Description

This book is a significant contribution to this discourse on land. Land is a subject of great conflict and debate in India. Over the past decade, the debate has focused on land acquisition, which some have called Indias biggest problem. Land and the issues related to its acquisition have heavily influenced electoral verdicts and political fortunes in various parts of India. A new law for acquisition was created by the left-of-center Congress-led UPA government in 2013, which was immediately sought to be amended (unsuccessfully) in 2014 by the newly elected right-wing BJP-led NDA government. These differing visions on acquisition have often been simplified into opposing camps: people-friendly vs. business-friendly; o<"populist vs.neoliberal". Much of the general discourse on land remains similarly polarized.
