Description

Explore the complex social dynamics of South Asia with Begging, Street Politics and Power. This Routledge publication examines the phenomenon of begging through the lens of two different religions and societies in India and Pakistan. By looking at both religious and secular laws, this book provides a deep look at how begging is regulated and the power dynamics that shape these interactions. Using textual analysis and qualitative field research, the text examines the concepts of charity within Hinduism and Islam. It looks at the transaction of giving and receiving while analyzing the political structures present in the studied locations. This work is an essential resource for those studying the social and legal frameworks that govern street life and religious practice in the region.
