This project has had a significant impact on Adivasi lives, roles, practices, and autonomy, leading to increased dependence on capital, markets, unsustainable farming practices, and urban jobs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn a global scale, Indigenous communities face a legacy of environmental dispossession due to economic development that undermines their mental and physical well-being and disrupts their land-based way of life. The history of appropriation, dispossession, and accumulation is both historical and contemporary. The stories of Adivasi people vividly illustrate the horrors of systematic marginalization, particularly the reduced autonomy and economic sufficiency experienced by Adivasi women.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite decades of resistance, protests, counter-struggles, marches, and direct action, these efforts have not been successful in overturning bureaucratic regressions or the structural and direct violence faced by marginalized or resettled Adivasi people. However, they have enabled networks of solidarity to emerge, advocating for the rights and access of these communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is important to note that this book does not seek to attribute state or corporate power to the displacement of Adivasi peoples. Instead, it validates Adivasi agency and autonomy, highlighting their resilience and determination in the face of adversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 367g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030939007\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sutapa Chattopadhyay","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44103190577402,"sku":"9783030939007","price":46.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1662160763833_book.jpg?v=1662413835","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/politics-of-development-and-forced-mobility-gender-indigeneity-ecology-9783030939007","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
