Abstract

This paper discusses the pro-active role of caste panchayats in relief from the perspective of social resilience, a factor that is frequently argued to be of importance for disaster management. It presents panchayat action as an expression of collective agency that has a long tradition in the fishing villages of the region. Finally, comparing the reactions of caste panchayats in the post-tsunami situation with their performance in other instances of collective need, it considers their future role in fields such as fisheries management.
