This book was released on 2024-07-03 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India is home to hundreds of tribal communities, each with their own unique cultures, traditions and ways of life. Among these are the Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs), who are identified as being at risk of losing their distinct identities, livelihoods and traditional practices. This book takes an in-depth look at the PVTGs residing in the state of Jharkhand through the analytical lens of anthropology. It consists of untold stories on its indigenous people as a tribute to their reliance, wisdom and unwavering Spirit. Through a chronological exploration, the book aims to understand the pivotal role played in shaping regional identity with political historicity, livelihood practices, indigenous knowledge, dynamic interest with local life and to investigate the indigenous’ contribution. The authors evaluate current policies related to the preservation and empowerment of PVTGs. The book highlights the urgent need to protect and uplift these ancient but vulnerable communities before their irreplaceable cultures are lost forever.

This book was released on 2023-04-02 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Odisha, a land of varied cultural and geographical diversities provides shelter to people of varied socio-demographical backgrounds. Many primitive tribes with diverse needs also reside in the state. Some tribal groups are more disadvantageous in terms of geographical location, food procurement, survival skills and health status and are named as “Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups”. They are spanned over 17 different states and one union territory of India. The state of Odisha provides home to 13 such PVTGs. Most of these tribal groups have indigenous practices regarding treatment of disease posing risk to their survival. In an effort to address these issues, “Jiban Sampark” – Communication for life”, an effort to revamp health and nutrition of the PVTGs is undertaken by All India Institute of Medical Sciences in collaboration with UNICEF.I take immense pleasure to state that through this project, training would be provided to people of different sectors who would have a bearing on improving health and nutrition status of PVTGs. In the days to come, we hope to promote the health status and improvise health indicators in these remote and socially secluded communities through this path-breaking initiative.

Download or read book Image Building among Most Vulnerable Tribal Groups MVTGs of Madhya Pradesh written by Dr. Harendra Pratap Singh Chouhan and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book is an attempt to touch on one of the most neglected and talked aspects of a significant portion of the population (the most vulnerable tribals of MP) and also what can be done to build the image of these tribal groups. One of the authors has done significant research work in the field by visiting the actual places of residence of the tribal groups under study and has extensively interviewed them. As both the authors are from the management stream a new perspective is presented in the book. Till now this was the domain of the sociologists and the anthropologists, but the management perspective will help the readers to view things differently. The book is divided into six chapters. The first chapter titled “Image building and understanding the tribes is an introduction to both the tribes as well as what all comprises image building. This chapter is basically for those readers who are not acquainted with the tribal groups and what is meant by the terminology like most vulnerable groups. The chapter also introduces what image building means. Chapter two is more about the reports and the works done by the other scholars so that the readers know what other scholars view about the present topic and also the authors have developed their research and the findings based on the work of the scholars of the field. Chapters three and four comprise the crux of our work. These two chapters will help the readers to get an understanding of the culture, living styles, and every aspect of the life of these MVTGs. A comparative study will help the readers to know that though all the three groups are from MP still many differences are there among the three groups and the management of their everyday living and image building will be decided based on these differences. Forest, agriculture, migration, education, culture, dance, house structure, tattoo, worship, food, etc. are some of the aspects which are dealt with and all the three groups are compared on these features. Chapter five deals with the image-building aspects with the background of all the marketing concepts required to make the image of these tribes as required and what can be done to enhance the image. For the readers having no background in management, the chapter is such planned that they get an idea about the basic terminology of promotion and image building. Chapter six comprises what we feel as researchers and some of the suggestions from our side based on the four years of exhaustive work we have done. These suggestions can help the MVTGs to get what they want (not using the term “including in mainstream”). So, we conclude that this book can be an effort to start the debate from a very new perspective.

Book excerpt: Shortlisted for the Orwell Prize Shortlisted for the New India Foundation Book Prize Anthropologist Alpa Shah found herself in an active platoon of Naxalites—one of the longest-running guerrilla insurgencies in the world. The only woman, and the only person without a weapon, she walked alongside the militants for seven nights across 150 miles of dense, hilly forests in eastern India. Nightmarch is the riveting story of Shah's journey, grounded in her years of living with India’s tribal people, an eye-opening exploration of the movement’s history and future and a powerful contemplation of how disadvantaged people fight back against unjust systems in today’s world. The Naxalites have fought for a communist society for the past fifty years, caught in a conflict that has so far claimed at least forty thousand lives. Yet surprisingly little is known about these fighters in the West. Framed by the Indian state as a deadly terrorist group, the movement is actually made up of Marxist ideologues and lower-caste and tribal combatants, all of whom seek to overthrow a system that has abused them for decades. In Nightmarch, Shah shares some of their gritty untold stories: here we meet a high-caste leader who spent almost thirty years underground, a young Adivasi foot soldier, and an Adivasi youth who defected. Speaking with them and living for years with villagers in guerrilla strongholds, Shah has sought to understand why some of India’s poor have shunned the world’s largest democracy and taken up arms to fight for a fairer society—and asks whether they might be undermining their own aims. By shining a light on this largely ignored corner of the world, Shah raises important questions about the uncaring advance of capitalism and offers a compelling reflection on dispossession and conflict at the heart of contemporary India.

Download or read book Land Alienation and Politics of Tribal Exploitation in India written by Suratha Kumar Malik and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-15 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores tribal land alienation problems in India and tribal agitation against land encroachment and alienation. It discusses India’s tribal land problem and explains how despite legislation to protect tribal lands, the problem has not been resolved since neither the letter nor the spirit of the law has been implemented. Due to continuous land encroachment and alienation by outsiders, the negligence of the revenue administration and the apathy of the central and state government, the situation concerning tribal land in the country have became precarious. In this context, the book highlights the process of land estrangement among the tribes and the related movements, focusing on the Narayanpatna land movement in the Koraput district of Odisha. It argues that land remains a central issue that is extremely important for tribes as it directly affects their life, livelihood, freedom and development, and that the cultural attachment of tribes and their views regarding the idea of ‘place’ (land) furnishes crucial perspectives in understanding the politics of collective resistance. It also discusses the politicization of group identity and material interest against the outside authority as the basis of the unrest among the tribes, and when the grudges of the people are hardened due to insensitivity and tyranny, the extent of tribal resistance escalates, leading to conflict between the state and its own people. Given its scope, this book is a valuable resource for students and research scholars, as well as for policymakers and anyone interested in Indian democracy and development in general, and tribal problems, issues and politics in particular.

Download or read book Indigenous Peoples Poverty and Development written by Gillette H. Hall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-30 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book that documents poverty systematically for the world's indigenous peoples in developing regions in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The volume compiles results for roughly 85 percent of the world's indigenous peoples. It draws on nationally representative data to compare trends in countries' poverty rates and other social indicators with those for indigenous sub-populations and provides comparable data for a wide range of countries all over the world. It estimates global poverty numbers and analyzes other important development indicators, such as schooling, health, and social protection. Provocatively, the results show a marked difference in results across regions, with rapid poverty reduction among indigenous (and non-indigenous) populations in Asia contrasting with relative stagnation - and in some cases falling back - in Latin America and Africa. Two main factors motivate the book. First, there is a growing concern among poverty analysts worldwide that countries with significant vulnerable populations - such as indigenous peoples - may not meet the Millennium Development Goals, and thus there exists a consequent need for better data tracking conditions among these groups. Second, there is a growing call by indigenous organizations, including the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Peoples, for solid, disaggregated data analyzing the size and causes of the "development gap."
