Planning from the Bottom Up : Democratic

"This book is based on the author's dissertation research. It contains an evaluation of the policy of democratic decentralisation through a case study of the metropolitan planning institution in Kolkata, India. The book illustrates that politicisation of decision-making along party lines limits planning from the bottom up. Among other policy recommendations, the book argues that for an effective implementation of bottom-up approaches to metropolitan planning, the planning bureaucracy needs to be independent of the political class."--BOOK JACKET.
