Cover of Bengt T. Karlsson & T.B. Subba: Indigeneity In India (PDF)

First published in 2006. Who and what are the ”indigenous people”? The question has become highly contentious in India today, where eighty million peoples belonging to the state category of ”scheduled tribes” are attempting to gain international recognition as indigenous people as a part of struggle for recognition and rights in land and resources. This volume interrogates the politics surrounding the category of peoples in India known as ”tribals” or ”adivasis” and more recently ”indigenous peoples”.
