  • Visceral Politics of Food: the Bio-Moral Economy of Work- Lunch in Mumbai, India
    Visceral politics of food: the bio-moral economy of work- lunch in Mumbai, India Ken Kuroda London School of Economics and Political Science A thesis submitted to the Department of Anthropology of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, March 2018 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 98896 words. 2 Abstract This Ph.D. examines how commuters in Mumbai, India, negotiate their sense of being and wellbeing through their engagements with food in the city. It focuses on the widespread practice of eating homemade lunches in the workplace, important for commuters to replenish mind and body with foods that embody their specific family backgrounds, in a society where religious, caste, class, and community markers comprise complex dietary regimes. Eating such charged substances in the office canteen was essential in reproducing selfhood and social distinction within Mumbai’s cosmopolitan environment.

  • Cost of MUTP and Bank Financing by Component
    Report No. 34725 Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Investigation Report India: Mumbai Urban Transport Project (IBRD Loan No. 4665-IN; IDA Credit No. 3662-IN) Public Disclosure Authorized December 21, 2005 Public Disclosure Authorized About The Panel The Inspection Panel was created in September 1993 by the Board of Executive Directors of the World Bank to serve as an independent mechanism to ensure accountability in Bank operations with respect to its policies and procedures. The Inspection Panel is an instrument for groups of two or more private citizens who believe that they or their interests have been or could be harmed by Bank-financed activities to present their concerns through a Request for Inspection. In short, the Panel provides a link between the Bank and the people who are likely to be affected by the projects it finances. Members of the Panel are selected “on the basis of their ability to deal thoroughly and fairly with the request brought to them, their integrity and their independence from the Bank’s Management, and their exposure to developmental issues and to living conditions in developing countries.”1 The three-member Panel is empowered, subject to Board approval, to investigate problems that are alleged to have arisen as a result of the Bank having ignored its own operating policies and procedures. Processing Requests After the Panel receives a Request for Inspection it is processed as follows: · The Panel decides whether the Request is prima facie not barred from Panel consideration. · The Panel registers the Request—a purely administrative procedure. · The Panel sends the Request to Bank Management, which has 21 working days to respond to the allegations of the Requesters.

The cattle population is revised based on 2012 livestock census data from the Government of India (GOI). CY 2014 and CY 2015 carabeef exports are forecast at 2 and 2.2 million tons carcass weight equivalent (CWE) on export pace and expectations of increased demand from the Middle East, Africa, and Southeast Asia. Executive Summary: For CY 2014 and CY 2015, the total cattle population is estimated to grow from 300.6 to 301.1 million head. The cattle population is revised based on 2012 livestock census data from the GOI. From approximately September 2013 to January/February 2014, there was a foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) outbreak in southern India, which restricted the interstate trade of livestock, particularly to the state of Kerala. CY 2014 and CY 2015 carabeef meat production is projected at 4.1 and 4.3 million tons CWE on improved weights due to better farm management and nutrition. CY 2014 and CY 2015 carabeef exports are forecast at 2 and 2.2 million tons CWE on export pace and expectations of increased demand from the Middle East, Africa, and Southeast Asia.
