Thesis Title: Confronting the Juggernaut of Extraction: Local-National-Transnational Mobilization against the Phulbari Coal MIne in Bangladesh

Dr Michael Biggs

About

I am interested in the rationale of resistances against transnational extractive industry with special reference to developing countries. I have used mixed methods to analyse the following: role of policing, strategic framing, and ideological divergences within local, national and transnational fields of contention.

Other research interests include rural sociology and action research through theatre.
