大象传媒

We are in New Delhi today, where the 大象传媒's Anu Anand is looking at women in the Indian workforce. What is holding them back? And, how are they slowly acquiring new skills to break out. Inequality in the country is also still a huge problem - as 'rockstar' economist Thomas Piketty tells the programme.

Finally, we look at the latest incarnation of Barbie - who now comes in various body shapes, and the huge financial undertaking behind the move. Our guests today are Alison Van Diggelen of radio programme Fresh Dialogues in San Francisco, and Jayati Ghosh, Professor of Economics at Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi.
