Download or read book Delhi Metropolitan written by Ranjana Sengupta and published by Penguin Books India. This book was released on 2007 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'My Understanding Of This Ferocious, Restless, Relentless Metropolis Is That Each Of Us Who Lives In This City Carries A Unique, If Virtual, Delhi Inside Our Heads.' Independence, Four Million Refugees From Pakistan And The Overwhelming Presence Of Visible And Invisible Power That Flows From New Delhi Being The Capital Have Transformed It From The Unruffled Imperial Town It Once Was To The Fearsome Metropolis It Is Today. And Yet, Says Ranjana Sengupta, This Largely Unloved City Deserves To Be Loved. Delhi Is Home To The Most Diverse Population Of Any City In The Country. The Unceasing Influx Of Migrants Has Unleashed New Urban Architectures Of Opulence And Deprivation. Different Groups Have Set Up Their Own, Different Universes, And These Manage To Coexist, Not Unhappily. And Somewhere Between The Futurist Gurgaon Skyline And The Proliferating Slums, Alongside The March Of The Metro And The Refurbishment Of Khan Market, Lie Delhi'S Unsung Sagas The Memories, The Passions And The Unspoken Expectation That The City Will Change Lives. Sengupta Illustrates How Delhi Is Essentially The Creation Of Refugees Of All Kinds, From Those Fleeing Plundered Homes Within And Across The Border To The Adventurers Who Have Flocked To The City For The Greater Opportunities Of Employment Or Simply To Be Close To The Hub Of Political Power. The Newer Delhi, She Says, In Its Turn Gained From The Accumulated And Diverse Talent And Capital It Acquired From These People, Although Haphazard Development Poses A Great Danger To It. Delhi Metropolitan Tracks The Changes From The Time 'Going To Cp' Was Almost The Only Leisure Activity For The Middle Class, Looks At The Subtle Reinventions Of Government Colonies And The Shining New Suburbs, And Inspects The Footprints Of 'Punjabification'. Have All These Actually Managed To Colonize This Extravagant, Indefinable And Unlikely City? In A Work Of Immense Detail, At Once Informed And Entertaining, Ranjana Sengupta Proffers An Answer.

Download or read book Social Justice written by K. V. Cybil and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-04-08 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the political and philosophical underpinnings of exclusion and social injustice in India. It examines social movements, anti-caste uprisings, reformers like Ambedkar and Narayana Guru and writers like Foucault and Serres to establish a link between the political and social milieu of the idea of nationhood. Going beyond the legal framework of justice, the essays in the volume reassemble the social from popular perception and the margins, and challenge Rawlsian and Eurocentric paradigms which have dominated discourse on social injustice. The volume also draws on instances of history as well as contemporary issues, as well as locating them in the context of social and post-colonial theory. An intellectually stimulating yet subaltern engagement with the idea of justice, the volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of social theory, law, modern South Asian history and social exclusion and discrimination studies.

Download or read book In the Public s Interest written by Gautam Bhan and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the recent legacy of basti “evictions” in Delhi—mass clearings of some of the city’s poorest neighborhoods—as a way to understand how the urban poor are disenfranchised in the name of “public interest” and, in the case of Delhi, by the very courts meant to empower and protect them. Studying bastes, says Gautam Bhan, provokes six clear lines of inquiry applicable to studies of urbanism across the global south. The first is the long-standing debate over urban informality and illegality: the debate’s impact on conceptions and practices of urban planning, the production of space, and the regulation of value. The second is a set of debates on “good governance,” read through their intersections with ideas of “planned development” within rapidly transforming cities. The third is the political field of urban citizenship and the possibilities of substantive rights and belonging in the city. The fourth is resistance and the ability of a city’s subaltern residents to struggle against exclusion. The two remaining inquiries both cut across and unify the first four. One of these is the role of the judiciary and the relationships between law and urbanism in cities of the global south. The other is the relationship between democracy and inequality in the city. What emerges about Delhi in particular are a set of new modes for the reproduction of inequality. When rights are lost, citizenship is unequal and differentiated, the promise of development is refused, and poverty and inequality are reproduced and deepened. The task at hand, says Bhan, is not just to explain evictions but also to listen to what they are telling us about “the city that is as well as the city that can be.”

Download or read book Marx in the Field written by Alessandra Mezzadri and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marx in the Field is a unique edited collection illustrating the relevance of the Marxian method to study contemporary capitalism and the global development process. Essays in the collection bring Marx ‘to the field’ in three ways. They illustrate how Marxian categories can be concretely deployed for field research in the global economy, they analyse how these categories may be adapted during fieldwork and they discuss data collection methods supporting Marxian analysis. Crucially, many of the contributions expand the scope of Marxian analysis by combining its insights with those of other intellectual traditions, including radical feminisms, critical realism and postcolonial studies. The book defines the possibilities and challenges of fieldwork guided by Marxian analysis, including those emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic. The collection takes a global approach to the study of development and of contemporary capitalism. While some essays focus on themes and geographical areas of long-term concern for international development – like informal or rural poverty and work across South Asia, Southern and West Africa, or South America – others focus instead on actors benefitting from the development process - like regional exporters, larger farmers, and traders – or on unequal socio-economic outcomes across richer and emerging economies and regions – including Gulf countries, North America, Southern Europe, or Post-Soviet Central and Eastern Europe. Some essays explore global processes cutting across the world economy, connecting multiple regions, actors and inequalities. While some of the contributions focus on classic Marxian tropes in the study of contemporary capitalism – like class, labour and working conditions, agrarian change, or global commodity chains and prices – others aim at demonstrating the relevance of the Marxian method beyond its traditional boundaries – for instance, for exploring the interplays between food, nutrition and poverty; the links between social reproduction, gender and homework; the features of migration and refugees regimes, tribal chieftaincy structures or prison labour; or the dynamics structuring global surrogacy. Overall, through the analysis of an extremely varied set of concrete settings and cases, this book illustrates the extraordinary insights we can gain by bringing Marx in the field.

Singh and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water is vital to life, maintenance of ecological balance, economic development, and sustenance of civilization. Planning and management of water resources and its optimal use are a matter of urgency for most countries of the world, and even more so for India with a huge population. Growing population and expanding economic activities exert increasing demands on water for varied needs--domestic, industrial, agricultural, power generation, navigation, recreation, etc. In India, agriculture is the highest user of water. The past three decades have witnessed numerous advances as well as have presented intriguing challenges and exciting opportunities in hydrology and water resources. Compounding them has been the growing environmental consciousness. Nowhere are these challenges more apparent than in India. As we approach the twenty first century, it is entirely fitting to take stock of what has been accomplished and what remains to be accomplished, and what accomplishments are relevant, with particular reference to Indian conditions.
