India and the US in a Time of Democratic Erosion - a podcast by Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University

India and the US have both struggled with anti-democratic forces the last few years. What lessons do these countries' struggles have for each other -- and for us?

There’s no better person to talk with about these issues than Ashutosh Varshney, Professor of International Studies at Watson and the Director of Watson’s Center for Contemporary South Asia. He has a way of explaining familiar politics in unfamiliar ways, and in the process making connections that usually go unnoticed. On this episode, he and Sarah do just that as they discuss democratic erosion in the US and India, and how both countries might change during a Biden Administration.
