This book explores gendered perceptions of the Sundarbans Forest in Bangladesh, and the extent to which these perceptions are affected by extreme weather events (specifically, cyclones Aila and Sidr).

The objective of this book is to find out societies¿ attitude to the growing up process of an individual. The prime focus goes to the drawing of a holistic perspective of social definition of a child as a man in different stages of his life in the context of Bangladesh. The initial part of this paper contains the introduction and background of the topic. Next part portrays literature review as well as operational definitions. . In the middle portion I have endeavored to sketch the theoretical framework where several theories of personality have been emphasized. The later part crystal clearly shows the methodological arrangement. Here I have used the qualitative research framework and its KII technique. The next chapter has been cited with the major interpretation of findings. In this dissertation I have given my own analysis where both feminist perspective and gender perspective have been prioritized.

This book blatantly critical of patriarchy and shed light on the knowledge that improve the position of women from the historical perspective to contemporary world. This book also emphasizes on those knowledge and strategy that clobber mysterious philosophy of patriarchal society and covet to retrieve the dissipated true position of women in society. This theoretical perspective is a debatable issue world wide as feminists have taken different standpoints for their irrespective ideological stances. The current book intended to expedite the social movement of feminists through the epigrammatic exercise of knowledge. It does not challenge the existing discourse. The views [e.g., Husband and wife are one; and that one is the husband (Blockstone); A horse, whether good or bad, needs a spur; a woman, whether good or bad, needs a lord and master, and sometimes a stick (De pison)] that delude people and espouse the fettering and reprehensible knowledge have been examined in this book. The current study extrapolates the possible way out of women¿s current subordinate position pinpointing the scintillating path of women emancipation.

Bangladesh has a population of approximately 152 million and has experienced increasedrapid urbanization with the growth of many secondary towns over the last three decades.About 27 per cent of the total population now lives in urban areas where the populationgrowth rate is much higher than the overall national growth rate. Varied economic activities,availability of social services, greater employment opportunities, and geographic expansionof towns are the main reasons for rural-urban migration and the increase in urban population.The current size and structure of urban population in secondary towns has increased thedemand for infrastructure and services beyond the existing physical and institutional capacity,reducing the effectiveness of poverty reduction strategies and public confidence in localgovernment.
