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. -
Accountability for the Crimes of the 1971 Bangladesh War of Liberation
Completing the Circle: Accountability for the Crimes of the 1971 Title Bangladesh War of Liberation Author(s) Linton, S Citation Criminal Law Forum, 2010, Volume 21, Number 2, p. 191-311 Issued Date 2010 URL http://hdl.handle.net/10722/124770 Rights Creative Commons: Attribution 3.0 Hong Kong License Criminal Law Forum Ó Springer 2010 DOI 10.1007/s10609-010-9119-8 SUZANNAH LINTON* COMPLETING THE CIRCLE: ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE CRIMES OF THE 1971 BANGLADESH WAR OF LIBERATION I INTRODUCTION There are many policy issues that need to be considered when a country and its people start to deal with horrors that are 39 years old. The trial process is a critical part of that, but it is not the only issue to deal with. It is essential for Bangladesh to develop a comprehensive, coherent and principled strategy for dealing with its past. It has not done that yet. The country is at a critical juncture, and it falls on the government to seize the opportunity to make the most of a process of accountability. Any trial process, especially of such a charged matter as the crimes of the liberation war, must meet international standards in order to have any legitimacy, honour the victims and provide some kind of redress to survivors. But that is not enough. After 38 years, the damage to the fabric of society is immense, and a properly conducted trial process opens a window of opportunity to repair some of the harm. The gov- ernment must respond appropriately. My purpose in this paper is not to address the important wider issues of how Bangladesh should deal with the legacies of its past. -

Bangladesh - Researched and Compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on Friday 24 & Tuesday 28 October 2014
Bangladesh - Researched and compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on Friday 24 & Tuesday 28 October 2014 Information on Jamaat-e-Islami including: general information; treatment by Awami League; party leaders between 2010 & 2014 The Jamaat-e-Islami party in an undated document states: “Jamaat e Islami is not a conventional religious, political, social or cultural party only. Jamaat performs as a spiritual party as spiritual life is important in Islam. Jamaat performs in political arena because Islamic law can’t be implemented without political force. Jamaat concentrates upon social service and social reform as strong emphasis has been given on social service and social reform in Islam. In this sense, Jamaat- e- Islami is a complete Islamic movement” (Jamaat-e-Islami (Undated) About Us). This document also notes: “To be associated with Jamaat: Firstly fill up the form of associate member Regularly attend in weekly meeting for attaining Islamic knowledge and character Attentively read tafsir (explanation) of Quran and Hadith, Islamic literature and news papers. Practice according to what knowledge you have gained and take firm decision not to do anything against your conscience. Be the member of Jamaat to perform the duty of deen efficiently” (ibid). A repot issued in 2014 by the Hindu American Foundation notes: “Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) Bangladesh is an offshoot of the Jamaat organization that was founded in undivided India in 1941 by Maulana Abul Ala Mauddudi. Jamaat drew its inspiration from the Deobandi school of Islam, known for promoting religious extremism in several countries in the region, and modeled itself after the Muslim Brotherhood.1 Separate branches were subsequently established in both Pakistan and Bangladesh (then East Pakistan), also known as Jamaat-e-Islami, following India’s partition. -

Chapter 2 Establishment of University of Dhaka in 1921. The University was established as compensation for the annulment of the 1905 Partition of Bengal. The partition had established East Bengal and Assam as a separate province, with Dhaka as its capital. However, the partition was abolished in 1911. It was established in 1921 as the first university in East Bengal. Following demands from Nawab Sir Khwaja Salimullah Bahadur and others, Viceroy Lord Harding proposed on 2 February 1912, that a new university should be established in this partition of Bengal. In 1913, public opinion was solicited before the university scheme was given its final shape, and the Secretary of State approved it in December 1913. -
