This book is an attempt to understand the impact of modern educational system on their traditional educational institutions as well as socio-economic structure. The tribal people are prover bially poor. In midst of India's first changing economic life, the tribal people are facing a great economic crisis as well as socio-cultural disintegration. No single aspect of life can remain independent of other aspects of life. Disintegration of traditional economy of the tribal people has deformed their socio-cultural life. It has been found that extreme form of economic disintegration in the case of some tribes of India has led them to criminality. So, reorientation or reorganization is the prime need at present and we have also noticed that modern education failed to overcome their socio-economic crisis.
