Abstract:
The concept of exclusion although not termed c such, is not new in development
practices in Bangladesh.Existence of government and non -government programs such as free education for women, the upsurge of micro-finance etc arc all evidence of the fact
that certain groups in society are excluded' from the regular delivery network. As such
special programs or new modes of delivery have to be deigned to include the excluded'.
This paper aims at explaining the process of exclusion through an economic perspective using the typical demand- supply abstract. We have shown that excluded individuals face additional costs in order to gain access to particular spaces which leads them to reduce consumption in there fronts. Using the concept of consumer surplus w have identified certain economic motives that encourage the persistence of exclusion by non-excluded groups
