warned of this disaster in 2007–2008 and again in 2017. The conversation begins with a discussion of Pandit 's work, which includes writing a book in 2017 called "Life in the Himalaya: An Ecosystem at Risk." The focus of the work is on the ecological and geological vulnerability of the Himalayan region, specifically in relation to large-scale development projects and dams. The study warned against constructing dams and large-scale projects in certain areas, given the geological and ecological risks involved. Pandit also talks about the importance of timely communication and preparedness in dealing with such disasters, as well as the need for real-time monitoring through technology such as drones and satellite imagery. Pandit discusses the need for civil society to be aware of the Himalayas' ecological fragility and geological vulnerability, suggesting that this knowledge should be integrated into school curricula. He expresses the desire for a more peaceful and safer Himalayas, emphasising the importance of reducing large-scale development activities in the region. Overall, the conversation underscores the importance of heeding scientific warnings, adopting advanced technology for monitoring, and ensuring the safety of the Himalayan region in the face of increasing environmental challenges. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/business-line/message

Three farm laws passed by the Parliament of India in 2020 received major pushback from farmers around the country - with many of them mobilizing in Punjab and heading to the capital New Delhi. The protest site at the border village of Singhu outside Delhi turned into a mini-city of sorts with the Sikh farmers operating community kitchens and serving meals to thousands of people every day, including the policemen watching over the very barricades that restricted their entry into Delhi.

After enforcing a ban on wheat exports, India announced some relaxations on 18 May. The surprise decision had led to a lot of chaos as hundreds of thousands of tonnes of wheat were reportedly left stranded at Gujarat's Kandla Port after the ban was announced. But the new notification from the Ministry of Commerce has said, "It has been decided that wherever wheat consignments have been handed over to Customs for examination and have been registered into their systems on or prior to 13.5.2022, such consignments would be allowed to be exported." Explaining its rationale behind prohibiting the export of wheat, the central government had said that it was committed to providing for the food security of India as well as other vulnerable countries that had been adversely affected by sudden disruptions in the global market for wheat. But in the aftermath of the ban, as the wheat prices soared to a record high, the ban drew criticism from G7 nations, which said that such moves would "worsen the crisis" of rising commodity prices. But even back at home the jury is divided. While some are of the opinion that such a ban can impact India's credibility and is also harsh on farmers who could profit from the higher export prices, others say that it is needed to curb the rising prices in the country as severe heatwaves have damaged crops. But to better understand the rationale behind the export ban and its likely implications on domestic and foreign markets, I spoke to Deepanshu Mohan, Associate Professor and Director at the Centre for New Economics Studies at the Jindal School of Liberal Arts and Humanities.

India's increasing closeness with the US and joining the QUAD (an informal forum for cooperation with US, Japan and Australia ostensibly to contain China) is viewed with optimism in India, but has come at the expense of straining India's age old relationship with Russia, which has not kept its displeasure a secret. At the same time India's decision to buy Russia's S-400 air defence despite repeated warnings of sanctions from the US is testing the limits of the new-found warmness between the two democracies. India hopes to grow its strategic partnership with the US, while at the same time retaining its special relationship with Russia. But as US-Russia ties revert to Cold War hostility, will India be able to maintain this delicate balance or will it be forced to choose (once again) one over the other? And who will India choose - the longtime steadfast friend or the new wealthy suitor?PANELISTS:Amb.

Steve's guest is Dr. Ruchira Sen who got her PhD at UMKC where she studied with a number of friends of this podcast. Herresearch areas are in feminist economics, informed by institutional economics, MMT, and Marxian economics. She describes an economy built on the backs of women, that exists outside the normal parameters of capitalism while making it possible for capitalism to thrive. We've had neoliberal reforms since the 1990s, which has meant a gradual withdrawal of the state from almost everything. And that has specifically impacted the lives of women. Because when the state withdraws from providing you basic services like water, electricity, then it's usually the women who become additionally burdened... The participation of women in the (paid) labor force is declining, their contribution to unpaid work is phenomenal. In a country as massive as India, with a population of around a billion, any change in government policy can have far-reaching and unexpected consequences. Ruchira describes the effects of the 2016 demonetization action, in which two currency notes – of the most widely used denominations – were taken out of circulation. Among a population where the majority of individual financial transactions are conducted in cash and many don't have bank accounts, this “decashification” caused widespread suffering for the poor and working class. Steve asks Ruchira what drives poverty in India and she talks about British colonial policy and the deindustrialization of the Ganges plain. Poverty is essentially a result of the pushing of capitalist relations onto our population. Not to say that there was no hunger before but the colonial power imposed selective tariff policies on Indian textiles... They pretty much decimated the artisan population in the Gangetic Plains and destroyed much of local industry. That resulted in large bodies of people who were dispossessed. They had nothing but their labor and they became the proletariat. I think it's pretty fundamental to how colonialism works because you need general labor-ready bodies to do the work, to produce the exports that your home country needs, to produce the wealth that your home country will drain away. Ruchira talks about the pervasive threat of violence against women in India, and what she calls a watershed moment – the Nirbhaya Incident and anti-rape agitation. She talks about the left, including some active communist parties that have had successes but have also made questionable choices on occasion. And she talks about India's lack of energy and food independence. Dr. Ruchira Sen is an Assistant Professor of Economics at Jindal School of Journalism and Communication at O.P. Jindal Global University in India. She teaches macroeconomics, data analysis for storytelling, and data journalism. Her PhD in economics is from the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Ruchira is primarily concerned with low paid and unpaid labor in various fields from housework and marriage to the media. She has written on dowry as a gift system in South Asia and how it relates to violence, and on international networks of care and how they impact the USA. Her recent research is on mediated activism in India. Ruchira is primarily informed by an international post-colonial feminist view of the world by MMT and Marxism. @RuchiraSen67 on Twitter
This week, Henry & Colin are joined by three fan studies scholars, andré m. carrington,author of Speculative Blackness: The Future of Race in Science Fiction; Abigail De Kosnik, author of #identity: Hashtagging Race, Gender, Sexuality, and Nation; and Rukmini Pande author of Fandom, Now in Color and Squee from the Margins. We talk about how race has been addressed (or not) in fandoms and fan studies, digging into recent fandom controversies over race, such as Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and the legacy of fandom's roots in America. We ask how Squid Games can be the most popular series on Netflix, even as we are seeing an unprecidented wave of anti-Asian hate crimes or why fandom has tended to ignore some of the characters of color who have emerged through popular entertainment franchises. Ultimately, how can we look beyond the competing narratives of “fandom will save us” vs. “toxic fandom” for more nuanced ways to understand and deal with societal biases through fandoms?A full transcript of this episode will be available soon!Here are some of the references from this episode, for those who want to dig a little deeper:andré m. carrington - Associate Professor of English at the University of California-Riverside, author of Speculative Blackness: The Future of Race in Science FictionAbigail De Kosnik - Associate Professor and Director, Berkeley Center for New Media, author of #identity: Hashtagging Race, Gender, Sexuality, and NationRukmini Pande - Associate Professor, Literary Studies and Writing, Jindal School of Liberal Arts & Humanities, author of Fandom, Now in Color and Squee from the MarginsOriginal Star Trek series – origins of fandomStar Wars Last Jedi trolling - Kelly Marie Tran, Krystina Arielle, John BoyegaTolkien fandom dust-upEarly Sherlock Holmes fan clubsStar Trek, Blake's 7 60s-70sEarly internet fandom – usenet, geo cities, yahoo groupsLive JournalFan Pressure to integrate:Jordan Peele's Twilight Zone RebootAva duVernay's A Wrinkle in TimeDisney's live action version The Little MermaidThe Flash – pushback on casting Iris as BlackNetflix announces Squid Game is bigger than BridgertonWendy Chun – High-Tech orientalismConcept of “ships”/"shipping"Bong Joon-ho, Steven YeunBruce Lee (actor) vs. Kato in the Green Hornet (character)Simu Liu (actor) vs. Shang-Chi (character)Korean media wave: BTS, ParasiteFan fiction and diversity/inclusionSorry to Bother You (Boots Riley)Tenoch Huerta as Namor (Black Panther character)Oscar IsaacTony LeungLead Users and Democratizing Innovation book by Eric Von HippleRobert KozinetsReview of #Republic (and the value of deliberating enclaves) by David WeinbergerMichael Saler - a public sphere of the imaginationEpisode #79: Hope for New Online Public Spaces with Talia Stroud and Eli PariserShare your thoughts via Twitter with Henry, Colin and the How Do You Like It So Far? account!

We're speaking to all the authors shortlisted for the Women's Prize for Fiction 2021 and tonight it's the turn of Cherie Jones. Her novel, How the One-Armed Sister Sweeps Her House, is set on and around the Barbados beaches of the 80s. Lala braids tourists' hair in the idyllic setting but her home life is blighted by poverty, violence and lack of choices – and when she has a baby, a dangerous chain of events is set in motion. Cherie Jones talks about this debut novel that has been years in the writing. Anish Kapoor wrote an article earlier this month decrying what he described as a “hate-filled campaign to de-Islamify India…via the destruction of a world-class monument.” The monument he was referring to was India's Parliament which he said was “the greatest set of government buildings anywhere in the world.” Professor Sarover Zaidi, from the Jindal School of Art and Architecture, and BBC journalist Geeta Pandey, who is based in the BBC's Delhi bureau, join Samira to discuss the controversial Central Vista Project which aims to redevelop India's Parliamentary district. In Tanika Gupta's new play The Overseas Student the young man who comes from India to study Law is Mohandas Gandhi. While here he strove to fit in as an English gentleman, and was not politically active. But, the playwright tells Samira that his years living in Hammersmith and walking the streets of London shaped the man who became the great leader in India's independence movement.
