Such a rich and old tradition makes this land unique. Most of the cultural phenomena of Kerala are in one way or the other related to the religions that thrive in the region, their customised forms of worship and their special rituals. From depicting native legends, distinctive traditions, historical yarns and mythical tales to providing commentary on social injustices in the form of satirical plays and skits, the cultural art forms and festivities reflect the beliefs and values of the people and, in turn, have moulded their thinking and world view for centuries. Kerala Responsible Tourism Mission welcomes you to experience this cultural diversity of Kerala! 1 2 Magic of Rituals Figuratively speaking, the ritual art forms practised in Kerala are significant artistic points that have shaped the cultural graph of the land. We, the Kerala Responsible Tourism Mission, offer you an opportunity to experience the magic and myths of these ritual arts. 3 Theyyam Retelling ancient myths and fables, Theyyam, the traditional ritual art of North Kerala creates an atmosphere that all should experience at least once in a lifetime.

The Rule of Sanctuary: Security, Nature, and Norms in the Protected Forests of Kerala, South India
The Rule of Sanctuary: Security, Nature, and Norms in the Protected Forests of Kerala, South India Goutam Gajula Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 ©2015 Goutam Gajula All rights reserve ABSTRACT The Rule of Sanctuary: Security, Nature, and Norms in the Protected Forests of Kerala, South India Goutam Gajula The aim of this dissertation is to understand how worries over nature’s degradation, ensuing securitization practices, and emergent norms intersect in environmental protected areas. It concerns the Nilgiri Biosphere in Kerala, South India, and how regimes of nature protection effect the lives of its human inhabitants, the Kurumba, a so-called primitive adivasi tribe. Combining ethnography with archival research, it asserts that the labors and logics of nature protection, present and past, participate in a distinctly liberal problematic of competing securities, manifest in the tension between sovereign discretions and the freedoms of legal rights and market interests. This study makes two overarching claims. First, that during the colonial era, nature’s inessential character allowed for flexibilities in legal interpretation that furthered imperial ambitions. In the silence of the law, norms mediated by colonialist pejoratives operated to satisfy those ambitions, while supplementing the knowledge necessary for government. Second, analysis of recent environmental movements and ecological projects surrounding the Nilgiri Biosphere shows how norms derived from civil society are produced to intervene between security prerogatives and social freedoms. The upshot of these normative practices, I argue, is to depoliticize natures and agencies, while extending and intensifying security’s command of unruly natures.
