Sense and Solidarity: Jholawala Economics for Everyone is a collection of essays by development economist Jean Dreze that presents economics as a public and moral inquiry rather than a purely technical discipline. Rooted in fieldwork, policy debates, and long engagement with rural India, the book examines hunger, poverty, education, health, employment, food security, and democratic accountability. Its central purpose is to defend what Dreze calls jholawala economics, a perspective often dismissed by elites but grounded in direct observation of social conditions and in concern for the lived realities of marginalized people. The book blends quantitative reasoning with activist insight, showing how research can inform public action when it is connected to communities rather than detached from them. It is written for readers who want to understand Indian development through evidence, ethics, and social solidarity, and it argues that economic analysis must be judged by its capacity to address inequality and human deprivation.
