  • Author : Rashmi Sadana
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2021-12-07
  • ISBN : 0520383966
  • Pages : 262 pages

Download or read book The Moving City written by Rashmi Sadana and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Moving City is a rich and intimate account of urban transformation told through the story of Delhi's Metro, a massive infrastructure project that is reshaping the city's social and urban landscapes. Ethnographic vignettes introduce the feel and form of the Metro and let readers experience the city, scene by scene, stop by stop, as if they, too, have come along for the ride. Laying bare the radical possibilities and concretized inequalities of the Metro, and how people live with and through its built environment, this is a story of women and men on the move, the nature of Indian aspiration, and what it takes morally and materially to sustain urban life. Through exquisite prose, Rashmi Sadana transports the reader to a city shaped by both its Metro and those who depend on it, revealing a perspective on Delhi unlike any other.
