This book engages with notions of self and landscape as manifest in
water, forest and land via historical and current perspectives in
the context of indigenous communities in India. It also brings
processes of identity formation among tribes in Africa and Latin
America into relief. Using interconnected historical moments and
representations of being, becoming and belonging, it situates the
content and complexities of Adivasi self-fashioning in contemporary
times, and discusses constructions of selfhood, diaspora, homeland,
environment and ecology, political structures, state, marginality,
development, alienation and rights. Drawing on a range of
historical sources - from recorded oral traditions and village
histories to contemporary Adivasi self-narratives - the volume will
be of great interest to scholars and researchers of modern Indian
history, sociology and social anthropology, tribal and indigenous
studies and politics.
