Based on my work with Rana Hasan, @BeyzaMarchand & J Cain, I challenge Banerjee & Duflo on trade & poverty in their new book. Present at IPF conf we presented our work in, they chose to be silent in their book about it. @APanagariya @D_A_Irwin @rodrikdani m.economictimes.com/news/economy/f…

New paper I’ve coauthored with Bandyopadhyay, Basu and Chau, which looks at challenges created by task offshoring to enforcement of trade agreements and dispute settlement rules, and the role of well-enforced labor standards in such circumstances. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
LISTEN via @NPR: Professor @DevashishMitra_ shares where he thinks India's economic and geopolitical relationships will go after the Trump administration imposed 50% tariffs on Indian goods. n.pr/3JNNmDV
Via @guardian: “India did consider the US an ally. It was a country that the US was relying on as a counter to China in that region. So it had a huge geopolitical importance, but it doesn’t seem like Trump values any of that,” says Prof. @DevashishMitra_. bit.ly/4lImkec
Brilliant piece! thehill.com/opinion/intern…
Trump's trade war probably qualifies as the greatest madness in economic policy in a developed country after WWII: 1. All decisions are made by one single person (Trump). 2. No principles are applied. 3. No economic rationale or theory. 4. All is based on Trump's emotions. /1
This is awful. Reliable economic data is a key strength of the US economy. When Argentina and Greece faked economic data it contributed to major crises. I don't think Trump will be able to fake the data given the procedures. But there is now a risk plus an awful appearance.
Pretty soon all economic and jobs data released by the federal government will be handwritten with a black Sharpie
Summed up very well.
If he is hell bent on destroying 75 years of transatlantic partnership and the relationship with Canada, dismantle the entire post War alliance structure, alienate allies like Australia and Japan, push ASEAN countries closer to China and chicken out from taking on China, then…
There is a simple explanation for Grassley giving up every principle he ever upheld in order approve Trump's law-breaking judge en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pat_Grass…
LOL Republicans voted *yesterday* to dismiss allegations by three separate whistleblowers about Emil Bove and confirm him anyway
Indeed, this won’t go well at all with New Delhi.
So China gets another extension while India gets smacked with 25% and threats on oil purchases. The contrast won't be lost on anyone in Delhi.
Trump's tariffs threaten to weaken the stability of the global trading system, explains economist @DevashishMitra_ ti.me/3H6uQWk

Covid had “disproportionate effects on ethnic minority groups…..Additionally, socioeconomic variables including income inequality, residential segregation and lack of health insurance coverage are…..significant contributors to these disparities.”

Why the US and the WTO should part ways
The US embrace of power politics in the trade arena violates both the letter and spirit of the WTO’s General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, undermining the integrity of the multilateral trading...
Congrats to England on their excellent win in a hard fought test match. Bad fielding and poor batting by the long tail did it to India. Catches certainly do win matches. I also think Gambhir is a poor coach, not well-equipped to motivate a young team.
After every tragedy, the vultures flock in first. 1. Media vultures - who make things even worse with their shrill sensationalism. 2. Agenda vultures - who never lose an opportunity to heartlessly plug their narrative. 3. Conspiracy vultures - who immediately indulge in baseless…
Here's the president of the U.S. telling a private company how it must make its products, on pain of seeing a massive, government-imposed increase in its input costs. I very rarely use the word "fascist," but this is unconstitutional, fascist nonsense.
