In recent years, the term Health Disparity and Health Equity have become increasingly familiar, particularly in the field of public health. The editors of this book have brought together a variety of articles from researchers of diverse fields in anthropology to focus on the importance of health equity among the indigenous peoples, including those who are marginalized or underprivileged. This will help the reader to understand the problem that arises out of health disparity and the various ways to overcome it. One of the most interesting features of this book is that the contributing authors of most of the articles have discussed their findings based on field work. Besides, researchers of varied other fields of public health, economics, sociology etc., have brought out various dimensions which have added further value for which the volume will be extremely beneficial to policy makers. Such an interdisciplinary approach makes it more useful for both the scholars who are pursuing research in medicine and public health as well as those who are at the foundational stage of their career in teaching as well as research.

Hardcover. Condition: New. The book discusses and debates theoretical, conceptual, and empirical issues that have arisen from studies of the tribals of Northeast India, and by extension, those of India in general. It sheds new light on tribal societies and aimed to produce multidimensional outcomes and prospects for future academic research on various issues concerning tribes of this region. It allowed us to see them in the contexts of socio-political structure, as well as to gain an understanding of how far they have retained or changed their identity and socio-cultural system. This collection is a sincere attempt to critically examine the conceptual process of tribal formation, which is fraught with a cross-current of ideas.It is expected to underscore the emerging realities, issues, and challenges that tribes face in various contexts in contemporary Northeast India. The book will be of interest to researchers and students of anthropology, sociology, political science, economics, tribal studies, social work, and other related fields of study in addition to tribal activists and policymakers.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Cultural heritage encompasses the inherited traditions, values, customs, and expressions that have been transmitted across generations and continue to be upheld by a society as part of its collective identity. It covers both tangible elements - such as artifacts, architecture, clothing, and cuisine - and intangible aspects like language, rituals, beliefs, and values. However, culture is not static; it evolves continually in response to historical events, social change, and external influences. Understanding a society's culture is essential for comprehending its worldview, traditions, and social organization, making cultural knowledge a crucial tool for meaningful engagement and scholarly inquiry. This volume, The Cultural Heritage of Mizoram, explores the diverse elements of the evolving cultural landscape of the Mizos. It begins with a theoretical framing of culture and identity, examining how colonialism, Christianity, capitalism, and political movements have reshaped tribal and regional cultures in Mizoram and the wider Northeast. Key themes such as moral values, naming practices, marriage customs, burial rituals, gender roles, hunting traditions, foodways, and festivals are examined to uncover layers of meaning within everyday cultural life. Through these interdisciplinary and historically grounded studies, the volume presents a nuanced account of how Mizo culture has been shaped by movement, contact, change, and continuity. The collection invites readers to engage with the rich cultural mosaic of Mizoram - both as a repository of heritage and as a living, dynamic process of identity formation in a rapidly transforming world.
