中文简介:
Rae教授讨论了Aravind Adiga的小说“白虎”。该小说揭示了发展中国家面临解决根深蒂固的不平等的困难。腐败和长期寻租行为可能成为主要障碍。还探讨了小说的其他方面,包括印度的宗教历史,种姓结构的作用和企业家精神。小说和以前关于资本主义本质的课堂讨论的主题之间建立了联系。
课程简介: Professor Rae discusses Aravind Adiga's novel The White Tiger. The novel reveals the difficulties developing countries face dismantling entrenched inequalities. Corruption and chronic rent-seeking behavior can be major obstacles. Other aspects of the novel, including India's religious history, the role of caste structure, and entrepreneurialism, are also explored. Links are made between themes from the novel and previous class discussions on the nature of capitalism.
