Return to Chittagong: ten years since the “postcard”

---

Abstract
Purpose – This paper aims to revisit the author’s 2007 “Postcard from Chittagong” to reprise the past decade of activity related to the ship breaking industry of Bangladesh.
Design/methodology/approach – The study is based on content analysis of global and local source documentation. This includes academic works, research reports from non-governmental organizations and general and specialist media reports. Findings – Over the past decade, there have been a number of international initiatives that seek to control
the disposal and dismantling of redundant ships. However, based on evidence of ongoing environmental and health impacts in Bangladesh, the effectiveness of these is questioned. Research limitations/implications – The paper is intended to prompt debate on the ship breaking industry in Bangladesh and on the nature of global supply chains and logistics in the consumption society. Originality/value – The paper revisits and updates a 2007 study that has been referred to and cited in a
range of outlets. It is intended to continue and enhance discussion.
