The state and the market in the mainstream development mode, which characterises this process, interact almost exclusively with the upper, visible and dominant segments of the society, subjecting vast number of people lower down the hierarchy to silence. The politics of identity manifests itself either as a protest or as a protective response to these exclusionary parties of both the state and the market. - Reproduced aDemocracy - India aDemocracy aEconomic and Political Weekly a41841 c41841d41841 00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 34, Issue no: 32pAR42218r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
