An Unsettled (E)state Available to Purchase

The book concludes with a broader reflection on the expansive ways the trust mechanism allows one to rethink notions of time, obligation, kinship, and capital. Within the constant transformation of Mumbai, the trust's endurance and particular material, social, and legal constructions push toward new potentials for the ways in which religious groups may manage their lifeworlds in cities today. It will reflect on how the trust, as a time-keeping device, has been pivotal as a mechanism of finance and communal connection across generations.
