Abstract

[This chapter interrogates the relationship between a state’s legitimacy in the eyes of the people and the state’s relation to responsibility and action in the face of a crisis. This relationship is also problematised by the internal divisions and multiple identities contains within the state’s boundaries and the complex character that both legitimacy and responsibility can take. The data is focused on the city of Delhi during the pandemic crisis from March 2020 to the summer of 2021. The key areas of theoretical concern are legitimacy, populism and democracy and the troubled relationship between them.]
