Abstract

The book review discusses Resisting Dispossession: The Odisha Story by Ranjana Padhi and Nigamananda Sadangi, examining peasant movements against industrial and development projects in Odisha. It explores the tensions between democracy and development, focusing on the displacement of rural and indigenous communities and their resistance to large-scale projects. The review highlights how these struggles raise broader questions about land, livelihoods, political participation and competing visions of development in contemporary India.
