The Anti-Politics Machine in India: State, Decentralization and Participatory Watershed Development

English

By (author): Vasudha Chhotray

This book assesses the validity of anti-politics critiques of development, first popularised by James Ferguson, in the peculiar context of India. It examines the new context provided by decentralization of state functioning where keeping politics out of development (development as the anti-politics machine) can no longer be taken for granted. The case of a highly technocratic state watershed development programme that also seeks to be participatory is used to illustrate the tensions between prescriptive development policy and a growing political democracy.
