Aussi le projet de ce livre simple, clair, nourri de travail de terrain, est-il de nous y initier. L’auteure saisit cette société vivante, diversifiée, tolérante et violente. Elle évoque les croyances, la morale, les habitudes, les normes mais aussi ce qui est caché: le rôle des castes et de la famille dans la mobilité sociale et dans les relations de travail, la religiosité quotidienne, la notion de temps, la ruralité en face des mégapoles, le monde des fêtes, le rapport au corps et à la sexualité, la place des femmes dans cette société patriarcale et le regard porté sur les Occidentaux.

Beset by droughts and food shortages in recent years, it is the home of the Sahariyas, former bonded laborers, officially classified as Rajasthan’s only “primitive tribe.” From afar, we might consider this the bleakest of the bleak, but in Poverty and the Quest for Life, Bhrigupati Singh asks us to reconsider just what quality of life means. He shows how the Sahariyas conceive of aspiration, advancement, and vitality in both material and spiritual terms, and how such bridging can engender new possibilities of life.

Résumé:
Beyond the dense urbanism of Mumbai (Bombay) or the IT centers of Bangalore and Hyderabad lies the Ganges River basin--today home to over one-quarter of India's billion-plus population--a space historically defined by a mythological constellation of terrestrial sites imbued with celestial significance. Not only is it one of the most densely populated river basins in the world, but it also undergoes dramatic physical changes with the onslaught of the wet monsoon, where over one-meter of rainfall occurs in the span of three months. This book focuses on the intersection of these two observations. It is an atlas of built and unbuilt projects designed to transform the river into a giant water machine.
