S. Harikrishnan

Social Spaces and the Public Sphere (eBook, ePUB)

A Spatial-history of Modernity in Kerala

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The volume focuses on how 'modernity' has also been a struggle for access to public spaces, and non-institutional spaces like teashops, markets, public roads, temple grounds, reading-rooms and libraries have all been crucial to how political culture was shaped, and how dominant hegemonies-caste, class or capital-have been challenged.
