Synopsis:
Infrastructures of Democracy is useful for understanding how the planning and implementation of different modalities of road construction in rural Nepal take place. It is fascinating to read how formal and informal planning for district roads is shaped by the power and influence of political parties eventually leading to burdens for the marginalized people, high levels of corruption among those involved in the nexus, and poor quality of roads. It gives hints to how social justice can be promoted in road building.
About the Author: Katharine N. Rankin is an assistant professor in the Department of Geography at the University of Toronto.
