3. Preparing for a just transition away from coal: Proposal for a Closed Coalfield Land Rights and Restitution Act

Author

Oskarsson, Patrik and Chhotray, Vasudha

Abstract

The dominance of coal for Indian energy security might, finally, be about to reduce as increasing demands are made for a just transition to cleaner and more community-friendly forms of energy. Possibilities for mine-affected communities to take control of the coalfield lands that will become abandoned by the inevitable closure of coal are explored.

Abstract

Nikita Sud describes her latest book as "a telling of the life of contemporary India, as if land mattered" (p. xiii). Sud argues that neither land nor the state are fixed entities, and the process of land-making in India is itself forged by the process of state-making. The state occupies a central presence in this work, where Sud, in Chapters 1 and 2, brings into focus the intertwined lives of the state with the many lives of land. [Extracted from the article]
