Urban Aspirations in Global Cities
TISS-Max Planck-PUKAR Project

"Urban Aspirations in Global Cities" is a collaborative project between TISS, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religion and Diversity, Gottingen and PUKAR, Mumbai. The project aims to compare post-colonial megacities in Asia, including Mumbai, Singapore and Shanghai, to understand how the urban community of rapidly growing megacities impacts the development of religious and ethnic aspirations.
