Event Description : LILA PRISM Series "International Economic Relations And Internal Governance" a talk by Rajat Kathuria, Director and Chief Executive, Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relations 

Intro:
The lecture by Rajat Kathuria explores to what extent institutions must be resistant to change, and how quickly they ought to respond to the signs of growth. Rajat Kathuria is Director and Chief Executive at Indian Council for Research on International Economic Relations (ICRIER), New Delhi. 

Abstract:
Where rapid growth is considered the key to unlocking prosperity, one of governance’s most fundamental tasks is to ensure that the path for growth is just and free of obstacles. Institutions thus exist as “rules of the game” – whether designed or emergent, they set the stage on which development must be shaped. However, while the insight that good institutions can enable growth is important, it may also be true that where nations grow rapidly, they may outpace these institutions and act outside “the game” previously defined. In an age of instant information where change is rapid and ubiquitous, institutions can find themselves handicapped in their role of infusing growth with order. How much should institutions be resistant to change, and how quickly ought they to respond? Should institutions exist independent of those that they are helmed by?
