A rebellious type of “act” named for these places is the focus of a 2022 book by Veena Das. A portmanteau merging these places with an occupation is often applied to Peter Rachman, who inspired the term “Rachmanism.” A book about one of these places chronicles a garbage sorter accused of arson and is titled for a tile ad on an airport wall. The growth of these places is the subject of a Mike Davis book titled for a “Planet of” them. One of these places called Annawadi is the focus of Katherine Boo’s Behind the Beautiful Forevers. Dharavi, the largest of these places, is a setting of Vikas Swarup’s novel Q & A, which Danny Boyle adapted into a movie partly titled for these places about a poor game show contestant. For 10 points, favelas exemplify what poor, densely populated urban areas? ■END■
