I'm a PhD candidate in economics at Brown University, USA. I do research in economic growth and development, political economy, culture, and population. My focus is on how inter-group attitudes are shaped, and how they affect development; what is the role of deep-rooted historical factors in comparative development; and how autocratic regimes transition to democracy, and what is the role of societal social values in this process. I do research and teach at Brown. Before, I was working at Higher School of Economics (Moscow, Russia).

I am a social anthropologist who investigates anthropological and social theory from its margins by paying attention to the experience of peasants and other groups of poor people in India. I employ anthropology’s traditional emphasis on a deep understanding of a place or people as a vantage point from which to critique and expand received ideas in a social theory. I have been conducting a rigorous ethnographic research in the Himalayan borderlands since 1994 where I have combined cultural and sociological analyses of institutions and social life to respond to questions raised by postcolonial theory. I am interested in the themes of cultural politics of development and the postcolonial state in the inclusive policy
