In this chapter, Jegathesan seeks to answer the question of how ur is experienced by the “landless citizens who continue to inhabit the industrial-residential landscape of the tea plantations” (102). The links and bonds that exist between these people resists the landscape. It is through this writing that I am drawn to the phenomenon of place-making and spatio-temporal freedom. These workers and their families assert their agency through place-making and the assignment of spatial meaning to their line room homes. Not only do they construct new meaning of ur for themselves and their community, but they also disrupt the dominant geographic constructions of this area where they labor. In this way, they exert power, despite their lack of capital, and create both a permanent and transient space wherein they can engage in identity production and activities that are centered around building community.
