This book examines how migrant remittances contribute to household
social resilience in rural Bangladesh. Using a mixed methods
approach, the authors show that remittances play a crucial role in
enhancing the life chances and economic livelihoods of rural
households, and that remittance income enables households to
overcome immediate pressures, adapt to economic and environmental
change, build economic and cultural capital, and provide greater
certainty in planning for the future. However, the book also
reveals that the social and economic benefits of remittances are
not experienced equally by all households. Rural village households
endure a precarious existence and the potentially positive outcomes
of remittances can easily be undermined by a range of external and
household-specific factors leading to few, if any, benefits in
terms of household social resilience.
