Download or read book Mining Displacement and Matriliny in Meghalaya written by Bitopi Dutta and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies how Development-Induced Displacement (DID) radically restructures gender relations in indigenous tribal societies. Through an indepth case study of the Indian state of Meghalaya, one of the few matrilineal societies of the world, it analyses how people cope with conflicts in their perception of self, family, and society brought on by the transition from traditional modes of living to increased urbanisation, and how these experiences are different for men and women. It looks at the ways in which this gendered change is experienced inter-generationally in different contexts of people’s lives, including work and leisure activities. The book also investigates people’s attitudes towards matrilineal structures and their perception of change on matriliny where mining has played a role in building their view of their matrilineal tradition. Drawing on extensive interviews with individuals directly affected by this phenomenon, the book, part of the Transition in Northeastern India series, makes a significant contribution to the study of DID. It will be useful for scholars and researchers of urbanisation, gender studies, Northeast India studies, development studies, minority studies, public policy, political studies, and sociology.

Download or read book Mountain Mist Meghalaya written by Urvesh Bhatt and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2020-10-19 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meghalaya is an untamed paradise with an ultimate fusion of diverse culture, nature's beauty, humble tribes, fascinating folklore & unusual blissful aura. The hypnotic charm of Meghalaya enticed him into its trance. Unaware about the creepy & spine chilling occurrence the protagonist was running into, there was nothing much he could do. But it was just a start of the journey which was about to infuse unanticipated encounters. Changing the definition of travel, he made an unbreakable bond with the people, places and the stimulating folklores of the land. The toffee-nosed peacock, the waiting tortoise, the golden ladder, all became part of his tale. Amidst this, someone special crosses his path unexpectedly, and at the end, he is left befuddled with the game destiny plays. After the successful first book, ‘The Days by the Ganges – Rishikesh’, the authors bring forth their second alchemy with this travelogue. This book decodes the lyrics of Meghalaya, in a manner that the song of the journey is composed by the readers like their own.

Book excerpt: The book is based on the social structure, line of inheritance, succession and the contribution to social and economic growth of different tribes of North East India. Special emphasis is given on Khasi customary Law. Matrilineal kinship is followed in khasi society, but the low number of women in political positions and jobs indicates some pitfalls in their customary law. Under the khasi customary law, there is a unique blend where patriarchal element is also evident with matrilineal system when the authority and influence of the maternal uncle on ancestral property is pivotal than the youngest daughter’s custodial role on it. The book is primarily concerned with matrilineal system of khasi tribe but it also highlights the challenges faced by the system and the ongoing debates over the authority and application of customary laws now-a-days.
