Description
From ancient times many communities have lived in the forest. The forestprovided what ever they needed for their sustenance. But things changed rapidly with the emergences ofthe modern State which staked a claim to the entire forest resources. Like land, theState claimed the ownership of all the forests. The result was that bulk of theforests was converted into reserved land. Thus the original inhabitants of the forest weredeprived of their rights. It is only in recentdecades that policy makers and the government leaders came to seriously thinkabout the interests of the tribals in the forest. Efforts were made to associateforest dwellers in the management of forest through social forestry and jointforest management. However, the results achieved in this field were not commensurate tothe expenditure involved. Man, Forest And The State In Middle Indiaexamines the impact of the state policy on tribal economy and culturalheritage in three States in middle India, viz, Orissa, Jharkhand and MadhyaPradesh (including Chattisgarh). It seeks tohighlight forest as a source of livelihood for the tribals, the role ofnontimber of forest produce in tribal economy, the relationship between tribalculture and heritage with the forest. Community participation through socialforestry and joint forest mnagement and the shortcomings of planning in thisregard have also been brought out. The important role played by women in thissector has been highlighted. Towards the end of the book a vision for the futurein regard to the interface between people, forest and the government has beenconceived.
