Tariq Ali is an Associate Professor at the School of Foreign Service. His research and teaching focus on nineteenth and twentieth century South Asia and global histories of capital. He examines how transnational circulations of commodities and capital shape the material and everyday lives of ordinary people.
His first book, A Local History of Global Capital: Jute and Peasant Life in the Bengal Delta (2018), analyzed how global capitalism influenced peasant life in the Bengal delta during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His current project explores decolonization, nation-state formation, and how these processes restructured the working lives of peasants, boatmen, traders, and small businessmen in post-colonial East Pakistan (present-day Bangladesh) during the 1950s and 1960s.
