Read and write a 5 page paper on the book, A quiet Violence: view from a Bangladesh Village
Thus, the book is a description and analysis of life in a small villlage. But there are lots of things to be learned from this village for development in general. I would like you to pick some lesson(s) which grabbed you from the book and write a paper explaining why this lesson(s) are useful for understanding or addressing development today. For example, what does the tubewells story tell us about development policy. Or what kind of insights does to book give about world hunger. Or you could focus on the struggle to escape poverty and hunger, what does the book tell us about this? Or what does it mean to do Development, as a western worker in a developing country?
