Hardcover. Condition: New. The marginalized self questions The century-old perception of the Musahar community as rat-eating, pig-rearing, habitually drunk, lazy and unmotivated; a perception fostered by the dominant discourse of development, and the historically prevalent hierarchical social system. This collection of essays argues that these victims of the dominant model of development acquire a different kind of power and critical consciousness due to their marginality, which helps them to examine the processes, practices, and institutions that give rise to and justify poverty, displacement, corruption, greed, competition, and violence in the name of development. Ethnographic studies focussing on the Musahar have demonstrated that the people of this community are capable of offering resistance to the might of the development regime in terms of a comparative critique of modern civilization.They can assert the value of their own world view and epistemology, and in doing so, they subvert the superiority that is generally assigned to the logical and formal schema in understanding the world, and which often speaks in contradictory, evasive, ambiguous, and metaphorical terms. The book offers insights into marginality, culture, and development in India, and will be of interest to students, scholars, practitioners and policy-makers associated with the disciplines of development studies, social Work, social anthropology, critical social psychology, history, and public policy.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The book brings together narratives of earth-stolid pastoral nomads and experiences of their mobility across different terrains as they negotiate the harsh terrain in interiors of the Thar. Synthesising learnings from lived experience of development practice with pastoralists for two and a half decades and an ethnographic study of selected villages in Bikaner and Jaisalmer, the volume transcends tragic tropes about pastoralism that have obfuscated perspectives about pastoralists in academia, policy discourse and state action. Instead, it argues for an interweaving of pastoral destinies with our destinies in the quest for a sustainable world. Pastoral communities offer useful cues on sustainable natural resource management, values of frugality and gratitude to nature.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Of enticing overtures and ecstatic renditions introduces issues of pathos and destitution that paradoxically engulf the lives of musician communities whose music is the harbinger of peace, serenity and soulful ecstasy. The unique bio physical and ecological context has unfolded into frontier histories and blended traditions have bequeathed these folk musicians with a unique variety of folk Islam as they were transmitted for generations in a predominantly pastoral context. These sufi mystical music traditions constitute the kernel of veneration of sufi saints of popular Islam primarily followed by Muslim nomadic and semi nomadic pastoralists, and revered by Hindus alike. Instead of getting mystified by a cultural aesthetic, it is important to invest in human resources and effortlessly across different repertoires and performative contexts exemplifies innovation that springs from frugal resources and a tenacious core of these traditions of intangible heritage. It is this that needs to be nurtured and cultural skills of these unique producers of folk culture. The versatile ability displayed by these musicians to straddle safeguarded. 84 pp. Englisch.
