SUMMARY:Book Talk | Dr. Dev Nathan
LOCATION:APJ 009\, FLAME University
DESCRIPTION:Title of the Book: \nKnowledge and Global Inequality Since 1800: Interrogat
 ing the Present as History\nSummary of the Book:\nThe Element highlights th
 e monopolization and exclusion from high-value knowledge in analysing diver
 gent and, recently, partially convergent income trends across 200-odd years
  of the global capitalist economy. A Southern lens interrogates this histor
 y, in the process showing how developing command over knowledge creation sh
 eds light on the middle-income trap. Overall, it shows a new way of looking
  at global capitalist economic history, highlighting the creation of, comma
 nd over and exclusion from knowledge. This forces us to analyse the role of
  the subjective or agential element in making history; a subjective element
  that, however, always works from within and transforms existing structures
  and processes.\nSpeaker Bio:\nDev Nathan, an economist, is a Visiting Scho
 lar at The New School for Social Research, New York; a Visiting Professor a
 t the Institute for Human Development, New Delhi; and the Research Director
  at the GenDev Centre for Research and Innovation. His main research intere
 sts are global production, development issues of indigenous peoples and gen
 der relations. He is co-editor of the Cambridge University Press series on 
 Global Value Chains. His recent co-authored books include Reverse Subsidies
  in Global Monopsony Capitalism, 2022; and Witch Hunts: Culture, Patriarchy
  and Structural Transformation, 2020. He is currently working on the manner
  in which the organization of the knowledge economy interacts with inequali
 ty in the global economy and between genders. \n
