This volume examines the processes and impacts of exclusion on the
Adivasis (tribal or indigenous people) in India and what
repercussions these have for their constitutional rights. The
chapters explore a wide range of issues connected to the idea of
exclusion - land and forest resources, habitats and livelihoods,
health and disease management, gender relations, language and
schooling, water resources, poverty, governance, markets and
technology, and development challenges - through case studies from
different parts of the country. The book argues that any laws
intended to safeguard the fundamental rights of Adivasis must
acknowledge the fact that their diverse and complex identities are
not homogenous, and that uniform laws have failed to address their
systemic marginalisation since the colonial era. This work appeals
for a serious and meaningful political intervention towards tribal
development. The volume will be useful to scholars and researchers
of tribal and Third World studies, sociology and social
anthropology, exclusion studies and development studies.
