Nimish Adhia is an associate professor of economics at Manhattanville College in Purchase, New York, where he teaches  International Economics, Economics of Developing Countries, and the Intellectual History of Capitalism. Having lived in India, Saudi Arabia, and the US, his research interest is in understanding what different people at different times have believed about markets, commerce, and the profit motive.
