Hi There!
I am an economist. I received my Ph.D. in economics from Southern Methodist University, U.S.A., in 1977, having completed Bachelor's and Masters in Economics in India. I was a faculty member at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee (1978 to 1987), Indiana University - Bloomington (1987-1995) and the Indian Statistical Institute - Delhi Centre from 1995 to 2016. In May 2018, I completed a three-year visiting professorship at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Currently, I am a Courtesy Faculty at the University of South Florida.
My core areas of research are: (a) international trade (currently I am writing papers on trade in services), growth and development with particular emphasis on the service sector and (b) economics of terrorism and conflict. I am working on a book on the Economics of Terrorism, written at an upper-undergraduate level along with lots of facts, figures, history on terrorism which will be of interest to scholars in economics, political science, possibly criminology, professionals on national security matters as well as general public.. See my page Book in Making: Economic Analysis of Terrorism.
I am coauthoring with Dr. J. K. Goyal the second edition my earlier book, Microeconomics for Managers, published back in 2008. The second edition's title may be different but not decided as yet. See my page: Book in Making: Economics for Managers.
I am interested in macro issues especially business cycles .
I was the founding editor of a field journal, Indian Growth and Development Review, from 2007 to 2014. During 2011-2015, I served as the Head, Indian Statistical Institute - Delhi Centre.
