Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies on displacement and rehabilitation have occupied centre stage in the contemporary discourse on development issues. The primary concern of these studies revolved around the issues of economic vs social cost, the local antagonism towards big dams, the policy of the state on displacement and rehabilitation and the macro-level evaluation of large dams. They either condemned, in an emotional way, the Government's insensitivity towards the alarming issue of displacement or highlighted the immediate effect of dislocation. Most of these studies treated the displaced peopel as homogeneous entity ingnoring thereby the cultural variations. Such a trend threw little light on the intricate relationship between social life and displacement. Anthropological studies on the impact of dislocation and resettlemtn on the social structure of the displaced community, especially focussing on the process of change, have rarely been undertaken. By incisiverly analysing the impact of displacement and rehabilitation on the social structure of the Paraja, a hill tribe of highland Orissa, this bok has gone beyond the traditional framework of understanding displacement and involuntary resettlement.
Download or read book Development induced Displacement Rehabilitation and Resettlement in India written by Sakarama Somayaji and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-03-31 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compulsory land acquisition and involuntary displacement of communities for a larger public purpose captures the tension of development in the modern state, with the need to balance the interests of the majority while protecting the rights of the minority. In India, informal estimates of involuntary resettlement are estimated to be around 50 million people over the last five decades, and three-fourths of those displaced still face an uncertain future. Growing public concern over the long-term consequences of this has led to greater scrutiny of the rehabilitation and resettlement process, particularly for large development projects. This book examines a number of new policy formulations put in place at both the central and state levels, looking at land acquisition procedures and norms for rehabilitation and resettlement of communities. The book combines a theoretical analysis of the proposed regulatory framework with detailed case studies that examine the application of these norms in specific geographic contexts across the country. It brings together contributory analysis by some of the country’s most engaged administrators, academics, and activists in the field, and is a useful contribution to Development Studies.

Download or read book Development Induced Displacement and Resettlement written by Irge Satiroglu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year millions of people are displaced from their homes, livelihoods and communities due to land-based development projects. There is no limit to what can be called a ‘development project’. They can range from small-scale infrastructure or mining projects to mega hydropower plants; can be public or private, well-planned or rushed into. Knowledge of development-induced displacement and resettlement (DIDR) remains limited even after decades of experience and research. Many questions are yet unanswered: What is "success" in resettlement? Is development without displacement possible or can resettlement be developmental? Is there a global safeguard policy or do we need an international right ‘not to be displaced’? This book revisits what we think we know about DIDR. Starting with case studies that challenge some of the most widespread preconceptions, it goes on to discuss the ethical aspects of DIDR. The book assesses the current laws, policies and rights governing the sector, and provides a glimpse of how the displaced people defend themselves in the absence of effective governance and safeguard mechanisms. This book is a valuable resource for students and researchers in development studies, population and development, and migration and development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The case studies of five large dams constructed in India presented in this volume examine in detail the policies that governed the rehabilitation of those people displaced during the process. Those affected were left to fend for themselves, gained no advantages from the project that had disrupted their lives, and often ended up as migrant labourers. The contributors stress the need for well-planned rehabilitation policies for such groups, with adequate provision for cultural diversities and ensuring them a share in the benefits from the project.

Download or read book Displacement and Resettlement in India written by Hari Mohan Mathur and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past ten years or so, displacement by development projects has gone on almost untamed under the globalization pressures to meet the demand for land from local and increasingly foreign investors. Focusing on India, this book looks at the complex issue of resettling people who are displaced for the sake of development. The book discusses how the affected farming communities are fiercely opposing the development projects that often leave them worse off than before, and how this conflict is a matter of serious concern for the planners, as it could discourage potential capital inflows and put India’s growth trajectory into jeopardy. It analyses the challenge of protecting the interests of farmers, and at the same time ensuring that these issues do not hinder the path of development. The book goes on to highlight the emerging approaches to resettlement that promise a more equitable development outcome. A timely analysis of displacement and resettlement, this book has an appeal beyond South Asian Studies alone. It is of interest to policy makers, planners, administrators, and scholars in the field of resettlement and development studies.
