This book is a collection of commentaries on Bangladesh's politics, culture and history. This collection is being published at a time when the society and politics of the country are divisive and far from being tolerant. Universities and many public intellectuals are not beyond the realm of such divisive politics. In fact many public intellectuals and scholars are part of expanding division in the society. As a result, we see media commentaries and public debates are manufacturing divisive narratives about Bangladesh. Against the backdrop of such politics of division, the space for exploring Bangladesh from a neutral perspective is under serious pressure. This book however is an effort to offer a non-partisan neutral narrative of Bangladeshi history, culture, politics and society through previously published short commentaries. Written over the period of five years, this book is a reflection of how Bangladesh has evolved as a country.Author Bio: Mubashar Hasan PhD is a Sydney based author and researcher with expertise on Bangladesh among others.
