This book discusses two development themes: the
land and housing rights of India`s Adivasi, and
methods for engaging marginalized people in action
research. It focuses on a concrete problem -enclosure and eviction of the Katkari, a primitive
forest tribe, from their rural hamlets on the plains of
Maharashtra. The book traces the evolving
relationship between Adivasi and caste-based
agrarian societies in modern India, and the
transformation of the Katkari into bonded workers in
brick kilns and charcoal operations, serving the
urban and industrial interests of Greater Mumbai.
Using rigorous and participatory methods adapted
from different disciplines and theoretical
perspectives it also recounts Katkari efforts to
exercise their rights and illustrates what it means to
do research `with` people rather than `on` people. The
book will appeal to development practitioners and
graduate students of Sociology, Anthropology,
Development Studies and Tribal Studies.ISBN:9789382264538
