As a scholar from the Adi community, his extensive lifework at the Arunachal Institute of Tribal Studies (AITS) brought an authoritative, insider perspective to documenting oral literatures, traditional belief networks, and linguistic shifts. Co-editor Prof. M. C. Behera is a highly respected expert in tribal economics and rural development, with over sixteen edited volumes detailing how market expansion interacts with customary agrarian systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eThe editors' analytical approach is systematically thorough, collaborative, and policy-driven. They avoid romanticizing indigenous lifestyles as static relics of the past, focusing instead on the complex friction points between tradition and modern state-led development. The prose runs at a high academic level, utilizing continuous, deeply contextualized paragraphs rather than fragmented bulleted lists to link abstract sociological terms to grassroots realities like community forest rights, shifting cultivation (\u003ci data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"518\"\u003ejhum\u003c\/i\u003e), and regional tourism. By balancing deep respect for customary self-governing bodies (such as the Adi \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"626\"\u003eKebang\u003c\/i\u003e) with an objective view of modern economic changes, this book serves as an indispensable reference standard for university libraries, policy analysts, NGO directors, and administrative bureaus worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mittal Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52039591919914,"sku":"VASY-8183242154","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/1218\/4618\/files\/8183242154__56642_540x_6a33791c-5ad2-44b6-984f-5956bb5e30ea.webp?v=1783163567","url":"https:\/\/crazyshelf.com\/products\/tribal-studies-by-tamo-mibang-and-m-c-behera","provider":"Crazyshelf.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
