Shruti Rajagopalan narrates the history of liberal ideas and policy in India, from the 1920s to today, based on her coauthored article “Liberalism in India.” The conversation mentions B. R. Shenoy’s 1955 “Note of Dissent” (regarding the Planning Commission’s draft of the Second Five Year Plan), the brief text of which may be found on the website of the India Policy Institute (link, .pdf).
Arthur Melzer is the author of the landmark book Philosophy Between the Lines: The Lost History of Esoteric Writing (University of Chicago Press, 2014). A chapter of the book, “A Beginner’s Guide to Esoteric Reading,” on techniques and devices used in esoteric writing, was republished in the May 2015 issue of EJW. The conversation, however, takes up Melzer’s entire book. The conversation is long and covers most of the important ideas of the book, and is divided into two parts.
