Product Description

Parliaments or legislatures are the keystone of democratic governance and they are critical in securing government accountability. This book presents a comparative analysis of the role of parliamentary committees in securing government accountability in the three largest and most important functioning democracies in South Asia: Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka.

The author compares the nascent democracy of Bangladesh with the stable and vibrant democratic system of India since its independence from the British in 1947 and Sri Lanka's longstanding and established democracy. He argues that in each country, parliament has been able to survive and perform the key parliamentary tasks of representation, legislation, oversight of the executive, conflict resolution and regime maintenance; concluding that parliamentary committees in Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka do not perform as successfully as their counterparts in the Western world in controlling the government and holding it to account; however, their role in securing government accountability is not irrelevant.

Parliamentary Control and Government Accountability in South Asia will be a useful reference for studying third world parliaments in particular.

Very insightful to the history of Bangladesh.At times it seems to be a little judgmental and may not give an accurate representation of how people actually felt at the time.Also, readers may get confused with all thenames, dates, and events that take place, but this is part of Bangladeshihistory.Overall, the book was very good and helped me make more sense ofthe confusing history of Bangladesh. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
In recent years, Bangladesh has experienced an alarming rise in Islamist fundamentalism. The world began to take serious notice of this after the grenade attack on the Awami League’s rally in Dhaka on August 21, 2004 almost succeeded in killing off the entire top leadership of the party. This book shows that terrorist acts such as this are part of a systematic attempt to destroy Bangladesh’s secular and democratic political parties, as well as its vibrant intellectual and cultural life, and to convert the country into a hardline Islamic one. The author further argues that the headquarters of Islamic terrorism is shifting from Afghanistan to Bangladesh, which he describes as a ‘soft’ state with an ineffective government and police force, and which Islamist groups, with their organized and well-armed cadres, can easily dominate. Islamists are being systematically placed in key positions in government, and an Islamist state within a state is being built for the ultimate takeover of Bangladesh as the base for Islamist-including Al Qaeda and Taliban-operations in South and Southeast Asia. This lucid, hard-hitting and well-documented book analyzes in detail the circumstances-historical, social, cultural and political-which account for the rise of violent Islamist fundamentalism in Bangladesh, a country known for its cultural plurality and religious tolerance. The author also discusses the chances of halting the process, through a determined and well-strategized effort by those committed to keeping Bangladesh a moderate and tolerant modern Islamic nation. ...

1-0 out of 5 stars flawed, biased and out of touch with reality
This so called author has clear hatred for Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a muslim dominant country with a large hindu population as well as other minorities. So here's a question for you all praising the book. If Bangladesh is actually as the author portrays (source - his uber-fertile brain perhaps?), then how did WOMEN get elected to run the country? Not once, but THREE TERMS? A FEMALE prime minister! This evidence is absent in even many western countries. And when was the last time Bangladesh had a communal riot?
The answer is never! But this is a regular occurance in India. In India priests are burned alive, trains are put on fire with people inside. No such appalling incidents ever occured in Bangladesh.

All I have stated are facts. I just gave few examples to show how this book is clearly trying to mislead public opinion. Bangladeshi Muslims are the most liberal and friendly of all Muslim world.

1-0 out of 5 stars Talibanization
In a Taliban society as the author claims Bangladesh is turning into they force strict regulation of women, including forbidding of most employment or schooling for women. In Taliban society the Taliban creates a banning of long lists of activities movies, television, videos, music, dancing, hanging pictures in homes, clapping during sports events. The Taliban also create religious police to enforce those laws. Also discriminatory attitude towards non-Muslims.

Now if all those things mentioned above are not implanted then its not a Taliban state, So the ignorant author would you please enlighten us where do you see women being denied education and theres laws banning womens education and laws banning movies, TV, Music, and Dance. I wonder how Dr.Muhammad Yunus was able to issue micro loans to women if they were banned from leaving their home by them self let alone start a business.

1-0 out of 5 stars disconnect with reality
The author equates possibly the most tolerant of all Muslim countries as being the next Afghanistan.This is a country of 150 million and it is not difficult to find individual crimes committed against a member of religeous minority, if that is the object to begin with.As with practically all countries there is a violent right wing element as well.The author prefers to overlook the rejection of such elements by mainstream Bengali culture and the actions taken by the government against violent radicals.Also he either intentionally ignores, or is ignorant of, the differences in culture, history, and national structure which go against his hypothesis.The author assumes his theory his correct and tries to find specific facts that support it, rather than taking an impartial stance to see whether the broad body of evidence supports his theory, which it does not.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent analysis
Very nice job of explaining the influence of Islam in Bangladesh today. Is the author biased? Of course, as is the reviewer below. But a veneer of bias does not change the plethora of facts set forth by the author nor does it invalidate the logical conclusions he reaches. Read it for yourself.

1-0 out of 5 stars A politically biased book
The author created fictional connections between few internal events with islamic fundamentalism which I beleive to cater the western audience to steer them away from the facts. Bangladesh had been a progressive country whose major population happens to be muslim. Given the recent 'not so well' relationship with India, the author of Indian origin paints a grim picture showing isolated political events to crate propaganda and anti bangladesh sentiment. In contrast, India sees more racial/fundamentalist voilence than Bangladesh and creates economical barrier for smaller neighboring countries like Bangladesh to develop by creating bad press and international influence. ...

Product Description
The parliament in Bangladesh predates similar bodies in many other developing countries in origin. Yet, it remains one of the least researched political institutions in the country. This book seeks to remedy the deficiency in legal studies in Bangladesh, setting out to give a description of the "new" parliaments elected in the 1990s, after the periods of British and Pakistani rule. The book identifies different dimensions of their activities, such as: the nature of legislation they have passed; the issues that have interested their members; the strategies the members have adopted to get things done - especially to make the government behave; the techniques they have used to solve conflicts; and the measures taken to strengthen parliament. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description

The past decade has seen a marked policy focus upon Bangladesh, home to nearly 150 million Muslims; it has attracted the attention of the world due to weak governance and the rising tide of Islamist violence. This book provides a broad-ranging analysis of the growth and impact of "political Islam" in Bangladesh, and reactions to it. Grounded in empirical data, experts on Bangladesh examine the changing character of Bangladeshi politics since 1971, with a particular focus on the convergence of governance, Islamism and militancy. They examine the impacts of Islamist politics on education, popular culture and civil society, and the regional and extraregional connections of the Bangladeshi Islamist groups.

Bringing together journalists and academics - all of whom have different professional and methodological backgrounds and field experiences which impact upon these issues from different vantage points - the book assesses Bangladesh’s own prospects for internal stability as well as its wider impact upon South Asian security. It argues that the political environment of Bangladesh, the appeal of Islamist ideology to the general masses and the dynamic adaptability of Islamist organizations all demonstrate that Bangladesh will continue to focus the attention of policy makers and analysts alike. This is a timely, incisive and original explanation of the rise of political Islam and Islamic militancy in Bangladesh.

Product Description
"Is Bangladesh becoming a Taliban state? The question has become urgent in light of the growing strength of militant groups supposedly aligned with Al Quaida, the landslide victory of the center-right coalition in the general election of October 2001, and the deliberate and planned violence against religious minorities that followed. God Willing explores the explosive issue of Talibanization by analyzing the politics of Islamism in the world's third most populous Muslim country. Ali Riaz helps the reader to understand the emergence of Islamism as a legitimate democratic political in a largely secular state, as opposed to the media's sensational portrayal of Bangladesh as a country overrun by Islamist forces with a supranational agenda. The author compares Bangladesh with Indonesia and Pakistan, thus adding a valuable global context for evaluating the politics of Muslim countries." ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Good observations
Its a good reading. Although the book is decorated with endless academic jargon, it presents the modern history of Bangladesh in a less-biased way. The authors style is very academic and he looks at the political set-up in a secular way. The reader can actually feel there is a sort of leftist touch when he sees that the author is referring to Gramsci not infrequently. But then the author is determined to explain the forces and motivation behind the ruling clique in a socio-political structure. I liked his observations.

1-0 out of 5 stars Welcome to the mind of a confused babbler!!
This is not a book, it's more like a bland paper to be submitted to scome academic journal. The author claims that bangladesh is becoming a hotbed of fundamentalism, yet the constitution is firmly based on secular principles. They even have Christmas, Doorga Pooja, Diwali as state holidays. If you're interested in reading the biased opinion's of a perosn, you might like the book, but if you want intelligent interpretation / exposition of facts, you'll be disappointed. ... Read more
