Disasters and Historic Silence: A Review of the Evidences of Exploitation in Folk Culture of Colonial India

Author(s) Dr. SURAJ MINZ
Country India
Abstract The present paper is based on various literature available on the issues related to disasters in India during the colonial administration. The history of disaster provides ample evidence of a chronological overview of hazards during a disaster and human exploitations during and post-disaster situations. The disaster is perceived as a popular culture or folk culture of a nation’s history and its society. The development process in India has been displayed through an evolutionary process from barbarism to civilized society. The study of disaster is included in the domain of culture and tradition where the disaster vulnerability is either erased or the data is manipulated. While studying the causes of disasters, many a time the roles of popular culture, power, and social structure are taken into account to justify the disasters. The sociologists, in the broader context, highlighted that individuals are often influenced by the physical and cultural context in which they live and become part of disaster situations. The study of popular culture often depicts the cultural practices towards exploitation of weaker sections of the society including women and peasants in colonial India. Studies of such experiences help contemporary researchers in redesigning strategies to meet the challenges arising from disasters including wars, pandemics, deaths, poverty, and others.
