The Language Loss of the Indigenous

The Language Loss of the Indigenous

This volume traces the theme of the loss of language and culture in numerous post-colonial contexts.

The essays here show how the cultures and the imaginative expressions of indigenous communities all over the world are undergoing a phase of rapid depletion. They unravel the indifference of market forces to diversity and that of the states unwilling to protect and safeguard these marginalized communities.

The Call for Recognition Naturalizing Political Norms

The Call for Recognition Naturalizing Political Norms

This book builds a case for how social norms are neither mere conventions nor are they merely anthropological phenomena which are relativistic. In other words it talks about how socio-political norms are built out of our natural social behaviour but at the same time also have objective normative validity. The volume puts forth an alternative model called the recognitional model which can help us address some of the socio-political concerns we face in today’s world. It addresses the problem with a purely legalistic framework of addressing social injustice in that law due its universalistic assumptions regarding human nature tends to glide over the particular differences that might exist between people. This book discusses how we know that in our daily lives we value people not only because that person is a legal human being but also because that person is our father mother our teacher etc. There is a whole network of acts of social respect that we engage in with the other in our social sphere which the legal framework can’t quite capture. This volume sheds light on the political consequence of legal reasoning in that it is formalistic in the sense that legal relations can’t successfully codify the immediate epistemic context from which social identities emerge. An introspective work this book will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of linguistics political philosophy law and human rights and social theory. | The Call for Recognition Naturalizing Political Norms

The Santal Rebellion 1855–1856 The Call of Thakur

The Santal Rebellion 1855–1856 The Call of Thakur

The book presents a new interpretation of the Santal Rebellion the Hul 1855–1856 drawing on the colonial sources as well as Santal memories. It offers a critique of postcolonial approaches that overlook specifically tribal perspectives and see the Hul as a class-based peasant rebellion. The author analyses the Hul and its participants—the Santals and their opponents both the colonial administration and the Bengalis. He also looks at the attempts of the Hul’s leaders Sido and Kạnhu to reform the Santal religion. Offering a new respectful reading of the Hul’s religious legitimation the book argues that changes in Santal religion and ethics were responses to the colonial regime’s new and aggressive economic order. The Hul’s leaders Sido and Kạnhu demanded the introduction of just laws based on the universal principle of equality. This historical approach leads to a call for the inclusion of the voice of tribal and Adivasi minorities when formulating politics for their development in the 21st century.

Decolonising Heritage in South Asia The Global the National and the Transnational

Decolonising Heritage in South Asia The Global the National and the Transnational

This volume cross-examines the stability of heritage as a concept. It interrogates the past which materialises through multi-layered narratives on monuments and other objects that sustain cultural diversity. It seeks to understand how interpretations of “monuments” as “texts” are affected at the local level of experience even as institutions such as UNESCO work to globalise and fix constructs of stable and universal heritage. Shifting away from a largely Eurocentric concept associated with architecture and monumental archaeology this book reassesses how local and regional heritage needs to be balanced with the global and transnational. It argues that material objects and monuments are not static embodiments of culture but are rather a medium through which identity power and society are produced and reproduced. This is especially relevant in South and Southeast Asian contexts where debates over heritage often have local regional and national political implications and consequences. Reevaluating how traditional valuation of monuments and cultural landscapes could help aid sustainability and long-term preservation of the heritage this book will be useful for scholars and researchers of South and Southeast Asian history heritage studies archaeology cultural studies tourism studies and political history as well. | Decolonising Heritage in South Asia The Global the National and the Transnational
