Description
Throughout the human civilization, no issue has been as catchy as change. This change occurs, sometimes, rapidly while its motion is very slow in other times as it were music. Notably, Bedeys, who had been traditionally keeping their life-styles unchanged and do not usually welcome any change, are also changing their socio-economic, socio-political and cultural environment. So, now is the time to talk about the changes that occurred in Bedey communities in Bangladesh. After reviewing the literature in this field, it was found that most of the previous studies showed merely coherent pictures of the Bedey's life styles. Hence, "Bedey Community of Kanchonpur: A Sociological Study" is a great endeavour to scrutinize how and why the Bedeys are getting settled; how they are reshaping and recognizing their society under a different social setting; and what major changes they are welcoming, and to explore why changes are occurring in Bedey communities. Thus, the present work will help the future researchers conduct the rigorous studies in this arena, and find out the determinants of changes in Bedey communities of Bangladesh towards rethinking a sociology of professional minority groups.
