Hardcover. Condition: New. Steel Town Adivasis: Industry and Inequality in Eastern India presents an analysis of class formation in the industrial town, Rourkela in the eastern Indian state Odisha, and the ways this process relates to regional ethnicity and caste. This study is based on long-term ethnographic research conducted in the 2000s and oral histories covering the period from the inception of the steel plant, and it focusses on the region's 'tribes', indigenous people or Adivasis who lost their land when the Government of India established a large steel plant in Rourkela in the 1950s. The study explores how the widespread stereotyping of Adivasis as the backward Other of urban-industrial modernity serves upper-caste migrants dominating local society to legitimate the placing of Adivasis at the bottom of the shop floor hierarchy in the steel plant as well as in other local industries emerging around it, and at the fringes of the modern township. It also explores how Adivasis contest their stereotyping, exploitation and dispossession in everyday interactions as well as in political parties, unions, and protest movements. The book further demonstrates how the class polarization that has grown since the 1990s between public-sector steel workers and other workers also cuts through Adivasi communities and families, and how this reflects in different experiences of being Adivasi, and in divergent politics. Steel Town Adivasis reveals that the relationship between class and caste or local notions of hierarchical difference in Rourkela has changed over time and that this dynamism is entangled with historical changes at the wider national and global level. The book will be of interest to anthropologists, sociologists, historians interested in industrial labour and work, in class, caste, Adivasis, ethnicity and their dynamic entanglement, as well as students and activists.…

Hardback. Condition: New. The volume scrutinizes the fundamentally uneven character of industrial production and working class formation by bringing together anthropologists specializing on industrial labour in various locations from South America, Western and Eastern Europe, North Africa, and South Asia. Through their engagement with Leon Trotsky's concept of 'uneven and combined development' the authors unravel the complex relations that connect (and disconnect) labour in their sites of research with workers in other places and other times. As the contributions likewise reveal, the unevenness and combination inherent in industrial developments shape and are at the same time also shaped by the different politics workers in an unequal world pursue, as well as the historical experiences and future expectations of workers that inform these. With the attention the authors pay to the specificities of ethnographic detail as well as to broader regional and global developments the volume demonstrates the value of long-term ethnographic research and is of interest to a wide audience ranging from specialists in the fields of anthropology, history, sociology and development studies to students and activists.…
