Description:	Postliberalization India looks quite diff erent when seen from the margins of society. Whereas Indian elites and middle classes have gained from economic liberalization, those on the fringes have suff ered its spectacular unevenness and inequalities. While the dominant classes have successfully avoided bureaucratic hurdles along the path of economic growth, the subalterns have had to contend with bureaucratic agencies that might be avoiding them. How do those left out or cast out of the successes of liberalization understand and address their marginalization? How do they encounter and interpret the changing faces of the state and governance in contemporary India? Finally, if the upper third of Indian society (in terms of income and wealth) is economically empowered, as the Newsweek article claimed, what is being done to address the simultaneous disempowerment of the bottom third?
