Title: Adivasi (Tea Tribe) worldviews of living close to wild Asian elephants in Assam, India Authors: Banerjee, Sayan; Nayak, Dibakar; Sinha, Anindya Abstract: In Assam state, northeastern India, human–elephant conflict mitigation has included technocentric measures, such as installation of barriers, alternative livelihoods, and afforestation. Such measures treat conflict as a technical problem with linear cause–effect relations and are usually ineffective over the long term because they do not consider how historical conditions have shaped present interactions between humans and elephants. Human–elephant encounters in South Asia, including in Assam, have arisen from colonial and postcolonial land-use policies, ethnic relations, and capital extraction.
