Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork and research, the author draws on Marxist theory to craft a detailed analysis of how local demands for resettlement and rehabilitation were transformed into a radical anti-dam campaign linked to national and transnational movement networks. The book explains the Narmada conflict and addresses how the building of the anti-dam campaign was animated by processes of collective learning, how activists extended the spatial scope of their struggle by building networks of solidarity with transnational advocacy groups...
Clueless & Co
Clueless & Co. is a light-hearted, whimsical, tongue-in-cheek, bitingly irreverent and thoroughly exaggerated romp through corporate Calcutta, in the early '80s. It is narrated from the perspective of two comparative greenhorns: Rahul Banerjee, who, on a sudden impulse, resigns a stable, albeit predictable, job with a multinational company to start a market research agency of his own in partnership with two relative (and, as subsequent events reveal, rather weird) strangers; and the other, an unnamed 'I', who, as a junior executive in another multinational firm, finds himself constantly blundering into situations that his business school education had not prepared him for. While a series of bizarre experiences stretch their talent and fortitude to breaking point and force them to unlearn all the tenets of management that they'd imbibed in business school, they manage to muddle through in the end by adhering to a simple life-lesson: not to take oneself too seriously. Clueless & Co. is an invitation to join them in a rib-tickling, rip-roaring, rollercoaster ride through a wacky world of mortifying misadventures and commercial calamities.
