This book addresses some important issues concerning the tribals in India. Presenting the meanings of freedom from the tribal perspective, it records their struggles for freedom, and highlights the emergence of consciousness in Adivasi writings. It further extends discussion on the problematic of tribal identity, the problem of language identity in tribal areas, the place of women in Adivasi culture and literature, and the problems of women-labourers in mining as well as tribal areas. The book will be of great use for policy makers, scholars and activists.
