freshly-trained policy officers to former cabinet
ministers and prime ministers. It provides important new
insights into how those in government navigate their way
through complex issues and decisions based on developed

other learned behaviours, memories, emotions and
practiced forms of judgment at an individual level.

Informal labour in Urban India : three cities, three

xix,202p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9780415722339.
331 BAR 144342
During the last two decades, rapid economic growth and
development in India has been based upon the mass
employment of informal labour. Using case studies from
three urban regions, this book examines this growth in
modern India°s cities and towns. It argues that India has
undergone a process of uneven and combined development
during its integration with the world economy, leading to
a distorted form of urban development.

Growing scarcity of freshwater worldwide brings to light
the need for sound water resource modeling and policy
analysis. While a solid foundation has been established
for many specific water management problems, combining
those methods and principles in a unified framework
remains an ongoing challenge. This Handbook aims to
expand the scope of efficient water use to include
allocation of sources and quantities across uses and
time, as well as integrating demand-management with
supply side substitutes.

339.460954 COR 143925
This book takes the reader to the underbelly of the
Indian boom, an India that is not shining but is
struggling to survive. From the Indo-Soviet Bhilai Steel
Plant in Chhattisgarh, where an aristocracy of labour is
increasingly being replaced by a more vulnerable contract
labour force, we move to the banks of the Hoogly River.
Here, Norwegian shipping companies exploit a precarious
labour force that is as vulnerable to the vagaries of
global finance and its crisis as the elderly, especially
women and wage-workers, who live in the slums of Chennai.
We end in the belly of the Maoist-inspired Naxalite
insurgency, denounced by the Indian government as the
country°s greatest security challenge, where the poor are
being mobilised to rise against the injustices of the
Indian state.

Conflicts over natural resources abound in India, where
much of the population is dependent on these resources
for their livelihoods. Issues of governance and
management are further complicated by the competing
claims of parallel legal systems, including state,
customary, religious, project and local laws. Whereas
much has been written about property rights with a focus
on static definitions, this unique collection looks at
the legal anthropological perspective, exploring how the
coexistence and interaction between multiple legal orders
provide bases for claiming property rights. It examines
how hybrid legal institutions have developed over time in
India and how these impact on justice issues in the
governance and distribution of natural resources.
