This book interrogates the idea of equity in the context of India’s Northeast region. The region comprises of diverse ethnicities heralding different socio-political and historical contexts. The present volume attempts to bring to the fore, the ever-widening socio-economic gap between dominant and marginalized groups and the challenges of traversing towards equity and social justice in this context.The book looks at the socio-economic disparity and exploitation in the region, conspicuous in the form of poor governance, ethnic violence and a sense of marginalisation and disillusionment. Based on case studies and research of different states and communities in the Northeast, the volume discusses the complex and unique socio-economic challenges of the people in the region. It analyses the issues of representation, identity and ethnic dominance, affirmative action, food security, sustainability, access to education, territorial conflicts, ineffective governance, among others. The book offers insights and perspectives into concepts such as equity, justice, fairness and discrimination by juxtaposing the booming global economic order which depicts the extreme levels of deprivation especially among those belonging to the disadvantaged communities. This volume will be of interest to scholars and researchers of sociology, social anthropology, development studies, politics, law and governance, and South Asia studies.

The book takes a close look into the definitions and categorizations of marginality, inequality, agency and location in society. It examines the systems of marginalization and othering by exploring perspectives of socially excluded people and communities in Northeast India.The context of Northeast India provides unique perspectives on the debates around marginality due to the existence of multi-ethnic cultures in the region and since its prolonged colonial historical experience alienated it from the rest of India. This volume focuses on the issues pertaining to tribe, caste, gender identity, religion, and physical disability in the region. It also looks at the roles which institutions, education and the media play in the creation and perpetuation of social exclusion and the centre—periphery binary. With essays from eminent scholars and social scientists, the book discusses themes such as citizenship and borders, national and tribal identity, the role of the law, government and policies for countering exclusion and the challenges which socially excluded groups and communities face to gain agency, autonomy and the right to equality.This book will be useful for scholars and researchers of sociology, Northeast India studies, political sociology, development studies, political science, gender studies, and social anthropology.

Whatever be the definition of 'indigenous' vis-a-vis 'indigeneity', and however concensual it might be, both these terms have been inferred, applied and questioned in multifarious ways. The concept indigeneity in Asia has transformed considerably, over a period of time. With the rise in the indigeneity movement and large-scale migration, citizenship within national borders is challenged, and the borders in question are also contested. This book chronicles the discernible strains on the questions of indegeneity, citizenship, identity, and border making in the Northeast India. The issues pertaining to indigeneity, citizenship, and state, are also a reminder of the residues of colonial doings that have had a colossal impact till this day. Through empirical evidence backed by theoretical underpinnings, each essay in the book demonstrates the diversity of approaches that can be used to interrogate the debate on indegeneity, citizenship, the state, and opens the conversation on Northeast India.This book is co-published with Aakar Books. Print edition not for sale in South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Bhutan)

This volume offers a nuanced exploration of Naga society, moving beyond simplistic narratives of tradition versus modernity to reveal the complex processes of negotiation, continuity, and transformation that define contemporary Naga experiences. It emphasises that to understand Northeast India, especially Naga societies, one must engage with its dynamic negotiations of identity, belief, gender and belonging.This collection brings together 15 essays that explore the cultural, spiritual, political and literary landscapes of the Naga people and their neighbours, demonstrating how these realms continuously interact, overlap and reshape one another in daily life. From borderland solidarities and Christian–shamanic syncretism to the gendered meanings of folktales, material objects and marriage rites, the chapters reveal how tradition and transformation are deeply intertwined. Drawing from ethnography, oral histories, literary analysis and empirical research, the contributors offer rich insights into a region often overlooked in mainstream Indian and global scholarship. Whether examining the symbolic power of the were-tiger in fiction, the role of Satyagraha in Ao Naga ethics or the health challenges of Angami elders, this book refuses simplistic binaries and challenges fixed perceptions of indigenous existence.The book is an essential read for scholars of Indigenous studies, religion, gender, borderlands and postcolonial South Asia and also for anyone seeking to understand the complexity and vitality of life in Northeast India today. It will be of interest to scholars and researchers of psychology, anthropology, sociology, environmental sciences, development studies, law and governance, environmental administration and South Asian studies. It will also be an invaluable and interesting read for those interested in South Asian studies.
