Today, Noam Maggor (@maggor.bsky.social) concludes our symposium on @jasonbjackson.bsky.social's *Traders, Speculators, and Captains of Industry.*
Although rooted in Indian history, he argues, the book’s thoroughly global-comparative mode of analysis allows it to resonate far beyond South Asia.
At the core of Jason Jackson's Traders, Speculators, and Captains of Industry is a longstanding conversation among Indian modernizers about how to identify and nurture the ‘right’ kind of capitalists.
