Description

Book Synopsis
Through an ethnography of the Dhanka in Jaipur, this book brings you inside an imaginative work of these long-marginalized tribal communities. It shows how they must affirm and refute their tribal status on a range of levels, from domestic interactions to historical representation, by relegating their status to the past.

Trade Review
"We Were Adivasis is a beautifully written book and a compelling read-it should make a significant impact on the established literature about adivasis in India, as well as address affirmative action and inequality issues not just locally, but also globally." (Alpa Shah, London School of Economics)
