On 29 and 30 August 2014 the Economics Group held an international conference to honour Professor Amitava Bose, who retired last year. He joined the Institute in 1974 and has served it continuously since then including a five-year tenure as Director during 1997-2002. He continues to participate in teaching as a Guest Faculty. One of the most well known economic theorists of the country, Professor Bose is also a very successful teacher and institution builder. To honour him, a number of renowned economists from India and abroad assembled in the Institute to present papers and participate in a panel discussion. They included his teachers, his peers and his students. Current stagnation of the Indian economy, the trend in global inequality, a novel social accounting framework for India and a fresh look at stability of Walrasian Equilibrium is a randomly picked sample of topics that will give an idea of the very wide range of issues discussed over these two days
