Riddle of Employment Opportunities for Rural Women in Eastern Uttar Pradesh

Book Cover

In the 21st century, even after more than two decades have passed, the challenge of work division persists. Even if participation in work is achieved, the main cause of economic oppression seems to be unequal wages based on gender. For rural Indian women, the complexity generated during employment creates more problems than the availability of job opportunities itself. If these complexities are examined impartially, it's not just about unequal wages; rather, numerous factors emerge on social, political, religious, gender, and traditional bases that complicate their access to available opportunities and hinder easy living. Understanding these enigmas of employment, the subtle level of work performed by rural women is attempted to be explained in this book through detailed analysis. For this purpose, a survey and interview of women from various villages in the development block of Devkali in the Ghazipur district of Uttar Pradesh have been conducted. The effort to comprehend this reality with clarity has been carried out in different phases. In the inaugural chapter, an in-depth exploration of rural working women is undertaken, delving into their introduction and conceptual framework. This sets the stage for a comprehensive examination of their experiences and challenges. The second chapter delves into the extensive body of literature surrounding employment opportunities for rural women, offering a meticulous analysis that unravels the complexities of their professional landscape. This rigorous examination illuminates key trends and patterns. Chapter three provides a panoramic view of the study area, offering insights into its historical and geophysical background. By contextualizing the region, a deeper understanding of the dynamics shaping the employment landscape for rural women emerges. Moving forward, the fourth chapter meticulously scrutinizes the myriad obstacles and fluctuations that impact employment opportunities for rural women. Through a discerning lens, this chapter dissects the challenges that these women encounter on their professional journey. Chapter Five navigates the intricate terrain of familial dynamics and societal attitudes toward women's workforce participation. By shedding light on these multifaceted aspects, a nuanced understanding of the broader ecosystem in which rural women operate is attained. In the ensuing chapter, the focus shifts to the formidable barriers posed by entrenched traditional values, virility, and patriarchal hegemony. These entrenched forces pose significant challenges to the advancement of rural women in the workforce, making this chapter a critical exploration of the prevailing socio-cultural context. The final chapter turns its attention towards wages, work performance, and the imperative work of safeguarding the rights of rural working women. By dissecting these crucial facets, this chapter seeks to fortify the foundations upon which the empowerment of rural women in the workforce stands.

This study highlighted the existing problems and prospects of bilateral relations of Bangladesh and China in terms of different issues like Rohingya repatriation, Maritime Silk Route, etc. Although many studies have been conducted on this topic, none have brought attention to the problems with foreign policy in relation to development issues as this one has.

The purpose of the present study is to contribute to an understanding of the current Sino-Bangladesh relationship and to explore the new dimension of Sino-Bangladesh foreign relationship. The study proceeds with the following objectives –
