Urban Futures in the Indian Himalayas

April 18, 2018 , 6:30 pm 7:30 pm

The expanded reproduction of rural livelihoods has led to an increasing number of households in the Indian Himalayas—especially in the state of Himachal Pradesh—route available surplus to nearby urban areas in search of speculative footholds. This talk is about the production of space and everyday lives concomitant to this process.
Rohit Negi is with the School of Human Ecology at Ambedkar University, Delhi. He has a PhD in Geography (Ohio State) and masters degree in Urban Planning (UIUC). Rohit’s research lies at the intersections of urban geography and political ecology, and his ongoing projects concern Delhi’s toxic air, and Himachal’s construction boom.
