Capitalism in India was historically rooted in community. Trust, networks, and norms substituted for missing institutions. How did informal institutions evolve over time as social and economic contexts changed?

My PhD thesis is driven by this central question. From this flow my scholarly interests: culture and institutions, especially the relationship between community/networks/social capital and entrepreneurship; family businesses and corporate governance; gender and enterprise; and the evolving place of informal institutions in a global economy.
