Bengaluru through the Lens of the Everyday
https://bangaloreinternationalcentre....
What does it take to make a city livable when the ground beneath it is constantly shifting?
Carol Upadhya’s Chronicles of a Global City turns Bengaluru inside out, tracing how two decades of breakneck urbanization, real estate speculation, and infrastructural expansion have reshaped lives and livelihoods across the city. Moving beyond stories of tech corridors and elite enclaves, the book reveals Bengaluru through the eyes of those who build, serve, and sustain it: construction workers, street vendors, delivery riders, petty landlords, brokers, and local politicians. Each and every one navigating the promises and perils of the city’s growth.
Grounded in years of ethnographic research, the volume introduces “speculative urbanism,” a lens that connects finance, land, and everyday survival to expose the city’s deeper rhythms of aspiration and struggle.
