The Context …
Widespread protests against land acquisition and
displacement across the country. These protests are
mobilized at three levels:
Level 1 – Project affected & local participants
• Collective behavior caused by insecurity due to feared loss of shelter &
livelihood, concerns about R&R, Quantity & Quality of Compensation, High
expectations created by sudden spate of development projects.
• But no articulated ideological concerns.
Level 2 – Activists & Academics
• Questioning the inevitability of displacement for development
• National in reach. - Norm oriented
Level 3 – Intellectual community
• Interrogation of the paradigm of development
• Concerned with ‘Culturocide & Ecocide’
• Functioning at National & International platforms
