Ethnographic Atlas of Indian Tribes
Author: Prakash Chandra Mehta
Publisher: Discovery Publishing House
ISBN: 9788171418527
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
The tribals contribute a share of about eight per cent population of the country s population and spread over about 1/5 part of the country s land with 500 different tribal groups having special cultural traits and identity. Keeping in view the importance of ethnography of every tribal group, there is a gap in literature. This was a voluminous work, so I have decided to work on major tribal groups residing in different parts of the country.

The Poison in the Gift
Author: Gloria Goodwin Raheja
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226707280
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
The Poison in the Gift is a detailed ethnography of gift-giving in a North Indian village that powerfully demonstrates a new theoretical interpretation of caste. Introducing the concept of ritual centrality, Raheja shows that the position of the dominant landholding caste in the village is grounded in a central-peripheral configuration of castes rather than a hierarchical ordering. She advances a view of caste as semiotically constituted of contextually shifting sets of meanings, rather than one overarching ideological feature. This new understanding undermines the controversial interpretation advanced by Louis Dumont in his 1966 book, Homo Hierarchicus, in which he proposed a disjunction between the ideology of hierarchy based on the "purity" of the Brahman priest and the "temporal power" of the dominant caste or the king.
