  Welcome to the LSE Events podcast by the London School of Economics and Political Science.

• 00:07

  Get ready to hear from some of the most influential international figures in the social sciences.

• 00:14

  Okay, hello.

• 00:16

  A very warm welcome to you all to the LSE.

• 00:19

  I'm Sarah Horrell, a professor in the Department of Economic History,

• 00:23

  and I'm very pleased to introduce Vishnapriya Gupta as our speaker tonight,

• 00:28

  who will be talking about her book and economic history of India.

• 00:33

  The book will be available for purchase and signing after the event.

• 00:38

  There's also a reception just outside, as you've probably seen,

• 00:42

  to which you're all very warmly invited, so please do come along after that.

• 00:47

  Now, before I properly introduce Vishnu,

• 00:49

  I just need to do a few housekeeping duties, the rules of engagement.

• 00:54

  We are a hybrid event, so it's being recorded.

• 00:57

  We've also got an online audience at the moment.

• 01:01

  So we're going to keep questions until the end of the talk, if that's okay.

• 01:06

  We are on social media.

• 01:09

  There is a hashtag, LSE events, so if you do want to put anything on social media, please feel free.

• 01:16

  And can I ask you to silence your phones as well, just in case anyone hasn't remembered to do that?

• 01:22

  So as I say, at the end we'll take questions.

• 01:24

  Those will be both online, so I'll take ones from people that are online, and in the room.
