Abstract
Involuntary displacement caused by development projects has become a great concern in the present era of the free market economy across the globe. There has been extensive research on involuntary displacement; however, it was confined to subjects like anthropology, sociology, and development studies earlier. However, after the 1990s, a very useful theoretical approach to human security is evolving in analyzing the effects of involuntary displacement caused by a number of reasons. Studying the case of the Kaptai Dam of Bangladesh, the study shows that it has brought a broad range of human insecurities into focus—like economic insecurity, food insecurity, health insecurity, environmental insecurity, community insecurity, personal insecurity, and political insecurity. Hence, the paper has suggested for the application of human security approach as a useful tool for researchers while studying the global problems of involuntary displacement.
