Book Synopsis The Bodo of Assam by : Halfdan Siiger
Download or read book The Bodo of Assam written by Halfdan Siiger and published by Nordic Institute of Asian Studies. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bodo (or Boros) are one of the indigenous tribal peoples of Assam. During colonial times they resisted Christianization and in recent decades they have been involved both in interethnic violence and separatist insurgencies. Much research has gone into understanding the Boros and their aspirations but an issue has been that earlier accounts of this once-animist people are meagre and date from the colonial period. The rediscovery and publication of the ethnographic material based on fieldwork carried out by Halfdan Siiger among the Boros in 1949-50 is thus hugely important. Siiger's manuscript is unique, offering detailed descriptions of the social and ritual life of the Boros and new insights into the traditions and myths as they were told in the village he studied before the transformation of religious life in recent decades. Thanks to Siiger's diligent translation and interpretation, the manuscript also preserves a number of ritual formulas and songs in the Boro language. Siiger's manuscript is given even greater relevance by the inclusion of more recent material contributed by the editors and other contemporary scholars. In addition, his original photos are augmented by new photos from the village and by rare images from the collections of the National Museum of Denmark.

Book Synopsis Witch-Hunting Among the Bodos of Assam by : Dina Swargiari
Download or read book Witch-Hunting Among the Bodos of Assam written by Dina Swargiari and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-27 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We, as human beings should not be ignorant of the fact that witch-hunting is still prevalent in the 21st century, among different cultures and societies of the world. It involves the accusation of witchcraft and killing or banishment of the witch. But the belief in witchcraft and the practice of witch-hunting differs on contextual basis. It is observed that the people living in rural areas are the most experienced ones as it exists among them. In India, the recent media reports that the highest number of witch-hunting cases that have been recorded by the police stations of Assam is found to be from the Bodo community. But studies on witch-hunting have remained hitherto less researched areas of study in the state of Assam. Although there are some studies done on the topic, none of them focus on the incidents prevalent among the Bodo community. Therefore, the research is focused on the issue of witch-hunting among the Bodos of Assam and fill up the gap of existing literature.
Book Synopsis Conflict and Reconciliation by : Uddipana Goswami
Download or read book Conflict and Reconciliation written by Uddipana Goswami and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diverging from reductionist studies of Northeast India and its multifarious conflicts, this book presents an exclusive and intricate, empirical and theoretical study of Assam as a conflict zone. It traces the genesis and evolution of the ethnic and nationalistic politics in the state, and explores how this gave birth to nativist and militant movements. It further discusses how the State’s responses seem to have exacerbated rather than mitigated the conflict situation. The author proposes ethnic reconciliation as an effective way out of the current chaos, and finds the key in examining the relations between three communities (Axamiyā, Bodo and Koch) from Bodoland, the most violent region of Assam. She stresses upon the need to redefine ‘Axamiyā’, an issue of much discord in Assam’s ethnic politics since the modern-day formulation of the Axamiyā nation. The book will prove essential to scholars and students of peace and conflict studies, sociology, political science, and history, as also to policy-makers and those interested in Northeast India.
