Conclusion. 330 $aThis book explores the quality of life of Badagas, an ethnic minority group in South India, as they navigate a society in flux, with specific reference to rural-to-urban migration and new media. At an empirical level, it reveals how Badagas understand themselves and the multifaceted changes in their culture and daily lives, exploring a pertinent concern at the forefront of debate about the future from a global perspective. The book draws attention to the fact that people are adopting flexible identities and lifestyles in an attempt to survive and thrive in a changing India and world, a new ?Indian-ness? shaped at the local level. It offers a timely update on previous research on Badagas, which dates to the 1990s, and also serves as an important case study on people?s experiences of the social and economic transformation of Indian society as they become accustomed to new ideas, products, and ways of life. As such, it is a must-read for all those interested in quality of life in India and developing societies. . 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Well-Being and Quality of Life Research,$x2211-7644 606 $aQuality of life 606 $aSelf 606 $aIdentity (Psychology) 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aCommunication 606 $aSociology 606 $aQuality of Life Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X23000 606 $aSelf and Identity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20150 606 $aMigration$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X24000 606 $aMedia Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X29000 606 $aSociology, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22000 615 0$aQuality of life. 615 0$aSelf. 615 0$aIdentity (Psychology). 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aSociology. 615 14$aQuality of Life Research. 615 24$aSelf and Identity. 615 24$aMigration. 615 24$aMedia Research. 615 24$aSociology, general. 676 $a306.0954 700 $aDavey$b Gareth$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0909959 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300580003321 996 $aQuality of Life and Well-Being in an Indian Ethnic Community$92102271 997 $aUNINA
