Abstract

Informal sector is vulnerable to exogenous shocks much more than the formal sector. Even within the formal sector due to heterogeneity, vulnerability differs. This chapter deals with a historical case study of the outcome of an exogenous shock to Kolkata informal sector in the context of 1992 communal violence. The snapshot study of post-Ayodhya riots revealed that the more stable formal sector intended to ensure its economic security by dumping goods and other consumables in the informal sector with which it had linkages. As a result the latter suffered worse economic loss. The same kind of phenomenon was observed in Kolkata during COVID 19 lockdown phase.
