Описание: This book takes a fresh look at one of Asia`s great cities, a metropolis of hope and decay that was once the Second City of the British Empire after London. With around 200 photographs, including historic black-and-white images, coupled with a timely and detailed text, the book takes us through the streets, ghats, and corridors of Calcutta and paints an inclusive and nuanced portrait of the city.
Описание: This book on colonial Calcutta charts the history of its urbanization from below in its streets, strikes and popular urban cultures. Claiming the City offers a close up view of the citys underbelly by drawing in a range of non-archival sources, from illustrations and amateur photographs to street songs, local histories and memoirs which show how Calcutta was not just a problem to be disciplined and governed as the colonialists would have us believe. Instead, itemerges in Ghoshs study as remarkably lively and crucial site for the shaping of a discourse of rights and claims to the city by various marginal urban groups. In doing so, the book uses the everyday as a prism for capturing the many urban political and social imaginaries that shaped the city throughscandals, crime, street songs, protest and violence.

Описание:
This book presents a critical understanding of Indian business as an encounter between indigeneity and Western modernity by exploring notions and practices of responsibility. It brings the paradoxical nature of Indian businesses to the fore: though they have a rich history of philanthropic contributions to social causes, they have also been known for labour rights and human rights violations, environmental abuses, destruction of habitats, pollution and corruption. The book shows how Indian firms straddle these two starkly contrasting positions and the many blends in between to conform to global developments in the pursuit of corporate social responsibility (CSR). It also looks at the emergent field of critical studies and analysis of CSR, especially from the context of a developing country.
Part of the 'Contemporary Themes in Business and Management' series, this book will interest scholars of international business studies, management studies, economics, postcolonial management, organizational studies, and corporate social responsibility, as well as to businesses, corporates and practitioners.
