The British colonial administrator-ethnographers in India were pioneers who surveyed and carried out expeditions on tribes but often their methods were doubtful. Their survey reports and papers became the source of precious information about such province and at the same time a tool for their continuous development of colonial administration. However by using official machinery and tour for collecting data they bypassed the ethical consideration of research. Their writings in many ways ended up contorting tribes as being synonymous with being backward, uncivilized and barbarous. This study critically analyzes the notion of tribes in India as perceived and studied by anthropologists. It also interrogates the Ontology and Epistemic premises of their Knowledge Production on tribes in India. The paper concludes by discussing the various issues on tribal discourse in India.

This paper presents the development of disposable groups in Poland under the first Piast. Because of social position some individuals were exposed to attacks from their opponents inside the tribe as well as members of other tribes. This resulted in the establishment of a group of “officers” to serve as bodyguards. As time passeds, slow specialization began and disposable groups are created.

The tribal communities are deep-rooted in the forests of southern India who are dependent on forest for their livelihood and striving for alternative sources of income to overcome vulnerability (Bijoy, and Ravi, 2003). Once the social evils in the tribal societies are removed, Mahatma Gandhi believed in the gradual empowerment of this honest and sincere group and their assimilation in the national stream through the generation of able leadership (Bina, 2017). The literacy of tribes is improved, and the tribes embrace the adoption of technology, like access to Direct to Home (DTH) and mobile phones. Technology could be made possible because of Central Government mobile network coverage in the hamlet areas. Tribes are mostly self-educated by nature and their capability to overcome natural calamity is very high. In South India, satanic worship (black magic) is deficient in the tribal community and uses of ayurvedic herbs as well as modern medicines are becoming popular. Lifestyle is gradually being modernized among the new generation, but at the same time, the barter system is continuing in the community. This article presents the critical observations and findings to assess the strengths and focuses on empowering the community through adoption of technology.

By reference to a multi-caste and tribal village in southern Rajasthan the paper examines the degree to which caste and tribal membership impacts on different aspects of migration, e.g. commencement, form, destination, duration, and types of work undertaken. Using a livelihoods approach, supplemented by other perspectives and concentrating on four migration streams (three domestic, one international), data collected over a period of nearly thirty-five years indicates that patterns of migration are far from random. It is argued that the use of official stratification categories in migration surveys can obscure important differences within caste groupings. Short-term circular migration, underestimated in national surveys, is shown to be substantial, especially for the tribal migrants in the village. While position in the social structure differentially affects aspects of migration across the village hierarchy, examples are given of individual migrant agency overcoming structural constraints.

This study is devoted to the transformation of traditional tribe from the Moroccan Atlas. Over the last century it has transformed from a structure based on the idea of nominal kinship into the unit that has become an inherent part of the local administration (as the commune rurale), and then into the political entity modeled on the principles of civil society (NGOs). This process of transformation is considered in the context of the Shafirian monarchy where the power of ruling dynasty is legitimated by its derivation from the Prophet Mohammed and the idea of „the rule of the righteous”. In this context, the role of the National Initiative for Human Development (l’Initiative Nationale pour le Développement Humain, INDH), established in 2003 by Mohammed VI, is discussed. INDH aims to improve the quality of life in areas of underdevelopment and its establishment can be seen as a contemporary manifestation of „the rule of the righteous”. Mohammed’s VI initiative has also provided the impetus for a real „explosion” of local associations for development. In rural areas they became an emanation of modern post-tribal structures which refer to the discourse of civil society.

Газахский регион, расположенный на северо-западе Азербайджана в бассейне рек Агстафа и Кура, был заселен с первых веков нашей эры казахским племенем, входившим в гуннское племенное объединение. Более крупный приток в регион казахского племени, давшего свое название Северо-Западному региону Азербайджана, произошел в XI–XII веках по приглашению грузинских царей, стремившихся освободиться от сельджукской зависимости. В этот период казахское племя, входившее в состав большого Кыпчакского племенного союза, жило в части кубанских степей. Эта территория называлась “Казахия” по имени казахского племени. Из десятков тысяч казахов, прибывших на Южный Кавказ по приглашению грузинских царей, часть поселилась в Грузии и приняла христианство, а другая часть стала жить в нынешних Газахском и Борчалинском регионах. Казахи, поселившиеся на последних территориях, еще со времен раннего средневековья сохраняли свою национальную самобытность, смешиваясь со своими соотечественниками, проживавшими здесь. Газахский регион, с XVI века находившийся в составе государства Сефевидов в статусе уезда, во второй половине XVIII века попал под влияние Картли-Кахетинского царства. В этот период значительная часть казахского племени, не желавшего жить под властью грузинских царей, переселилась в Гянджинское, Карабахское, Иреванское ханства и восточные провинции Турции.

The Gazakh region, located in the basin of Agstafa and Kura rivers in the northwest of Azerbaijan, was inhabited by the Gazakh tribe, which was part of the Hun tribal union from the first centuries of our era. The greater influx of the Gazakh tribe, which gave its name to the north-western region of Azerbaijan, took place in the XI–XII centuries at the invitation of the Georgian tsars who tried to free themselves from Seljuk dependence. During this period, the Gazakh tribe, which was part of the large Kipchak tribal union, lived in a part of the Kuban steppes. That area was called ‘Gazakhia’ after the name of the Gazakh tribe. Tens of thousands of Gazakhs who came to the South Caucasus at the invitation of the Georgian tsars settled in Georgia and converted to Christianity, while the other part began to live in the present-day Gazakh and Borchali regions. The Gazakhs living in the latter areas have preserved their national identity by mixing with their compatriots since the early Middle Ages. The Gazakh region, a part of the Safavid province with the status of a county, came under the influence of the Kartli-Kakheti kingdom in the second half of the XVIII century. During this period, a large part of the Gazakh tribe, who did not want to live under the rule of the Georgian tsars, moved to Ganja, Karabakh, Iravan khanates and the eastern provinces of Turkey.
