New Experiences of Heavy Industrialization: A Socio-Legal Context

Abstract

For all indigenous communities, access to land is fundamental, not only in an economic sense but the importance of land is usually reflected in almost all aspects of indigenous culture also. The ongoing process of industrialization is a cause of great concern for the indigenous people. The rehabilitation package do not reflects and mitigates the emotional attachment, social network, social capital and survival value of indigenous people. The nature of distribution of compensation and selection of a family member for the promised job in the industry has led to disintegration among kin members. Their kinship system is instrumental in distributing rights to land, and religion is commonly related both to land and kinship system. The swelling of outside population and the new pattern of livelihood in the sample area have changed the indigenous social and cultural structures. If sudden and extensive changes occur, they have consequences for the entire culture. Displacement as a consequence of the industrialization has led not only to physical exclusion from a geographic territory but also to economic and social exclusion from a set of functioning social networks. The consequences of displacement also include desecration of ancestral sacred zones, scattering of kinship groups and families, with the disorganization of informal social networks. The process of industrialization has transformed the traditional society into a new social order. The changing family patterns have adversely impacted the traditional family institution. The elderly people who had a great honour within the family have lost their identity and dignity. The jokes between grandfather and grandmother with their grandchildren are no longer visible. The children have lost the opportunity of listening to folk tales from grandfather or grandmother. The changing pattern of occupation has created tension and uncertainty. It has resulted in disarticulation of social structure of indigenous community in sample area.
