In Centre for Civil Society : A Journey in Time : Shah opens by invoking Milton Friedman's joint autobiography with Rose Friedman as a touchstone for his own sense of fortune.
In S. Divakara on Nani Palkhivala's Union Budget Commentaries : Friedman is invoked as a Forum collaborator and external validator of the extraordinary audience size at Palkhivala's lectures.
In Economic Reforms and the Relevance of Prof. B. R. Shenoy : Friedman's tribute to Shenoy is marshalled as authoritative external testimony to underscore how little India has acknowledged Shenoy's contribution even compared to international recognition.
In Corporate Governance : Godrej explicitly rejects the narrow shareholder-wealth definition associated with Milton Friedman, using Friedman as the named foil against which to define his own broader stakeholder-centred conception of corporate governance.
In Economic Prophecies : Friedman supplies the title and the canonisation: he had identified Shenoy as a 'prophet unhonoured in his own country' as early as 1963, and Amin's editorial frame uses Friedman's Nobel authority to vindicate Shenoy's career-long dirigisme critique.
