The book sheds light on the worldwide movement of indigenous people in India. It discusses the origin of indigeneity, the applicability of the indigenous identity in the international context, the growing awareness of the indigenous citizens about their rights and the UNO Declarations and ILO initiatives to incorporate the indigenous voices into the global affairs. It focuses on the process of the decolonization of research methodology and paves the way for an indigenous research methodology. The book thoroughly discusses the indigenous literary initiatives, their struggle against exclusion and rejection and their aspirations. The chapters present the institutionalization of indigeneity in India through various means since the inception of colonial rule. It analyses the institutionalized indigeneity either by being inclusive or eliminative through the creation of a tribal state like Jharkhand, indigenous subsistence economic patterns like shifting cultivation and its recent legislation, indigenous film making, literature, education systems, research institutions and funding in its various chapters. The volume focuses on documenting the process of institutionalizing indigeneity in the Indian context with references taken from all the corners of the indigenous peoples’ world. It is a valuable resource for policymakers, law practitioners, development analysts, historians, social science scholars, environmentalists, political scientists, sociologists, and administrators. It is also helpful for those who are researching on tribes and indigenous peoples.
