This book analyses the question of the right to the city, informal
economies and the non-western shape of neoliberal governance in
India through a new analytic: the right to sell. The book examines
why and how states attempt to curb, control, and eliminate markets
of urban informal street vendors. Focusing on Kolkata, the author
provides a theoretical explanation of this puzzle by distilling and
analysing the inherent tensions among the constitutive elements of
neoliberal governance, namely, growth imperative, market activism,
and corporatization, and demonstrates its implications for the
formal/informal boundaries of the economy. A useful addition to the
existing literatures on the right to the city, informal economies,
and the shapes that neoliberalism takes in the non-west, the book
provides a non-western counter to accounts of neoliberalism and
will be of interest to academics working in the fields of South
Asian Studies, Urban Studies, and Political Economy.
