Research focus

My research interest lies in the intellectual tradition of critical management studies, especially the historicity of business schools in India from the perspective of Neoliberal governmentality and the implications of conducts on academic lived experiences. Some other dimensions of my academic interests are in exploring questions of identity, subjectivity, truth and power relations and freedom and autonomy in the context of academic labour and politico-ethical engagements of academics.
