Civil society in Bangladesh
vibrant but not vigilant /[electronic resource] :by Farhat Tasnim. - Singapore :Springer Singapore :2021. - xxvi, 187 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - New frontiers in regional science: Asian perspectives,v.462199-5974 ;. - New frontiers in regional science: Asian perspectives ;v.4..
Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. Conceptual Discourse -- Chapter 3. Civil Society in Comparative Perspective -- Chapter 4. Civil Society and Political Structures in Bangladesh -- Chapter 5. How Vigilant is the Vibrant Civil Society? -- Chapter 6. Politicized Civil Society -- Chapter 7. Conclusions.
This book is the first of its kind to offer an understanding, analysis, and prediction of the state of civil society in Bangladesh in relation to development and democracy. It is a research attempt to reveal the paradox found in developing countries like Bangladesh where there are numerous and active civil society organizations (CSOs) that have had almost no influence in consolidating democracy. This book, however, also qualifies the normative assumption on the positive relationship between civil society and democracy asserted by the mainstream neo-Tocquevillean School that has a profound influence on donor policies. Readers are introduced to civil society in Bangladesh from a broad perspective. Rather than confining the analysis to NGOs, chapters explore the origin, nature, and function of both modern and conventional CSOs, which helps to provide a more authentic understanding of the genuine state of civil society in relation to other actors in the political system. Combining survey data analyses and empirical observations with carefully chosen case studies, the book reveals that CSOs participate very actively in social services. This research also reveals that these highly active CSOs in the field of social development lack the necessary attributes for ensuring participation, proper interest articulation and monitoring of the state. Through systematic analysis, the book shows that political structures-and for Bangladesh, particularly political parties-along with vertical social relationships such as clientelism, patronage, nepotism, and corruption have contributed to a non-vigilant civil society in Bangladesh, although it often is spoken of in different terms. This book is highly recommended for researchers, students, and development practitioners interested in South Asia as well as in understanding the potentials and limitations of civil society in relation to development and democracy.
