Ethnicity and Ethnic Formations among the Bengali Refugees: A Micro study in Central India

Author(s) Ms. Kritika Mishra, Dr. NilakanthaPanigrahi
Country India
Abstract Ethnicity and Ethnic formation is a part of human social evolution.Such social formations over the time are influenced by various processes like cooperation and conflict, mobility, adoption and rejection etc which are guided by primordial features like region, language, religion, culture etc. Secular factors enforced by market during last few centuries have started playing important roles and became very pertinent in human day- to- day life, reflecting the syncretic manifestation of culture, politics and economic transformations in the society. However, the fact remains that the secular approach could not even wipe out the cultural content of ethnic formations and ethnicity all over the world in different human societies. With this premise, the paper while taking certain socio- cultural indicators, aims to explore the ethnic formations and ethnicity of the Bengali refugees at destination of their rehabilitation in India. The study observed that the Bengali refugees who have come from Bangladesh maintain a harmonic relationship with the local people and also project their ethnicity. The paper argues that ethnicity in Indian context has to take the help of certain primordial and secular characters so as to maintain a judicious inter-ethnic boundary for survival and prosperity of the refugee community.
Keywords Ethnicity, Ethnic formation, socio-cultural adjustment, Bengali refugees, local people.
