15 Scenes of rural change Lightweight times: appraisals of the present in and around Ghatiyali What I know about the experience of rural modernity is based on nearly three decades of intermittent research as a cultural anthropologist in one small area of Rajasthan. Ghatiyali village, where most of my fieldwork was based, is located near the centre of Rajasthan in the geographical region known, after its major river, as the Banas Basin. In the years preceding India’s Independence and Rajasthan’s slightly later incorporation into the new Indian republic, Ghatiyali was part of a twenty-seven-village kingdom named after its capital, Sawar.

But these days, until afternoon comes, we are waiting for our tea.
