Aadisht Khanna has a funny take on elections in IIM Bangalore which develop into an anarcho capitalist epiphany for him.
Also reminds me of Chandrachoodan Gopalakrishnan’s anarcho capitalist musings some months ago. (it’s on his old blog, and the comments by Ravikiran are worth reading)
Happy to see the “anar” section of AnarCapLib developing roots!

Interesting piece of news: Reliance plans to do a Wal-Mart in India.
Considering that the cartel had an small debate on the issue barely a month back, I’d love to continue it in the light of the “Reliance in retail” angle.
My take is that the retail market is ripe, not just at the high end, but […]

Don Boudreaux at Cafe Hayek (which is fast becoming my favourite blog) looks behind the facade of jobs and job creation.
On the drive from Sofia to Jundola, we saw women in the fields cutting hay with large scythes, just as I suspect it was done there 100 years ago � just as I suspect it […]

Somebody ought to tell Jivha that 01 April was more than three months back.

Unless he’s serious, in which case the Cartel offers its condolences. Maybe he can finally take a vacation.

Update: Seeing that the Indian blogosphere is running low on quality posts in the last week or two, anyone want to suggest a good […]

Whatever you might say about Delhi, it has glorious roads to drive on. I met up with Sruthijith this morning and we went riding on his new Pulsar from Hauz Khas in South Delhi to Gulmohar Park and then Shahajehan Road.
The only hitch was the infernal “helmet rule.” You’ve got to wear a helmet […]

I’m flyng to Delhi on Sunday morning (July 18) and I’ll be there till Tuesday evening (July 20). As usual, bloggers who’d like to meet up, please email me on yazad_j [at] yahoo [dot] com. Sunday is largely free. Monday is completely booked and Tuesday is open, but work takes precedence. I’d most probably be […]

Before The Cartel pronounces its verdict on our new Finance Minister’s budget, what are the opinions of AnarCapLib readers? Are you happy? Sad? Excited? Depressed?
If you have written an opinion on your own blog, send a trackback to this entry.
Update: Nilu asks a valid question:

In a typically of the Indian way of doing things, […]

Libertarian principles sometimes lead to “icky” solutions for certain problems. Let’s take sex selection of foetuses as an example. A libertarian would not advocate banning the practice, although it leads to a skewed male-female ratio and aggravates many social problems. I’d say “let it be” — no need for regulation here.
Those who disagree, please […]

The Economist is sceptical of the economic and allied benefits of hosting big sporting events like Euro 2004 or the Olympics, especially if host countries like Portugal and Greece are small and have struggling economies. (Subscription article)
The tournament will surely give the Portuguese economy a bit of zing over the summer. For the past month […]

Bill Clinton’s autobiography might be topping best seller lists, but the Economist obviously doesn’t think too much of it.
The former president’s long-winded account of his journey from poverty in Arkansas to million-dollar book advances, via Oxford and the White House. Long on lists and short on editorial discipline, it seems fated to lie unread on […]
