The Illegal City: Space, Law and Gender in a Delhi Squatter Settlement - Gender, Space and Society
Ayona Datta
Since 2000, a series of judicial rulings in India have criminalised squatters as 'illegal' citizens, 'encroachers' and 'pickpockets' of urban land, and have led to a spate of slum demolitions across the country. This book explores the relationship between space, law and gendered subjectivity by looking at an 'illegal' squatter settlement in Delhi.
