The Creation of Poverty and Inequality in India
Poverty in India is intimately connected with caste, untouchability, colonialism and indentured servitude, inseparable from the international experience of slavery and race. Focusing on historical and modern practices, this book goes beyond traditional economic approaches to poverty and demonstrates its genesis in exclusion, isolation, domination and extraction resulting in the removal of human and economic rights. Examining cash and asset transfers, as well as the enhancement of women’s rights, primary health and education, it scrutinizes inadequacies in compensatory policies for redressing the balance. This is an original interdisciplinary contribution that offers bold domestic and international policies anchored in human radicalism to eradicate poverty.
Political activism as a determinant of clientelistic transfers
This paper contributes to the literature by developing a model of political clientelism based on an under-explored citizen attribute - political activism, in addition to two other attributes: political affiliation and income. The model uncovers the role of "politically active" individuals in their ability to influence and shape opinion, as well as the inclination of politicians to offer targeted transfers to this group in order to indirectly influence other voters (ie., activists or undecided voters).
Work and Health in India
The rapid economic growth experienced by India in the past few decades has radically transformed the nation's labor market, bringing millions of former agricultural workers into manufacturing industries, and, more recently, the expanding service industries, such as call centers and IT shops. Alongside this employment shift has come a change in health and health problems, as communicable diseases have become less common, while non-communicable diseases, like cardiovascular problems, have increased. This book connects those two trends to offer an analysis of effects of the work environment on the health of Indian workers that is unprecedented in scope and depth.

Convergence of Population Health Management, Pharmacogenomics, and Patient-Centered Care
The current healthcare framework, often characterized by standardized treatments and one-size-fits-all approaches, falls short in addressing the unique genetic compositions, lifestyles, and environmental factors that influence individual patient outcomes. This gap necessitates a radical reevaluation of healthcare practices, from reshaping infrastructure to redefining the roles of patients and doctors. The challenges are formidable, requiring critical reflection and bold initiatives to overcome obstacles and pave the way for a future where patient-centered care seamlessly integrates with population health management, leveraging data, technology, ethics, and collaboration for a global healthca...
