Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2021 is the 50th year of Bangladesh and as such the Bangladeshi community in UK are celebrating the 50th anniversary through various projects. The celebrations and festivities are subdued because of the Covid 19 pandemic and the lockdown restrictions; but nevertheless various events have taken place. 25 years ago on 14th April 1996, as a younger man I was in Trafalgar Square, London, taking photos of the event that took place, under the Nelson's column and the Gallery. There I was impressionable and a photography enthusiast attending and taking photos. This event was before digital photography, using 35mm film negatives. While I wasn't in the politics but as a photojournalist, it was a setting to capture memorable shots. We know that so much has changed and also so many people in the photos are no longer with us. Though they are not my relations I look at the photos memorably; as we once shared the same space in our lives; where we crossed paths. So, as they will live in my memories, I want to share them with those who, it will mean something to them.

Download or read book Bangladesh 50 written by A K M Shahidul Islam and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 16th December 1971, a new nation was born. Bangladesh, literally meaning the 'country (or land) of Bengal', came into being with a declaration of independence following nine months of liberation war. So, on 16th December 2021, the 'land of Bengal' will be celebrating its 50th Victory Day and the birth of its nation. Proud Bangladeshis from all walks of life both in the country and right across the world will come together to commemorate the occasion. It will no doubt be a time of reflection, remembrance and gratitude for the many people who lost their lives but there will also be those who wish to look forward reflecting on how far the country has come and what the future holds. The initiator of this book A K M Shahidul Islam grew up in Bangladesh but now lives in France and like many proud Bangladeshis wanted to do something to commemorate our 50th Victory Day. Mr Islam was a Tour Guide whilst studying in Dhaka for four years from 2010 to 2014. During this time, he had the opportunity to meet hundreds of guests in Bangladesh and to travel with them to all corners of Bangladesh many times. Mr Islam made lots of friends with people from different countries and they are all still in touch. To celebrate the happy moment together with Bangladeshi, Mr Islam invited his friends to share their memories of Bangladesh and its people to honour and give back to a community who offered them the best hospitality while they were at their beautiful homeland. Today, the patchwork pieces of a single bonding with friends met on the way, come together to create a rich quilt made of stories, images, emotions and vibrations. We are all proud to present you today the results of our collaboration. The 'Bangladesh@50: Through the Lens of Our Global Friends' book project consists of photographs and words that beautifully capture some unique perspectives on Bangladesh. Our memories of the country and its people are still alive today and this is strongly reflected in our short stories. These stories have all been written with love for Bangladesh and the very spirit of the book is aimed at connecting people in Bangladesh with each of the visitors. What's really interesting has been to note both the similarities and differences between the perspectives. People may have travelled to the same physical locations in Bangladesh, but their interpretation will be unique to them. In some ways, however, these unique individual experiences combine to present a complete picture of the experience of the country from the point of view of a visitor to Bangladesh. The book is available to purchase online on Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing worldwide and 50% of any proceeds will be used to promote selected cultural and heritage projects in Bangladesh. First and foremost, this is a project to commemorate the birth of Bangladesh. But if we can use it as a vehicle to give back, then that's great too but the main aim is to capture a unique perspective on Bangladesh to mark the 50th Victory Day event by bringing people together and making it available to all Bangladeshis and interested parties across the world. And at a time when separation and division increasingly threaten to define us, a project that unites us rather than divides us and a unique invitation to open up to different perspectives could just be the tonic that we all need right now.

Download or read book Politics and Governance in Bangladesh written by Ipshita Basu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its Independence in 1971, Bangladesh has made remarkable progress in terms of reducing poverty levels, achieving high levels of economic growth over a sustained period of time, and meeting its Millennium Development Goals (MDG) targets set by the United Nations. With some justification, Bangladesh is considered an international development success story, and the country appears to be well on track to meet its policy target of becoming a middle-income country by 2021, the same year the country will celebrate 50 years of Independence. This book explores the central issue of Bangladeshi politics: the weakness of governance. The coexistence of a poor governance track record and a relatively strong socioeconomic performance makes Bangladesh an intriguing case which throws up exciting and relevant conceptual and policy challenges. Structured in four sections - Political Settlement, Elites and Deep Structures; Democracy, Citizenship and Values; Civil Society, Local Context and Political Change; Informality and Accountability – the book identifies and engages with these challenges. Chapters by experts in the field share a number of conceptual and epistemological principles and offer a combination of theoretical and empirical insights, and cover a good range of contemporary issues and debate. Employing a structurally determinist perspective, this book explains politics and society in Bangladesh from a novel perspective. Academics in the field of governance and politics in developing countries, with a focus on South Asia and Bangladesh will welcome its publication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jamaat Question in Bangladesh addresses the complex intersection of global politics and local dynamics in Bangladesh, particularly in relation to Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami (Jamaat). With multidisciplinary insights and perspectives, the contributors to this volume provide an objective socio-historical analysis of Islam, politics and society in Bangladesh. Separating fact from fiction, they attempt to uncover the truth about Jamaat, the largest Islam-based political party in the country.

Can it peacefully coexist with rival political parties in a polarised nation such as Bangladesh? This book seeks to answer these crucial questions. An essential read for those interested in Bangladeshi politics and political Islam.

Download or read book Democratic Governance in Bangladesh written by Nizam Ahmed and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of government in the governing process of Bangladesh. It primarily focuses on the dilemmas and constraints faced by the successive democratic governments elected since the early 1990s. Bangladesh has had a new democratic beginning since the early 1990s and formally remained a democracy for the last the three decades. Despite impressive performance in the economic and social fields, the country has lagged far behind most of the new democracies in the political realm. This book identifies how representative institutions of governance have gradually declined under democratic governments in Bangladesh, and how disagreements on the ‘basic rules of the game’ have made the task of governing extremely difficult and democratic consolidation problematic. This book is a significant and comprehensive analysis that identifies and explains the implications of the crises in governance for democratic consolidation in Bangladesh. It will be of interest to academics studying Area Studies, in particular South Asian Studies, and the increasingly researched areas of governance, public policy, and administration.

Download or read book Southern Postcolonialisms written by Sumanyu Satpathy and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2020-11-29 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Southern Postcolonialisms is an anthology of critical essays on new literary representations from the Global South that seeks to re-invent/reorient the ideological, disciplinary, aesthetic, and pedagogical thrust of Postcolonial Studies in accordance with the new and shifting politico-economic realities/transactions between the North and the South, as well as within the Global South, in an era of globalization. Since the emergence of Postcolonial Theory in the 1980s, the shape of the world has changed dramatically. Old Cold War boundaries have shifted in the wake of the collapse of communism, Globalization, on an unprecedented scale, has dramatically changed the meaning of time and space. The rise of the US as a new imperial power has profound implications for the world order. In the South, new emerging markets have challenged the older division of industrial ‘first world’ and non-industrial ‘third world’. In most parts of the world, the academy is struggling to keep up with these developments. One result has been a major transnational turn in the humanities and social sciences. Terms like ‘world history’, ‘globalization’, ‘glocalization’ and ‘transnationalism’ now dominate academic agendas worldwide. These changing circumstances raise far-reaching questions. What does the new emerging world order mean for established models of postcolonial theory? Is postcolonialism as a field of study being overtaken by models of globalization and transnationalism? What implications do the new configurations in the South have for postcolonial theory? This volume, drawn from a major literary conference at Delhi University, provides a set of perspectives on these questions. With a majority of contributions by scholars from the South, these research articles have a dual focus – they revisit older debates on postcolonial theory, while suggesting new perspectives and directions.

Download or read book Coastal Disaster Risk Management in Bangladesh written by Mahbuba Nasreen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses disaster and disaster risk reduction (DRR) practices, constraints and capacity in the context of coastal Bangladesh. Located in the lower riparian of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh has to face frequent disasters such as floods, cyclones, river erosion, salinity intrusion as well as drought. Drawing together a range of multidisciplinary perspectives, Coastal Disaster Risk Management in Bangladesh explores the connection between climate change and DRR issues in this region. The editors reorganize disaster studies around social and physical changes that can reduce these risks and put at risk populations on a stronger footing by making risk reduction the focus. These include measures to improve disaster preparedness, to boost recovery by creating better disaster planning and programs, and physical and social initiatives to improve disaster resilience. Also, analyzing the gender perspective, the volume also utilizes the local knowledge framework to consider whether these populations have resilient knowledge that needs to be incorporated into initiatives based on advanced technology and perspectives. This book will be of interest to academics, researchers, students, policymakers and practitioners in the field of disaster, DRR and governance, climate change, climate change adaptation (CCA) and the environment.

Download or read book South Asian Filmscapes written by Elora Halim Chowdhury and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In South Asia massive anticolonial movements in the twentieth century created nation-states and reset national borders, forming the basis for emerging film cultures. Following the upheaval of the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947 and the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971, new national cinemas promoted and reinforced prevailing hierarches of identity and belonging. At the same time, industrial and independent cinemas contributed to remarkably porous and hybrid film cultures, reflecting the intertwining of South Asian histories and their reciprocal cultural influences. This cross-fertilization within South Asian cultural production continues today. South Asian Filmscapes excavates these complex politics and poetics of bordered identity and crossings through selected histories of cinema in South Asia. Several essays reveal ways in which fixed notions of national identity have been destabilized by the cross-border mobility of filmed arts and practitioners, while others interrogate how filmic politics intersects with discourses of nationalism, sexuality and gender, religion, and language. Together, they offer a fluid approach to the multiple histories and encounters that conjure “South Asia” as a geographic and political entity in the region and globally through a cinematic imagination.
