India

Guests: Eric Hyer, Ph.D., Professor of Political Science and International Relations at BYU; Benjamin Cohen, Ph.D., Professor of Environmental Humanities at the University of Utah; Tahira Carroll, Ph.D., Teacher of Hindi at BYU  India is the second largest country in the world and the largest democratic nation, with a population four times the United States.  This is also a critical time for India as it jostles with China for global attention and superpower status. When the Chinese stock market began crashing recently, there was a fair amount of talk among Indian leaders about this being the moment to show how India’s economy is outshining its neighbors.
