  • History from Below a Case Study of Folklore in Tulunadu
    27 HISTORY FROM BELOW A CASE STUDY OF FOLKLORE IN TULUNADU b y N. SHYAM BHAT Introduction - Subaltern Historiography This paper attempts to delineate and examine the uses and limitations of folklore and folk literature in the writing of history through the subaltern paradigm. The subaltern or “history from below” approach had originated in the 1980s in Indian historio­ graphy due to the efforts of Ranajit Guha and others. In the last two decades, the subaltern scholars have contributed immensely to the enrichment of historical writings on South Asia.1 Edward Said has said: “Subaltern studies represents a crossing of boundaries, a smuggling of ideas across lines, a stirring up of intellectual and, as always, political complacence”.2 David Cannadine has described it as “Gettysburg history” - of the people, by the people and for the people.3 It is an attempt to meet the demand for “de-elitisation” of history and write the history of the historyless. Like other historiographical schools in Indian history, the Subaltern school is also indebted to Western scholars and their ideas. They are considerably influenced by the writings of Karl Marx, Antonio Gramsci, A. L. Morton, E. P. Thompson, EricJ. Hobsbawm, Frantz Fanon, George Rude and a host of others.4 The ancient regime in historiography or “from the top down” approach in historical writing is considered obsolete at least from the last quarter of the twentieth century in India. History, as a 1. For a detailed explanation of the meaning and nature of subaltern historiography, see Ranajit Guha (ed.).

  • Expectant Urbanism Time, Space and Rhythm in A
    EXPECTANT URBANISM TIME, SPACE AND RHYTHM IN A SMALLER SOUTH INDIAN CITY by Ian M. Cook Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Professor Daniel Monterescu CEU eTD Collection Professor Vlad Naumescu Budapest, Hungary 2015 Statement I hereby state that the thesis contains no material accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. The thesis contains no materials previously written and/or published by another person, except where appropriate acknowledgment is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Budapest, November, 2015 CEU eTD Collection Abstract Even more intense than India's ongoing urbanisation is the expectancy surrounding it. Freed from exploitative colonial rule and failed 'socialist' development, it is loudly proclaimed that India is having an 'urban awakening' that coincides with its 'unbound' and 'shining' 'arrival to the global stage'. This expectancy is keenly felt in Mangaluru (formerly Mangalore) – a city of around half a million people in coastal south Karnataka – a city framed as small, but with metropolitan ambitions. This dissertation analyses how Mangaluru's culture of expectancy structures and destructures everyday urban life. Starting from a movement and experience based understanding of the urban, and drawing on 18 months ethnographic research amongst housing brokers, moving street vendors and auto rickshaw drivers, the dissertation interrogates the interplay between the city's regularities and irregularities through the analytical lens of rhythm. Expectancy not only engenders violent land grabs, slum clearances and the creation of exclusive residential enclaves, but also myriad individual and collective aspirations in, with, and through the city – future wants for which people engage in often hard routinised labour in the present.

  • Depopulation of Koraga Tribes in South India
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 8, Issue 4 (Mar. - Apr. 2013), PP 01-05 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.Iosrjournals.Org Depopulation of Koraga Tribes in South India Nalinam.M Research Scholar, Department of Applied Economics / Cochin University of Science and Technology,Kerala,India Abstract: The tribals of India constitute about 8.2% of the total population. Even though, tribals are not perceived as untouchable ‘lower caste Hindu’ population by the mainstream upper-caste Hindus, they are marginalized and considered as backward and primitive ‘jati’ or caste with a pariah status (Mitra, 2008). This perception however, did not help the tribals. Whereas, lower caste Hindus enjoyed minimal opportunities to integrate with mainstream society and to share few common custom and traditions, the tribals have been excluded and isolated from the mainstream society (Mitra, 2008). The Koragas are one of the primitive tribes perhaps the poorest among the scheduled tribes in Karnataka and Kerala faced serious problems such as povertyillhealth ,malnutrition, morbidity leading to mortality together with deforestation, exploitation result in depopulation of the particular primitive tribe. Keywords –Ajal,Bhuta worship,Demons- holy,Koragas, Primitive Tribes, I. Introduction The tribals of India constitute about 8.2% of the total population. Majority of Indianpopulation are non- tribals and mainly are followers of Hindu (82.41%) religion Census of India,2001).
