Inhaltsangabe

Throughout the world, older urban cities have experienced the process of decay inherent in urbanization and either the evolution, growth, decay, or renewal of urban centers. This volume focuses on the politics of urban redevelopment in one city --Shahjahanabad, a medieval city which was swallowed up by the burgeoning capital city of Delhi in India. It looks at the historical aspects of urbanization to emphasize the crucial role played by politics in the process of urbanization. Mehra includes fascinating first-hand accounts of residents of Delhi who describe their perceptions of the historical evolution of Shahjahanabad, its plight, problems, and possible solutions.
