Amartya Sen is really a brilliant thinker who understands that one must always question the world that we live in. His breadth as well as depth of understanding of what i call just knowledge (instead of Economics or Politics etc) is truly mind-blowing and has given him the tools to engage with serious problems that affect the poor of this earth and propose useful and insightful solutions to their problems. Truly amamzing
The amount of material covered here is immense that could easily span a whole academic university year

and I guess you possess that sir as you have identified it which I couldn’t that much as I am way more backdated in knowledge which here had been citied.
Dr. Amarty Sen is referred across the World as the Conscience of Economics . One of my metarnal Aunty, studying Physics in the same batch in Presidency College under Calcutta University, told me oneday that throughout his student life whether in School / College/ University in every Examination he stood First always and the depth & spread of his knowledge is amazing which includes his mastery in different subjects eg Economics , Mathematics, Phylosophy, History & Culture, Bengali, Sanskrit , English Literature and so on.

One stood first all along in the class dose not mean he possess good character and honesty in his financial activities.
His work on famines is still considered the gold standard in the study of famines.
You can see Mr.Keisler was mesmerized interviewing the brilliant thinker.
Visva Bharati is the only unique institution that exists in India. And underrated too. The Government of India must spend more money to modernize its infrastructure.
The issue of interdisciplinary academic activities has to be undertaken by leading universities in India too.
Very interesting Conversation with Dr. Sen. He comes across as a vibrant political and economic activist who will address the problems of world poor, including a billion poor living in India... One nice thing about Dr. Sen is he remained as an Indian citizen while roaming around the world for higher education and for high paying prestigious jobs.. He is the only living Nobel Laureate from India... Dr. R. Venkataraman (Nobel prize winner for Biochemistry) is Naturalized US Citizen.
every single time i find a new amazing thinker there's a conversation with history with them!
very insightful ... thank you for uploading!!!
You are great sir.
Welfare economics made easy by Sen His contribution to the study of drought-induced famine in Ethiopia and the economic causes behind that NAT CAT Event is most remarkable.
Proud to be a Bengali..
comes after seeing today news Amartya Kumar Sen, Indian economist and Nobel Laureate was awarded Spain’s top Princess of Asturias Award in the Social Sciences category.
I'd like to see also a conversation with Appadurai, thanks!
for people who might not know ... Amartya Sen has over 80 PhDs............

Over 90 honorary awards commonly doctorates (2024). Is it correct to call them PhDs when they’re explicitly distinct?
Hand-down the most inspiring person in the world of economics. Any suggestions for anyone else I should check out for human development ideas? Anybody got any critical responses to Sen's research that they can DM me? Thanks in advance.

Human development economics is just a side and lightweight economic stream. And within that particular stream try Stiglitz.

how can i get script of this convesation?
I don't really think that the utilitarian model breaks down as he says when we consider people's lowered expectations and the joy they experience from a small relief from agony. I think that the utilitarian perspective can be expanded to not only judge the status of an outcome for an individual based on his/her desires/satisfaction, but rather to judge those outcomes from universal expectations. So a scrap of food is better than no food, but how does that compare with our situation...

you may disagree but using abusive language reflects badly on your understanding of any subject, let alone one of importance like this.
There is no Nobel Prize in Economics

@MrRajivDhawan That is hilariously ridiculous. Keep reading those conspiracy blogs Rajiv!
@mrRAJIV dhawan: what kind of rational fool are u? this is really news to the world!
Haha wait, you think Sen and his influence on human development crashed Greece and you are championing Friedman and the Chicago school as the pinnacle of thought in economics? You need a reality check, homie.

Amartya Sen should not speak about Bengali Culture and About the Hinduism . A man living with Third wife in USA and have no direct contributions economic and education should shy his mouth. He is a person who illegally occupied Vishabharati University land and enjoys Free Air Flight 21 times within 5 years for being Awarded Bharat Ratna . Most of the Awardees not even accepted free Air travel for once including Tendulakar! He is a die hard Trinamool Congress Goons. Most of the Indians hate for his illegal activities.
