| dc.description | This book is a continuation of my previous book ‘‘Living with Transformation.’’ While the previous one discussed the physical behavioral patterns of the transformations in self-built houses, this book focuses on the reasons behind the transformation incidents. Starting with the explicit reasons, it did not stop there. An ethnographic study unveiled some very significant implicit reasons that usually remain oblivious behind the explicit ones. Cultural norms vary from context to context. In some cultures, the norms are more explicit, while in some others they are not. In the context of Dhaka City, which represents a city of the developing world, cultural norms are still very much oblivious. At the superfluous level, one may not be aware of them. However, this ethnographic study tried to dig deep and extracted some of those norms through the study of the transformations of their houses, which gives some insight to the readers about the culture. | en_US |
