Shattered dreams: the plight of female labour migrants and their social reintegration in Bangladesh / Sabiha Raiyen Shoshi, Md. Imrul Kayes, and Shafiqul Islam This book challenges the way development has been conceptualized and practiced in the South Asian context and argues for its deconstruction in a way that would allow freedom, choice, and the greater well-being of the local people. Far from taking development for granted as growth and advancement, this book unveils how it can also be a destructive force in local socio-cultural and environmental contexts. By critically examining conventional development practices as hegemonic, devastating, and failing, this book highlights how rethinking development could be seen as "praxis", a matter of practice, by incorporating people's interests, priorities, and expectations--back cover |
