State, Society, and Tribes revisits the concepts of ‘tribe’ and ‘tribal society’, situating the existing body of knowledge in the context of state policy and socio-cultural developments witnessed in India after independence. An overarching exposition on contemporary research and a nuanced analysis of contestations on a variety of tribal issues, the volume will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of sociology, anthropology, and political science.
