Colonial and Contemporary Bihar and Jharkhand
Singh, Lata. Pati, Biswamoy.
Colonial and Contemporary Bihar and Jharkhand /Lata Singh. - Delhi : Primus Books , 2014. - viii, 256p. : 24cm.
Since colonial times Bihar and Jharkhand have been the arena of diverse social and political struggles. The formation of the state of Jharkhand, which was earlier a part of Bihar and known as Chotanagpur, has been the result of such movements, some of which have not only created a democratic space in these regions, but also brought about a paradigm shift in Indian politics. This book tries to capture the complexities of some of these diverse movements. The ‘articulation’ of backward castes and tribal protests have been problematized by the emergence of internal hierarchies, differentiations and contestations.
