This has shaped both policy and popular aspiration in post-Independence India. In this context, Democratizing Development: Struggles for Rights and Social Justice in India explores and analyses how development gets vitiated by multiple powers and subverts the democratic ideals of participation, equality, inclusion, redistribution and equity, and how the poor and socially marginalized struggle to make development democratic. Examining development through the lens of the most marginalized, the book shows the democratic potential of development as well as the result of its absence.Economic developmentPolitical aspectsIndiaDemocracyEconomic aspectsIndiaPolitical participationIndiaSocial justiceIndiaHuman rightsIndiaEconomic developmentPolitical aspectsDemocracyEconomic aspectsPolitical participationSocial justiceHuman rights338.954Mohanty Ranjita1519868CaToSAGECaToSAGEUtOrBLWBOOK9910793181403321Democratizing development3758189UNINA
