Written by

Ed.

Summary:

This article interrogates the discourse of ‘greenfield development’ in contemporary India with special reference to the development of a greenfield airport in Goa. By unpacking the conflictual process between carrying out and challenging environmental impact assessments (EIAs) in connection with large-scale infrastructure projects, the article analyses the EIA process as one that simultaneously induces the articulation and territorialisation of the discourse of greenfield development in particular environments, with far-reaching consequences in terms of environmental change and land dispossession.
