Recent decades have witnessed an efflorescence of identity construction and activism of indigenous peoples throughout the world. In the process a multiplicity of indigenous actors has emerged with new discourses and strategies seeking transformative changes to their inherent rights and representation. In their complex projects of self affirmation to overcome political and economic marginalisation the indigenous peoples are deploying culture as an important resource. No doubt the resultant indigenous activism and the manner in which it is played out vary from country to country. Indigenous Identity and Activism captures the broad contours of the resurgent movements in select countries Australia Brazil Canada and Mexico. Renowned scholars on the subject offer their insightful reflections on the ways in which the activists and the movements have created a space for promoting indigenous cultural reproduction and identity reconstruction. 230 pp.

The Andaman and Nicobar Islands are secluded worlds of enchantment that are bound to overwhelm the traveller by their mysterious aura azure waters pristine beaches and palm fronds. Though they have come a long way since their moments of glory and pathos yet many misconceptions about the place continue to exist. And therein lies the germ of the book which is an attempt to capture the true essence of these islands and portray them with the great felicity they deserve. The text is accompanied by images that interpret and unravel each story and help one navigate through the book which is a product of years of research exploration and compilation of facts. The book's size as well as time frame is colossal. But the Islands are so multi faceted that to fully comprehend their verve one has to view them in their entirety. The book which is absorbing continually captivating and perhaps the next best thing to a visit also helps one better understand the six tribal communities of the islands their origins and ancestry geographic distribution socio economic activities legends beliefs and folktales. Likewise the Island's tragic history reflected in its impressive monuments make you pause and ponder at the pointless destruction of life and liberty whereas the beauty and bounty of its open spaces add to the sensory abundance of being part of the quintessence of nature. 216 pp.
