Usha Ramanathan believes that we have failed people in poverty. The state has systematically constructed them as illegal: encroachers, beggars, vagrants and defaulters, and we, the citizens, have looked away. But should we trade liberty for the sake of the poor? Haven't liberalized markets lifted m…
Lant Pritchett believes that the post-1990 promise—that every country could converge on becoming democratic, capable, and liberal—was always more fragile than its champions admitted. But what does the end of history actually look like? Why have some developing countries rejected western liberal ide…
Bhargavi Zaveri-Shah believes animals are sentient, and that sentience, not species, is what determines who counts morally. But why not limit moral consideration to the human species? What about pets and wild animals? And how does the mathematics of utility work? Bhargavi is a lawyer turned researc…

Isn't nationalism often linked with violence and exclusion? And is it fair to say that liberals aren't nationalists? Pranay Kotasthane is the Deputy Director…
Ajay Shah believes that global free trade is good, and that state autarky is a bad idea. Borders, he says, should be relatively open, and there should be low levels of control on people, goods, services and capital moving across borders. But what does openness really mean? Can controls on individu…
Kumar Anand believes that more liberty is always better than less liberty. As a libertarian, he argues that many problems can be traced back to too much state power and too little individual freedom. But what is liberty? Is it possible without coercion? And why is trading liberty for security a bad…
Shephali Bhatt argues that we cannot, and should not, separate art from the artist. To her, art is not created in a vacuum. It is an extension of the artist. But should art always be judged by its creator’s character? Can something deeply moving still be pure, even if its creator is not? And does t…
