You, Me & the Economy

Time Of Monsters:Fascism and the Fusion of the State and the Corporation | In conversation with Aditya Nigam

In this episode, Aditya Nigam traces how India’s political economy has been shaped by a deep intertwining of state and capital  from colonial legacies to neoliberal transformations. He explores the erosion of democratic spaces, the consolidation of corporate power, and the urgent need to reclaim economic sovereignty in the Global South.

Tune in as Nigam reflects on history, power, and resistance and why breaking free from entrenched imperial logics is essential for a just future.
