Rezensionen
'This handbook of Prof. M. C. Behera is a seminal work of his 40 years of experience in tribal research in which he introduces to an emerging dilemma in contemporary perspectives on tribal religion. Historically, there always have been communications between the tribal and host cultures through adoption, assimilation, and incorporation of elements of each other. Prof. Behera's notion of contemporaneity provides an insight into studying the historical process of cross-cultural negotiations which needs further research'

-Prof. Mohan K. Gautam, President and Chancellor of the European University of West and East, Netherlands

'The handbook edited by Maguni Charan Behera reflects contemporary tribal religion at the background of historical process of culture contact where propaganda, force and manipulation also had a role. It questions 'conventional notion of tribal religion' and its community dimension; focuses on indigeneity, identity, and thus on the trend of revivalism; and suggests the framework of 'tribe and religion' to study the emerging dynamics in tribal belief system.'-Dr. Tai Nyori, Adivasi Historian and Founder President of Indigenous Faith and Cultural Society of Arunachal Pradesh (IFCSAP)

'This handbook is relevant in understanding the reciprocity and complementarity of many faiths which co-exist in the cultural space of India. It re-examines the philosophy of tribal faith against the conventional discourse of studying religion from a colonial point of view.'-Dr. Mahendra Kumar Mishra, Folklorist
