Ways of knowing the wastewaterscape: Urban political ecology and the politics of wastewater in Delhi, India
This study demonstrates how wastewater is embedded in an arena of social relations of power, defined as the wastewaterscape
Abstract
The notion of waterscape has been proposed by urban political ecology (UPE) scholars as a conceptual lens for understanding urban hydro-social flows. So far, however, there has been little attention by UPE scholars to the importance of wastewater in urban waterscapes. This study demonstrates how wastewater is embedded in an arena of social relations of power, defined in this article as the wastewaterscape.
