Dispossessed: Stories from India's Margins
First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. In 2005, starving members of the Bhuiya clan in one of Bihar's poorest villages dug up a long-buried dead goat, cooked and ate it. Sixteen people died within days, twelve of them children. Bengali-speaking Muslims who had moved to Rajasthan from West Bengal in the 1970s and '80s were summarily declared Bangladeshi terrorists in the aftermath of the 2008 Jaipur bomb blasts. They remain stateless in their own country. Landless Lodhas, members of an erstwhile 'Criminal Tribe' in Bihar, grapple even today with centuries of shame and dispossession. These stories-along with those of women with mental and physical disabilities in rural areas, homeless men living in Yamuna Pushta, in New Delhi, and patients in a leprosy colony in Orissa-reveal both stigma and support, harsh lives, an uncaring, corrupt state and moments of resilience. Drawn from interviews and conversations as part of a study on destitution by the Centre for Equity Studies, Dispossessed: Stories from India's Margins takes a wide-ranging view of what it means to be destitute, displaced and marginalized in contemporary India. Equally importantly, through these personal accounts of their research, the authors explore their own privileges in comparison. Written with sensitivity and care, this is an important book that perceptively questions India's engagement with the people at its margins and should be essential reading for all.

Notes on the Contributors. Index. State food provisioning in India had been regarded as an instrument of social policy since independence. In 2001, however, following a series of starvation deaths in several states, a public interest litigation in the Supreme Court served as the catalyst for extensive debates regarding the recognition of the right to food as a basic right in India. This process resulted in the passage of the National Food Security Act in 2013. The Right to Food Debates lays out the principal arguments offered in the years leading up to the final act by academics, policymakers and government officials, and prominent civil society groups such as the Right to Food Campaign. Each chapter in the volume concerns a major debate relevant to the food security bill. They also include extensive discussions of the draft bill formulated in 2011 by the National Advisory Council, a body of experts that advised the then government on social policies and the rights of disadvantaged groups. A rigorous presentation on debates surrounding whether and how to legislate access to food, this volume will be of interest to scholars and researchers in development studies, NGOs and research organisations in India and other developing countries.
