Politics and society between elections.

Abstract
The problems of India’s development and governance are routinely linked to the logic
of India’s electoral democracy. As a result, a great deal is known about elections, but
paradoxically our knowledge of politics and society between elections is relatively
underdeveloped. As much as anything else, development and governance outcomes
are shaped by how the government functions between elections; including how it relates
to citizens on a regular basis, how it provides routine public services to them, and how
public order is maintained. Further, governance processes are nested in the social and
political relationships between citizens and government functionaries.
