ABOUT THE BOOK
The general backwardness of the tribal women and other issues like violence, crime & atrocities against tribal women are seems to be some of the deterministic obstacles of empowerment of tribal women. The educational backwardness and the resultant capability deprivation further worsen the empowerment of tribal women. The powerlessness
resulting from the capability deprivation and lack of freedom of choice are the significant stimulants of human rights violation of tribal women. It further leads to the denial of many of the entitlements that are normally available to members the society. This book includes 25 research papers which are deliberating different dimensions of these issues exclusively faced by the tribal women in South India. Hope this book will benefit the scholars and policy makers involved in the issues of tribal women.
