I am a development economist based at the Indian Institute of Management - Ahmedabad, India. My special interests are looking at the development problems as they relate to agriculture and resources. I like to inquire about transaction costs, property rights and collective action problems with methodological interests in Pragmatism, institutionalism and Indian economic thought. I earned my PhD at the Humboldt University Berlin (2014) and previously taught at Department of Economics and Business Studies, SLU Uppsala.
