In 1989, Bangalore dreamed a grand dream-the construction of an international airport for the city. The dream came true in 2008. This book traces the convoluted meanderings of the airport's compelling journey over two decades.The micro-managerial challenges & socio-political jostlings in this slice of the contemporary history of an Indian city uncovers a morality tale; the promises & perils of public private partnerships in infrastructure megaprojects across emerging economies.Providing much needed scholarship on the detailed process of decision making in a real life scenario, this minutely researched cross-disciplinary study moves to a unique research position which recognizes the special characteristics of PPPs and how they impact on the practice of partnerships.An easy narrative style;readable decision stories;a comprehensive survey of PPP literature; an insiders' understanding of political realities & policy processes;serious use of unconventional data sources & a contextual background of aspirational Bangalore as a global city are other highlights of the book.An essential handbook for public policy practitioners and researchers who deal with infrastructure governance.
