Item description from seller

Paperback. BOOK OVERVIEWThe Complex Tapestry of Assam's Cultural Identity: History, Ethnicity, Religion, Language, Politics, and the Future of a Plural Society presents an interdisciplinary and evidence-based exploration of the historical evolution and contemporary dynamics of Assam's diverse cultural landscape. Drawing upon history, anthropology, sociology, political science, linguistics, religious studies, archaeology, and environmental studies, the book examines how centuries of migration, indigenous traditions, political transformations, religious interactions, and linguistic diversity have collectively shaped the identity of one of India's most culturally complex regions.
