Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Adopting a perspective that takes recourse to new theoretical and conceptual categories when analysing the tribal social formation and their current situation, the work attempts to understand different aspects of tribal society, economy and polity. It establishes that, first and foremost, the tribals have a distinct, indigenous ethnic, historical and cultural identity and they constitute a distinct society which is neither Christian nor Hindu. It analyses the official tribal policy, the tribal movements and other aspects of primitive life as well as tribal problems and issues of development. The authors bring to attention perplexing questions of tribal behaviour like the prevailing "culture of silence" against injustices among those tribes that were at one time in the forefront in revolting against the oppressive British policies. Attempts to understand different aspects of tribal society, economy and polity. This work establishes that, first and foremost, the tribals have a distinct, indigenous ethnic, historical and cultural identity and they constitute a distinct society which is neither Christian nor Hindu.
