First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. The papers included in this volume primarily focus on contradicting perspectives, competing interests and emerging outcomes when the relation between tribes and their resource perceptions shifts along the line of corporate-induced development projects. Precisely, it is a compendium of issues related to development induced displacement. With distinct analytical frames and empirical findings, the papers, contributed by the experts in the field academics, bureaucrats and activists alike unambiguously present a critique to perspectives of people s development within the frame of contemporary development discourse. In a broad sense the relation between ecology and economy has been examined through the papers with reference to specific contexts in development practices where resource perception and utilization are contested by traditional and commercial users. No doubt, the book will be handy for anyone who needs/wants to know the full range of issues on tribal development vis-à-vis mega projects.

Tribal studies have been a critical area of enquiry, starting from colonial requirements to contemporary interest of government organizations and NGOs, anthropo-sociological adoption to cross disciplinary recognition, culture and ethnography to multidisciplinary methodological perspectives, academic pursuits to project-induced necessity of evaluation and assessment and from depicting tribes as others to integrating them in nation-building. The emerging trend reflects on perspective shifts and expansions through essays included in this book, thus mapping multi-dimensional growth of knowledge over a wide range of topical issues on the subject over a period of more than a century. Precisely, the volume is a pioneering attempt to locate whither tribal studies through collection of essays from scholars of diverse background. This volume undoubtedly will be of interest to scholars and students across disciplines. Administrators, policy makers, rights activists and all those interested to know the process of expansion and institutionalization of knowledge on tribal studies in India will also find it useful.

The interest to study the tribes has greatly contributed to the origin and growth of the discipline of Anthropology. However over the years the discipline has got diversified encompassing themes and communities pertaining to both the tribe and non tribe categories. Civilizational studies village studies ecological studies study of urban and industrial societies etc. are a few examples. Nevertheless the significance of the study of tribes has not been reduced with the diversification of the discipline of anthropology. Rather growing inter disciplinary interests in their study have been contributing strengthening and evolving what we see as tribal studies in recent years. Not only academics but NGOs and GOs also do take interest in tribal studies mainly in development perspectives. Conversely concepts and approaches evolved from the study of the tribes are being applied to the understanding of current issues like identity development etc. in multi disciplinary perspectives. The present volume with four thematic divisions namely culture and identity expanding frontiers in tribal studies development perspectives and social process and thirteen papers under these divisions broadly initiates a comprehensive exploration of the dynamics of tribal studies. Obviously the strength of the volume emanates from the growing significance and emerging attention to the distinct analytical issues and empirical findings in the realm of tribal studies. No doubt the volume will come handy among the NGO activists planners bureaucrats and social scientists in general and the students of tribal studies in particular not only in understanding the expanding frontiers of knowledge in the realm but also in contextualizing the dynamics of perspectives and methodological issues. 248 pp.
