This comparative history of popular protest in twentieth-century Shanghai and Mumbai examines urban spatial politics - workplace, housing, civic space - and patterns of political conflict. It explains the rise and fall of large-scale contentious politics and the turn to 'politics of compensation' as a result of changing political geographies.
