The economic and social development that Bangladesh has achieved in
the past two decades has made Bangladesh a development paradox.
This book tries to explain this paradox through a political economy
lens. The book explains the linkages between the state, changing
society and emerging private sector, and examines whether the
social transformation taking place in Bangladesh has the potential
to live up to the expectations of a middle- income country. The
early part of the book unravels the myriad relations between the
state, society and market to project the aspirations of a newly
independent nation. It analyzes how political turmoil,
militarization of politics, politicization of institutions, reforms
initiatives, industrial and social development policies, and the
power nexus influenced the nature of the political economy of
Bangladesh. The book goes on to examine how domestic appetite for
capital and raw materials, the digital revolution, and the capacity
of the local market to absorb expanded economic activities have
created an environment that catalyzes innovation and
entrepreneurship. The book also explains how the country has
attempted to transform from an agrarian to a manufacturing- based
economy, with rapid growth in the ready- made garment industry,
pisciculture, pharmaceuticals and the ICT sector. Bangladesh’s
journey from an emerging economy towards a developed country would
interest those researching on development economics and those in
policy making.
