Descriere completă

A rare piece of research on the 'game' of municipal service delivery in an Indian metropolis. Assorted City is an important contribution in urban planning discourses and offers a rare in-depth conceptual and theoretical insight highly relevant for studying contemporary urbanism. It moves between the past and the present along with international and local debates and discourses on philosophy, society, politics and urbanity. This book captures generic urban processes in three ways: questions it raises about Planning, a multifaceted methodological perspective it introduces and the commitment it underlines towards social justice and equity in a democracy. Assorted City, a unique work on urban service delivery, argues that planning has inherent traits of multiple techniques of governmentality resulting in the politics of distribution, which with its unpredictable consequences, supersedes the policy of distribution. Based on an empirical study of water supply in Delhi, the book is a pioneering attempt that challenges widespread binary narratives on Indian cities and brings out multiple shades of urban existence and its politics.
