HSL674 : Urban Ethnography
[edit]The course builds an anthropological perspective on the organization Courses of Study 2024-2025 Humanities and Social Sciences 222and governance of cities and the myriad experiences of urban life. It will engage critically with theories of urban development, urban space, and urban experience. While most of these theories emerge from the developed Western cities, the course will attempt to draw on urban ethnographic work in India and the global South to explore how emerging concepts and ideas from these post-colonial, developing, and marginal contexts engage with the theories and concepts from Western cities. The course also draws on methodological insights of studying the ‘urban'.
