This book brings together a collection of essays about the
untenable political status quo in Bangladesh under Sheikh Hasina.
Since democratization in the 1990s, Bangladeshi political life has
been characterized by fierce battles over the role of religion in
society, corruption, and the obstacles to constructing a society
with freedom of expression and rule of law, independent from the
influence of powerful neighboring countries. Academic freedom and
other human rights issues have hindered the study of Bangladesh
heretofore, and corruption, police abuses, and election rigging are
common as well as widely documented. In this passionate, sometimes
personal exploration of the issues of social justice, rule of law,
and the democratic process in Bangladesh, the book offers a
valuable case study of how an Asian developmental state is
otherwise regressing backwards morally, socially, and politically.
The Bangladeshi struggle for sovereignty, prosperity and democracy
documented in this book will be of interest to political
scientists, scholars of South Asia, and those of Islam.
