This book is a thematic history of the communist movement in Kerala, the first major region (in terms of population) in the world to democratically elect a communist government. It analyzes the nature of the transformation brought about by the communist movement in Kerala, and what its implications could be for other postcolonial societies. The volume engages with the key theoretical concepts in postcolonial theory and Subaltern Studies, and contributes to the debate between Marxism and postcolonial theory, especially its recent articulations. The volume presents a fresh empirical engagement with theoretical critiques of Subaltern Studies and postcolonial theory, in the context of their decades-long scholarship in India. It discusses important thematic moments in Kerala’s communist history which include — the processes by which it established its hegemony, its cultural interventions, the institution of land reforms and workers’ rights, and the democratic decentralization project, and, ultimately, communism’s incomplete national-popular and its massive failures with regard to the caste question. A significant contribution to scholarship on democracy and modernity in the Global South, this volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of politics, specifically political theory, democracy and political participation, political sociology, development studies, postcolonial theory, Subaltern Studies, Global South Studies, and South Asia Studies.

Children's Lifeworlds examines how working children face the challenge of having to combine work with school in Kerala. Moving beyond the usual concern with child labour and welfare to a critical assessment of the daily work routine of children, this book questions how class and kinship, gender and household organization, state ideology and education influence and conceal the lives of children in developing countries. Presenting an extraordinarily sympathetic and detailed case study of boys' and girls' work routine in a south Indian village, this book shows children creating the visibility of their work. The combination of personal experience, quantitative data and in-depth anthropological methods, sheds light on the world of those who, though they hold the future, have been left in the dark.

Pampa Grande, the largest and most powerful city of the Mochica (Moche) culture on the north coast of Peru, was built, inhabited, and abandoned during the period A.D. 550-700. It is extremely important archaeologically as one of the few pre-Hispanic cities in South America for which there are enough reliable data to reconstruct a model of pre-Hispanic urbanism. This book presents a "biography" of Pampa Grande that offers a reconstruction not only of the site itself but also of the sociocultural and economic environment in which it was built and abandoned. Izumi Shimada argues that Pampa Grande was established rapidly and without outside influence at a strategic position at the neck of the Lambayeque Valley that gave it control over intervalley canals and their agricultural potential and allowed it to gain political dominance over local populations. Study of the site itself leads him to posit a large resident population made up of transplanted Mochica and local non-Mochica groups with a social hierarchy of at least three tiers.

Affirmative Action, Commonly Alluded To As Reservation, Is One Of The Few Policy Instrumentalities Provided In The Indian Constitution To Peck A New Socio-Political Order Based On Equality And Justice. On The One Side, The Policy Seeks To Compensate For The Unprecedented Discrimination Heaped On The Marginalized Sections Of The Society, And On The Other Side To Empower And Integrate These People With The Mainstream Society, In A Sense To Oversee Their Transformation From The Status Of Subjects Under Ancient Regimen To That Of Citizens In A Modern Democratic Polity.This Book Traces With Brilliant Analytical Clarity The Impact And Consequences Of Reservation On The Scheduled Caste In Kerala.. What Is The Degree And Extent Of Their Social Mobility? Have These People Achieved Social Acceptance And Integrated With The Larger Society? Is There A Caste Differential In Mobility Among Them? What Is The Role Of Elected Sc Representatives In The Decision Making Process? What Is The Extent Of Their Political Mobility?These Are Some Of The Specific Issues Addressed In The Book. And This Makes It An Essential Reading For Those Who Are Interested In Understanding The Implication And Impact Of Reservation And, In A Sense, The Working Of The Indian Constitution For The Last Half A Century.
