We had an engaging 3rd session in the current edition of the book discussion series, with @Madhulika963 and @SantanaKhanikar leading the discussion on James Scott's 'Seeing Like a State', on 27th September.
The session, chaired by @George_Ohh, saw a critical engagement with the book's primary thesis that states simplify and force 'legibility' on local societies, ignoring valuable localised knowledges in the process.
