BANGLADESH’S PERMANENT LIBERATION STRUGGLE: CONSTRUCTING AN INCLUSIVE DEMOCRATIC SOCIETY

– Professor Rehman Sobhan 

Over the last two decades we have witnessed noticeable improvements in the lives of the people ranging from reduction in income poverty, access to education and improvements in health status. Unfortunately, we have also witnessed the growth of inequalities, the widening of social disparities, malfunctions in our democratic process and the persistence of exclusionary forces within society which have frustrated the fuller utilization of those very energies that have been unleashed by our liberation.
