PROMISES TO KEEP: RAJAN (INDIA'S FORMER CENTRAL BANKER) REVEALS THAT INDIA IS A REPUBLIC. . . STILL1/29/2019 Boundless Aspirations: The Republic Has Promises To Keep quoting Raghuram Rajan via The Times of India This year, India’s 70th in its existence as a republic, is also the year its economy is billed to overtake that of Britain in size, and become the world’s fifth largest economy. Of course, there could be pitfalls on the way in this, an election year. India could easily spook investors if, say, the Modi government were to raid RBI’s reserves now that Urjit Patel – its ‘inconvenient’ governor – is out of the way; or if elections were to lead to its replacement by an impossibly ‘khichdi’ government.

with Raghuram Rajan via Brookings InstitutionAs markets are embedded in a web of human relations, values and norms, they are impacted by human events. Indeed, throughout history, technological advancements have displaced the market from its traditional webs, precipitating sometimes violent backlashes and periods of surging populism.
