Describing the divisions which have arisen between the two groups as a result of confrontation over land, the book nonetheless stresses how they are linked by ties of economic and political interdependence and in so doing, explores the link between culture and politics. <BR> First published in 1970.Routledge library editions.Anthropology and ethnography.Limbu (South Asian people)HindusNepalLimbu (South Asian people)Hindus305.8/0095496Caplan Lionel.643368MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818621903321Land and social change in East Nepal4044234UNINA
