Is the 21st century Che Guevara fighting in the forest belt of
central India? In Tribals Under Siege, Nirmalangshu Mukherji delves
into one of the most intractable but under-reported struggles in
the global south - the battle between the Indian state and Maoist
groups who control large swathes of the countryside.
Mukherji explains the devastating impact on India's tribal
population of both neo-liberalism and armed aggression by the
State, and the armed struggle launched by the Maoists. Unlike many
accounts he takes an honest and unflinching look at the Maoists'
interventions, sometimes criticizing their actions as well as the
contradictions and fallacies made by Maoist theoreticians.
Tribals Under Siege goes beyond analyzing the Maoists purely in
terms of security or military considerations. It focuses on the
Maoists own political philosophy and looks critically at weather
their political project can help to deliver real justice and
liberation for India's rural poor.
