> This panel proposes to examine the neoliberal forms of development
> practiced in various national and regional contexts in South Asia and the
> popular responses to these. Neoliberalism itself has been defined as a
> class project fundamentally whereby the capitalist classes or their
> representatives have attempted to use various types of resources--
> economic, social, political and cultural--to enhance capital
> accumulation. This panel seeks to present studies from various contexts in
> South Asia that, based on empirical examination of specific local/
> regional/national processes of development in the 'neoliberal era', would
> contribute to expanding the above stated general theoretical
> understanding. Given that development is an encompassing concept, this
> panel doesn't intend to restrict papers to any particular 'sub-theme'.
> However, as a point of reference, research papers could include
> 'sub-themes' such as practices of development, role of civil society,
> class conflict, resource use etc.
