In implementing these programmes, state actors challenge farmers? right to land, instituting spaces of violence in which multiple forms of marginalisation overlap and are reinforced. Mapping how farmers react to these challenges emotionally and practically, the book argues that these land conflicts serve as a starting point for existentially charged disputes in which the survival efforts of farmers clash with the political imaginations and practices of the nation-state. The analysis shows that losing land represents more than being deprived of a material asset: it is nothing less than the extinction of ways of life. 410 0$aTransforming Asia 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Political Economy$2bisacsh 608 $aHochschulschrift$2gnd-content 610 $aBangladesh, borderlands, nation-sate, indigenous, violence, agency, anthropology of life, land dispossession. 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Political Economy. 700 $aHölzle$b Éva Rozália$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01253739 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 856 40$xVerlag$zkostenfrei$3Volltext 856 40$xLangzeitarchivierung Nationalbibliothek$zkostenfrei$3Volltext 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996487161903316 996 $aLand, Life, and Emotional Landscapes at the Margins of Bangladesh$92907266 997 $aUNISA
