We lost our colleague and friend Anwar Shaikh yesterday. The moment is still too shocking and raw to offer a fitting celebration of his contributions to critical and radical economic thinking across five decades. For now, let his own words to @histmat journal describe the analytical and political visions Anwar left for us.

Anwar Shaikh ist gestorben. Er war der wohl wichtigste lebende antikapitalistische Ökonom – weil er den Kapitalismus verstanden hatte. Und er hat dieses Wissen an Generationen weitergegeben.

📢I am pleased to share that my research paper📜, "Caste, Occupations, and (Im)mobility in Modern Indian Industry, 1870–2006", is now out in print. To the best of my knowledge, it is among the first comprehensive accounts that examines the interplay between caste and occupational choices in a modern, urban industrial setting in India over more than a century.
