PAPER WITHDRAWN--Migration, Legal Inadequacies, and Changing Societal Values.

The process of migration exists worldwide and has been in existence since time immemorial. Yet it now occurs more prominently not only within a state but also internationally. There has been a strong urge on the part of the rural population to leave their home to find employments and opportunities elsewhere in space and time within and beyond national boundaries attempting to bring a change in their lifestyles both economically and socially. On the one hand, the development of different components of our local government including rural infrastructure and economy did not keep pace with the development emphasis on the urban areas, while on the other, globalization, recent advances in communication, both physical and electronic, as well as ushering in of modern science and technology is resulting in vital resettlement of people around the world with consequent legal complexities which is leading to significant displacement of population segments, major dislocation of families and consequent desolation and painful reshaping of the societal values as a consequence of our existing laws lacking the ability to cope with these "new conditions" with a "human face" in sustaining social relationships in the context of modern-world space and time.The paper aims at analyzing this complex social context resulting from this new global perspective with a typical example of movement of poverty stricken work forces across Bangladesh's rural, urban as well as global neighborhoods of the industrialized countries as manifested through the inadequate legal framework prevailing in the existing power structure around the globe. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
