Sports and Conflict in Urban Planning: The Indian National Games in Bangalore
In: Journal of sport and social issues: the official journal of Northeastern University's Center for the Study of Sport in Society, Band 23, Heft 1, S. 5-23
ISSN: 1552-7638
The National Games, designed to develop Olympic talent and promote national unity, also allow the channeling of resources for the development of a sports infrastructure in Indian cities. This study of the 1997 National Games in Bangalore discusses the intersection between urban planning, sports infrastructure, and social organization. Issues covered include financing, the political economy underlying construction of facilities, slum removal, and the projection of nationalist ideology. In all cases, the sports spectacle uncovers and activates a range of social conflicts that reveal contradictions between social equity and planning models.

Urban geography and land measurement in the twelfth century: The case of Kanchipuram
In: The Indian economic and social history review: IESHR, Band 41, Heft 3, S. 237-268
ISSN: 0973-0893
The authors compute the length of the 16-span rod, a measuring instrument used in the Kanchipuram region during the late Chola period, by combining information on land boundaries from a single inscription with fieldwork and map tools. In the process, they reconstruct part of the geography of the city and examine long-term changes in land use, with implications for historical preservation. The article suggests that the application of this methodology to other epigraphic records may allow the detailed reconstruction of early agrarian and urban environments, and contribute to the quantitative evaluation of land holding or revenue systems.
