Epistemologies of Property uncovers how colonial officials and the residents of Bombay crafted rival stories and proofs of ownership after the 1803 fire. Through these clashes-and everyday acts of buying, resisting, and negotiating---it reveals how modern urban real estate in South Asia emerged earlier, and far more turbulently, than assumed.
