Adivasis Today Are Caught Between An Aggressive And Seemingly Benevolent Version Of Capitalism, Although The Lines Between The Two Have Increasingly Blurred. British India Created Formal Property Rights To Replace Customary Ones; Neoliberal India Chased Them Off Their Land In Pursuit Of Development, Dubbed Them Terrorists And Unleashed The ArmyS Might Against Them. Adivasis Have Only Seemed To Appear In Recorded History When Resisting The State, And Their Consciousness Has Been Reduced To This Identity Along With Their Politics. The Story Of Adivasi Women Is Far More Harrowing. Following Gayatri SpivakS Deconstructive Approach, Sanatan Bhowal Draws Upon Some Leading Thinkers Of Our TimeBadiou, Levinas, Foucault, Deleuze, Lacan And ZizekTo Address SpivakS Question: Can The Subaltern Speak? Using This Heterogeneous Assemblage Of Ideas As A BackdropIn Which BadiouS Philosophy Of Truth, Resistance And Responsibility For The Other Figure ProminentlyHe Focuses On DeviS Ethical Representation Of The AdivasiS She Has Loved, Lived With And Whose Cause She Has Passionately Espoused Lifelong. He Also Underlines The Need To Unthink Conventional Discourses Before Any Genuine Understanding Of Tribal Consciousness Can Be Arrived At.
