₹5,000.00

Explore the complex social boundaries and ethnic categorisation of the Garo people in Bangladesh with this seminal anthropological work. E. Bal expertly refutes static definitions of ‘tribe’ and ‘adivasis’, showing how contemporary ethnic communities are fluid and historically constructed. Through a dual historical-anthropological approach, the book illuminates the self-perceptions and external representations of minority groups in South Asia. An indispensable read for students and scholars of anthropology, sociology, and South Asian studies interested in indigenous identity.
