The preliminary defense of Md. Reza Habib's PhD thesis took place in the Laboratory
The preliminary defense of Md. Reza Habib's dissertation was held on August 4, 2023 at a joint meeting of the Department of Sociology and our Laboratory.
Dissertation work of Md. Reza Habib: «Refugee-Host Community Conflict over Assimilation, Integration, and State legitimacy: the case of Rohingyas in Bangladesh» raises questions about (1) how did the assimilation and integration processes of Rohingya refugees with the host community of Cox's Bazar exteriorize conflict over public services and environmental resources, (2) how did Bangladesh's government policy towards citizens’ welfare shift and (3) eventually, how did it lead to a state legitimation crisis in Bangladesh.
Academic Supervisor: Arnab Roy Chowdhury, PhD in Sociology, Research Fellow at our Laboratory.
Following the discussion held during the meeting, it was decided to set a new date for the pre-defense of Md. Reza Habib's dissertation.
