Book excerpt: In the foothills of the mighty Himalayas, there is a region popularly known as Dooars in northern West Bengal. Apart from its magnificent scenic beauty, the soil of Dooars still nurtures Tea—a world-famous beverage. The tea industry of Dooars is an excellent source of livelihood for many common people. Unfortunately, for over a decade, the tea industry there has been suffocated and encircled by many constraints. The book talks about five such dilemmas narrated through five separate short stories. Each of the characters is either from the working class or those who are closely associated with the tea garden. It gives a glimpse of their day-to-day struggle, individual aspirations, addiction, anxiety, changes in behaviour due to circumstances, mass exploitation, patience and depression. It deals with the social stigma that strongly exists in tea gardens and man-made problems. As most of the gardens are in remote areas and the scope of mixing with garden dwellers is missing, many things are not accessible and somewhat intangible to outsiders. The book provides a new perspective and fresh ideas about how life is in the tea gardens.

Download or read book Tribes Education and Gender Question written by Sanjay K. Roy and published by Northern Book Centre. This book was released on 2005 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite 58 years experimentation with the policy of protective discrimination and planned development a large majority of the 80.2 million tribal people languish in abject poverty, landlessness, powerlessness, illiteracy and malnutrition. Being caught in the hangover of the strong patriarchic tradition the women of nearly 700 marginalized tribal communities find themselves highly exploited, subjugated and voiceless. The present book, first of its kind on tribes living in northern districts of West Bengal (popularly known as North Bengal), explores the areas of subjugation of tribal life and particularly that of the tribal women and analytically presents the case of tribal women in a tea garden locale in the Dooars region of Jalpaiguri district. The focus of the study has been education, i.e. how the tribes in general and tribal women in particular are doing in the field of education. The field of education is chosen because it is generally considered the most important force of empowerment, enlightenment and social transformation and because it provides us with a field to explore the areas of gender discrimination subsumed in tribal patriarchy. The book has approached the problem of tribal education and the gender question in education against the backdrop of the dialectics of dominant-subordinate relationship between the state and the dominant society on the one hand and the marginalized tribes on the other. The uniqueness of the book lies in its critical approach to the state-sponsored development strategies and its emphasis on a ‘cultural approach’ for a better understanding of the problem and for working out alternative development strategies for improving the educational status of the tribal communities. Sanjay K. Roy, Reader, Department of Sociology, North Bengal University, West Bengal, had his Ph. D. from Delhi School of Economics, Delhi University, and pursued post-Doctoral research at the University of Sussex (UK) and University of Wollongong (Australia).

Download or read book Unfolding Crisis in Assam s Tea Plantations written by Deepak K. Mishra and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-21 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the Indian economy integrates into global circuits of production, exchange and accumulation, the burdens of adjustment are shared unequally by different sectors, classes and regions. This study unravels the livelihood strategies and living conditions of labour in the tea gardens of Assam. The tea sector has been undergoing a crisis since the 1990s, with stagnant production, decline in exports, and closures of many tea gardens leading to large-scale retrenchments in the labour force. Based on a detailed analysis of secondary data and primary field research, the study examines the extent, types and implications of inter-generational occupational mobility (or immobility) among tea garden labourers in Assam. In the process, it reflects on how even a sector that had brought capital and labour from outside and contributed significantly to the country’s export earnings failed to create dynamic growth linkages within the local economy. The experience of the labour force in the Assam tea sector, the authors argue, is important for making sense not only of the development dynamics of the region, but of the contradictory ways in which forces of globalisation and neo-liberal reforms have been reshaping the worlds of labourers in the margins. The book will be of interest to students and scholars of labour studies, development studies, management studies, and studies of north-east India, as well as to policy-makers and those in the tea industry.
