Sahasranshu Dash, Research Associate.

Sahasranshu Dash is an econometrician and consultant focused on business intelligence, transfer pricing, international taxation, and value chain analysis.
However, he has also worked and written extensively on issues such as the civil war in Myanmar, democratic backsliding, indigenous rights, and ecological concerns in Brazil, Turkish hyperinflation, the ethics of India’s Citizenship Amendment Act, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and a proposed one-state solution with equal rights for all in Israel-Palestine, and the limits of economic Thatcherism in modern Britain. Dash aims at a fundamental reimagining of social science, in particular international relations and macroeconomics, along Rawlsian and Nagelian lines instead of the amoral and cynical paradigms of ‘realism’ and ‘market efficiency’ that dominate extant discourse.
Dash also works as a research partner with the South Asia Institute of Research and Development in Kathmandu, Nepal. He writes regular columns for Modern Diplomacy and New Age. His current research interests revolve around refugee rights, institutional challenges to democracy and human rights, cybersecurity and electronic surveillance, the effects of artificial intelligence, and the Fourth Industrial Revolution on the labour market.
