The Anthropological Survey of India launched the People of India project on 2nd October 1985 to generate an anthropological profile of all communities of India, the impact on them of change and the development process, and the links that bring them together. As part of this all-India project the ethnographic survey of all the communities of Mizoram was taken up in collaboration with local scholars. Under the People of India project, these seventeen communities were studied for the first time in their cultural, biological and linguistic dimensions. The results of the study were discussed at the workshops held at the North-Eastern Regional Centre in Shillong. An interesting feature of Mizoram has been the consolidation of the Mizo people as a political and territorial entity, and the emergence of Mizoram as a state. The Mizo-isation of the tribes or sub-tribes within Mizoram is a continuous process. Another parallel process is the emergence of the transnational concept of the Mizo people, the Zomi encompassing the Kuki-Chin peoples living across the international border. The Baptist Mission in Mizoram, which recently celebrated the hundred years of its presence, has played a major role in the westernization and modernization of the Mizos, who are now among the most literate people in the country. Other interesting feature of the Mizoram culture are clan endogamy, the decline of jhum and the mergence of settled cultivation, a vibrant cottage industry, linguistic heterogeneity, and the revival of many elements of traditional culture. Dr K. S. Singh retired as Director General of the Anthropological Survey of India. Dr B. B Goswami is former Joint Director, Anthropological Survey of India, North-Eastern Regional Centre, Shillong. Dr C. Nunthrs is Reader in Sociology, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong. Dr. N. N. Sengupta is the state co-ordinator for Mizoram, and Assistant Keeper, North-Eastern Regional Centre Shillong.

Pangkhua is an endangered Tibeto-Burman language, spoken by about 2000 people in Chittagong Hill Tracts, Bangladesh. This volume provides a comprehensive grammatical description of the language, based on more than a year of original fieldwork in a Pangkhua village. Taking a broadly functional typological perspective, Zahid Akter analyzes Pangkhua phonology, morphology, syntax, and discourse. Some of the typologically notable characteristics of Pangkhua include presence of a relatively large number of sesquisyllabic words, an elaborate person marking on verbs, absence of a clausal conjunctive, and lack of a distinct word class of adjectives. As the first comprehensive description of the language, this grammar contributes to comparative Tibeto-Burman linguistics more broadly by laying the groundwork for further studies locating Pangkhua in its genealogical, areal, and typological contexts. It will also serve as an invaluable resource for the maintenance and revitalization of Pangkhua language and culture.

Located in the domain of cultural politics, the book with rich ethnographical data from Mizoram, a lesser known and understood state, brings the community, state and culture to centre-stage, along with family and stratification of the sociological discourse in education. The book argues for a re-look at school education in Mizoram, besides providing critical insights into the North East region as a whole. It also points to the dilemmas of development in that region and suggests possible ways out of the impasse. Marking a significant departure from conventional thinking on education as 'human capital' as reflected in North-East Vision: 2020, the book strongly advocates the need for critical pedagogies based on learning from conflict; inculcating the values of tolerance and compassion as a precursor to peace; reconceptualising `development, not merely as 'economic' but as indicator of national happiness and valuing lives equally besides respect for traditional institutions, thus marking a break from the much resented paternalism that underpins all state interventions in education. One of the first studies of its kind regarding experience and practice of education, the book makes an important contribution to the role that education can play to usher in peace and promote respect for differences.

Routledge Readings on Security and Governance in Northeastern India: Resource Conflicts, Militarisation and Development Challenges presents some of the finest essays on a region that stretches across the Northeastern Himalaya, eight Indian States and many tribal and non-tribal peoples. With a lucid Introduction, this and its companion volume, Routledge Readings on Colonial to Contemporary Northeastern India offer a compelling look into the society, polity, contemporary security and developmental issues in northeast India. It covers several critical themes and unravels complexities fraught by the unique biogeography and socio-political history of the region. The fifteen chapters in this multidisciplinary volume, divided into three sections, examine land laws, conflict and resource management and local governance. It discusses the political interplay of ethnicities and resource appropriation in a modernizing, globalizing economy as well as instances of conflicts and violence in highly militarized spaces in the region. It offers an engaged and insightful look into the rural and urban human development contexts in the region from authors who have contributed significantly to the academic and/or policy discourse on the subject. This book will serve as essential reading for students, scholars, policymakers, practitioners of South Asian studies, Northeast India studies, history, development studies, labour studies, sociology, public administration, environmental studies, law and human rights, regional literature, cultural studies, geography, and economics.
