 1. Introduction
Redevelopment in a region carries with it many influences on the local community of
the region. The community of the region is the element that is affected by the
consequences of the redevelopment regardless of whether they are positive or
negative. Hence, every redevelopment plans should consider the local community as
the one of the most critical element and should further makes them an active
member.

Te local community participation and making them the centre stage of the changes
that are going to take place should be the core strategy of the redevelopers.
Any redevelopment performed without keeping local community in perspective can
result in discontentment among the community, create feelings of distrust towards
the developers, can create acts of clashes within the community or with the
government and can even alter community value structures. For instance, if highly
modernized redevelopment takes place suddenly across a culturally rich community
then it is bound to affect the individuals of the community and especially the
youngsters creating imbalance.
The present research aims to study the influences of redevelopment on the
community residing in the slums of Dharavi, the largest slum area in the world.
A key aspiration of the study is to analyse the various facets of the community and
conduct an in-depth analysis of theoretical framework of community. Further the
theoretical underpinning is then compared with the primary study conducted. The
primary study comprises of in depth interviews conducted with residents of Dharavi.
Based on the study, conclusion are framed on the how the redevelopment plans will
influence the local community in the region. Further recommendations are provided
on how the redevelopment plans can be made more community based and
participatory.

Section 1: Community Discourse (Literature Review)
Defining Community

1.1. Defining Community

This section will explore the different way in which community defined by academics
and politics. That is what is community made up of or key features according to the
people belonging to communities.

1.2. Community in General

In the current situation, a 'perfect' definition of community may suppose to include
mutual ethics, shared individual care among fellows, and concern for one another.
This idea strengthens the 'communitarian' idea of social equality, wherein nationality
essentially involves shared responsibilities deprived of which discrete rights would
not be imaginable. According to Dwyer (2004): "A solid logic of 'community',
described here as 'an entity with certain shared standards, rules and objectives
wherein every adherent aspect it is where the shared objective is as their own', is a
general requirement for communitarians. Community makes distinct independence
promising by guarding and supporting its adherents and is capable to ask for and
defend distinct faithfulness to mutually described responsibilities and exercises that
are specific and definite to a selected community. Actually, several communities are
lesser organized as compared to what Etzioni and Dwyer desire, however this
explanation offers a valuable point to begin with.

1.3. View of Modern Socialists

Modern sociologists employ the notion of community largely to denote to the
communal procedures of communication and exchange functioning within
assemblies, instead of titling assemblies that are obvious and recognizable on the
platform (Crow and Allan, 1994; Day and Murdoch, 1993). But, the notion of a native
community defines certain logic of common personality, that persons who reside in a
region are far more than merely its ‘populace’: "residing in a region gives a possible
chance for shared contribution and participation with others living there as well."
(Crow and Allan, 1994) In the works of Putman (2000), the ironic engagement of
lives which occurs inside native communities is perceived to establish valued
communal wealth for the government, along with the distinct inhabitants themselves
(Halpern, 2005; Prime et al, 2002). But, the procedures which together create and

2
reinforce a community give proof that can be freely employed to recognize that
community

1.4. Community as Space

The idea of ‘space’ is extensively employed through the writings on strength,
strategy, equality and resident event. Few authors denote to ‘political spaces’ as
those official networks, political treatises and communal and political rehearses by
means of which the deprived and those groups operational with them can trail
poverty drop (Webster and Engberg Petersen 2002).

Few writings inspects ‘democratic spaces’ wherein inhabitants can involve to

demand nationality and impact governance procedures (Cornwall and Coelho 2006).
Since Andrea Cornwall’s efforts hark back, these spaces for contribution are not
impartial, however are themselves formed by strength relationships, which both
border and go in them (Cornwall 2002). Between all, she pulls upon French societal
philosophers (Lefebvre, Foucault, and Bourdieu) for whom the idea of strength and
the idea of space are intensely related. Citing Lefebvre:

‘Space is a communal merchandise … it is not merely “there”, impartial vessel before

you to be filled, however is an active, humanly built medium of regulator, and
therefore of supremacy, of strengths’. Lastly, there are the spaces which are
demanded by fewer influential players for or in contrast to the strength bearers, or
shaped more independently by them. Cornwall denotes to these spaces as ‘organic’
spaces which arise ‘out balances of mutual interests or credentials’ and ‘may arise
into existence as a outcome of widespread organization, like around individuality or
concern oriented worries, or may comprise of spaces where in compatible persons
link collected in mutual recreations’ (Cornwall 2002).

Improving citizenship contribution needs far than appealing or comprising persons to

contribute. And it demands more than merely creating place accessible for persons
to present their requirements and movements in collecting ‘voices’. Actual
contribution needs allowing persons admittance to data on which to base planning or
to drum up to declare their privileges and claim responsibility. To do the same needs
dynamic involvement in developing voice, constructing serious awareness,
promoting for the presence of females, kids, uneducated, deprived and omitted
persons, forcing open cracks to broaden places for engagement in policymaking and

3
constructing the political abilities for independent involvement, it calls for procedure
that reinforce the potentials of dynamic resident involvement with four of the official
kinds recognized here; both those protracted by the influential, and those by which
residents create and mold their own circumstance of involvement and discover and
employ their individual voice. And it depend on policies to improve residents’ political
abilities in the public policy field’ from the capability to make nous of compound
financial or spending statistics, to having the linguistic with which to claim with
technical authorities: on preparing common man with the ‘arms of the influential’.

As statistics provided, as asked to propose views, as requested to participate in

agreeing on primacies, as engaged in policymaking are all types of contribution that
would appear requirement for speaking regarding “citizenship contribution” as a civil
right ( Gaventa and Valderrama 1999; Gaventa 2002). All these kinds of asked
contribution continue depending on being presented a opportunity to contribute. Still
much arises to rest on who comes forward for these deals of engagement and the
way the restrictions of their involvement are demarcated. Amazingly some
explanations of participating technique in run-through provide us some clue
regarding who really contributes; we get slight nous of who accurately is
communicating for or reading whom, and how they themselves would take their
individual rights and characters as contributors. Further micro-degree study is
needed if we are to know which kinds of contribution work where in types of places
to offer persons with chances to understand comprehensive citizenship. Added
knowledge is desirable of the requirements for involvements in specific space as
well, avoiding from the one-size-fits –all finest rehearses example in the direction of
policies that take reason of ethnic, political and ancient backgrounds.

Considering these queries needs that we widen the latitude of question further than
what has usually controlled study and inscription on participating ‘development’ to
discover broader queries regarding domination, individuality, organization, and
supremacy. It is with these queries that the effort of the DRC is associated, with
introductory fresh viewpoints and creating fresh contacts. Considering contribution
as sited rehearsal pleas for methods that discover places for contribution in the
spaces where in they happen, outlining their prospects related to real political,
societal, ethnic, and ancient exactitudes, rather than perfect ideas of independent
rehearsal. This is response give occasions to question few of the structures by which

4
we presently create nous of contribution and for an added thorough logical conduct
of main ideas and their inferences for contributions as a political rehearsal. It is
expected that the effort of the DRC can donate to these schemas.

1.5. Changes in global viewpoint on Community in last few decades

In the era of the 1960s and initial 1970s, the notion of community had a great outline
- together as an explanation of how persons existed as well as a prototype for
organizers. Hastening financial modification was resulting in extraordinary physical
movement, and also in the direction of the centralism of strategy creation, wherein
communities usually seemed to be problems to the development. This in response
assisted to weaken native bonds - as for instance, with alterations in native
communal accommodation distribution, whereby poor 'outside people' took primacy
over less poor 'inside people'. There was a conceptual response as well to the idea
of community between sociologists, particularly those women's libber who sensed
that females' characters in communities established a restriction on their individual
liberty. Simultaneously, sociologists were serious of the manner that certain
organizers were employing the word to influence native verdict making (Rex, 1988).
Hence adverse features of the idea came into light, wherein community was
supposed to be conservative, contentious and high-class. Though, in the end of
1980s the sense was beginning to rise that there is something precious being
missing, resulting in efforts to recollect the idea. This has then educated an entire
fresh trend of guidelines to improve and redevelop communities over the
reorganization of authority. Numerous of these openly, however more usually
implicitly, identify that the unity of a community and publics' connection to it are
straight associated with populace constancy and period of stay in a region (Young
and Lemos, 1997).

An aspect which at times seems to stop this association from being revealed more
openly is the place of racial subgroups. Extensive migration has had a weakening
outcome on numerous town regions; however most critics have desisted from stating
this for anxiety of being termed as racialist (Browne 2004; Dench 2003; Furedi
2001). Conversation of community associations concerns has been reserved for
numerous eras. But, there exists an irony in it. Racial subgroups themselves are
perceived as requiring having constancy so as to form and defend their individual
communal wealth, and their individual issues in attaining this have progressively

5
gained consideration of persons of host societies in recollecting theirs. This has
resulted in thankfulness that ‘poor white communities' can be destructed by quick
movement in populace, usually motivated by community housing strategy, and that
this is a reason of white opposition to migrants and leading to proposals of clash,
separation and community collapsing down. According to Mumford and Power
(2003), "It is the point where in community approval is crucial and has, actually, been
ignored by community housing agencies. The possibility for ethnic fight over this
matter is genuine, and if not tackled sensibly, could weaken community relationships
for long." Till now there is certain disparity over these matters. However the
agreement which appears to be evolving currently, particularly later to the Cantle
Report, is that 'community cohesion' is declining where populace movements are
much quick or huge. Native private communal bonds consume time to grow. Migrant
crowds may expend the intermediate time of establishment more effortlessly if they
also reside collected in racial alliances among which solid shared provisions are
guaranteed (Chisholm and Smith 1990; Goodwin and Cramer 2000). Hence racial
communities have worth in the private realm. However so as to avoid risky splits in
the native community, novices should be united as soon as possible into occupied
contribution within prevailing community establishments together with recognized
adherents, instead of making perpetual distinct individualities.

Certain constancy in housing forms is required earlier to family and individual bonds
can grow; thus time is needed (Forrest and Kearns 1999; Willmott, 1963) however it
is not enough. Assembly places are required, that is, sites where isolated links of
interdependence can collect to extract mutual site significance. Community institutes
like schools play a vital character here, as site where the bottom-up procedures (the
private realm) of domestic life interconnect with the (top-down) territorially-planned
community realm, input into it and develop to be planned by it (Morrow, 2000). This
is vital logic, as it implies that 'community' is what interlinks the persons and isolated
spheres. Civic amenities, like schools, society halls, faith-based groups, shops,
hospitals and fitness centres, are appreciated as civic institutes where persons and
families collect and part their ‘isolated’ lives. Channels of exchange grow into
relations at these sites, in manners which strengthen bonds to neighborhood
(Hidalgo and Hernandez, 2001). These places then turn into basic structure masses
of native community uniqueness, on which a pyramid of more comprehensive ranks

6
of affection and individuality is built. In certain communities, nearly all the persons
are alike in reference of few vital feature or features. The mining communities of Co.
Durham and the Lancashire cotton cities used to be ruled by a sole career and a
solitary communal class. Existing communities also show some shared features,
compared to communities described by racial individuality. Contrary, the idea of
community does not indicate the need for regularity in the populace. In fact, the very
notion of mutual requirements and duties conveys the inference that communities
require various expertise and aptitudes to work efficiently.

There are several dissimilar kinds of community, and producing harmony among
persons who live close to each other relies not merely on communal equilibrium or
unity, but instead on the groups of communal give-and-take, fight, interdependency,
offense and the like which persons produce in their associations with others
engaged." (Crow and Allan, 1994) As a result, although similarity of the populace on
few features may be an appropriate standard to recognize communities, the overall
tactic is to take into account the character of the ‘populace’ services which offer the
prospect for community participation to be made and which in any case concurrently
recognize the centres of those communities. There has been certain work done
recently to create tools of community engagement and events. The Home Office
Citizenship Survey (Home Office 2004), for instance, gathered information on a
range of kinds of native association and contribution, which could direct to probable
pointers for evaluating the forte of native community. The information is restricted,
but, by their avoidance to casual bonds, specifically family associations, which in the
opinion of maximum sociologists are what supporting the life of communities usually.
A least, the data does not allow native communities to be recognized all across the
native administrations of England. Due to lack of direct methods, constancy in the
populace gives a valuable pointer of forte, as endurance is of the core in community
life (Phillipson et al, 2001). Hence there are several native communities which have
extensive pasts of sensible existence as mutual articles and (independent) artistes,
within which families and institutes have tailored for descendants, and native
character developed. But, to depend only on the constancy of the populace as an
investigative of native communities would be a too basic tactic to the stuff.

Consequently we arrive to the point that, at numerous facts in the conversation, the
significance of institutes, stores, community halls faith-oriented services, hospitals

7
and health centres has been emphasized, these services offering comparatively
steady and significant sources which allow communities to practice and to operate.
These, and perhaps other, services are pointers of designs of everyday and weekly
conduct. In this reference, they are suggestive of what is recognized as efficient
communities, efficient being one more term to indicate the operational of
communities. To the degree that these conduct forms produce nous of native
belonging; the services also discover the cores of efficient communities, the
apparent or touched communities. With reference to institutes, it is noteworthy that
the progress of kids' trusts and centres implies that in the time to come many
amenities may come to rotate round basic education institutes, so that their salience
might arise as facts of civic facility delivery, along with their importance as the
centres of community procedures.

1.6. Sense of Community

Doolittle and MacDonald (1978) established the 40-article Sense of Community
Scale (SCS) to review interactive conducts and approaches at the society or locality
phase of community association. The SCS is based on what was named as the
"critical measurement of community organization" (Truman, 1969), and it was to be
employed to distinguish low, medium, and high SCS localities on its five aspects:
casual communication (with fellow citizens), security (occupying a decent place to
reside), prourbanism (secrecy, obscurity), neighboring likings (liking for often
neighbor communication), and localism (sentiments and a wish to contribute in
locality matters). The outcomes of Doolittle and MacDonald's research resulted into
three generalities. First, there is an opposite association among pro-urbanism and
liking for neighborhood. Second, there is a straight association among security and
favorite for neighborhood. Lastly, pro-urbanism drops as vision of security rise.

Glynn's (1981) degree of the emotional nous of society is founded on the efforts of
Hillary (1955), enlarged by replies to a survey circulated to arbitrarily chosen
associates of the Division of Community Psychology of the American Psychological
Association. Glynn managed his method to associates of three societies and
theorized that inhabitant of Far Blum, and Israeli kibbutz, would show a superior
nous of society as compared to inhabitants of two Maryland societies. He recognized
202 conducts or sub theories linked to nous of society, out of which 120 articles were
established, demonstrating actual and perfect features. As forecast, greater actual

8
stages of nous of society were there in the kibbutz as compared in the two American
cities.

The toughest forecasters of real nous of society were (a) predictable span of society
placement, (b) fulfillment with the community, and (c) the quantity of fellow citizen
one could recognize by first designation. Glynn got an affirmative association
amongnous of community and the capability to work proficiently in the society.

Rigger and Karakas (1981) researched nous of society as reproduced in locality

connection and got two analytically separate however connected aspects they
named community relationship and interactive rootedness. The community
relationship aspect confined articles regarding the capability to classify fellow citizen,
sensing portion of the locality, and amount of locality kids recognized to the
participant. Interactive rootedness denotes to years of societal placement, whether
one's house is possessed or leased, and projected span of placement. Employing
these aspects, the writers recognized four "significant and separate clusters of
inhabitants": new mobiles (less attached, less rooted), new contributors (high
bonded, low rooted), isolates (low bonded, high rooted), and settled contributors
(high bonded, high rooted). In this research, age played a key character in deciding
affection.

Observing the association among community contribution and degree of inhabitants

‘terror of criminality, Rigger, Legally, and Gordon (1981) recognized four kinds of
community engagement: moods of attachment, scope of inhabited roots,
employment of local services, and level of societal interaction with neighbors. They
got that the main two kinds of attachment were associated knowingly and in reverse
to inhabitants ‘terror of criminality, whereas the latter two, reflecting conducts as
compared to approaches, were not associated meaningfully to terror of criminality. A
reasonable description for the variance associations is that variables within a sphere
(e.g., emotions of attachment and other emotions) are expected to be intensely
associated as compared to variables leisurely although spheres (e.g., emotions and
conducts) (Campbell & Fiske, 1959).

In spite of the infirmity of the research as recommended by a description like that, we

consider that the verdicts of Rigger et al. confirm to the power of nous of community
in the daily lives of locality inhabitants.

9
They got that those who were utmost dedicated and pleased observed their locality
as a minor community inside the town, were far faithful to the locality as compared to
the entire town, and believed of their locality as proposing specific events for its
inhabitants-the features demonstrating the writers' concepts of nous of society. Also
reflected to be a partaker to dedication to locality and fulfillment with it was societal
cloth, a word they employed to capture the "influences of social associations" as
restrained by various kinds of fellow citizen connections.

1.7. Community in Policy documents

An attempt to study the theoretical growth of definition of community of communities
is met by an early hindrance. The policy channels distribute community unevenly into
two elements: the one considers community as social relations; the second, who has
lead between governmental geniuses and public policy experts, theorize channels as
structural relations among commercial, government and private players.

Inside and through these two elements, there is procedural and epistemological
diversity. Some researchers depend on qualitative approaches to plot policy
communities/community whereas others embrace additional quantitative
approaches. The policy documentation focuses on the physical (not social) method
to policy community which leads between differences in viewpoint of scholars of
dominant and public policy. However even inside the physical method, there is no
agreement on the significance of the important notions of policy community and
policy network. Though theoretical variety, there are certain mutual facts of
settlement between those who obey to a policy community/network method.

The policy community/network method is motivated by the faith that these ideas offer
an analytically considerable description of the process of development of policy. As
per Daugbjerg and Marsh (1998: 55) policy on community, says, “Are vital political
organizations by which we are administered or directed.” In same words, Rhodes
(1997) announces that policy community informs us “who administers?” How do they
administer?” and “for whom do they administer?” Moreover, Borzel (1998) defines
community as “one, if not the, leading manner of supremacy in contemporary
governments.” Consequently, the research of policy community is motivated by the
confidence that finding them will recognize who makes verdicts and why verdicts
have the burden they do.

10
After the conceptions of policy network and policy community initially got attention in
the 1970s and particularly the 1980s, they got motivation from growths in local
politics that recommended that policy making had turn into more complicated,
focused, and shattered as governments had extended their contribution in
community and the financial planning. With respect to the complication and specialty,
innovative administrations pursued both probability and constancy in their policy
formation situations, and the assets and collaboration of non-government players.
Dominant governments, it was debated, merely cannot operate individually; they
require the sources that provide information and consent or lively assistance of
social players for influential rule. The rise of policy sub-branches in which
government (primarily bureaucratic executives) and non-government players were
together involved in making policy and execution was observed as an operational
reaction in this reference. The fundamental principle of the policy community/network
method is that it is these which clarify distributed, and comparatively standardized
and synchronized, communications among government and social players that policy
formulation. Concentrating on official and high-level decision-making entities such as
first-ministers, legislature and cabinet sessions therefore disregards the truths of the
policy procedure and confuses the necessities for active and genuine ruling.

By the beginning of network conceiving, the attention was on relations among

government and commercial or other financial welfares; with time, it has been
stretched to include other social players. Conversely, not all expert debates that non-
government players are a vital constituent of policy community. A prominent
protagonist of policy community, the British scholar, R.A. Rhodes, for instance,
usually emphases on associations between government players only, and considers
community are considered to be observed in policy executions compared to making
policy. Till now many experts, counting Canadian researchers, consider community
to be framework of focused crowd mediator that could be observed in one the
policymaking or the other policy execution levels. Where ascertain policy
community/network experts debate that community are so omnipresent in order to
form the leading outline of supremacy in some states such as the European Union
(Ansell 2000), western governments have usually been more careful, advising that
whether policy formulation progresses by means of policy community is a prospect

11
that has to be analytically examined and executed. This would appear, though, to be
some policy fields where in more than one or just one policy society does not prevail.

The initial western governments marked a significant difference among policy

communities and policy community. Deriving from British researchers, Coleman and
Skogstad (1990) employed the word `policy community’ to denote to the group of
players, private and, government that merge nearby a problem range and part a
mutual attention in defining its growth. They accepted Press’s (1986) sub-parts of the
policy community into two divisions: `the attending public’, who upholds an
inspecting brief on growths, and `the sub-state, those keenly involved in policy
making or execution. This perception had the benefit of bringing under notice to
those (the focused populace) who were exempted from the sub-state/policy network.
The model has vibrated with researchers and the word `policy community’ has stirred
into the dictionary of specialists same as into that of scholars.

The opinion that acts as means of communication among government and private
players varied throughout policy realms (and nations) and encouraged the formation
of categories to define these dissimilar designs of interest mediator. Atkinson and
Coleman (1989) were initial category formulators who validated that the binary
differences among tough and feeble nations, and among multiplicity and
commercialism, was unsuccessful to acquire the variety of designs of interest
mediator and government-community associations.

Their description of eight dissimilar community models, consequently employed in

the amended group of case strategies in Coleman and Skogstad (1990), well-known
community on the foundation of the physical sources of government and community
players: more precisely, the official independence of communal interests,
synchronization capability of government players, and the mobilization or structural
growth of communal players. In their award-winning volume, the government,
corporate, and Industrialized Alteration in the west, Atkinson and Coleman related
these physical qualities straight to the receipt and realization of different types of
industrial policies. The Atkinson/Coleman/Skogstad classification proposed a
diversity of dissimilar strengthened associations between government and non-
government players, which also included associations in hierarchy (government
directed community), those where communal players were in the chauffeur’s place

12
(clients pluralist channels), and those where there was a more equitable balance
between state and economic actors (corporatist community). The classification has
itself been polished by other researchers (Pal, 1992) however they have not
discarded its dual physical axes (of government volume/independence and corporate
growth of communal players) or the evidence that these qualities profile the strength
dynamic among government and community in a policy segment.

Whatsoever its charm to specialists, the western classification and difference among
policy societies and policy community has not been similarly incorporated external to
west. There are numerous other classifications, created on similar magnitudes
according to the quantity and kind of members, the operations carried out, and the
stability of strength in the network (for instance, Van Warden 1992). Perhaps the
utmost extensively referred plan is the range established by Rhodes and Marsh
(1992) and cultured by Daugbjerg 1998. It differences policy community in words of
their level of incorporation, association, and circulation of sources between
adherents. At a corner of this range are policy societies, as incorporated, constant
and high-class strategy community and other corner is occupied by problem
community of insecurely associated, manifold, and usually clash backbite adherents.

The request of the Rhodes and Marsh classifies and their relation to `policy
community’ as a particular kind of policy network, has referred the Canadian use of
`policy community’ comparatively to the destiny of the Bemata film. In spite of
criticizers’ grievances that the creation is not very supportive (Atkinson and Coleman
1992; Peters 1998), the western difference among policy communities and problem
community has arisen as the largest one in the works, and ongoing struggles at
category advancement signify changes of the eastern policy society-problem
network range ( for instance, Daugbjerg, 1998, Pressers and O’Toole 1998).

The argument regarding the qualities of numerous network classifications endures,

as do issues with functionalizing prevailing groups of community. Recognizing the
kind of network in space is usually hard and there is debatably lot concern leftover to
the expert in words of placing a title to a network. However, defining the noticeable
magnitudes on which policy communities/community vary seems essential if these
ideas are to carry us outside a portrayal of dissimilar segmental designs of
communication through government and private players to a reason of the way latter

13
outline policy growths, counting policy modification. If policy community are to
function as an autonomous irresolute, they need, finally, differ on few tentatively
important magnitudes.

1.8. Criticisms and Re-conceptualization

Although the political community definitions are supportive in offering an expressive
picture of a policy procedure at a particular instance in time, still, criticizers advise
there are significant boundaries to their strength to describe policy and they result
into three specific issues. First, it requires to be revealed that it is features of the
community himself, instead of the features of the clients to the network, which is the
main clarifying constituent (Dowding, 1995). Second, policy description of community
must be associated more analytically to circumstantial aspects.

The last are the resource of not merely the policy notions and plans that produce
modification, on the other hand describe why specific kinds of community and
societies, benefiting some players and policy results, ascend as well. And third,
respect must be provided to the part of `agency’ in policy communities/community;
which is, the volumes of particular players to react and work on their benefits and
favorites. Energies to reply to the first and second censures, and show that the
restrictions (and prospects) modeled by the network and/or wider reference outline
conduct and policy results, underestimate the autonomous influence of planned
players on means of communication inside the network and eventually policy results.
Criticizers actually said that it is a method that observes political players, policy
network configurations, and circumstantial aspects in communication.

1.9. Community East Vs West

Rudyard Kipling states in the Poem of East and West: “East is east, and West is
west; and not ever the two shall come across.” Still, he never anticipated that with
the technical growth in transport and interaction, the Westerners and Easterners that
have fairly dissimilar beliefs correspondingly would come across so often these days
in global set up. Though, logically, Kipling is unquestionably right in that persons with
dissimilar traditional forms (counting politics, standards, arrogances, rules, duties,
and physical characteristics), particularly those from East and West, do come across
interaction issues, failures, confusions and even fights and conflicts only for the

14
reason that they were not able to comprehend one another in their cross cultural
interaction (Messing, 2009).

For the reason that of dissimilar account, topography, philosophy, finances,

government, tradition, speaking, life style, communal duties, etc., persons in
dissimilar portions of the globe, particularly those in the East and those in the West
do vary intensely in their traditional designs or alignments (D.A. & Perkins, 2003).

For example, the Westerners are expected to be associates of less-context

philosophies, and require straight and clear spoken messages as they part slight
contextual data or perspective. And they have solid positioning of worth uniqueness,
parity and confidence in their communal communication and relational interaction
(Chipuer, 1999). The Easterners, in contrast, are supposed to be high-class, and do
not need much detailed contextual data as most of the data is previously in the folks.
And they, because to their past and custom, have a habit to admire communism,
chain of command and relational synchronization in the community (Canuto, 2000).
These fundamental national changes may be difficult in cross-cultural interaction if
we are in absence of this information.

We exist in an era when deviations in tools, tourism, financial and party-political

methods, migration forms, and inhabitant’s mass have shaped a sphere wherein we
progressively communicate with persons from dissimilar traditions. And however we
want it or not, those communications will endure to develop in both occurrence and
strength. In the 21st era, the world has developed so minor that we all rely on one
another at present. Whatever occurs in one part of the globe influences other parts
as well. So, it is to the benefit of all the almost 6 billion of us who part the globe to
enhance our relational and cross-cultural interaction capabilities. In general, our
philosophies, standards, or traditional designs and alignments regulate what we
observe, the way we respond to circumstances, and the way we associate to others.
Getting aware of the foundation or detailed arrangements of the traditional
modifications may support persons to see underneath to realize why persons from
different traditions behave as they do. In different terms, being aware of the
variances in traditional forms or positioning is much more significant as compared
toeing aware of the eating habits of persons (Scott, 1987). This location may result
into gaining the ironic variety and intellect that occur both in the western and eastern

15
part of the world. Finally, it is just by realizing that we may be clever to get vision into
ourselves and our individual tradition. And according to Halls, “An understanding of
various traditions may fine be our personal most significant strength in facing the
dares of our stints, overseas as well as at home.”

Section 2: Case Study-Dharavi Redevelopment Project

2.1. Dharavi Background

Widely identified as Asia’s biggest slum, encompassing nearly 239 hectares and
over a projected inhabitants around 700,000 and one million individuals (BBC, 2006;
Sharma, 2000), Dharavi is branded by its planned site at the mid of Mumbai and
hence catches itself at the core of an interesting, extremely disputed argument on
the future of the town. By means of the contentious Dharavi Redevelopment Project
(DRP), global creators, officials, government agencies, public community and
societal activities are involved in numerous conflicts over property, mass, type and
the right to a good life, whereas ultramodern Dubai or Shanghai-type sites are
fantasy for growth on what is major real estate at present.

In the past developing from a minor fishing rural community, Dharavi turn into the
city’s topographical focus, since Mumbai’s metropolis growth and matching resident
settlements were moved northwards, away from valued property in South Mumbai on
its present marshy, insanitary site (Sharma, 2000). On one occasion downgraded,
ignored zone Dharavi is currently located among city regions and Mumbai’s
innovative economic center named the Bandra–Kurla Complex, close to the
Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport. From the past the place has been vividly
altered and its growth associated, layering descendants of slum inhabitants in what
are today 85 districts, systematized in a compound maze type physical design,
constructed near multi-operational work-live residence types. Its prosperous casual
economy creates yearly revenue of business projected to be greater than £350m
(BBC, 2006).

The story of Dharavi helps to dig the stuff and lengthy creation of spatiality,
emphasizing land prices and constructed masses at the base of the disputed images
of Mumbai’s future. These aspects emphasize disparities and steer the fight over
place as important administrative and market stresses for turning it into a first-class

16
metropolitan – conveyed over the neoliberal Dream Mumbai– shove beside the fight
for a bottom-up, comprehensive growth procedure encouraged by public community
and mixed resident clusters in Dharavi. The earlier was expressed in a journal
published by Bombay First and McKinsey & Company Inc. (2003), in which out of the
several aims to turn it into a first-class metropolitan one was described as lessening
the amount of persons residing in slums in Mumbai from more than 50 % to 10–20 %
by 2013 by means of “more effective administrative techniques and market-oriented
tools,” and moreover “guaranteeing no fresh slums build up in the town” (ibid., pp.
20–21). Out of the central troops repelling these exclusive, top-down and market-
steered image of Mumbai is the Alliance, an alliance of an NGO called the Society
for the Promotion of Area Resource Centres (SPARC) along with to two non-profit
groups, Mahila Milan and the National Slum Dwellers. This

Comprehensive growth from scratch is compelled by the Alliance in their meeting

with Dharavi’s accommodation supportive societies to build restoration homes by a
society-oriented procedure, and by their contribution in building a substitute for the
Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP).

It was discussed in the review of literature the significance of institutes, stores,

community halls faith-oriented services, hospitals and health centres has not been
under emphasized, these services offering comparatively steady and significant
sources which allow communities to practice and to operate. These, and perhaps
other, services are pointers of designs of everyday and weekly conduct. In this
reference, they are suggestive of what is recognized as efficient communities,
efficient being one more term to indicate the operational of communities. To the
degree that these conduct forms produce nous of native belonging; the services also
discover the cores of efficient communities, the apparent or touched communities.
However, instead of demanding upon a redevelopment of the Dharavi by means of
building new construction projects the governments can initiate redevelopment by
means of offering various community and civil oriented services that are currently
available scarily in the region.

Building upon these spatial pressures among top-down metropolitan policies and
bottom-up strategies of spatial version and metropolitan engagement, the theoretical
buzzword of challenged metropolitan culture is enlarged by discovering the material-

17
expansive agitation concerning the volume of a scheme to engross disruption and
restructure despite the fact of ongoing transformation (Allen, Boano, & Johnson,
2010).

This aligns with theoretical framework discussed previously in the study. It was
discussed that Space is a communal merchandise and is not merely “there”, and is
actually an active, humanly built medium of regulator, and therefore of supremacy, of
strengths’. Lastly, there are the spaces which are demanded by fewer influential
players for or in contrast to the strength bearers, or shaped more independently by
them. Cornwall denotes to these spaces as ‘organic’ spaces which arise ‘out
balances of mutual interests or credentials’ and ‘may arise into existence as a
outcome of widespread organization, like around individuality or concern oriented
worries, or may comprise of spaces where in compatible persons link collected in
mutual recreations. In the present case the mutual interests are of the builders and
the government to make of the available land and further the community living there
and the NGOs to preserve what they have. Precisely, the thing pursues to spatially
portray the contests and objectives for the existence of unstable personalities and
constructions over the challenging and hindering kinds of supremacy in Mumbai and
Dharavi that form publics’ admittance to lodging and slum renovation, as paradigm of
a broader challenge over societal integrity.

In this reference, the idea of disputed metropolitan culture targets to characterize

numerous powers that form the policies of Dharavi, presenting serious perceptions
and, probably, a revived moral regeneration of the disciplines of design and
metropolitan strategy.

2.2. Relations between stakeholders

So as to comprehend how the spatialities of disputed metropolitan culture are
replicated and a dichotomization of place as corporal, stationary, metric place with
societal agitations must initially be strengthened. Image of this kind is not fresh but
worked upon in Heidegger’s (1962) “human spatiality”, Lefebvre’s (1991) usage of
“existed place of the societal and political world” and Bauman’s (1993) embracing of
multifaceted spatial communication among “reasoning, ethical and artistic places and
goods”. This agenda allows a in depth insight of the supreme associations implanted
in town makeovers that methodically omit Dharavi’s slum inhabitants in the

18
administration, adaptation, and development of their existing places, hence
straightaway stimulating ideas of equality and consistency, generating seats for
substitute cures in contrast to the removal of “transformation” (Jameson, 1991).

In this reference Sandercock (2005) mentions that self-governing exercise is

weakened, since the contradictive principles of common crowds are socialized by
individuals in rule having justified their personal prudence of what creates a “decent
town.” She too suggests that within the modern age, progressively molded by
worldwide aggressive capital, the principles that mold metropolitan sites are keen to
turn into little locally circumstantial and more affected by a variety of leadership “pre-
shaped and accepted cultural essentials,” which target to offer “social assistance” to
a “pre-planned vision” of a maintainable, fit, striking, and aggressive “decent town” –
as is seen in the exclusive, top-down principles conveyed by Vision Mumbai.
Regardless of such huge idealistic metropolitan visions, in reality, place has
continued to be characteristic of actual/simulated supremacy and cash, and is hence
an article of important controversy.

The findings and annexation of such dialogues in reference to Dharavi points out to
the letdown of planners to focus their personal considerations to evaluation and
avoid their passion with the article itself, in the procedure opening up place for more
traditionally delicate methods to build house or renovate in town makeovers.

A dream like that, wherein integrating the idea of spontaneous, rhizomatic, liquid and
obviously cumulative manufacture of places, as Brillembourg (2004, p. 79) claims,
“links to the kingdom outdoor what is agreed logic, employed with what previously
prevailed, substantially and communally,” as a “shared structure” breaking down the
eternally unstable (Roy, 2009b, p. 80) contrast of the lawful–unlawful, genuine–illicit;
official–unofficial.
Further, the Foucaultian idea of heterotopias (1967), which accurately implies “other
places,” is an applicable depiction of Dharavi’s substantiality and story. Such
skeptical places expose or signify a bit in reference to the community wherein they
live over the ambiguities they form but are incapable to solve, in a constant instability
among ambiguity and approval, hiddenness and acknowledgment.

19
In spirit, heterotopias are places that lodge the divergent and provide home to the
“other,” separating them and letting techniques “of control circulation and spaces in a
community” (Allweil & Kallus, 2008).

Therefore, considering Dharavi not as an equal “worldwide example of a populace

depository” (Davis, 2006) but as an “actual positioning that concurrently signifies,
competitions and contraries all other ambiences” (Faubion, 2008) or a town formed
of contamination, uncertainty, and in a situation of continuous transformation, will
benefit us to know slum modernism.

Hence, considering Dharavi not as an equal “worldwide example of a populace

depository” (Davis, 2006) but as an “actual positioning that concurrently signifies,
competitions and contraries all other ambiences” (Faubion, 2008) or a town formed
of contamination, uncertainty, and in a situation of continuous transformation, will
benefit us to know slum modernism as a reply and struggle to government and
financial-led ideal and futuristic development. There “the casual clarifies the performs
(societal, financial, architectural and metropolitan) and the procedures (spatial and
physical) that a collection of shareholders (inhabitants, designers, architects,
property-owners and the government) accept not just to acquire admittance to
property and lodging, but to gratify their requirement to involve in town life as well”
(Brillembourg, 2004), and in spirit permits for the rise of methods of profound social
equality (Appadurai, 2001). A heterotopian dream like that assists to structure
Dharavi and its disputed modernism as “places separately, exposed but lonely”
(Foucault, 1984, p. 180), a place of delusions that condemns everything in space
round it and challenges the deadliness and supremacy of the Dharavi
Redevelopment Project (DRP).

Truly, no dominant strategy, metropolitan design, zoning regulation, or building act

can ask for share in Dharavi’s property, since it was constructed several eras ago
exclusively by continuous movement of migrants flying rural scarcity, political
harassment, and regular tragedies (Echanove & Srivastava, 2009).

2.3. Dharavi and Policies

From the initial 1990s, inside the agenda of the Administration of Maharashtra’s slum
restoration scheme, the Bharat Janata and Rajiv Indira Cooperative Housing
Societies have functioned with the not for profit contractor group called NIRMAN of

20
the Alliance in the making of their individual slum restoration home-making. In these
model setup events, the Alliance has pursued to allow a bottom-up method by
straight involving Dharavi’s underprivileged in the manufacture of place in Dharavi,
demanding their right to accommodation in the town. These actions demonstrate, by
earlier unrecognized resolutions in place they regulate the town poor’s capability to
contest and alter formal guidelines and protocols that incline to work in the benefits
of leading authorities. By manufacturing homes, the Alliance put forward an example
as an NGO contractor doing this job as Lefebvrian manufacture of place ideas
reveals in actual instances of bottom-up, society-steered metropolitan growth
procedures. The latter is built in volume construction and authorizing slum
inhabitants by exercise and service in the construction procedure, and particularly by
connecting and instructing expertise to let them to deal with the government.

Standard set up offers a language tool for dealing among the authorities of town
administration and the “unlawful” engagements as well to which the underprivileged
generally must have choice, transferring the load for civic bureaucrats and other
specialists far from cleaning unlawful actions in the direction of constructing on
“genuine” replicas (Appadurai, 2001).

In modern ages, though, fronting “Dubaification” in the top-down, technological DRP

procedure, Dharavi’s title as a exceptional development zone in 2004 – a position
that allows private alteration of growth guidelines – has push the supremacies of
growth totally into the influence of the state and secretive segment. Later in following
years of bottom-up stress strategies and fights, counting exposed literatures to the
administration and broadcast media and nonviolent complaints from inhabitants of
Dharavi, frontrunners of noticeable proletarian crowds and non-profits and the
Concerned Citizens of Dharavi (CCD), a place was prepared for recognized
contribution when the CCD was authorized as a Committee of Experts (CoE) in
2008.

21
2.4. Current Scenario
This section is an overview to the basics of the scientific research that was
conducted for the research. Primarily, dissimilar philosophies about scientific
research are discussed and afterwards used to describe the structure of the thesis.

Research

The result of being aware of anything learned over experience or relationship is

described as Knowledge. Study is the pursuit and procedure of discovering fresh
knowledge and it also enhances or alters the current viewpoint in a specified area of
research as well. Research is hence the progressive procedure by which fresh
knowledge and prevailing evidences by new findings can be defined. Knowledge and
research are therefore nearly interrelated and reliant on each other (Potter, 1996).

For any research to be prosperous, one must intent to satisfy the under mentioned
three standards:

 Accuracy
 Objectivity
 Balance

Accuracy needs that data stated in a research shall be correct and truthful. This is
confirmed by employing a variety of resources, probably primary resources earlier to
secondary, and by inspecting the subject matter and source of any resources like
that. Objectivity means the significance of outcome of all perspectives, mainly in
which opposing opinions over a specified query, and by escaping the effect of the
writer’s opinions and prejudices. The word balance denotes to the goal of offering
the correct place for the dissimilar constituents within the topic one is inspecting, and
to escape giving scope for immaterial facts and perception (Ejvegård, 2009). With
the overhead specified standards in thoughts one can start the scientific research by
selecting a topic and conveying an issue, involving the goal and purposes of the
study. An appropriate methodology and investigation methods can then be
implemented (Svenning, 2003).

22
Methodology and technique for scientific studies

Methodology is the systematic technique of approaching and discussing a topic of

study. Technique in contrast, denotes to the procedure of collecting things for
explanation, assessment and the founding of a theory or forecasts. The selected
approaches and methods will saturate the whole of the study, and thus disturb the
conclusions done. Selecting these on purpose will aid the scholar on the way to
satisfying the standards specified overhead (Ejvegård, 2009).

Research can be founded on whichever qualitative or quantitative information;

otherwise it might be founded on a blend among the two. Quantitative information,
also denoted to as cold statistics, is arithmetical and provable information open to
arithmetical modification. The information is quantified by an appropriate amount and
mechanisms to reply the problem “how many”. Qualitative information, or soft
numbers, obverse, estimated, however does not assess, the elements of an article
or occurrence and toil to reply the query “why”. In summary, quantitative information
outlines, while qualitative information explains (Svenning, 2003; Potter 1996).

Information retrieval

As problem design, procedure and their results are interrelated in study; the
information retrieval procedure is of countless significance to the outcome. Inside the
framework of study all on paper stuff, like write-ups, records, theses and others, are
overall taken in account as literature.

But, when looking for anxieties, views and information inside some populace,
consultations and surveys are usually employed. It is thus likely to get data that can’t
be observed from the existing literature (Merriam, 1994).

The citations and employed stuff should be assessed as per to the under mentioned
standards:

 Authenticity
 Independence
 Freshness
 Concurrency

23
Concerning technology, some features must be considered like dimensions, gauging
devices, constraints, trials and technique of investigation (Ejvegård, 2009). They
must be trustworthy and legal so as to be valuable and correct. If the similar
research is done again deprived of any alterations inside the populace, and the
outcomes are same as before, the research is then said to be trustworthy. If the
research do well in calculating what is anticipated it is said to be usable. The study
outcome has no technical worth if these necessities are not satisfied (Svenning,
2003).

Literature study

Study desires to produce understanding and must consequently be founded on, or

take into account, earlier efforts that has been done in the area of study (Merriam,
1994). If one did not take into account earlier research and inquiries, there is an
excessive chance that one might create a replica of an earlier research, do the study
upon a small subject, or repeat pointless errors previously done by others. A
literature study assembles and deduces a range of earlier printed efforts within a
defined area, and hence what has been determined earlier (Merriam, 1994). Hence,
the use of a literature study allows the scholar to donate by enduring the procedure
of study founded upon earlier efforts made. To be aware of the earlier study and
concepts can also ease when outlining groups and preparing the experiential stage
along with deducing the attained outcomes.

Interviews

Interviews are the widely used methods for gathering information, they pursue to
look for what somebody else are aware, reasons, needs, and they discover the
topic’s attitude and individual experiences (Merriam, 1994). Information from
interview is generally important to form a perception for the problem researched. The
features of interviews vary from other primary data collection methods in that the
queries are molded contrarily and therefore the responses they provoke (Starring
and Svensson, 1994). For instance, queries in a survey are all the time-organized,
whereas an interview permits a blend of organized and non-organized queries. The
responses can either be of a direct or indirect character reliant on whether the
participant is permitted to talk easily, or whether they must select among predefined

24
responses. The investigator has the chance to select the arrangement that is most
suitable for the study and the features of the anticipated responses.

Applied method

This research targets to collect information about the procedure of redevelopment

and slum advancement in slum establishments to understand the way this may
impact the household and community inside a specific part. The research sees to
clarify the study aims from the viewpoint of the people in the perspective of a case
research part. In this case, detailed study themes like individual opinions, prospects
and understandings are treated. Therefore, the study approaches are largely of a
qualitative as compared to quantitative character. Though quantitative information
has, to certain degree, been employed as additional information to form a vital
foundation of information and has developed a significant constituent to this study.
Also, all through conferences queries of a numerical kind, have allowed an early
interaction with the participants and have consequently led the conversation on top
of the added quantitative stuffs.

Numerous interviews with citizens of Dharavi were conducted. One of the

participants, a 73-year old person, who took birth and has expended his whole life in
Dharavi, is a tenant of Dharavi from a long time and a second generation refugee to
the town. In 1924 his ancestor marched the 200 kilometers from Ahmednagar to
Mumbai, looking for occupation and finally settled down in a region that nowadays is
situated on the borders of Dharavi. Then, just a small number of sheds were set in
the region and there were quite lot of plants and exposed place. The plot where he
established was privately possessed and instituted of free-hold property. The vendor
of the property had constructed few homes, of which one was leased by the
participants ‘family, including of two guardians and their six kids, of whom the
participant is the eldest. Additionally to this family, there were 15 other occupancies
in the similar region. Rental was cheap and salaried for financially, with the revenue
of the minor store the participant’s father had begun at one more site in Dharavi.
Though, the father died when the participant was only a young teen and being the
eldest lad, it was is obligation of giving the family with revenue. The participant
succeeded to do the seventh class of school earlier look for inoccupation in the
supervision of a close by school, in which he worked for four eras. Being employed,

25
the participant made it likely for his younger family members to go to school and get
them certified, “The theory of Dharavi was to solid study and solid work”.

In Family of another participant, in 1956 the 16 occupancies in the range started a

facility makeover. The eldest lad of the family had by now gone out of Dharavi and
purchased a home in Navi Bombay and the left behind family members took the
decision to do the same and creep up. But, the participant was not happy there and
came back to his family’s earlier house in Dharavi, now somewhat improved. The
participant got wedded to a native girl and they had one girl, developing the nuclear
family of three as nowadays.

Though, the life style and amenities given to the majority of participants interviewed
were deprived and near all occupants and the property-owner decided to get it an
address, as per one participant “all occupants collected and built a structure in
association with the landlord”. Now, majority of occupancies have been substituted
with a seven floor cement CO-OP construction community, in which all the original
occupants were allowed housing cost free. The structure clamps 70 flats and upon
retailing the additional 54, the excess cash was given to the landlord in give-and-take
for the property currently possessed by the structure community. All of the
inhabitants occupied the new house and till today reside there, away from 2 families
who have vended their flats due to financial issues. When vending a flat in the
structure, fellow adherents of the CO-OP are firstly presented to purchase the flat. If
a not interested or cost cannot be settled upon, the flat can be retailed to a stranger.
The participant, along with family, lives in a 25 square meter flat situated on the fifth
storey of the building. Water, power-supply, lavatory and a distinct pantry is there
and the entire structure is attended by lifts. Each six months a fee that covers the
common looking after and administrative tolls is extracted. A participant mentions
that the local participation in the improvement has made this specific building
community more prosperous as compared to others. But, he is of the opinion that the
erection of the flat is a concern, producing separation for its occupants and he
desires for an additional communicating project design. One more reason for the
success of this housing project is the point that the property was possessed in
private and not by the state. About the planned redevelopment of Dharavi, majority
of participants are very doubtful and a lot worried. They have feelings that the
intention behind renovation is not for the benefits of occupants; for economic growth

26
instead of human growth and that the aspect of kindness is not reflected, while
currency is. This has lead to Dharavi being misused by revenue-driven builders
observing the prospective in Dharavi as leading property to be retailed and by
statesmen considering Dharavi as a “poll bank”, where assuring growth may create
polls. Moreover, a participant talks about private shareholders and mafia gangs that
have impacted the planned growth. He also has feeling that numerous of the NGO’s
lively in the growth do not have sufficient awareness of Dharavi as a public and
community. As per a participant, few of the residents of Dharavi have begun to
wonder regarding renovation. In case provided a flat cost free, a retailing of it may
produce a hefty sum of currency, value more than the advanced lifestyle given. This
can result into persons leaving Dharavi, forming new slums somewhere else. The
renovation strategy can hence be observed as a complicated technique of motivating
the residents of Dharavi to leave, as a possible result forecast by the state is that
persons will need to leave. Moreover, another participant mentions, “Dharavi
persons are not habitual to this standard of living”, implying that the cost of
maintenance will be high along with the uncommon resident may result in a “vertical
slum”. Hence, the redevelopment strategy will consequently not resolve the issues of
the community.

27
 3. Conclusion
The research scenarios have established the significance of obtainable models
about slum creation and the features of slum. It has been discovered that debates
about the crescendos of casual establishments are mainly ruled by absence of
adequate awareness, in specific on the topic of renovation. This is mostly because of
no interest and abandonment by the state. The subject is more heightened by the
point that casual establishments generally are detached from the adjacent towns and
are hence related with terror. In return, such establishments are omitted and ignored
from official schemes and as a result, inside processes take place. The processes
are founded on casualness, which still is a requirement for the presence of the same.
Renowned markets rise inside the establishments and the privatization is a necessity
for an operative market, therefore the cost is maintained less. This is essential for
the unprivileged populace and interfering of market like that would lead to problems
to cope with price, because of an incapability of inexpensive competiveness. This
worries daily merchandises along with land market linked expenditures. Still,
casualness and the elimination are also problems for achievement of few
settlements and donating features to societal dysfunction. The subject of outcomes
of restoration is in the first place a political issue. The absence of awareness about
the underlying forces of slums, the inducements for restoration and the will to deliver
adequate housing for the deprived are the key problems associated to growth. So as
to effectively restore the deprived populace of a town, these problems must be
solved.

3.1. Further Research

Suggestion of additional investigation inside the area of research:

 To embrace added regions with a topographical extent in the research.

 To research how reasonable rental housing might be fashioned and what
influence it would have on the accommodation market.
 To examine the wants of dissimilar focus crowd in slum regeneration.
 To recognize resemblances and dissimilarities in restoring projects of
developing and developed nations.
 To examine the vital aspects required for a positive restoration project.
 To see into what legislature is required and how it must be applied so as to
effectively maintain slums.

28
 To research the effect on land cost of a slum restoration.
 To do a deep shareholder study of a slum restoration plan.
 To assess the Dharavi Redevelopment Project once it’s executed. Sustained
researches inside the overhead areas of research, could further donate to a
swelling familiarity about growth of casual establishments and hence the
achievement of plans like that.
