Rahaman3 1 MDS Graduate, Economics Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna – 9208, Bangladesh 2 Professor, Economics Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna – 9208, Bangladesh 3 MDS Graduate, Economics Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna – 9208, Bangladesh Abstract: This study attempts to explore the socio-economic impact of cropland agroforestry in Bangladesh. We surveyed 84 farmers of two sub-districts named Manirampur and Bagherpara under Jessore district in the south-west region of Bangladesh through using a questionnaire during the period of June to July 2013. It follows a multistage random sampling procedure for selecting respondents. The main objective of the study is to assess the socio-economic impact of Cropland Agroforestry (CAF) on farmers’ livelihood. The survey results reveal that CAF farmers’ socio-economic status is better than that of Non-Cropland Agroforestry (NCAF) or monoculture farmers. This study finds that housing pattern, level of education, land and other physical assets are significantly different between CAF and NCAF farmers. The mean annual household income of the surveyed CAF farmers is Tk. 0.19 million which is significantly higher (p<0.05) than that of the surveyed NCAF farmers. Household income also varies widely according to farm size and number of members in a household. The Weighted Mean Index (WMI) of five major indicators of farmer’s household livelihood situation reveals that CAF farmer’s household energy and food situation, affordability of education, medical and clothing expenditure is better than NCAF farmers. -

Jaseem Uddin 2 1- Tropical & International Forestry, University of Goettingen, 37077 Gottingen, Germany 2-Institute of Forestry & Environmental Sciences, University of Chittagong, Chittagong, Bangladesh Received: 23/05/2014 Accepted: 30/06/2014 Published: 06/07/2014 Abstract The study was conducted at healthcare establishments of Abhaynagar Upazila of Jessore District in Bangladesh to quantify amount of medical waste (MW) generated from the medical services; determine physical composition of MW; find out the correlation of waste quantity with relevant factors; identify problems and develop future guideline regarding management. The average waste generation rate was 37.11 kg/hospital, 1.56 kg/bed/day, and 1.90 kg/patient/day. The hazardous waste was recorded 9.71%, whereas, non-hazardous waste 90.29%. MW consisted eight categories of waste materials with vegetable/food being the largest component (74%), and varied significantly (p ≤0.05) among other hospitals surveyed. The quantity of MW was positively correlated with the number of occupied beds (R 2=0.898, P ≤0.05) and with the number of patients (R 2=0.785, P ≤0.05). Separate legislation must be formulated to address the issue of medical waste management as a separate environmental mandate and regular supervision of them are very much necessary.

Globalization especially the economic globalization has brought about new opportunities and opened dynamic windows for the people of the world based on the notion of liberalism, free market, easy access of goods and services. Although globalization has brought about some positive gains for individuals and society, it has caused negative impacts on the society called ‘the dark side of globalization’. It has created complex and multifaceted security problems and threats to the countries especially the developing countries like Bangladesh. Globalization has changed the nature and dynamics of crime although crime is not a new phenomenon in Bangladesh. The nature or pattern of crime has changed remarkably with the advent of globalization, modern technology and various modern devices, which pose serious security threats to the individuals, society and the country. Globalization has created easy access to conducting illegal trade such as small arms, illegal drugs and human trafficking and some violent activities such as kidnapping, theft, murder, around the world as well as in Bangladesh. It has developed the new trends of crimes, gun violence, drugs crime, and increasing number of juvenile convicts and heinous crimes committed in Bangladesh. Over the years, the number of organized murder crimes is increasing along with rape cases and pretty nature of crimes with the advent of globalization and information technology. -
