The Criminal Tribes in India

The Criminal Tribes in India

₹700.00Price

The Criminal Tribes in India examines the communities designated as "criminal tribes" under the British colonial Criminal Tribes Act of 1871 and its successive amendments. The book analyses the social, economic, and political mechanisms through which colonial authorities criminalized entire communities, stripping them of civil rights and subjecting them to surveillance, forced settlement, and labour. Drawing on administrative records and ethnographic accounts, it offers a critical historical perspective on one of the most controversial dimensions of British colonial governance in India, with lasting relevance to debates on caste, marginalization, and justice.
