Voice of Dalit, 2014

Globalization appears to be the buzzword of 1990s which has penetrated many academic debates. The process ofg lobalization has made deep inroads into India's social, economic and cultural life. It has not only affected all aspects of human life but has also influenced the social institutions to a great extent. In order to promote socio‐economic justice many affirmative measures were introduced in the Indian Constitution and a lot of welfare schemes were initiated for the uplift of the underprivileged dalits. But globalization has not only threatened it but also made it very weak. In fact socioeconomic justice and social welfare which is an integral part of the Indian Constitution is slowly getting eclipsed because of privatization and globalization. It has created a new situation where dalits are pushed again to a state of anxiety. This paper seeks to investigate the ilfplications of globalization in the arena of education, access to land, poverty, health c~re facilities, food s...

IF you are totally illiterate and living on one dollar a day, the benefits of Globalization never comes to you", these are the words of Mr Jimmy Carter, the 39 th President of United States of America which are still applicable in today's modern, 21 st century world where the economy and multinational supply and logistic chains which do not abide by the political boundaries have created a unique 'economic model' wherein the evidence of economic integration could be found; the results of which directly reflected in new economic era that flourished out of the need of Global Business Integration Mechanism Policy i.e. The Globalization. The policy of Globalization that has changed the face of the world in post-World War II era effected economic sphere of India as well. The wave of Globalization has been experienced by various sections of multi-dimensional Indian society, their livelihood, employment, socio-cultural life including their cultural and religious practices, health, education, women and disadvantaged and socially backward sections differently. According to one Anthropological Survey, total of 4,635 communities are now to be found in India out of which total tribal communities are 732 in number. The impact of Globalization on tribal communities is multifaceted as they are the ones that evidently negatively affected not only in India but all over the world. In the name of Development, the life, livelihood, culture and habitat of indigenous people has brought under the hot-iron of Globalization. The tribal way of life is dictated by the law of nature. Notwithstanding the fact that the constitution of India has granted various safeguards to the tribal communities, they continue to remain the most backward and discriminated groups in India. Cases of displacement of tribal people in India have increased manifold. Commercial activities under the garb of economic growth and economic development brought alien forces, cultures and influences into the traditional life and culture of Tribal communities. The question of development cannot remain confined to the quest of economic growth however it also required to addressed the fundamental question of 'living with dignity and liberty'. The benefits of development touted under the Globalization has not percolated down to the poorest, socially backward and disadvantaged sections of the society but reached to those who are already educated, well-settled, well-fed and well-nourished. The aforementioned words of US President Mr Jimmy Carter truly describes the plight of socially disadvantaged and economically backward people in India who knows nothing but discrimination, exploitation, poverty, inflation, hunger, sorrows, helplessness and DEATH. This Paper attempts to examine the fundamental philosophy, evolutionary history of Globalization and its effects on Indigenous communities which further attempts to emphasis on a need to develop the special policies and models to cater the differences between the Haves and Have-nots in the shadow of Globalization to establish the principles of Rule of Law and Natural Justice to show the light to those who are eternally thrown in the darkness.

While globalization has accelerated the flow and interconnectedness of capital, goods, information, people, and technology, it has also intensified disconnection, exclusion, and marginalization. Much research has been undertaken on this subject, aimed primarily at providing the bases for the policies for eradication of the exclusionary process of globalization. This paper, based on secondary data, seeks to add to this body of knowledge by addressing the following issues. First, it tries to explain the concept of globalization and how it has affected India. Also, it highlights how the exclusionary processes associated with globalization have provided ways for social exclusion. The data used in this paper are extracted from the carefully selected literature on the subject. It has examined the link between globalization and the exclusion of marginalized sections in India. The findings of this paper show how globalization touches upon issues of well-being and social justice. In the process of globalization-driven development, marginalized sections have paid their toll in the form of their land, livelihood, culture, knowledge, and other resources. In the name of development, governments have put the lives of these groups at stake, especially tribals. This study recommends a few measures to minimize the widening gap between the weaker and the dominants that would be helpful for policymakers in minimizing the exclusionary practices led by globalization towards the marginalized sections.

Typically, it has been associated with the destruction of cultural identities, victims of the accelerating encroachment of a homogenized, westernized, consumer culture.

Change is inevitable process. Every creature on this earth is subject to " change ". Except biological changes, all other changes made by man coined as culture are also subject to change. From the Paleolithic to Neolithic period, man introduced many cultural traits for his/her smooth and cozy survival, which created ground for the introduction of human rights .Such cultural evolution, now has reached to a state of Globalization. In the process of evolution man shifted from river bank settlement to urban set up because of technological development and water storage system. Due to accessibility of water, man created multi storied buildings to accommodate everyday growing population. In today's world economy money plays a major role. Now man can afford anything with the help of currency and he/she can earn more and more by his/ her physical and mental work. This monetary approach created many classes of very poor, poor, medium, rich etc in the process of change. So change is counter part of one's life and nation too. Globalization has accelerated the pace of human's life. Generally this term is used in economic sense. In India globalization has created a gap between traditional and imported culture, trade, livelihood etc. Due to cheap labour, availability of man power and easy trade policy, multinational companies prefer to plant their factories on Indian soil. Present paper discusses intervention of globalization in India and its effect on human rights of people of India. The case study of Plachimada of Kerala state shows that MNC's are making adverse situation for indigenous people and making their survival difficult. People have lost their traditional occupation of agriculture due to intervention of globalization. On the other hand peasants of ground nuts and fisheries of Anantpur of Andhra Pradesh, are committing suicide due to collapse of their traditional occupation in the wake of globalization. PAGE 1 Present study also shows that intervention of economical globalization has shunned many jobs opportunities at gross route level in India and has made adverse effect on traditional and cultural life of indigenous people.
