Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Il Bangladesh è ampiamente riconosciuto come uno dei Paesi più vulnerabili al clima del mondo. Subisce frequenti disastri naturali che causano perdite di vite umane, danni alle infrastrutture e ai beni economici e impatti negativi sulle vite e sui mezzi di sussistenza. I poveri delle aree urbane sono estremamente vulnerabili ai cambiamenti climatici e alle implicazioni dei disastri, che sono ancora più forti nel caso della città di Dhaka. Il cambiamento climatico indotto dal riscaldamento globale influisce su Dhaka principalmente in due modi: attraverso le inondazioni e il blocco del drenaggio e attraverso lo stress da calore. Gli obiettivi di questo studio sono principalmente quelli di esaminare le implicazioni dei disastri e dei cambiamenti climatici per i poveri estremi urbani. Poiché i poveri estremi sono privi di tutti i supporti, come la salute, l'istruzione, l'alloggio, ecc. Quindi, se un disastro colpisce i poveri urbani, le persone perdono tutto. Tuttavia, a causa delle implicazioni sanitarie, i poveri estremi urbani soffrono molto. Lo studio esaminerà le implicazioni dei disastri e dei cambiamenti climatici sulla loro salute e su altri bisogni primari. Inoltre, si scopriranno le pratiche esistenti per far fronte ai disastri e ai cambiamenti climatici.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Italienisch.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -Bangladesch ist weithin als eines der klimatisch anfälligsten Länder der Welt bekannt. Es wird häufig von Naturkatastrophen heimgesucht, die Menschenleben kosten, die Infrastruktur und Wirtschaftsgüter beschädigen und sich negativ auf das Leben und den Lebensunterhalt auswirken. Die arme Bevölkerung in den Städten ist extrem anfällig für die Folgen des Klimawandels und der Katastrophen, und die Auswirkungen sind im Fall von Dhaka noch stärker. Der durch die globale Erwärmung verursachte Klimawandel wirkt sich in Dhaka vor allem auf zwei Arten aus: durch Überschwemmungen und Abflussverstopfung und durch Hitzestress. Ziel dieser Studie ist es vor allem, die Auswirkungen von Katastrophen und Klimawandel auf die extrem Armen in der Stadt zu untersuchen. Da die extrem Armen keine Unterstützung in den Bereichen Gesundheit, Bildung, Unterkunft usw. erhalten, sind sie vor Katastrophen jeglicher Art nicht geschützt. Wenn also eine Katastrophe die städtischen Armen trifft, verlieren sie alles. Aufgrund der gesundheitlichen Auswirkungen leiden die extrem Armen in den Städten jedoch sehr stark. Im Rahmen der Studie werden die Auswirkungen von Katastrophen und Klimawandel auf ihre Gesundheit und andere Grundbedürfnisse untersucht. Außerdem werden die bestehenden Praktiken zur Bewältigung der Katastrophen und des Klimawandels untersucht.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Deutsch.

People move into cities to seek economic opportunities. A major contributing factor is known as 'rural flight'. Cities, in contrast, are known to be places where money, services and wealth are centralized. Cities are where fortunes are made and where social mobility is possible. This paper analyzes unemployment and underemployment in a country of LDCs within a qualitative adjustment framework. Four extensions it has been made including allowances for more generalized job-search behavior, why people force to migrate, Difficulty of adaptation and adjustment with the city and Survival strategies of the migrants. The result of these modifications is a much lower predicted unemployment rate, which accords more closely with actual observations. Some additional policy implications deriving from the analysis are noted 96 pp. Englisch.
