SCENARIO OF TRIBES IN INDIAN HISTORY AN ANALYSIS (English, Paperback, Dr. Ranjeet SIngh Kedarta)

Tribal Indian society is ferment today. It is exposed to the processes and problems of continuity and change in the wake of modernization. Tribal people total Indian population are also in a process of transformation. Tribal society being distinct from other societies in terms of its backwardness and isolation, the process of political development is slow here; this is also true of the pace of change in the social outlook of the tribal’s. The entire responsibility, thus devolves on the shoulders of the new emerging tribal elite, who can encourage political participation and social mobilization of the rural tribal masses and in the process become agents of accelerated pace of social change, economic growth and political development which are to be treated as part and parcel of a living and interactive continuum everywhere in India, more so, in the context of its tribal societies.
