Abstract
En 中文
There is a global renewal of small city research. In that league, subaltern urbanisation is a long required impetus in conceptualising them in India. Having both academic and policy salience, the project brings to fore the unnoticed urban settlements in parallel to the Subaltern Studies Collective' endeavour to give credence to the agency of those eclipsed from historiography. However, subalternity can also be thought from elsewhere; supplementing existing ideas instead of disrupting them. With two field-based ethnographies, we outline a couple of ways (out of many innumerable ones) where the subaltern urbanisation idea has helped us think through its broadened self.
