Empirical Study Of Social Capital Among Tribal Communities In The India

Abstract

The conceptualization of social capital may vary among academics due to their divergent focuses on specific facets of the construct. These elements encompass the functions, outputs, sources, and effects of the subject matter.  The indigenous tribal populations of India are currently experiencing various times of transformation. The distinctiveness of a particular tribe is determined by its lifestyle, customs, and rituals. These entities might be located in various regions across the nation. This study will provide novel perspectives on the impact of social capital on these outcomes. The acquisition of this novel information would enable indigenous people to effectively adjust to changing circumstances with enhanced flexibility compared to prior limitations. Furthermore, the objective of this study was to provide suggestions for enhancing the social capital of the Paniya tribes residing in Tamil Nadu.
