Bangladesh: a new nation in an old setting
Bangladesh: A New Nation in an Old Setting by Craig Baxter provides a comprehensive overview of Bangladesh's history, identity, and development from pre-colonial to post-independence times. Baxter chronicles Bengal's journey from Hindu and Buddhist times, through Muslim rule and British colonial rule, to its entry into Pakistan and finally to its independence as Bangladesh. He explores the socio-political conflict in Eastern Bangladesh during its time within Pakistan, the nation's journey, and the economic and social transformations that have befallen this young nation. The book also occasionally helps to explain Bangladesh's political ideals: democracy, secularism, socialism, and nationalism, and discusses its challenges and prospects for the future.
