About this listen
Public policy shapes our lives, but how these decisions are made is often misunderstood.
This CPPR podcast—the first of our five-part series on the book, "Public Choice – A Primer" by Dr Eamonn Butler—introduces our audience to Public Choice Theory.
Public Choice applies economics to politics, showing how voters, politicians, and bureaucrats act in self-interest—just like in markets. In this five-part series, we explore democracy, voting, bureaucracy, and governance through this lens.
Episode 1 unpacks the origins and relevance of Public Choice for citizens, students, and policymakers in India and beyond.
Speaker:
Rahul V Kumar, Research Fellow (Market Economics), Centre for Public Policy Research (CPPR), Kochi
Moderator:
Jofi J Francis, Senior Associate (Project Administration), Centre for Public Policy Research (CPPR), Kerala
Tune in for an insightful conversation that unpacks the hidden mechanics of power, incentives, and decision-making that quietly shape our everyday lives.
