Cities Made & Unmade // Princeton Initiative Forum on the Urban Environment

"(Infra)Structure, Resistance, and Agency in the South Asian City"

Souvanik Mullick, Princeton Initiative Fellow, in conversation with Hiba Hafiz, Boston College Law School and UCHV Fellow in Law and Normative Thinking

Across the world, and particularly in the global South, the informal economy remains a defining feature of cities yet is understudied. In Delhi, the small transport sector is one of the city’s prime informal employers, comprising over 1.5 million operators. While less understood, these vulnerable informal workers are a powerful political force.
