In the era of globalization many minority populations are subject
to marginalization and expulsion from their traditional habitats
due to rapid economic restructuring and changing politico-spatial
relations. This book presents an analytical framework for
understanding how mobility is an inherent part of such changes. The
book demonstrates how current neoliberal policies are making people
increasingly on the move - whether voluntarily or forced, and
whether individually, as family, or as whole communities - and how
such mobility is changing the livelihoods of indigenous people,
with particular focus on how these transformations are gendered. It
queries how state policies and cross-border and cross-regional
connections have shaped and redefined the livelihood patterns,
rights and citizenship, identities, and gender relations of
indigenous peoples. It also identifies the dynamic changes that
indigenous men and women are facing, given rapid infrastructure
improvements and commercialization and/or industrialization in
their places of Environment. With a focus on mobility, this
innovative book gives students and researchers in development
studies, gender studies, human geography, anthropology and Asian
studies a more realistic assessment of peoples livelihood choices
under a time of rapid transformation, and the knowledge produced
may add value to present development policies and practices.
