Produktbeschreibung
This book with seven chapters deals with Sustainable Development with a clear emphasis on traditional knowledge that is part of culture, folk way of living, mode of production, social structure and inner perception. These aspects could help us to understand the ways through which the community gradually becomes complex, gets sensitive to its historical background, approaches forward, seems to be serious about identity and could contribute in or at least response to the ongoing geopolitics and express their own perception on economic crisis. Here, the area chosen is North Bengal that falls under Indo-Malayan belt, Tibeto-Burmese enclave, Sub-Himalayan region and mainland India with extensions from both Eurasian and Afro-Asian lines. Rajbanshi and Gorkha are the peoples who have been selected here for elaborate discussion.
