Covid-19 and Governance focuses on the relationship between
governance institutions and approaches to Covid-19 and health
outcomes. Bringing together analyses of Covid-19 developments in
countries and regions across the world with a wide-angle lens on
governance, this volume asks: what works, what hasn't and isn't,
and why? Organized by region, the book is structured to follow the
spread of Covid-19 in the course of 2020, through Asia, the Middle
East, Europe, the Americas, and Africa. The analyses explore a
number of key themes, including public health systems, government
capability, and trust in government-as well as underlying variables
of social cohesion and inequality. This volume combines governance,
policies, and politics to bring wide international scope and
analytical depth to the study of the Covid-19 pandemic. Together
the authors represent a diverse and formidable database of
experience and understanding. They include sociologists,
anthropologists, scholars of development studies and public
administration, as well as MD specialists in public health and
epidemiology. Engaged and free of jargon, this book speaks to a
wide global public-including scholars, students, and
policymakers-on a topic that has profound and broad appeal.

The Emergence of Bangladesh analyses and celebrates the first 50
years of Bangladesh as a nation, bringing insights from key
scholars in Bangladeshi studies to an international audience, as
well as 'bringing home' to a domestic audience the work of some of
the nation's greatest intellectual exports, the Bangladeshi
scholars who have made a mark in their field of study in academia.
The book offers unique coverage of the battlegrounds on which the
founding of the new nation was fought, including language, power
and religion, and provides unique insight into some of the hot
spots that continue to shape the development of the nation: the
issues of gender, culture, ethnicity, governance, the economy and
the army. Those with an interest in understanding the past or
present Bangladesh will find this a trove of frank and readable
analysis.
