About Shruti Rajagopalan
In Get Down and Shruti, I write about all things Indian political economy and culture. I have spent the last two decades studying India as a student of economics and law and thinking about various problems and puzzles posed by the Indian political economy. My goal is to provide context on various aspects of India. I lead the Indian political economy program at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University and direct their Emergent Ventures moonshot grants program for India. And I host the Ideas of India podcast.
Before joining the Mercatus Center I followed the typical path of an American academic.
