Description

This newsletter is really a public policy thought-letter. While excellent newsletters on specific themes within public policy already exist, this thought-letter is about frameworks, mental models, and key ideas that will hopefully help you think about any public policy problem in imaginative ways. It seeks to answer just one question: how do I think about a particular public policy problem/solution? Welcome to the mid-week edition in which we write essays on a public policy theme.

If you have any feedback, please send it to us. <a href="https://publicpolicy.substack.com/account/add-podcast">Listen in podcast app</a> - RSJ There’s that old joke about outrunning the bear: Two campers are walking through a forest when they see a bear about a hundred feet away.

You just need to out-atmanirbhar them.   It is difficult to find a single interview of any business leader these days without a reference to Atmanirbhar Bharat. Every company is working to be atmanirbhar including those whose business model is founded on free international trade (Exhibit A:  <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/xiaomi-more-indian-smartphone-brand-than-any-other-manu-jain/articleshow/76484333.cms">Xiaomi ‘more Indian’ smart
