Marking the 50th anniversary of Bangladesh's Constitution, this
book gauges its development from 1972 to 2022, focusing on its
foundational goals, performances, and current challenges. The
collection, presenting diverse but issue-specific chapters, shows
how the people, political parties and leaders, and constitutional
and legal institutions interact with each other in advancing,
breaking, and remaking their Constitution. It examines the local
context, parliamentary history, and interpretive tools adopted by
the Supreme Court in understanding the Constitution as well as the
future prospect of constitutional politics and practices. The work
brings together legal professionals and constitutional law scholars
to encapsulate the panorama of the country’s constitutional
evolution. The authors look back to the history of
constitution-making, to reflect critically on the present in light
of the founding goals, spirits, and aspirations and with a view to
offering a forward-looking and resilient vision of
constitutionalism in Bangladesh. The book will be of interest to
researchers, academics, and policy-makers working in the areas of
comparative constitutional law and politics and South Asian
Studies.
This volume addresses the idea of origins, how things are formed,
and how they relate to their present and future in terms of
'constitution-making' which is a continuous process in South Asian
states. It examines the drafting, nature, core values and roles of
the first modern constitutions during the founding of the eight
modern nation-states in South Asia. The book looks at the
constitutions of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives,
Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. It provides an explanatory
description of the process and substantive inputs in the making of
the first constitutions of these nations; it sets out to analyse
the internal and external (including intra-regional) forces
surrounding the making of these constitutions; and it sets out
theoretical constructions of models to conceptualise the nature and
role of the first constitutions (including constituent documents)
in the founding of the modern nation-states and their subsequent
impact on state-building in the region.
