Dissecting the Dilemma of Development of Development

A History of Tribal Movements in Twenty-First Century South India
Unfortu­nate incidents, such as Vachati, Muthanga, Silent Valley, Polavaram, and many more have been dealt with as special case studies to showcase the virulent tribal uprisings going on in the southern parts of our country that are in no way less significant than the eastern or central Indian tribal movements.
For decades, the history of tribal movements in south India has re­mained an under-researched and unexplored field of investigation. The states that have been covered in the present book are not even considered having a substantial amount of tribal population and are thereby excluded from the Fifth Schedule Area provisions under the Indian Constitution. The growing discontent among the tribes of south India and their incessant protests have been studied and documented in the present book. Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu – these four states have been dealing with unabated tribal unrest since Independence. The problems, injustices and deprivations caused by industrialization, mining, dam building and other so-called ‘develop­ment’ projects have been analyzed with myriad examples from different tribal communities according to their sufferings and demands.
