Abstract

Singh's book “Land Acquisition and Resource Development in India” sits at the intersection of state theory, human geography, and political economy of land dispossession in India. It sheds light on the changing nature of the Indian state, uneven development trajectories across social groups and spaces in India as a result of “resource development,” and the impact of public discourse and mobilizations on the processes of dispossession.
