“Surveillance City”

https://antipodeonline.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/From-Harjant-Gill-08.05.26_images-e1778668960275.png

Directed by Harjant Gill and Pearl Sandhu and featuring Professor Inderpal Grewal, Surveillance City takes viewers on a journey through contemporary #Delhi, narrating a city marked by the extreme inequality resultant of decades of neoliberalism, and highlighting the insidious work of an authoritarian state deploying surveillance and securitisation measures to govern diverse populations and temper unrest. It’s a powerful meditation on masculinism and militarism, populism and patriarchy, the aesthetics and affects of security, nationalism and religion, policing and the law, discourses of terror, fear of the other, the role of the media, but also dissent, protest, and the prospects of democracy in a postcolonial state.

Delhi Outram Estate, Islington

https://i.imgur.com/1zxOAO8.png

Just north of London Kings X lies the “#Delhi_Outram_Estate” in #Islington, a council estate built in the late 1970s which appears to commemorate the Indian Rebellion of 1857 (& its brutal suppression by the British) with streets named after those associated with its key events.

https://i.imgur.com/RXAwp1I.jpg

Some of the streets predate the estate itself, presumably having been named soon after the suppression of the Mutiny and the establishment of the Raj proper. Delhi Street was named after the Mughal capital of India, whose fall to the British was a significant event, in 1871.

https://i.imgur.com/gAxxAZ4.jpg

Similarly Outram Place would seem to run along the erstwhile Outram St, recorded in the 1861 Census, and named after “General Sir James Outram, who along with Havelock, relieved Lucknow”

https://i.imgur.com/D72gnE7.jpg

Sir Henry Havelock, who died of dysentery a few days after the Siege of Lucknow ended, also got a street named after him pretty much contemporaneously. Havelock St seems to have been laid out between 1856-9.

https://i.imgur.com/pKUlCcZ.jpg

But some of the names of streets in the estate seem to date from the redevelopment of this area into the present council estate, in the late 1970s. Vibart Walk, named in 1980, May be named after Edward Vibart, who was an EIC army officer who chronicled the events of 1857…

https://i.imgur.com/PTuhXAB.jpg

… or his father, Major Edward Vibart, who was executed on June 27, 1857 by the rebels after being captured in Kanpur. Who knows? But Islington Council did name this “walk” after this “hero” of 1857 as late as 1980.

And then we have Brydon Walk, named after William Brydon, an EIC Army Surgeon who was one of the few of 4,500 men & 12,000 accompanying civilians to survive the “long retreat” from Kabul to Jalalabad in 1842 & survived the siege of the Lucknow Residency (a survivor, this one!)

https://i.imgur.com/gAM0fpP.jpg

Then, we have Campbell Walk, named in 1980 after Sir Colin Campbell, Baron Clyde, who was commander of the British forces in India during the Rebellion. He “never married or fathered any children”…. Hmm.

https://i.imgur.com/k1LjR7p.jpg

Finally, there’s Lawrence Place, named after Sir Henry Lawrence, who died during the siege of Lucknow. Also named in 1980. Incidentally, his son was created 1st Baronet Lawrence of Lucknow, in 1868. The Baronetcy survives; their apparent is one Christopher Cosmo Lawrence, a visual effects supervisor who won an Oscar for his work on Gravity in 2013 & has been nominated thrice since. Anyway, thought Islington Council naming streets after colonial celebrities as late as 1980 was … fascinating.

https://i.imgur.com/OAcBauh.jpg

All the information on street names and dates comes from the wonderful “Streets With a Story: The Book of Islington” by Eric A Willats, which I found online.

India’s farmers’ protests: the British left must show solidarity

In India, in the middle of the pandemic, a unique struggle is taking place. Hundreds of thousands of farmers from across the country are occupying the borders of Delhi in a protest against the combined forces of corporate power and an ultra-right-wing government. On the whole an estimated 2 million people are said to be involved.

It is, however, not only its magnitude which makes it significant. The farmers’ protest represents a potentially transformative moment in the struggle against fascism which has been sweeping India over the last year – fuelled by growing anger against the regime of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The most important events have been as follows: on 10 December last year the BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party, or Indian People’s Party) government passed the Islamophobic and exclusionary Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) which, together with a National Register of Citizens, effectively disenfranchises India’s Muslim population and violates India’s secular Constitution. It was met by peaceful mass protests by students, which were viciously attacked by police and right-wing mobs affiliated with the BJP. At that point thousands of Muslim women came out to protest and, breaking all stereotypes, began an occupation of public space in Shaheen Bagh in Delhi – sitting there continuously day and night, through the bitter cold of the winter months.

How friendship makes cities

Male migrants’ caring friendships (dostis) make cities, Delhi, run. One of capitalism’s “hidden abodes”, these friendships cradle the urban poor through its insecurities and violences. Friendships create wiggle room: the space-times for making meaningful lives. The fluidity of friendships, the multiple forms of relatedness and betrayal they encompass, are particularly well suited to subtending informal economy work. Based on interviews with working class men, I argue: friendships are ontologies through which male migrants experience a city as a particular city. The city figures in the imaginations of men as a space of possibility for friendships not defined by caste, kinship, and gender relations. Translated into everyday practices of “caring karna”, the city is where the “doing of caring” across difference materializes. But friendship is agonistic, fraught and fragile; always vulnerable to unfriending, based on those very plays of difference, which may re-orient people away from it. In ephemeral and infinite friendships, men care by standing witness to violence, to fight against indifference, to stake citizens’ claims to a just city. Friendship offers social scientists and working-class migrants wiggle room, a space of hopeful, dynamic, and relational sociality, integral to a vision of the city as a space of possibility.

Priti Ramamurthy is a Professor in the Department of Gender, Women and Sexuality Studies at the University of Washington. An ethnographer, she has returned to the same villages in the Telangana region of southern India for three decades, to understand the relationship between the social reproduction of families, lives and livelihoods and processes of agrarian transformation. Prof. Ramamurthy’s articulation of feminist commodity chain analysis, as a way to track the creation of value and gendered identities, is a methodological contribution to studies of gender and globalization.

A bold plan to house 100 million people

#Mumbai, #Delhi, #Chennai, #Kolkata — all the major cities across India have one great thing in common: they welcome people arriving in search of work. But what lies at the other end of such openness and acceptance? Sadly, a shortage of housing for an estimated 100 million people, many of whom end up living in informal settlements. Gautam Bhan, a human settlement expert and researcher, is boldly reimagining a solution to this problem. He shares a new vision of urban India where everyone has a safe, sturdy home.

À New Delhi, les autorités pulvérisent de l’eau pour réduire la pollution

Pour le deuxième hiver consécutif, Delhi étouffe sous la pollution
▻http://lemonde.fr/planete/article/2017/11/10/pour-le-deuxieme-hiver-consecutif-delhi-etouffe-sous-la-pollution_5213353_32

Les autorités envisagent de faire voler des hélicoptères pour arroser la capitale de gouttelettes d’eau et faire tomber les particules de pollution.

"La pollution atmosphérique a entraîné 525 000 morts prématurées en Inde en 2015, soit le quart du total mondial, selon une étude publiée par la revue The Lancet en octobre. A New Delhi, les premiers à avoir vu ou senti la couche de pollution sont les sans-abri, endormis sur la banquette arrière de leur tricycle, ou les gardes de sécurité postés devant les résidences des quartiers aisés de la capitale. Les autres l’ont découverte le matin dans leur chambre, en se réveillant au milieu d’une fumée blanchâtre. Depuis ce jour, l’air de Delhi pique les yeux et irrite la gorge des habitants. On y respire comme dans un pot de peinture. « New Delhi est devenu une chambre à gaz », a reconnu Arvind Kejriwal, le dirigeant de l’Etat de Delhi. (...)
Les autorités indiennes, qui font face à leur deuxième hiver « airpocalyptique » d’affilée, sont toujours aussi désemparées. La pollution atmosphérique est causée par les incinérations de déchets à ciel ouvert, les briqueteries, les usines, la circulation automobile, l’usage de combustibles polluants comme le coke de pétrole, ou encore la poussière des chantiers de construction. Mais les autorités de l’Etat de Delhi ont surtout pointé du doigt la culture du brûlis pratiquée à cette période de l’année dans l’Etat voisin du Pendjab. Son ministre en chef, Amrinder Singh, a répondu que le gouvernement régional n’avait pas les moyens de verser des compensations financières aux paysans pour qu’ils arrêtent de brûler leur champ, et a renvoyé la balle dans le camp du premier ministre indien, lequel ne s’est toujours pas exprimé sur la question."

Meet the Street Kids of India Who Have Their Own Paper · Global Voices

https://globalvoices.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/16085994869_45569d7876_k-800x450.jpg

A Delhi-based newspaper written and published by street children has been telling their stories in their voices and struggling for their rights for over a decade now.

The newspaper named Balaknama, meaning ‘Voice of Children’ in Hindi, has built up a solid reputation over the years thanks largely to its bitingly authentic features.

In circulation since 2003, the eight-page tabloid covers seven cities and has become part of the lives of around ten thousand street kids.

#Ville et #fleuve en #Asie_du_Sud

L’Asie du Sud, qui dispose de deux des plus grands bassins hydrographiques de la planète, est l’héritière d’une longue #histoire urbaine. De nombreuses #villes_saintes, considérées comme les demeures de forces divines, se sont développées sur des rives également propices à l’installation de capitales et à l’essor de centres de commerce.

À travers l’analyse de sept couples villes/fleuves, des plaines du moyen #Indus au #Pakistan (#Sehwan_Sharif) à celle du #Brahmapoutre en #Assam (#Guwahati), de la vallée du #Gange et de la #Yamuna (#Bénarès et #Delhi), à celle de la #Vaigai en #Inde du Sud (#Madurai) en passant par le bassin de la #Narmada, en Inde centrale (#Amarkantaka et #Omkareshwar), l’ouvrage explore la multiplicité des visions et des émotions qui continuent de susciter des pratiques et des aménagements spécifiques sur les berges urbaines.

Ce volume collectif propose une réflexion pluridisciplinaire sur cet héritage singulier, aujourd’hui menacé par l’explosion démographique et par la pollution, et sur les perceptions contemporaines contradictoires des dévots et des touristes, des populations locales et des décideurs nationaux, des habitants de bidonvilles et des citadins des classes moyennes.

Géographie d’une #maladie émergente en milieu urbain endémique, le cas de la #dengue à #Delhi, #Inde

La dengue est une maladie dont l’agent étiologique est un virus transmis par l’intermédiaire d’un moustique (Aedes aegypti ou Aedes albopictus). En l’absence de vaccin efficace, seule la maitrise des gîtes vectoriels et par extension le contrôle de l’environnement permettrait de limiter la diffusion du virus, notamment dans les centres urbains qui représentent le milieu de prédilection pour le vecteur principal de la dengue. Cependant, si pour la majorité des maladies infectieuses vectorielles un lien étroit entre les facteurs socio-économiques et les taux d’incidences prédomine, les modalités de diffusion de la dengue sont davantage méconnues. Cet article revient sur la géographie de la dengue à Delhi, capitale de l’Inde, sous continent quasiment absent des études réalisées en géographie des maladies en général et de la dengue en particulier. Outre l’avantage de proposer un éclairage sur la situation indienne, pays qui concentre tout de même plus de la moitié de la population mondiale à risque vis-à-vis de la dengue (dont les facteurs climatiques sont favorables au vecteur), il s’agit de revenir sur la géographie relative aux taux d’incidence de la dengue à l’échelle écologique, c’est-à-dire à un niveau agrégé pour les années 2008 et 2009. Il s’agit dans un second temps d’étudier la géographie ponctuelle des individus infectés en tentant de repérer les facteurs spatio-temporels qui peuvent impacter cette géographie.

L’#accès aux #médicaments à #Delhi

Cet article analyse les modalités de l’accès aux médicaments dans la capitale indienne, Delhi, en s’attardant plus spécifiquement sur le rôle occupé par les #pharmacies dans le processus de diffusion des produits pharmaceutiques dans l’espace urbain. Après avoir examiné la répartition des officines à l’échelle urbaine, l’auteur souligne ensuite les effets de co-présence nés des complémentarités fonctionnelles entre les lieux et les acteurs du système de soins. Dans un troisième temps, l’analyse strictement spatiale est élargie, permettant un glissement de la notion d’accessibilité à la notion d’accès au médicament.

Last weekend in Khirki Village, #Delhi, a late-night mob led by the #Aam_Admi_Party (AAP) leader and Delhi Law Minister #Somnath_Bharti went looking for “some Nigerians or Ugandans.” They pulled four young African women out of their home, held them captive in a taxi for hours, probed their “private parts”, forced them to urinate publicly, hustled them to a hospital against their will for “tests”, and reluctantly let them go the next morning.
