| 520 | |a Kerala model of development experience had been characterized by high social sector development with poor economic performance. There was a long-standing view that the development experience was based on certain `averages' and therefore, there were `outliers' to the unique social sector development of Kerala. The fisher-folk, Tribal groups and the scheduled caste of Kerala were identified as the examples of outliers.Recent literature shows that the development process of Kerala registered a turnaround since the late-eighties imparting considerable economic growth stimulus to high human development. A question that emerges is whether the process of development in contemporary Kerala could encompass the erstwhile `outliers' to its mainstream OR the understanding of Kerala development experience is continues to be on averages, leaving the marginalized unaffected? This study is an enquiry into the status of marginalized communities in Kerala with special reference to the tribal population. A major contributor to the turnaround in Kerala has been identified as the service sector.When we look at the structure of employment among the tribal population in comparison with that of the non-tribal, we find that the growing sector of Kerala's economy has not absorbed the tribal population. The major chunk of the tribal population is still engages in agriculture and allied activities whereas for the state as a whole the structure of the employment is showing a transformation from the primary to the tertiary sector. It is also observed that the change in the social and economic status of the tribal community has been marginal than that of the average population of Kerala. Hence the study argues that the Kerala model of development celebrated during the 1970s and the 1980s as well as the recent turnaround in the growth shows only an average picture and the tribal population is kept out of the general achievements made by the state. Therefore, the tribal population of Kerala is still to be considered as the excluded from the development experiences of Kerala | ||
