Against Ecological Romanticism: Verrier Elwin and the Making of an Anti-Modern Tribal Identity

The three essays in this book develop a systematic critique of the romanticized notions of tribal life, identity and ecology that informs so much of today's scholarship as well as the popular perceptions and everyday commonsense relating to these themes.
