| Description: | Urban transformation is no magic wand expressed in differing sociopolitical, economic, and spatial settings and governance. The idea for this volume emerged from the discourse on how Indian cities are repositioning themselves by donning new competitive roles in the globalizing economy. So far, entrepreneurial narratives from the global north and Western Europe have captured the changing economic contours intervened with speculative projects. In sharp contrast, new forms of urban governance with exclusionary entrepreneurial practices in Indian cities are generating new struggles and noticeable socio-spatial inequalities. Thus, the aim here is to provide an interdisciplinary perspective in discussing the contradictions and complex contestations in Indian cities—over divergent political and institutional landscapes—which can be described as explicitly ‘entrepreneurial’, while engaging with ‘subaltern’ discourses in urban studies. |
