In Subaltern Frontiers, Tom Cowan skillfully explores agrarian and subaltern process that continue to remake the shifting geographies of India’s flagship private city of Gurgaon. Through theoretically informed, politically committed grounded research unafraid to take on real-world and scholarly shibboleths, Cowan shows how subaltern process, labours, actors, forms of imagination and political struggles continue to animate the urban frontier. This book is a model of excellence in geography and urban studies.
