The Kodavas of Kodagu district in Karnataka have a distinct social structure and follow a set of unique social codes and values peculiar to the community. Various influences have resulted in shifting social identities, which maybe a potential indicator of an identity crisis within the group. The present study follows a Constructivist Grounded Theory approach to inquiry, to arrive at an analytical schema of the process of social identity formation of the Kodavas. The analysis of data collected from forty-one middle and older adults, highlight the core traditional attributes of the Kodava identity, factors contributing to identity transition and its reflection in contemporary times. – Reproduced
