It delineates how the socially excluded sections were further impoverished by both colonial government policies and the chiefs of the despotic princely states who worked in tandem with the colonizers. In the book, Biswamoy Pati studied several key issues including 'colonial knowledge' systems, the stereotyping of tribals as violent and brutal, and colonial constructions of the 'criminal tribe'. Additionally examined are colonial agrarian settlements, adivasi strategies of resistance, (including uprisings); indigenous systems of health and medicine; the colonial 'medical gaze;' conversion (to Hinduism); fluidities of caste formations in the nineteenth century; the appropriation by princely rulers of adivasi deities and healing methods; the rituals of legitimacy adopted by these rulers; as well as the development of colonial capitalism and urbanization. Also explored are the connections between marginalized groups and the national movement, and the way these inherited problems have remained unresolved after Independence. Drawing upon archival and rare sources, this important book would interest the general reader, besides students of history, social anthropology, political sociology, cultural studies, dalit studies, social exclusion, and the social history of medicine. It would also attract NGOs and planners of public policy. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 198-216) and index. 505 0 $a Invisibility, social exclusion, survival: tribals and the untouchables/dalits in Orissa -- The rhythms of change and devastation: colonial capitalism and the world of the socially excluded, c. 1800-1920 -- The tribals and outcastes hit back: survival as resistance in the nineteenth century -- Health matters: exploring the world of the tribals and outcastes/dalits -- Rituals of legitimacy: caste/hegemony/counter-hegemony, c. 1800-1940 -- Alternative visions: communists and the State People's Movement, Nilgiri 1937-48. 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Tribes $z Odisha $z Odisha $x History. 650 0 $a Dalits $z Odisha $z Odisha $x History. 650 0 $a Marginality, Social $z Odisha $z Odisha $x History. 650 7 $a Dalits. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00887187 650 7 $a Marginality, Social. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01009156 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 650 7 $a Tribes. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01156484 651 0 $a Odisha (India) $x Social conditions $y 19th century. 651 0 $a Odisha (India) $x Social conditions $y 20th century. 651 7 $a India $z Odisha. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01920829 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022825.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AD87BDFA38A911ED914067003BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
