Age, Narrative and Migration : The Life Course and Life Histories of Bengali Elders in London
ISBN: 9781859733134 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Whilst the vast majority of recent research on identity and ethnicity amongst South Asians in Britain has focused upon younger people, this book deals with Bengali elders, the 'first generation' of migrants from Sylhet, in Bangladesh. The book describes how many of these elders face the processes of ageing, sickness and -- finally -- death, in a country where they did not expect to stay and where they do not necessarily feel they belong.

Anthropology and Development: Challenges for the Twenty-First Century
ISBN: 9780745333649 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Western aid is in decline. New forms of aid, from within the developing countries themselves and elsewhere, are in the ascent, and a new set of global economic and political processes are shaping development in the twenty-first century. Katy Gardner and David Lewis have completely rewritten and updated their earlier, influential work, bringing it up to the present day. They engage with nearly two decades of continuity and change in the development industry, arguing in particular that while international development has expanded since the 1990s, it has become more rigidly technocratic....

ISBN: 9780198279198 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Long-term migration is one of the most important factors in the formation of cultural identities in the modern world. Katy Gardner looks at the 'sending' communities (neglected by academic research) and covers major aspects of Bangladeshi life (land, family structure, marriage, and religion) to show how out-migration has become a central economic and social resource--the route to social, as well as physical, mobility, transforming those who gain access to it. At the heart of this important text is a presentation of the dynamic nature of migration and the possibility of self-transformation it...
