This book brings together pioneering and evidence-based research that focuses on youth employment—one of the foremost development challenges of our time—and fills a critical research and knowledge gap alongside consolidating existing relevant literature. Comprehensive in scope, the book provides an overview of trends in youth employment in Bangladesh, empirically analyses the determinants of youth unemployment, covers relevant economic theory, and recommends policy measures for employment creation in Bangladesh. The new evidence from Bangladesh on the aforesaid issues will inform relevant and concurrent policy discourse, add value to related research in the field, and inspire future research. The insights gathered through this study will serve as an important lesson for other developing countries on what works and what does not in policy-making.
This book analyses the trade relationship between Bangladesh and Japan, including foreign investments and foreign aid by Japan to Bangladesh. It emphasises how Japan may support Bangladesh in its next development journey during the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) and after Bangladesh’s Least Developed Country (LDC) graduation. This is the first book to present a comprehensive evaluation of Bangladesh's economic relationship with Japan, including how it has evolved over the preceding fifty years and its possibilities and implications for the future. The book draws attention to the importance of increased economic diversification for Bangladesh in terms of skill and productivity with the increasing need to accelerate technological adoption from Japan to be on par with international competition following Bangladesh’s LDC graduation. It presents a thorough examination of Bangladesh's prospects to access the Japanese market, as well as Japan's assistance in the development of human capital and infrastructure in Bangladesh. It also discusses how Bangladesh might both attract additional foreign direct investment (FDI) from Japan and improve its technical skills by utilising expertise obtained through Japanese investments. This new study will inform policy discourse, influence relevant policies, and inspire future research on these key issues.
