The Argumentative Indian: Writings on Indian History, Culture and
Identity
by Amartya Sen
Allen Lane =A325, pp409

This needs saying at the outset. In itself, it might seem like an
unremarkable fact, but it actually is not: Amartya Sen is a citizen of
India. While most of his countrymen who have been able to leave India
for a long time try their best to become citizens of the country they
might have gone to (Britain, America, Canada, Australia), Sen, a man
whom Cambridge and Harvard are said to have fought over for the
privilege of offering an appointment, resolutely retains his blue
Indian passport after half a century of towering intellectual
achievement across the world.
