Contesting the Indian City cover

Contesting the Indian City features a collection of cutting-edge empirical studies that offer insights into issues of politics, equity, and space relating to urban development in modern India.

  • Features studies that serve to deepen our theoretical understandings of the changes that Indian cities are experiencing
  • Examines how urban redevelopment policy and planning, and reforms of urban politics and real estate markets, are shaping urban spatial change in India
  • The first volume to bring themes of urban political reform, municipal finance, land markets, and real estate industry together in an international publication

 

“This volume is sure to provide a useful set of framings and background for scholars, policy-makers and activists to make sense of fragmented and undemocratic governance in India’s cities.”  (Urban Studies, 1 May 2015)
