'Foolish to expect private sector to take care of everything'
French-American economist Esther Duflo, who shared the 2019 Nobel Prize for Economics with Abhijit Banerjee and Michael Kraemer, was in Kozhikode recently to speak at the Kerala Literature Festival. Her latest book, Poor Economics for Children (Juggernaut), revolves around the lives of children and adults living in a village that \"could be in India or Kenya or Vietnam or elsewhere\", and is based on the research presented in Poor Economics: Rethinking Poverty and the Ways to End It (2011), which Duflo co-wrote for adults with Banerjee (who is also her husband). In an interview with Chintan Girish Modi, she speaks about writing for children and why she thinks the poor are economically savvy and resourceful. Edited excerpts:
