Mapping out fertility in South India: methodology and resultsi Sébastien Oliveau – UMR Géographie-cités [email protected] Recent progress made in Computer Aided Cartography (CAC) and in the Geographic Information System (GIS), supported by the power of computers, today warrants a consideration of the situation in space of statistical units and of their environment. Geographic databasesii containing several tens of thousands of units with which more than one hundred variables are linked can now be created. It therefore becomes possible – and necessary – to envision social change in India in its spatial dimension, and a study of fertility in South India will provide us with an eloquent example. In effect, the analytical cartographyiii of data concerning 70 000 villages comprising the five states and the union territory in the South calls for a new perception of fertility, freed of the a priori divisions constituting the administrative grid of taluks and districts.

  • The Tribes of Palakkad, Kerala a Sociolinguistic Profile
    DigitalResources Electronic Survey Report 2015-028 The Tribes of Palakkad, Kerala A Sociolinguistic Profile Compiled by Bijumon Varghese The Tribes of Palakkad, Kerala A Sociolinguistic Profile Compiled by Bijumon Varghese SIL International® 2015 SIL Electronic Survey Report 2015-028, December 2015 © 2015 SIL International® All rights reserved Abstract This sociolinguistic survey of selected Scheduled Tribes in the Palakkad district of Kerala was sponsored and carried out under the auspices of the Indian Institute for Cross-Cultural Communication (IICCC), which is interested in sociolinguistic research and advocating mother tongue literature and literacy among minority people groups. The project started in December 2002 and fieldwork was finished by the end of March 2003. The report was written in August 2004. Researchers in addition to the author included Bijumon Varghese and Jose P. Mathew. This report tells about the unique social and linguistic features exhibited by the different tribes found in the Palakkad district. The broad purposes of this project were to investigate five areas: (1) investigate the speech varieties currently spoken among the tribes of Palakkad and their relationship with the languages of wider communication, Malayalam [mal], and neighbouring state language, Tamil [tam]; (2) assess the degree of variation within each speech variety of the Palakkad district; (3) evaluate the extent of bilingualism among minority language communities in Kerala’s state language, Malayalam; (4) investigate the patterns of language use, attitudes, and vitality; and (5) find out what materials are available about the tribal groups of the Palakkad district. The primary tribal languages observed were Irula [iru], Muduga [udg], Attapady Kurumba [pkr], Malasar [ymr], Mala Malasar [ima], Kadar [kej], and Eravallan [era].
