Summary:	Nandini Gooptu's history of the Indian urban poor represents a tour-de-force. It focuses on themes ranging from the social construction of poverty, religious and caste identities and nationalist and labour politics. In this way, the book contributes to current debates on the nature of subaltern politics and consciousness.
