Implementing the World’s Largest Sanitation Program – Findings from Rural Jharkhand in India
Disrupting Classification
This chapter examines the demand of Indian tribes for their religiosity to be classified as being distinct from Hinduism. It contextualises this in a discussion of the governance effects of the classifications that have already been applied to tribes in India. The chapter also describes various ‘disruptions’ which this demand was or may be required to engage with – and makes the point that the assertion of a homogenous and ‘authentic’ tribal reli…
Religion and Nature Conservation
Sacred groves are community-conserved forests that are protected for cultural reasons. Many also serve a biological conservation value because they harbour a high diversity of species and provide ecosystem services such as watershed values, carbon sequestration, pollination, and seed banks. India has an estimated 100,000 sacred groves. Research conducted in South India found that residents near sacred groves recognized and valued the ecosystem se…
Cultural and spiritual significance of nature
The cultural and spiritual significance of nature has been defined as the spiritual, cultural, inspirational, aesthetic, historic and social meanings, values, feelings, ideas and associations that natural features and nature in general have for past, present and future generations of people – both individuals and groups. These guidelines respond to a growing need to make conservation more inclusive, effective and socially just by accommodating mu…

New Roles for Indigenous Women in an Indian Eco-Religious Movement
This article aims to study how a movement aimed at the assertion of indigenous religiosity in India has resulted in the empowerment of the women who participate in it.

The movement aims to assert indigenous religiosity in India and to emphasize how it …
Theorizing “cosmopolitan” support for indigenous people
This article presents a nuanced analysis of the role of the international support for a social movement in India, which became known as the Niyamgiri Movement. It uses the theory of normative cosmopolitanism to conduct the analysis. The Niyamgiri Movement was aimed at preventing the mining of a mountain which an indigenous community believed was sacred. The article advances theoretical insights into normative cosmopolitanism, and it also contribu…
Internationalized Framing in Social Movements against Mining in India and the Philippines
There are several documented cases of indigenous peoples’ conflicts with mining companies, often for the reason that the land planned for mining is sacred or culturally significant to them. This article presents a comparative analysis of two specific anti-mining social movements in India and the Philippines that combined an emphasis on environmental protection with an emphasis on indigenous cultural rights. We show how the emphasis on indigeneity…
Differential Subalterns in the Niyamgiri Movement in India
This essay discusses the politics of the non-Adivasi activists who participated in the Niyamgiri movement in the state of Odisha in India, which was aimed at preventing the mining of a mountain which an Adivasi community that lived on it considered sacred. It argues that these non-Adivasi activists were differentially subaltern, that some of them were as marginalized as the subaltern Adivasis they were representing and that they viewed the Adivas…
