Full Description
This volume contains thirteen seminal essays which focus on the dialectic between the policies and institutions of decentralization and local politics in India. Evocative of tensions between matters of local autonomy and the demands of development, the volume urges a concern for an understanding of the complex nature of decentralization, particularly in view of the enormous diversity of Indian society.
