Book Synopsis Progress and Its Impact on the Nagas by : Tezenlo Thong
Download or read book Progress and Its Impact on the Nagas written by Tezenlo Thong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term ’progress’ is a modern Western notion that life is always improving and advancing toward an ideal state. It is a vital modern concept which underlies geographic explorations and scientific and technological inventions as well as the desire to harness nature in order to increase human beings’ ease and comfort. With the advent of Western colonization and to the great detriment of the colonized, the notion of progress began to perniciously and pervasively permeate across cultures. This book details the impact of the notion of progress on the Nagas and their culture. The interaction between the Nagas and the West, beginning with British military conquest and followed by American missionary intrusion, has resulted in the gradual demise of Naga culture. It is almost a cliché to assert that since the colonial contact, the long evolved Naga traditional values are being replaced by Western values. Consequences are still being felt in the lack of sense of direction and confusion among the Nagas today. Just like other Indigenous Peoples, whose history is characterized by traumatic cultural turmoil because of colonial interference, the Nagas have long been engaged in self-shame, self-negation and self-sabotage.

Book Synopsis The Naga Society by : Nohochem Sangtam
Download or read book The Naga Society written by Nohochem Sangtam and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-04-26 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a qualitative researched book about the Cultural Heritage of Sangtam Naga and the impact of Globalization in the Sangtam Society. Culture is the self identity of every individual in the society and each culture has its own beauty and charm. The Northeastern part of India is a land of tribal people having very rich cultural heritage that speaks the facet of the great culture of our country (India). However, very little is known about them by the rest of the world and even in India today. The study of tribal society and culture of the Northeastern states is therefore one of the interesting and challenging tasks. Through the study of any tribal society and culture like Nagas, one can learn many hidden lessons from them. Like many other tribal people of the world, the Naga culture is under threat from many circles because of which their society is now turning to a different phase of development. It is highly regrettable to note the fast disappearance of the beautiful Naga cultural heritage due to influence of the westernization. As its trend continues, there will be hardly anything of the traditional values system and it would be difficult even to remember the past cultural history in future unless they are properly recorded today. Any given culture is subject to change according to change of time. As a sum total of human's effort, they adjust themselves with different incoming socio-economic environment and improve their modes of living. As a group, dynamic culture is adopted, changed and learned. Every culture of the world has its own charms and the Sangtam Culture is one, which is enchanting with its multifarious hue, beauty and richness. However, there is no systematic documentation of the Sangtam Cultural Heritage till today. In addition, the degree of disappearance is found to be very high due to various reasons. All these are discussed in this book.During our forefather's time, the Sangtams maintained the communitarian values among the people in the community. The community shared love, peace, helping, equality, unity and co-operation etc. But with the coming of western education, modernization, science and technology which mould the society not only in educating but in western tradition, lifestyle, dress code, mass media, easy and comfort life. Which lead the community of Sangtam Naga to decline the communitarian values in the community. After the coming of Christianity, the Sangtam people could not hold both Christian Cultures along with their traditional values systems any longer. It is true, that the Naga traditional belief and practices could not hold the influences of Christianity. As a result, a total change was brought to their society due to impact of Christianity within a short period of time. The common origin, migration and settlement of the Sangtam Nagas, their history, society, culture and common way of life may attract any sincere researchers, writers and scholars. Their folk tales, folk songs, dance and ceremonies, arts, dress, ornaments, institutions etc, speak about the beautiful Sangtam society and culture. The traditional institutes like Murong (Roshengvi), Vil¬lage Khel, Village elders and use of Logdrum (Singkong) etc., and their philosophical meaning and usage are extremely valu-able. The Britishers and the American Missionaries were amazed to see all these kinds of Naga Culture and society when they entered into Naga territory. The main objective of writing and research about this book is to examine the features of the Sangtam society and culture from ancient to contemporary. For this purpose, the Sangtam culture, society and their value systems was selected as a case study.This beautiful hill people's culture is gradually disappearing. As a result, the youngsters are not concerned much about their own culture and customs. For this purpose, writing of such documentation was considered the need of the hour.

Book Synopsis Nagas in the 21st Century by : Jelle J. P. Wouters
Download or read book Nagas in the 21st Century written by Jelle J. P. Wouters and published by . This book was released on 2023-10-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this book 'Nagas in the 21st Century' is both an adaptation and a (modest) self-proclaimed sequel to Verrier Elwin's (1969) iconic Nagas in the Nineteenth Century. In this anthology, Elwin introduces and brings together a collection of administrative reports, tour diaries, and ethnographic descriptions on Naga tribes, all written in the 19th century. During the colonial era Naga tribes turned into an ethnological hotbed, even a cradle of British social anthropology. Back then, writings on Nagas were many, varied and colourful, and included rituals and religion, political structures and sentiments, taboos and omens, dress and ornaments, funeral customs, head-hunting, monolithic cultures, and so on. This ubiquity of colonial accounts, however, contrasts starkly with the scant material generated during the post-colonial period. In fact, as a corollary of the protracted Indo-Naga conflict scholars working on Nagas now grapple with a decades-wide ethnographic void. This, however, is now starting to change. The contributors to this book take Elwin's anthology, or other colonial sources, as a point of reference, and then link these texts to their own areas of research offering critiques, comparisons, and contrasts as they proceed. A number of Naga tribes are the subject of essays which address various aspects of contemporary Naga society including Naga identity; the Naga 'village republic'; transition in traditional governance; the significance of dreams; the effects of Christian conversion; the Hornbill Festival; a Naga understanding of the head-hunting culture; Naga nationalist politics; festival continuity and change and post-conflict society. Taken together the chapters aim to offer a set of insights and new departures into the study of contemporary Naga society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, author Bendangjungshi brings into dialogue the three leading Northeast Indian tribal theologians - Renthy Keitzar, K. Thanzauva, and Wati Longchar - with the Western theology of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who suffered martyrdom under the Nazi dictatorship in Germany. Negotiating between Bonhoeffer's political approach and Naga cultural identity, Bendangjungshi develops a liberating ecclesiology for Naga Christians, who have been suffering under Indian military occupation since the withdrawal of the British colonizers from Nagaland.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the formation of identity of the Nagas in northeast India in light of the proselytizing efforts by the Americans and the colonization by the British in their search for control over areas inhabited by the Nagas which were perfect for tea plantations. The author explores the westernization of Naga culture, its effect on the Naga Nationalist movement, and how it has led to the formation of modern Naga identity. As a unique indigenous group, the colonization of the Naga people offers fresh insights into our understanding of the processes and effects of colonization in India, as well as its long-term negative effects, particularly with regards to the preservation of traditional beliefs and customs.
