Development and Tribes : Contemporary Issues & Challenges

Tribal development has been a critical area of enquiry across a number of disciplines.  One of the broad research interests stands out being a critique of tribal development that univocally interrogates the approach, perspective, strategy adopted in national development agenda for the tribes. The present volume examines   tribal development in India as enwrapped by national development agenda drawing on the analysis of papers included in it. Essentially, the papers with their respective analytical sophistication, theoretical soundness and empirical grounding bring in deeper critical insights into an understanding of tribal development within macro framework of national development perspective that reflects 'not tribe-specific' development, rather a development around the tribes.Precisely, the volume offers theoretical and empirical input necessary to consider the entire intellectual enterprise of understanding tribal development in shifting development paradigms of national development discourse. Undoubtedly, the volume will be useful to those interested in equitable, participatory, inclusive and sustainable tribal development from human rights perspective.
