79 Chapter- V 79 Chapter- V RESEARCH SETTING 80 It is hardly possible to conceptualize, perceive, and interpret the data very accurately unless a clear understanding of the characteristics of the area is at command of the interpreter. The interpreter, who intends to unveil an understanding of the implications and behavioural complexes of the individuals living in the area under reference and form a representative part of the larger community, also needs to have a clear concept of the attitude or behaviour of its people. A research setting is a surrounding in which inputs and elements of research are contextually imbibed, interactive and mutually contributive to the system performance. Research setting is immensely important in the sense because it characterizes and influences the interplays of different factors and components. It comprises two types of research settings viz., Macro levels and Micro levels. Macro research setting encompasses the state as a whole, whereas micro level starts from the boundaries of the chosen districts to school periphery. The notion behind this form of presentation is to internalize the study environment in terms of broader perspectives with state as reference frame and district, school profile as units for in-depth study. This chapter is intended to present a brief description of the area, where the present study has been carried out. It has been carried out in all the nineteen districts of West Bengal viz. Darjeeling, Jalpaiguri, Cooch Behar, Uttar Dinajpur, Dakshin Dinajpur, Maida, Murshidabad, Birbhum, Nadia, Hoogli, Howrah, Kolkata, South 24 Parganas, North 24 Parganas, Barddhaman (Burdwan), Purulia, Bankura, East Midnapore (Purba Medinipur) and Paschim Medinipur (See Map-5.1). The setting of this study is sought to describe in terms of geographical, cultural, economic, 81 demographic, and educational aspects ofthe study areas. 5.1.

It emphasizes work participation of poorer people of the society, makes them engaged in employment and self-help sector and establishes a synthesis between development of tourism by upgrading the degree of livelihood status of poor people so that poverty eradication is possible and socio economic status of poor people is improved. Thus, it encourages poor people to participate more effectively in their developmental processes. Active participation in this field includes sincere participation in work for all poor people ranging from different local communities and belonging to below poverty line of an area. Strategies have been developed to implement this sort of tourism in backward but tourism potential areas in several developing countries in order to generate local employment, resource utilization and management in particular. Investment from different level is encouraged to micro level development to pull tourists to enhance economic prosperity and social interaction with communities in this innovative approach. Here, the ultimate objective is to achieve the net benefits that go in favor of poor people. The paper highlights about the tourism potential of Cooch Behar district of West Bengal as an area of study and seeks to introduce and develop Pro-poor tourism to improve the living standard of poor communities as well as rejuvenate local economy.

It has a strong impact among the audience as the appeal of Bengali folk-drama is undeniable. ‘Bolan’ is a traditional folk drama of Bengal which is mainly celebrated in the month of ‘Chaitra’ (march-april). Geographically, it is prevalent in the mid- northern rural and semi-urban regions of Bengal (Rar Banga area) – mainly in Murshidabad district and some parts of Nadia, Birbhum and Bardwan districts. Although it follows the theatrical procedures, yet it is different from the same because it has no female artists. The male actors impersonate as females and play the part. Like other folk drama ‘Bolan’ is in direct contact with the audience and is often interacted and modified by them. Primarily it narrates mythological themes but now-a-days it narrates contemporary socio-politico-economical and natural issues. As it is performed different contemporary issues of immense interest audiences is deeply integrated with it and try to assimilate the messages of social importance from it. And in this way Mass (traditional) media plays an important role in shaping public opinion and forming a platform of exchange between the administration and the people they serve.
