Book Synopsis Village Life in South India by : Alan R. Beals
Download or read book Village Life in South India written by Alan R. Beals and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The traditional South Indian village pictures the entire universe as an entity in which all living things and human beings play a necessary and effective role. The stability of this worldview is based on a close relationship among human beings, grain crops, and cattle, which has permitted the continuous exploitation of agricultural lands over several centuries. Taken as a whole, the life of South Indian villagers represents a subtle and complicated adaptation to complex and variable environmental circumstances. It now faces the challenge of adjusting to modernization.After a fascinating description of the traditional South Indian worldview, Alan R. Beals describes the settlement patterns and social structures that characterize village life, the agricultural technology and ecology, and the techniques of population regulation that have traditionally operated to maintain appropriate man-to-land ratios. He then explains the relationships among villages, including marriage and economic exchanges, and the omnipresent influence of hierarchies of caste and social ranking.Over the past 2,000 years, South Indian civilization has undergone constant change and modification. Empires have risen and fallen, famine and plague have swept the land, and cities have been built and forgotten. But through all these years of change, the traditional South Indian village has maintained its basic character, adjusting to a variety of environments and countless conquests, yet always adhering to a single basic pattern of life. Village Life in South India, originally published in 1974, provides the reader not only with a still-valid description of a particular and distinctive way of life, but also with an explanation of how life is explained in ecological theory.

Book Synopsis Invisible Barriers by : Marion den Uyl
Download or read book Invisible Barriers written by Marion den Uyl and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Kerala in Southern India the caste system has been legally abolished, but untouchability lives on. Campaigns fought in recent years for social equality resulted in land reforms and new labour laws. The relationships between castes, and between land owners and landless labourers changed - and so too did, unintentionally, the relations between men and women. As women lost many of their rights, their standing in society diminished considerably. In this book, the stories told by outcaste-women in a village in southern Kerala describe the extent of these changes. Anthropologist Marion den Uyl was able to record these stories in the best tradition of oral anthropology. The women describe how they see their lives, their circumstances and their future. The research distinguishes itself from the viricentrist approach characterizing most anthropological research. Invisible Barriers is not about power and powerlessness, nor is it solely about the economic position of women - typically subjects of masculine research. Marion den Uyl has an eye for the softer powers shaping the lives of women: sexuality, motherhood and self-image. For students and researchers of gender, poverty, women, cultural anthropology and Asian politics.
