Resources, Tribes and Development

 
M.C. Behera (Editor) Jumyir Basar (Editor)
Synopsis

The papers in the book deal with the issue of development-induced displacement, throwing light on competing interests and contradicting opinions that are extended when it comes to tribes and their resource perceptions and corporate-induced development projects. Incorporating some empirical findings, the papers by experts examine the link between ecology and economy, delving into resource perception and utilisation that are contested by traditional and commercial users. They cover aspects relating to social justice, reconstruction of livelihood of tribals post-displacement in relation to development projects, the link between globalisation and development, tribal customary laws and landowning practices, and land reforms and record management. Referring to relevant Acts, they throw light on the situation concerning tribes in some states like Gujarat, Odisha and Nagaland.
