Consortium for Research on Educational Access, Transitions and Equity South Asian Nomads Consortium for Research on Educational Access, Transitions and Equity South Asian Nomads - A Literature Review Anita Sharma CREATE PATHWAYS TO ACCESS Research Monograph No. 58 January 2011 University of Sussex Centre for International Education The Consortium for Educational Access, Transitions and Equity (CREATE) is a Research Programme Consortium supported by the UK Department for International Development (DFID). Its purpose is to undertake research designed to improve access to basic education in developing countries. It seeks to achieve this through generating new knowledge and encouraging its application through effective communication and dissemination to national and international development agencies, national governments, education and development professionals, non-government organisations and other interested stakeholders. Access to basic education lies at the heart of development. Lack of educational access, and securely acquired knowledge and skill, is both a part of the definition of poverty, and a means for its diminution. Sustained access to meaningful learning that has value is critical to long term improvements in productivity, the reduction of inter- generational cycles of poverty, demographic transition, preventive health care, the empowerment of women, and reductions in inequality. The CREATE partners CREATE is developing its research collaboratively with partners in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. The lead partner of CREATE is the Centre for International Education at the University of Sussex.

  • A Historical Transition of Banjara Community in India with Special Reference to South India Nagaveni T
    Research Journal of Recent Sciences _________________________________________________ ISSN 2277-2502 Vol. 4(ISC-2014), 11-15 (2015) Res. J. Recent. Sci. A Historical Transition of Banjara Community in India with Special Reference to South India Nagaveni T. Department of History, Government First Grade College, Kuvempunagar, Mysore-570 023, INDIA Available online at: www.isca.in, www.isca.me Received 13 rd November 2014, revised 9th March 2015, accepted 25 th March 2015 Abstract An incisive insight into the literature on Banjara Community clearly indicates that ample literature has been produced by the Western and Indian scholars. Yet the treatment of the problem is exponential. Deep delve into the process of historical transition of the Banjara Community enables us to focus on various controversial issues and complexities of historical significance. Issues like Semantics, Historicity, Location, Ethnicity, Categorization, Caste-clan, Dichotomy and the community’s identity continued to gravitate the attention of the scholars and researchers alike. Lack of unanimity among the scholars and policy makers on these contentious issues has added perplexity to the puzzle. Ambiguous explanations given by the community historians have further complicated the clear-cut understanding of the process of historical transition. The antiquity of this Banjara Community is traceable to Harappa and Mohenjodaro. Its influence continued to spread and retain its relevance down the centuries to shape and reshape the course of history. There is a speculation about the group of Banjaras who mere concentrated outside India and called as Roma Gypsy, where their social history is not yet clear but proved to be of Indian Origin. This paper however strives to focus on historical transition within the context of India from 13 th Century A.D.

Gujjars form an important ethnic and linguistic group. A country like India is a place to a variety of population with their separate culture, traditions and living styles. India is a home to almost more than half of the world’s tribal population. Gujrat, the state of India, was once called as Gujjar- Rashtra, which indicate the meaning Kingdom of Gujjar’s. From this area Gujjar’s established their kingdom and spread over other parts of the country.In this paper I describe the almost whole review about the literature of Gujjar and Bakerwals . Keyword:- Culture, Nomadic Life, Tribals, Gujari (Gojri), Gujjar Bakarwal tribals. Introduction Various studies have been conducted to discuss and analyze the different dimensions of the tribal life in India. Therefore, available relevant studies have been critically reviewed. Hudson (1922) in his book entitled “The Primitive Culture of India” traced the complex historical evaluation of various tribes of India and Hulton (1941) examined their socio- cultural condition. Ghurye (1943) argued that the tribals were backward caste Hindus. He at that time also held that they should be given equal status like the other Hindus. Majumdar (1944) following Ghurye‟s argument suggested that the cultural identity of tribals should be secured for which he stressed that there should be 'selected integration' of the tribals. Explaining it in detail he further held that only those people should be permitted to enter in this community who have relevance with tribal life.
