Arundhati Roy Named One of Top 100 Global Thinkers
Arundhati Roy has been named one of the Top 100 Global Thinkers of 2011 by Foreign Policy magazine. In her profile, the magazine says, "[Roy] has put her finger on the very real cost of India's economic boom. "We are watching a democracy turning on itself, trying to eat its own limbs," she warns. The Global Thinkers were honored at a reception in Washington, DC, on December 1 at the historic Meridian House.
Roy is the award-winning author of many books, including The God of Small Things, Ordinary Person's Guide to Empire, Power Politics, and Field Notes on Democracy: Listening to Grasshoppers. Her more recent book is Walking with the Comrades.
