Notwithstanding
the availability of a number of empirical studies
on the socio-cultural problems of the north-east,
this book is probably the first serious attempt to
conceptualize the central issues in this
area, with a firm grasp of the post-modern perspective
upon the subject.
Needless to say that this book will be of immense
interest to all these concerned with the social, cultural
and political issues of the north-east: teachers,
students, ethnographers, journalists and politicians
alike.
