Lamia Karim

    Lamia Karim is an anthropologist whose work critically examines the complexities of globalization, modernity, and gender. Her research delves into the dynamics of social movements and challenges conventional understandings of development initiatives, particularly focusing on the impact of microfinance on women in Bangladesh. Through her ethnographic research, she offers a radical critique, revealing the often-unseen discontents and inequalities embedded within these economic structures.
