THE Movements of movements politics of our era
expanded our democratic experience.It raised various
issues relating to self rule for adivasis,right to
information,anti-nuclear issue,women, dalit,lgbt
issues etc.The language of these movements are
different and there should be a space for interaction.
Adivasi movement which gives a certain ideas of eva
morales-zapatista type identity assertion.Material
issues +cultural identity (land and their culture
mode of life which is close to nature)became the part
of that movement.Self rule of kerala adivasis is being
crushed again and again.Their livelihood question was
always ignoring.They are facing ethtnocide/genocide
reality in Kerala/indian context.
The neo-communitarian politics of the Adivasi gothra
mahasabha has to be innovative but what is happening
is the internal problems now.Different adivasi
organisations are fighting among themselves for
political and social hegemony.There will not have any
unity among these organisations.Adivasis areas have
been the most neglected areas of india.These areas are
becoming the important centers foe foreign and indian
multinationals.Even the 5th schedule protection and
samata judgement based activism is not in a good
position in the present era.Adivasis is becoming a
scapegoat.This is kerala/india pattern.
Right to difference is also a slogan of new
right.Lepen 's of french Right wing party -National
front ,added this term in their political
vocabulary.What they want to protect core french
values which don't have any pollution.Most often,The
new cultural politics of the present era is
expressing the worst kind of group particularism and
authoritarian populist politics.
What we are witnessing the power concentrating in
power and it gives misery to the people.The present
democratic movements/single issue movements/non-party
political formations etc have to find out a language
for communication.Most often,The state-party system
ignores/co-opts 'the movements of movements'.Most of
these movements are operating in the limited sphere of
democratic experiment of the society.Whenever these
movements are trying to overcome this limited sphere
for mobilisation,they are confronting severe
repression(Nandigram,kalinga nagar,khammam,muthnaga
etc)
note this line---
One of the well known think tank of the the mainstream
parliamentary left(CPM)-Vijay prashad said about
their PCDP-people's campaign for decentralized
planning project(kerala)-This was also a movement
which was far more important than right to
information campaign of india.Left was working within
the confines of US imperialism,international financial
arrangements and injustice of the central
government-left was innovative. the states' lists of
india doesn't provide much space for
development.that means -Within that limitations,the
CPM was a leading a single issue movement which was
challenging the depoliticisation of the neo-liberalism
of indian state.A new development project for kerala
society by which a new leftist project for kerala
democratisation.CpIM also defines the new single
issue movement.
