Book Description:
|
Explores new, yet less explored space of urban poverty - rehabilitation housing that houses the displaced poor and increasingly dots the peripheries of Indian cities and examines the politics of the poor focusing on law, citizenship and gender. It studies how the state produces illegalities, and how state institutions and actors stand to gain.
