Description
With eight sister states, each with very unique identities in terms of ethnicity, food, language, culture, the whole of the northeast has been and still remains a politically vital and strategically vulnerable region of India. Increasingly, subsequent to interactions with non-tribal communities and excess immigration, indigenous communities have been facing threats and are close to social exclusion in the country. Due to this threat of exclusion, the northeast region has, over the years, witnessed emergence of unemployment, poverty and extremist organizations challenging the sovereignty, integrity and the development of the region. This selected volume is a greater collection of 13 peer reviewed articles to identify and address the issues of Ethnicity, Culture and Development of the people of North East India in proper perspective. The present book endeavors to find the actual issues of ethnicity, culture and development of the region in development perspectives and reckoned that the book will provide an avenue for discussion and new research directions.
