Description
SAGE Publications India Pvt Ltd Assorted City: Equity, Justice, And Politics In Urban Services Delivery by Suptendu P Biswas
Assorted City makes an important contribution to urban planning discourses in India by offering an in-depth conceptual and theoretical insight to address theory–practice dichotomy. A unique work on urban services delivery in an Indian city, it narrates how equity and justice are manipulated in the process. It captures generic urban processes in three ways: the questions it raises about planning, the multifaceted methodological perspective it introduces, and the commitment it underlines toward social justice and equity in a democracy.
This book explores and exposes the interplay between urban existence and the politics of service delivery.
It is a rare piece of research on the game of urban services delivery in an Indian metropolis.
