This book addresses the epistemological analysis of subaltern subjectivity as constituting agency in structured historical processes from the perspective of an interpretation of Marxian and Gramscian holistic analysis. A theoretical framework drawn from the author’s work on Adivasi political consciousness, organization and action within the political economy of the region, covering close to two hundred years in the Thane district, Maharashtra.
