Description
Against the backdrop of the first transition of the colonial state in India to the sovereign, welfarist, democratic state of the constitutional era, this book explores the second transition of governance towards ‘developmental democracy’. How have globalisation and the new emphasis on development through growth affected the nature of the state, governance, and democratic politics in India? Governance is seen here as a productive process constituting subjects of governance, who in turn render the field of governance a contentious one. The volume explores the evolving relations among democracy, development and governance structures at a time when the discourse of welfare is giving way to notions of growth, on the one hand, and to notions of rights and claims, on the other. The first part of the book explores the changing technologies and dynamics of governance in the era of reforms. The essays address the contemporary dialectics of recognition and growth, and how these contradictions play out in the evolving realms of e-governance, disaster management and ecological governance. The second part dwells on the formation of new kinds of citizen-subjects through the governmental processes of the developmental state, including the governance of culture, the creation of appropriate minority subjects, and the interactions among higher education and governance. The volume thus inquires not only into the emerging modalities of governance but also into the sorts of subjects that are formed in a regime of developmental democracy.
