  • Birth of Bangladesh: Down Memory Lane
    Indian Foreign Affairs Journal Vol. 4, No. 3, July - September, 2009, 102-117 ORAL HISTORY Birth of Bangladesh: Down Memory Lane Arundhati Ghose, often acclaimed for espousing wittily India’s nuclear non- proliferation policy, narrates the events associated with an assignment during her early diplomatic career that culminated in the birth of a nation – Bangladesh. Indian Foreign Affairs Journal (IFAJ): Thank you, Ambassador, for agreeing to share your involvement and experiences on such an important event of world history. How do you view the entire episode, which is almost four decades old now? Arundhati Ghose (AG): It was a long time ago, and my memory of that time is a patchwork of incidents and impressions. In my recollection, it was like a wave. There was a lot of popular support in India for Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and his fight for the rights of the Bengalis of East Pakistan, fund-raising and so on. It was also a difficult period. The territory of what is now Bangladesh, was undergoing a kind of partition for the third time: the partition of Bengal in 1905, the partition of British India into India and Pakistan and now the partition of Pakistan. Though there are some writings on the last event, I feel that not enough research has been done in India on that. IFAJ: From India’s point of view, would you attribute the successful outcome of this event mainly to the military campaign or to diplomacy, or to the insights of the political leadership? AG: I would say it was all of these.

  • An Analysis of Online Discursive Battle of Shahbag Protest 2013 in Bangladesh
    SEXISM IN ‘ONLINE WAR’: AN ANALYSIS OF ONLINE DISCURSIVE BATTLE OF SHAHBAG PROTEST 2013 IN BANGLADESH By Nasrin Khandoker Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies In partial fulfillment for the degree of Master of Arts in Gender Studies. Supervisor: Professor Elissa Helms Budapest, Hungary 2014 CEU eTD Collection I Abstract This research is about the discursive battle between radical Bengali nationalists and the Islamist supporters of accused and convicted war criminals in Bangladesh where the gendered issues are used as weapons. In Bangladesh, the online discursive frontier emerged from 2005 as a continuing battle extending from the 1971 Liberation War when the punishment of war criminals and war rapists became one of the central issues of political and public discourse. This online community emerged with debate about identity contest between the Bengali nationalist ‘pro-Liberation War’ and the ‘Islamist’ supporters of the accused war criminals. These online discourses created the background of Shahbag protest 2013 demanding the capital punishment of one convicted criminal and at the time of the protest, the online community played a significant role in that protest. In this research as a past participant of Shahbag protest, I examined this online discourse and there gendered and masculine expression. To do that I problematized the idea of Bengali and/or Muslim women which is related to the identity contest. I examined that, to protest the misogynist propaganda of Islamist fundamentalists in Bangladesh, feminists and women’s organizations are aligning themselves with Bengali nationalism and thus cannot be critical about the gendered notions of nationalism. I therefore, tried to make a feminist scholarly attempt to be critical of the misogynist and gendered notion of both the Islamists and Bengali nationalists to contribute not only a critical examination of masculine nationalist rhetoric, but will also to problematize that developmentalist feminist approach.

  • Students, Space, and the State in East Pakistan/Bangladesh 1952-1990
    1 BEYOND LIBERATION: STUDENTS, SPACE, AND THE STATE IN EAST PAKISTAN/BANGLADESH 1952-1990 A dissertation presented by Samantha M. R. Christiansen to The Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of History Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts September, 2012 2 BEYOND LIBERATION: STUDENTS, SPACE, AND THE STATE IN EAST PAKISTAN/BANGLADESH 1952-1990 by Samantha M. R. Christiansen ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate School of Northeastern University September, 2012 3 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the history of East Pakistan/Bangladesh’s student movements in the postcolonial period. The principal argument is that the major student mobilizations of Dhaka University are evidence of an active student engagement with shared symbols and rituals across time and that the campus space itself has served as the linchpin of this movement culture. The category of “student” developed into a distinct political class that was deeply tied to a concept of local place in the campus; however, the idea of “student” as a collective identity also provided a means of ideological engagement with a globally imagined community of “students.” Thus, this manuscript examines the case study of student mobilizations at Dhaka University in various geographic scales, demonstrating the levels of local, national and global as complementary and interdependent components of social movement culture. The project contributes to understandings of Pakistan and Bangladesh’s political and social history in the united and divided period, as well as provides a platform for analyzing the historical relationship between social movements and geography that is informative to a wide range of disciplines.

Organized as a sequel to the first conference, the Second International Conference on Genocide, Truth and Justice was held on the 30th and 31st of July, 2009 at the CIRDAP Auditorium, Dhaka. This conference, held in the wake of a changed political scenario and when voices are being raised demanding the Trials of the War Criminals of 1971, has acquired greater importance and significance now because the demand for the Trials has been hugely endorsed by the younger generation. The first conference dealt with genocide as a crime from different perspectives, whereas the second conference emphasized on the legal aspects and procedures of the War Trials with a view to assist the present elected government, which is committed to and has already taken initiatives to start the process of the Trials. During the two-day conference, important aspects and new insights to the Trials were voiced by the various legal experts, both from home and abroad. The foreign legal experts shared their invaluable views about trial processes based on their experiences of working in previous international tribunals.

  • Bangladesh Genocide and Justice with Special Focus on the Rohingya Persecution
    Call for Abstract Submission 6th International Conference on Bangladesh Genocide and Justice With Special Focus on the Rohingya Persecution 14-16 November 2019, Dhaka, Bangladesh Organized by Liberation War Museum Dhaka, Bangladesh Prologue Liberation War Museum (LWM) is going to organize the 6th International Conference on Bangladesh Genocide and Justice on 14-16 November 2019. In this regard, LWM invites scholarly articles from national and international academics, researchers, jurists, rights activists, artists and persons associated with the cause of justice for international crimes. During the conference, there will be a parallel event titled as ‘poster presentation’, exclusively for young students and early career researchers to present their ideas and begin critical discussion on the issues related to genocide and justice. The conference will be held at a time when Bangladesh along with the global community is preparing to observe next year the 50th Anniversary of 1971 Bangladesh Genocide. In this background, the aim of this conference is two-fold: firstly, to provide empirical as well as theoretical insight into the existing challenges to international justice institutions in dealing with the crime of genocide and other international crimes; and secondly, to propose different avenues for strengthening transitional justice mechanism (specially, international criminal justice system and reparatory justice policy) in the post-conflict scenario. Though the conference theme is broadly related to Bangladesh Genocide, the conference will give special focus, among others, on the issue of genocide against the Rohingyas in the North Rakhine State of Myanmar - the fact of which now demands for greater international action to ensure justice and dignified return of the Rohingya victims to their homeland.

  • Anti-Indian Factions in Bangladeshi Politics (1971 ‒ 2014): a Brief Survey
    ISSN: 2582 - 0427 (Online) Vol. 2, No. 2 A bi-lingual peer reviewed academic journal September, 2020 http://www.ensembledrms.in Article Type: Review Article Article Ref. No.: 200217119N1AYSA https://doi.org/10.37948/ensemble-2021-0202-a013 ANTI-INDIAN FACTIONS IN BANGLADESHI POLITICS (1971 – 2014): A BRIEF SURVEY Soham Das Gupta1 Abstract: India played an active role in the liberation war of Bangladesh in 1971. The relation between the two countries remained cordial in the initial years but it soon soured with the coup d’etat of 1975. This also marked the rise of the anti-Indian elements in the Bangladeshi politics. This article makes a brief survey of anti- Indian elements that has remained a part and parcel of the political fabric of Bangladesh since 1971. It also looks into the ways in which the anti-India stance has been instrumental in garnering popular support to hold on to political power. The article begins with the background of the creation of Bangladesh and India’s active role in it which was followed by the friendship treaty signed between the two countries. Then it moves to the changing scenario following the coup d’état of 1975 which marked the visible changes within the polity of Bangladesh. The nature of nationalism underwent change moving from secularism to a religious character which found expression in the policies of the state. The military rule most often found it convenient to use the anti-Indian stance in order to please the fundamentalist elements of the country in its bid to garner popular support.

  • Genocide in the Liberation War of Bangladesh: a Case Study on Charkowa Genocide
    Research on Humanities and Social Sciences www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-5766 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0484 (Online) Vol.11, No.6, 2021 Genocide in the Liberation War of Bangladesh: A Case Study on Charkowa Genocide Mohammad Abdul Baten Chowdhury Assistant Professor, Department of History & Civilization, University of Barishal, Barishal-8254, Bangladesh Md. Al-Amin* Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science, University of Barishal, Barishal-8254, Bangladesh Abstract The liberation war and the genocide of Bangladesh in 1971 are becoming the core research interest among genocide researchers, but the genocide in Charkowa has hardly been explored. As because of this, the current paper intended to explore the true history of the Charkowa genocide, where it found that on 20 August 1971 the Pakistani Army attacked the innocent people of Charkowa village and killed 16 people at the bank of Maragangi canal along with arson and looting of their homes and shops. The strategy was very obvious that it was a politicide type of genocide, where they wanted to destroy the support base of Mukti Bahini and the freedom fighters as well.
