With an MPhil in Environmental Science and Policy from the Lahore School of Economics and a PhD in Human Geography from Heidelberg University, Germany—as a DAAD scholar—Javaid’s research is rooted in long-term ethnographic work in peri-urban Lahore. This work explores how land commodification and urban expansion, while introducing a cash influx that fuels speculative real estate, can have diverse impacts on local communities. Rather than focusing solely on the physical manifestations of change, the research aims to unpack the balance of losses and gains, questioning what constitutes progress or development, and for whom. It highlights the role of intangible assets in shaping quality of life and examines how these processes transform ecologies, livelihoods, and social structures. Javaid’s academic interests center on the state–society–environment relationship and on amplifying the voices of communities navigating the often overlooked costs of development.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"land-commodification-urbanisation-and-social-change-in-peri-urban-villages-lahor-ebook","title":"Land Commodification, Urbanisation and Social Change in Peri-Urban Villages, Lahore","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWhat is Lost when Land becomes Cash?.- Military Frontiers and Neo-colonisation: Land, Power, and the Urbanisation of Lahore.- From Satellites to Sacrificial Zones: Rewriting ‘Development of Underdevelopment’ in Lahore’s Urban Frontier.- Walking the Peripheries: Ethnography as Self and Method.- Invisible Ruptures, Visible Withering: Life, Land, and Loss in Peri-Urban Lahore.- Giving Away More Than Land: Neoliberal Urbanisation and the Erosion of Community Life.- Beyond Repair - Cash Cannot Compensate for the Irreplaceable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Huda Javaid","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53628134916423,"sku":"9783032104625","price":160.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5455\/2903\/files\/land-commodification-urbanisation-and-social-chang-ebook.webp?v=1775017087"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5455\/2903\/collections\/huda-javaid-autor-kollektion.webp?v=1775017085","url":"https:\/\/www.cinebuch.de\/collections\/huda-javaid.oembed","provider":"CineBuch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
