This second edition of Development-Induced Displacement and Resettlement in Bangladesh: Case Studies and Practices in paperback is a revised and expanded version of the first edition. The book and its chapters have been updated in view of the new land acquisition law and resettlement guidelines, including a “post-script” to explain the significance of the new developments around development-induced displacement and resettlement in Bangladesh. The book also captures the newly emerging trends and thinking regarding the country systems and practices that are likely to characterize resettlement management in the future.
As “a very important first for Bangladesh” in the field of displacement and resettlement, the book will be of interest to development specialists and will remain as a valuable sourcebook and teaching aid in anthropology, sociology, cultural/human geography, law, political science and development studies.
