Naveeda Khan Boeken

Naveeda Khan examines the relationship between nature and culture through the study of the everyday existence of chauras-the people who live on sandbars within the Jamuna River in Bangladesh-to show how nature configures daily life.

Naveeda Khan, an Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Johns Hopkins University, brings her expertise to the edited volume that challenges prevailing narratives about Pakistan. By examining the complexities of the country's social and cultural landscape, this work seeks to move beyond the typical crisis-focused perspectives, offering a more nuanced understanding of Pakistan's realities and potential.
