Questions of the extent to which social movements are capable of
deepening democracy in India lie at the heart of this book. In
particular, the authors ask how such movements can enhance the
political capacities of subaltern groups and thereby enable them to
contest and challenge marginality, stigma, and exploitation. The
work addresses these questions through detailed empirical analyses
of contemporary fields of protest in Indian society - ranging from
gender and caste to class and rights-based legislation. Drawing on
the original research of a variety of emerging and established
international scholars, the volume contributes to an engaged
dialogue on the prospects for democratizing Indian democracy in a
context where neoliberal reforms fuel a contradictory process of
uneven development.
