Because trucks in Bangladesh and India are not allowed to operate across the border, cargo is transloaded at the border, and Indian trucks traveling between northeast India and the rest of India must go around Bangladesh through the Siliguri Corridor, which significantly increases transport and trade costs. This lack of integration means that it is more costly for Bangladesh and India to trade with each other than for either of them to trade with Europe. As a result, bilateral trade represents only about 10 percent of Bangladesh's trade and a mere 1 percent of India's trade. Connecting to Thrive: Challenges and Opportunities of Transport Integration in Eastern South Asia presents a collection of innovative technical analyses that show what is needed to achieve seamless connectivity in the region. The report explores the extent to which the Bangladesh-Bhutan-India-Nepal Motor Vehicles Agreement (MVA) supports the cross-border operation of road transport services and identifies the gaps in the agreement that need to be addressed to improve its effectiveness. It assesses the potential shift of freight traffic to new routes and modes in eastern India and Bangladesh once the MVA is implemented and the potential impact of the MVA on wages, employment, and income in Bangladesh and India. It explores how the local impacts of a regional corridor could be enhanced in rural areas by improving access to markets along the corridors and how women's participation in export-oriented agriculture value chains could be improved to allow women to take advantage of improved regional connectivity. Connecting to Thrive will be of interest to policy makers, private sector practitioners, and academics with an interest in regional connectivity in eastern South Asia.

En fonction de leur situation sociale, de leur passé et de leurs projets - bref, de leur genre de vie -, les personnes utilisent et fréquentent l'espace différemment. Si le cadre de vie est un donné, les acteurs parviennent quelquefois, par leurs mille détours, à en fluidifier les rigidités, contourner ou dénier les contraintes. Sur la base d'une longue recherche de terrain, cet ouvrage étudie la mobilité quotidienne des familles, sous l'angle à la fois matériel et symbolique, à savoir les trajets routiniers concernant aussi bien le travail ou l'école que les sociabilités, les courses ou les loisirs... Les trajets dépassent quelquefois les seules exigences matérielles pour s'inscrire dans un projet. Mais la mobilité quotidienne est aussi un ensemble d'actions réalisées pour que d'autres actions soient possibles en vue de (re) produire des personnes ou des choses. Voilà pourquoi il est difficile de réduire son volume, même si on peut en modifier certaines formes ou composantes. Bouger moins signifie bien souvent, à l'instar des ghettos, s'enfermer dans un quartier dont on souhaiterait sortir. C'est la limite que la vie quotidienne impose aux idéologies défendant l'équipement de proximité comme solution à la mobilité urbaine croissante. Sans la fluidité des espaces, sans un peu de flou dans les territoires, que la mobilité quotidienne autorise, la vie dans certains quartiers serait insupportable... Il est raisonnablement prévisible que plus les contraintes du quotidien se multiplieront, et plus la liberté demandera à s'extérioriser. Plus les rigidités spatiales et temporelles s'amplifieront et plus on se déplacera, tant pour satisfaire les exigences de la vie courante que celles de la raison et de la passion.
