Description:
We develop a sociologically and politically grounded multi-scale mensuration framework forresidential segregation in urban India. Our rich dataset that we use to illustrate our framework contains independent India's first census-scale enumeration (n ≈ 60million) and codingof elementary caste categories (≈ 700 jatis). Using household-level data, we delineate thefirst large-n portrait (≈ 45, 000 neighborhood units) of how ghettos and enclaves in Indiaare the warp and weft of a common spatially ordered fabric. We find systematic evidence forpersistent spatial marginalization of Muslims and Dalits (the formerly “untouchable” castegroups)
