Miracles.In Hydraulic City Nikhil Anand explores the politics of Mumbai's water infrastructure to demonstrate how citizenship emerges through the continuous efforts to control, maintain, and manage the city's water. Through extensive ethnographic fieldwork in Mumbai's settlements, Anand found that Mumbai's water flows, not through a static collection of pipes and valves, but through a dynamic infrastructure built on the relations between residents, plumbers, politicians, engineers, and the 3,000 miles of pipe that bind them. In addition to distributing water, the public water network often reinforces social identities and the exclusion of marginalized groups, as only those actively recognized by city agencies receive legitimate water services. This form of recognition—what Anand calls "hydraulic citizenship"—is incremental, intermittent, and reversible.Water securityIndiaMumbaiWater-supplyIndiaMumbaiInfrastructure (Economics)IndiaMumbaiMarginality, SocialIndiaMumbaiSocial integrationIndiaMumbaiIndiaSocial conditions21st centuryWater securityWater-supplyInfrastructure (Economics)Marginality, SocialSocial integration363.6/10954792Anand Nikhil1979-987124NDDNDDBOOK9910166955003321Hydraulic city2255997UNINA
