	Asia Times Online Community and News Discussion - Centerist & Conservative: National Govt in India?
		As renowned economist Lord Meghnad Desai and Nobel laureate Amartya Sen debated on kindred issues like nationhood, poverty and development, scathingly original ideas -- Desai's "grand coalition between Congress and BJP," for instance -- were tossed about to shock and awe the audience, generating much heat and light in the process.
		Desai propounded his idea of India as a loose coalition of sub-nationalities, as opposed to the syncretic vision of India articulated by India's first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru.
		The standard way to get rid of public opinion is to have two parties which on paper differ in their ideological world view but in reality are steeped in the same centrist-right policy making.

	MSN India - Nargis is Meghnad Desai's new muse (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		For Desai, a Labour peer and professor emeritus at the London School of Economics, writing about Nargis is "a matter of downloading nostalgia, and preserving memories of growing up in the 1950s.
		What impresses Desai, who traverses between the worlds of high academia and popular culture with equal ease, the most about Nargis is her courage to be herself.
		His foray into unravelling popular culture apart, Desai, whose diverse oeuvre includes "Development and Nationhood" and "Marx's Revenge", is essentially radical in his thinking, radical in the root sense of the word.

		In "Marx's Revenge" the distinguished economists Meghnad Desai argues that capitalism's recent efflorescence is something Karl Marx anticipated and indeed would, in a certain sense, have welcomed.
		Desai believes that the growth of global Capatalism is now back on course, after much of the world embarked on various socialist and communist economic experiments for much of the 20th century.

		Desai offers an excellent historical overview of the development of the various competing forms of socialism as well as an intricate discussion of Marx's theories of profit and growth as put forth in Das Kapital.
