What are the interactional dynamics between different groups of men on city streets? How do men adjudicate between good and bad conduct in urban spaces?

It follows the labor geographies of autorickshaw and taxi operators and their interactions with traffic police and commuters to argue that the gendered fabric of urban life needs to be understood as a product of situational forms of cooperation between different social groups. Such an orientation sheds light on the part played by everyday morality and provisional support in upholding male privilege in the city"-- | ||
