    A Journey from the Periphery to the Core of Middleclassness
    (University of North Bengal, 2019-03) Roy, Sanjay K
    The bourgeois democratic societies of Western and Indian forms always provide some free space using which an individual can move through ranks. One such movement or social mobility could be from rural lowermiddleclass position to the urban middleclass position. One can leave the struggling days on the margins behind to move to the affluence and social recognition that urban middleclassness offers. The present paper is an autonarrative of such as journey of a “refugee” child to the core of middleclass culture in West Bengal.
