Product Specification & Summary

“Destination Dhaka: Urban Migration: Expectations and Reality” Some Information of this book: Migration from rural regions to urban centers, especially the capital city of Dhaka, continues unabated. Popular hypotheses put forth to elucidate migration are inadequate. Migrants tend to be uneducated, ignorant, landless and unemployed in the countryside. They tend to be unskilled and ill quipped for the city. Yet they migrate with expectations of a better life in the metropolis. The urban benefits, fail to tough the majority of the poor migrants. Many of the migrants live in very poor housing with some living without a shelter. An anomalous juxtaposition of abject squalor against the rising splendor of modern constructions characterizes Dhaka’s skyline. Despite the misery, people continue to pour in. the reason to migrate, it is suggested, would be some sort of expectation. It is the basis of these expectations, which warranted this investigation and analysis. Given the migrant characteristics, it is the expectation of employment (even a survival instinct) that directly affects the likelihood of moving rather than the wage differential. The author probes the compulsive factors, which instigate the poor, the uneducated and the infirm to seek out a marginal existence in the city. Their anomalous situation, so obviously at variance with the urban profile, is a constant reminder to the government of its ineffectual efforts to provide the basic minimum to its citizens, either in the tow or village. The pivotal issue is certainly the devising of a strategy of management for the authorities to resolve the dilemma of development without condemning a large proportion of its citizens to either the poverty of its urban slums. The analysis clarifies that the rural poor are migrating as a survival strategy and the resolution to this problem would lie in targeted programs of amelioration for the poorest in the rural areas.
