Bargaining with Capital

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A study of the profound preoccupation with time, youth and the relationship between generations in contemporary popular Indian media culture, this book suggests that the politics of time is a manifestation of the radicalised war between labour and capital inherent in India's shift to neoliberalism since the 1990s.
