Taking possession of private land for ‘public purpose’ by the state is a global phenomenon, but it displaces the people at the local-level. In this book, the author studies the observable fact of land grab for industries in a particular locale of the West Bengal State through field and archive in this multi-sited ethnographic ‘journey’.
