Traditional Administration In A Tribal Setting: A Contextual Discourse On The Tangkhul Naga Tribe

BARNALI SARMAH

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

The administration in the tribal areas is unique in its place. Its historicity reflects a system where democracy existed in its purest form. In the past the tribes in the North-East India had efficient system of administration. A system so suitable to them lasted through centuries and formed an integral part of their life. There were villages entirely governed by this traditional system of administration, and till the present day many tribes have retained to a considerable, their traditional laws, customs and village organisations. I have made an attempt to discuss the dynamics of the tribal administration of the Tangkhul Naga tribe in its historicity and also to understand the continuation of the same in some form or the other in the midst of the modern system of administration.
