The Adivasi Question: Issues of Land, Forest and Livelihood - Softcover
1. This book is part of the series Readings on the Economy, Polity and Society. 2. Depletion and destruction of forests have eroded the already fragile survival base of adivasis across the country. 3. Deprived of their traditional livelihoods, an alarmingly large number of adivasis have been displaced to make way for development projects. 4. Many have been forced to migrate to other rural areas, the urban fringes or cities in search of work, leading to further alienation. 5. The articles, drawn from writings of almost four decades, discuss questions of community rights and ownership, management of forests, the state s rehabilitation policies, and the Forest Rights Act and its implications. 6. It presents diverse perspectives in the form of case studies specific to different regions and provides valuable analytical insights.
