Summary, etc. | This book is about the life and fate of the Kolta-a menial caste group-living in abject poverty at the virtual mercy of high caste landlords, who exploite them like serfs and keep them bonded in slavery-like conditions. The exploitation is perpetuated by the nor mative structure of society in the remote mountain ranges of the cis-Himalayas. The subjugation of the Kolta is not only economic but also extends to holding the Kolta people as a corpus in bondage. This process begins as an economic transaction-a loan taken by a Kolta from a high caste landlord under the cultural and ecological conditions, results in servitude for not only the borro wer but his generations to come.<br/><br/>This book brings out in graphic details the misery of the lives of the Kolta. |
