  • What is Starmerism? (w/ George Eaton)

    What is Starmerism? (w/ George Eaton)
    May 6 2024
    Given the local and mayoral elections in England and Wales I've taken a break from my India series to look at politics closer to home. In this episode I speak to George Eaton from the New Statesman about the nature of "Starmerism" and what Labour would do if - as seems very likely - they get into power at the next general election.

  • India's Election: A Democracy Without Freedom? (w/ Alpa Shah)

    India's Election: A Democracy Without Freedom? (w/ Alpa Shah)
    Apr 29 2024

    India's elections are the world's largest. But in a context in which Modi's political opponents are subject to arbitrary arrest, can we really call the country a democracy?


    LSE Anthropologist Alpa Shah thinks we shouldn't, and in her new book 'The Incarcerations' she explains how the arrest of 16 intellectuals and activists symbolises India's slide into authoritarianism, and even fascism.
