  • Mindscapes of Space, Power and Value in Mumbai
    Island Studies Journal, Vol. 9, No. 2, 2014, pp. 277-292 The epistemology of a sea view: mindscapes of space, power and value in Mumbai Ramanathan Swaminathan Senior Fellow, Observer Research Foundation (ORF) Fellow, National Internet Exchange of India (NIXI) Contributing Editor, Governance Now [email protected] ABSTRACT: Mumbai is a collection of seven islands strung together by a historically layered process of reclamation, migration and resettlement. The built landscape reflects the unique geographical characteristics of Mumbai’s archipelagic nature. This paper first explores the material, non-material and epistemological contours of space in Mumbai. It establishes that the physical contouring of space through institutional, administrative and non-institutional mechanisms are architected by complex notions of distance from the city’s coasts. Second, the paper unravels the unique discursive strands of space, spatiality and territoriality of Mumbai. It builds the case that the city’s collective imaginary of value is foundationally linked to the archipelagic nature of the city. Third, the paper deconstructs the complex power dynamics how a sea view turns into a gaze: one that is at once a point of view as it is a factor that provides physical and mental form to space. In conclusion, the paper makes the case that the mindscapes of space, value and power in Mumbai have archipelagic material foundations. Keywords : archipelago, form, island, mindscape, Mumbai, power, space, value © 2014 – Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Introduction: unearthing the archipelagic historiography of Mumbai A city can best be described as a collection of spaces. Not in any ontological sense or in a physically linear form, but in an ever-changing, ever-interacting mesh of spatialities and territorialities that display the relative social relations of power existing at that particular point in time (Holstein & Appadurai, 1989).

  • Reconstructing Religious Tolerance in South Mumbai Mumbai, India Colby College Sarah Joseph Kurien, India, Mahindra United World College of India
    In Peaces: Reconstructing Religious Tolerance in South Mumbai Mumbai, India Colby College Sarah Joseph Kurien, India, Mahindra United World College of India Ia. My Project for Peace aimed to revisit and strengthen our national ideals of tolerance and openness by educating children from economically impoverished communities about different faiths and their traditions. I chose to work with students from South Mumbai’s slums because it is in these areas that several fundamentalist organizations concentrate their recruitment resources. Ib.. I modified my project slightly in order to accommodate changed ground realities in Mumbai. The organization I had originally intended to work with, Meljol, was unable to procure local government permission to work in South Mumbai’s public schools in the time frame that I had envisioned. Faced with an indeterminate wait were I to continue partnering with Meljol, I decided to approach Akanksha, an NGO that enrolls children from slum communities in Mumbai’s public schools and provides them with after-school classes to better equip them for classroom life. Akanksha agreed to let me work with children in their South Mumbai centers. I was therefore able to work with the same population of children as proposed, albeit in their after-school programs instead of in their public schools. Given the changed circumstances and the fact that I was no longer working with public school teachers in their classrooms, I decided to use the funds originally allocated to the Teacher Awareness Training Conference to improve upon the field trip and classroom discussion aspects of my project. Due to this redistribution of project funds, I was able to take students on longer and more in-depth field trips to various sites of religious importance around the city.
