Economics of Terrorism
As an economist, I am hardwired to believe that people respond to incentives. What possible incentive could there be to convince someone to end their lives for a cause? In this piece, I hope to peer into the economics of terrorism. As is with all activities in the globalist world, terrorism also requires resources. There are multiple options and sources and in the interest of remaining politically neutral, I do not wish to name any. Conventional wisdom and ‘experts’ in the media help us think that terrorists come from low-income households, have poor education and no understanding of what they are doing. However, a pioneer in the field,…

A potentially Risky Indo-US bonhomie
The country heaved a sigh of relief when the US Secretary of State Mike Pompey announced that the US is deploying its forces in Asia, (South China Sea) in order to counter the increasing threat posed by China. But what we blatantly failed to take account of, is the diplomatic changes in the Indian Foreign Policy, that might have been prompting China into such aggression. There is no denial of the fact that China has been trying to intrude our borders for quite a long period of time. It has a very cunning tactic when it comes to territorial annexation.
