Le travail de recherche mene dans cette these a consiste a effectuer une analyse profonde de la genese du communisme au bangladesh, de son evolution et de ses perspectives. Soumis a diverses contraintes avec des dynamiques souvent contradictoire, empruntes d'une specificite geographique, historique et socioculturelle, les mouvements marxistes du bangladesh presentent, a la fois, une certaine originalite mais aussi des points communs avec ceux de l'union sovietique et la chine populaire. Les contradictions entre courants ideologiques internes au marxisme du bangladesh, d'une part et entre influence des religions, capitalisme, feodalisme, nationalisme, regionalisme et communisme, d'autre part, se traduisent par un morcellement et une dispersion des forces marxistes. A cela s'ajoute l'origine bourgeoise d'un certain nombre de dirigeants affectant l'enracinement ideologique. Malgre tous ces problemes, il a subsiste un certain nombre de courants continuer a se battre pour la mise en oeuvre d'une veritable ideologie marxiste car la solution unique pour bangladesh, c'est la revolution sociale et le socialisme scientifique. Selon l'histoire de l'humanite, il se revele que seul le communisme peut etre un recours contre l'exploitation de l'homme par l'homme

Streszczenie:
Climate change is now an issue of critical concern throughout the world. In 2014, the Fifth Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change proclaimed that the 21st century will pose some of the most acute challenges due to the accelerating impacts of climate change. Bangladesh, a South Asian developing country, is considered the sixth most vulnerable nation in the world due to its geographical settings (GCRI, 2015). The country faces extreme climatic events including sea level rise, salt water intrusion into arable lands, and the increased risk of severe storms, cyclones, floods, flash floods and drought in coming decades (IPCC, 2014; BCCSAP, 2009). The nexus between poverty and climate change is also a major concern, especially in a country like Bangladesh where lack of resources is a significant problem in both rural and urban areas. Therefore, climate vulnerability in Bangladesh is strongly associated with poverty, which in turn shapes its adaptation capacity. Climate change affects a wide range of communities in Bangladesh such as peoplew living in coastal zones, drought prone areas, settlers on unstable slopes and climate refugees in urban slums. However, among those affected, women are more vulnerable than men to climate change impacts, as is evident from the history of climate-induced disasters in the country. In Bangladesh, climate change increases women’s socio-economic vulnerabilities by directly impacting on their families’ food security, water consumption and traditional livelihood. According to Jahan (2008), any type of environmental degradation causes more suffering to women because their family’s survival, for which they are responsible, depends directly on the natural resource base. In the quest for a new livelihood, men migrate while women are often left behind to support their families and households. Thus women have had to develop a wide range of coping and resilience strategies in order to survive climate change impacts, and they have developed strategies and knowledge that can be particularly useful in establishing successful climate adaptation programs.

Streszczenie:
L'importance de l'intérêt accordé à la dimension sanitaire réside tout d'abord dans la détermination des conditions de vie des populations, et constitue ainsi un droit social fondamental. Elle réside également dans la place qu'elle occupe dans le processus de développement en ce qu'elle constitue un préalable indispensable pour rompre le cercle vicieux de la pauvreté. Il nous parut donc important de porter une attention particulière sur les tenants et les aboutissements des investissements sanitaires dans un pays où les taux de malnutrition sont des plus alarmants, le Bangladesh.
Les analyse proposées reposent sur deux enquêtes ménages : The Demographic and Health Survey, DHS, 2000 et The Matlab Health and Socioeconomic Survey ,MHSS, 1996, conduites toutes deux au Bangladesh. La seconde enquête a été réalisée au Matlab, une zone rurale du Bangladesh.
Notre travail de recherche s'oriente dans trois directions auxquelles correspondent les trois parties de cette thèse. Nous nous sommes interrogés dans une première partie sur ce qui détermine la santé des enfants par l'étude des facteurs explicatifs de la santé des enfants. Même si la littérature empirique correspondante est abondante, il n'existe pas de réel consensus sur les déterminants socioéconomiques du statut nutritionnel des enfants.
Ensuite et dans une deuxième partie, nous nous sommes intéressés à l'étude de l'impact de ces conditions nutritionnelles et sanitaires sur la formation du capital éducatif des enfants au Bangladesh : en particulier nous avons cherché à évaluer empiriquement les effets de la santé sur la réussite ou la progression scolaire, sur les retards à l'entrée au système éducatif et l'âge à la sortie et enfin sur le niveau d'étude optimal atteint.
L'analyse conduite dans cette partie nous a permis de perfectionner les méthodes d'estimations usuelles en redressant les principaux biais récurrents dans la littérature empirique à savoir le biais d'endogénéité de la santé et le biais de sélectivité des données. En le faisant, les résultats font apparaître, que le statut nutritionnel des enfants, exprimé par la taille pour âge, joue un rôle de premier plan dans la hausse de la participation scolaire et la baisse du retard de scolarisation étant donné l'âge. L'influence de la malnutrition est robuste même si l'on contrôle pour les caractéristiques familiales non observées par des procédures d'estimation à effets fixes. Nous estimons qu'une augmentation d'un écart type dans l'indice taille pour âge réduirait le retard potentiel de scolarisation de 0.343 années et qu'une amélioration d'un écart type dans la mesure de malnutrition chronique (taille pour âge) entraînerait un retard à l'entrée d'approximativement deux années. Par ailleurs, une durée moyenne de trois années de retard contribuerait à réduire la richesse totale de l'individu d'environ 23%.
Parce qu'un état de santé défavorable peut ne pas constituer le seul frein à l'investissement des parents dans la scolarisation de leurs enfants, nous accordons une attention particulière à l'étude des contraintes de l'offre d'éducation. En effet, les coûts de scolarisations directs et indirects représentent des arguments de dissuasion non négligeables. Nous mettons en œuvre les procédures économétriques adéquates pour estimer les déterminants du niveau optimal d'étude atteint et la probabilité d'avoir déjà été scolarisé, et qui contrôlent simultanément les problèmes d'endogénéité, de censure à droite des données et la nature discrète de la variable dépendante. D'une façon très synthétique, nous montrons que les parents prennent en compte l'ensemble des coûts de scolarisation (croissants) tout au long des cycles scolaires pour décider de l'investissement actuel dans l'éducation primaire de leurs enfants. Cette affirmation nous conduit à envisager une réallocation des dépenses publiques d'éducation entre les secteurs primaires et secondaires afin de réduire l'abandon scolaire précoce.

This study is primarily concerned with the theory of Islamic banking and its practice in Bangladesh, and shari’ah and its four sources forming the basis of Islamic banking are discussed at length. The research seeks to: analyse the theoretical foundations of Islamic baking and practice in Bangladesh; examine areas of similarity and differences between the structure and practices of Islamic banking and conventional banks; and identify the problems, challenges and prospects of Islamic banking in Bangladesh. The dissertation examines primary and secondary sources and draws on fieldwork in Bangladesh and the author’s personal experiences. The study undertaken shows that over the years there has been an expansion of Islamic banking in Bangladesh. Islamic banks are competing successfully with their conventional counterparts in an environment where rules, regulations and regulatory bodies are designed to facilitate banking based on interest. At the same time it has become apparent that the profit and loss sharing framework, which is one of the cardinal principles of Islamic banking, has yet to take deep root. The current profitability of Islamic banks is often maintained by products and services, which on closer analysis resemble broadly the products of conventional banking. It is thus suggested that more in depth research should be undertaken by Islamic bankers and scholars to study products and services of conventional banking with a view to adapting them successfully to the tenets of shari’ah.

This study of Fertility Differentials in Bangladesh is based on a subset of data obtained from the 1983 Bangladesh Contraceptive Prevalence Survey. The focus of the study is to identify the variables that significantly affect the cumulative fertility of women in Bangladesh and to examine differentials in fertility.Path analysis has been used for analyzing the data of this thesis. Differentials in fertility are examined in terms of selected demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the ever married women and their husbands.The study shows that age of women has the highest effect on number of children ever born. Religion has positive and significant direct effects on fertility. Education of women has significant negative effects on fertility. Employment status of women effect fertility negatively in rural Bangladesh. The results of this study also suggest that high fertlity in Bangladesh will persist if immediate action is not taken to halt it.

Streszczenie:
This thesis examines farm-level efficiency of rice farmers in the High Barind region of Bangladesh by estimating technical, allocative and economic efficiency using farm level cross section survey data. Two contrasting methods for measuring efficiency are applied: the stochastic econometric frontier and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). These measures are used to investigate the factors associated with technical, allocative and economic inefficiency. First, technical efficiency is computed by estimating the translog stochastic frontier in which technical inefficiency effects are modelled as a function of socioeconomic, infrastructure and environmental degradation factors in a single stage estimation technique using maximum likelihood method. Technical and scale efficiency are calculated by solving output- and input-oriented constant returns to scale (CRS) and variable returns to scale (VRS) DEA frontiers. A Tobit model is used to evaluate factors associated with technical and scale inefficiency from both input-oriented and output-oriented CRS and VRS frontiers. Same factors are analyzed as in the translog stochastic frontier. The translog stochastic frontier results show that farm households are, on average, 79 per cent technically efficient. The output-oriented DEA frontier results show that the average technical efficiency estimates are 79 and 86 per cent under CRS and VRS assumptions and the average scale efficiency is 92 per cent. The average values for technical efficiency measures and scale efficiency from the input-oriented CRS and VRS frontiers are 79, 85 and 93 per cent respectively. The translog stochastic frontier exhibits decreasing returns to scale, whereas the DEA frontier exhibits decreasing, constant and increasing returns to scale. The technical inefficiency effects model in the translog stochastic frontier and Tobit analysis for DEA frontier show that irrigation infrastructure and environmental degradation are significant factors in determining technical inefficiency. We then measure technical, allocative and economic efficiency by estimating the Cobb- Douglas stochastic frontier following the Kopp and Diewert cost decomposition technique and by running input-oriented CRS and VRS DEA frontier models. We estimate the Tobit model to analyze the factors associated with technical, allocative and economic inefficiency from the DEA frontiers. In addition, we compare the results obtained from both the Cobb- Douglas stochastic frontier and DEA frontiers. The results from the Cobb-Douglas stochastic frontier shows that the average technical, allocative and economic efficiency of farm households are 80, 77, and 61 per cent respectively. The input-oriented CRS frontier results show that farm households have, on average, 86, 91 and 78 per cent technical, allocative and economic efficiency and the corresponding VRS frontier shows that farm households are, on average, 91, 87 and 79 per cent technically, allocatively and economically efficient. An evaluation of factors associated with technical, allocative and economic inefficiency from both the Cobb-Douglas stochastic frontier and DEA frontier reveals that irrigation infrastructure and environmental degradation are the most statistically significant factors affecting technical, allocative and economic inefficiency. This implies that diesel-operated pumps and environmental degradation are not only reducing output from given inputs but are also causing sub-optimal cost-minimizing input decisions. Assessing efficiency suggests that there is a considerable amount of inefficiency among farm households and there is room for enhancing rice production through the improvement of technical, allocative and economic efficiency without resort to technical improvements. Farm households could reduce their variable production costs, on average, between 21 - 31 per cent if they could utilize their inputs in a technically and allocatively efficient manner. An evaluation of factors associated with inefficiency concludes that government electrification programmes which convert diesel pumps into electricity-operated pumps for irrigation in rural areas and policies which lead to reduced environmental degradation would reduce inefficiency, thereby increasing rice production and the welfare of farm households.

Streszczenie:
This is an original dissertation on Mazar (Sufi shrine) culture in Bangladesh, emphasising its socio-religious dimensions. Mazar culture is a dominating force in Bangladeshi culture. It is comprised of history, myths, mystical powers, social roles and religious significance. Currently, Mazar culture is an issue of religious debate between the Sufi (Muslim saints) and non-Sufi traditions in Bangladesh. Controversy centres on the religious validity of devotional intensity with regard to veneration of Sufis and their Mazars, the two key factors of Mazar culture. In this regard, the unlettered Baul Fakirs (mystic singers belonging to Sufi tradition) have received prominence for violating the Shariat and their oral discourses on socio-religious issues. This thesis notes that the Mazar culture of Bangladesh inherits the cultural traits of immigrant Sufis who converted many indigenous non-Muslims to Islam in the medieval period. To establish a new tradition, the Sufis illustrated Quranic declarations about the super human power of the Auliya (sages), alive or departed. History reveals that Sanatan (indigenous) esotericism had semblances with Islamic mysticism. The Sufis took advantage of this by mingling the two cultures and projecting miraculous power, which made them the object of veneration similar to the earlier prevalent Guru Bhakti (veneration). It is also observed that the spirit of Sufi mysticism is still manifest widely in Bengali culture. Diverse Sufi teachings gave birth to the traditions of Shariati (eso-exoteric) Pirs, or Ulama (learned), and the Marifati (esoteric) Pirs or mystic Baul Fakirs. These two groups have different views of Mazar veneration. They have produced an unending polemical discourse between them in regard with the illustrative approaches to Mazar veneration. Moreover, "The Tablig Jamaat", a preaching society and reformist group hostile to some aspects of Islamic mysticism, has aggravated the situation. The Jamaat is mainly concerned with the Shariat (outward Islamic law) and regards traditional Mazar culture as leading to Shirk (associating God with phenomena) and Bidaat (innovation). Both heresies according to orthodox Islam. Finally, evidently in recent years, many corporate bodies and elites from different social strata within Bangladesh have supported Baul Fakirs and Mazar culture in various ways, including financial and political aid. This support has strengthened the credibility of Mazar culture despite opposition and its modernising context.

Streszczenie:
This thesis explores the factors affecting the aspirations for, and the perceptions of acceptability and feasibility of business-ownership as an economic/career option by middle-income, educated urban women in Bangladesh. In response to the world-wide growth of women's entrepreneurship, there has been increased attention given to women's businesses, both from a practical development perspective and a research point of view. The group of women who has attracted researchers attention in the developed economies is educated, with access to resources and contact networks and therefore in principle, capable of starting up more significant businesses. The corresponding category of women in the developing countries, however, has received little attention either from the development planners or from the academic researchers. In Bangladesh, since the existence of middle-income, educated urban women in business appear to be small compared to that of un/less educated, poor, rural women in income-generating type of enterprises, the women business-owners have not only been unrecognised in statistics and policy documents, but also in academic research. In order to fill this research gap, and to identify some of the possible reasons for the relative paucity of women business-owners in Bangladesh, this thesis addresses the research question, "Is Entrepreneurship/Business-Ownership an Attractive/Desirable, Acceptable and Feasible Option for Middle-Income Educated Urban Women in Bangladesh". To address the research issues about business-ownership by middle-income, educated urban women in Bangladesh, a conceptual framework was developed incorporating the major factors affecting the aspirations, the acceptability and the feasibility of business-ownership as well as those influencing the process of business start-up. This study has examined the research issues based on the data collected through interviews with 154 potential and 75 actual women business-owners, and 10 CEOs of support agencies in the Dhaka city, which has the highest concentration of middle-income, educated urban population, and is the heart of all commercial activities. Overall, the findings of the study indicate that it is the "family roles" or the "gender roles" and not family entrepreneurial role models that influence the aspirations of women to set-up their own businesses in Bangladesh. The study also indicates that 'gender', demographics of the women concerned, and the type of business are the key explanatory factors determining the acceptability of business-ownership. It further shows that years of formal education, work experience, socio-economic class, network and supporters, and the type of business influence the feasibility of business ownership as an economic option for women in the context of Bangladesh. The findings highlight negative social attitude towards women in business, lack of security and freedom of mobility, and exposure of role models by media and promotional agencies as some of the major hindrances to women's business-ownership. This thesis demonstrates that women entrepreneurs in developing countries are not a homogenous group, that the aspirations, the acceptability and the feasibility of business-ownership by women are highly interactive, and that business-ownership by women is a combination of motivation, personal characteristics as well as environmental factors. In particular, it highlights that 'gender' definitely plays a role not only in enabling or hindering women in starting own business, but also in women's choice of business in the developing country context, as opposed to studies on women entrepreneurs in Western countries, which present conflicting results about the extent to which gender is an issue in women's business-ownership. This study emphasises the importance ofpolicy and legislative initiatives for bringing about the needed change in the environment in order to augment women's business-ownership. In doing so, the implications of the research are that efforts should be made to encourage wide spread media exposure of role models, ideas for product and market development, and gender sensitivity training for the personnel of agencies working for the promotion of entrepreneurship.

Streszczenie:
This dissertation is a study of the dynamics and direction of contemporary Islamic activism. It examines why some Muslims turn to Islamic activism and what determines the direction of this movement. It focuses on the Jamaat-e-Islami of Bangladesh, one of the most influential Islamic activist movements in South Asia. The study particularly explores the factors that contributed to the rise of the Jamaat-e-Islami in Bangladesh, and the subsequent transformation of this movement. The basic premise of this study is that the appeal of the contemporary Islamic activism is primarily religious, but wherever and whenever it participates in a democratic system, moderation is critical to its wider appeal and political success. By examining the historical roots, ideological discourse, organizational mechanism and the strategy of the Jamaat-e-Islami based on both primary and secondary source materials, the study uncovers that while at the core of this movement is a religious reawakening and rhetoric that were generated by new kind of Islamic discourses and sustained by a well-knit organizational network, this awakening being the result of one particular reading of Islam has attracted only a limited number of adherents. Having failed to win the hearts and minds of the majority as reflected in repeated electoral showings, the Jamaat has turned to redefine its ideology and socio-political agenda by adopting a “pragmatic” and relatively “liberal” approach in the political arena. While it is still experiencing dilemmas in reconciling and re-interpreting much of its agenda, the transformation the party has gone through in Bangladesh is significant, for it demonstrates its flexible character and a trend toward further moderation. Empirical findings of this study have wider theoretical implications. First, contemporary Islamic movements are not necessarily fundamentalist, reactive or radical, as they are often portrayed in the literature of this subject. In contrast, this study finds that while a degree of nostalgia is at work in Islamic activism in that it often refers back to the early history of Islam, it nevertheless embraces modernity. Second, this study unveils the diverse character of the Islamic activism that can be radical as well as moderate. It also shows that the character of an Islamic movement is shaped not just by a particular reading of Islam, but also by the context in which it operates. In other words, the nature of contemporary Islamic activism is largely contextual. Third, the ideological position and character of Islamic movements are still evolving. Fourth (and finally), pluralist democracy helps moderate the character of an Islamic movement, especially when the latter becomes the part of this process.

Government authority can, for public benefit purpose, take private ownership of land by compulsory purchase. Primary aim of this study is how to protect private land owners rights in spite of governments power of acquiring land. Bangladesh, as for details study, is a most densely populated country in the World. International best standards of practicing guidelines by FAO-UN, FIG and WB as well as other countries practice have reviewed from different perspectives. From theory, early stage negotiations, market value of property plus other damages, opportunity of involvement of all parties, protection of agricultural land , removal services all of those are the thorny of legal challenges to adopt into a new legislation in Bangladesh. Empirically, field study has conducted by way of interviewing from selected different projects in Bangladesh including largest project Padma Multiple Bridge. Huge destitute of land, unplanned city expansion, unsustainable development of infrastructure and environmental damage are remained as significant issues of sustainable development of land management. Analysis shows that Bangladesh has been losing 1% of agriculture land which related to the national employment and food production. 100% of the affected people wants to resettlement by the authority. There is clearly misusing of legal rights by the government authority: firstly, by using inequitable Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance, 1982; no protection has been giving for religious place and graveyard under Antiquities Act, and Article 42(2) of Constitution also imposing unfair curtailment of rights for getting fair compensation. Finally, some recommendations have given for enacting a new legislation including planning permission, extended notice period, public meeting and review, agricultural land exempted, resettlement, valuation by valuers, in time compensation payment and right to Appeal.

Drawing on both qualitative and quantitative data, the thesis describes and explains both the current patterns of natural protection against pregnancy and the use of modern contraception in the period following childbirth in two populations, one rural and one urban, in Bangladesh. First, quantitative data gathered through demographic surveillance systems of the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh are used to explore the patterns and differentials in breastfeeding, postpartum amenorrhoea and risk of pregnancy in the months following birth in the two study populations. Next, the surveillance data are used to describe the patterns of adoption of contraception in relation to time postpartum, breastfeeding and menstrual status for the two study populations. Extensive use is made of life table methods, hazard models and logistic regression techniques in these analyses. Qualitative data gathered through in-depth interviews with users of contraception are then used to identify key themes of understanding that influence women's behaviour, including contraceptive uptake, in the period following childbirth. The current knowledge, attitudes and practices of family planning providers in the two study populations are next described using qualitative data collected through a series of in-depth interviews and group discussions. Findings from the quantitative and qualitative analyses are then integrated in order firstly, to explain the current patterns and recent trends in contraceptive use and lactational protection against pregnancy following childbirth, and secondly to explore their potential implications for birth intervals and fertility. Finally, important issues are identified and recommendations made for improvements to postpartum family planning programme approaches in Bangladesh.

Like many developing economies, the construction industry in Bangladesh is vital to its economic development and growth. However, the Bangladeshi construction industry is plagued by unethical practices, sub-standard construction work, and the inability of local contractors to partake in internationally funded (lucrative) contracts (as general contractors). A contractor prequalification process is proposed to address the problems facing the industry. In this work, an extensive literature review was used in combination with research surveys, statistical analyses of the literature and survey results, and the analytical hierarchy process to develop sets of factors and criteria pertinent to contractor prequalification/selection. A five-level framework involving regulatory verification, project-specific validation, performance evaluation, state-of-the-art best practices, and capacity assessment was developed to address the problem. This research developed innovative practices that could be used for the prequalification of contractors in Bangladesh and a method for implementing a recommended system for evaluating and prequalifying contractors.

Corruption has been a severe problem in Bangladesh since the country’s independence. The response in recent years has been massive anti-corruption efforts involving both the Bangladesh government and non-governmental stakeholders. These efforts have focused on the transplantation of institutions in accordance with the prescriptions and models of donor agencies. Organizations in Bangladesh have attempted to gain legitimacy by copying the successful structures and operational models of similar organizations in other countries. This phenomenon can be characterized as institutional isomorphism. Institutionalists argue that this type of isomorphism has been successful in combating corruption in various countries. Examples of the implementation of this isomorphic strategy in Bangladesh include introducing the National Integrity Strategy (NI-Strategy), strengthening the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) and involving citizens in anti-corruption efforts through community-based organizations (CBOs). The research, reported in this thesis, has examined the effectiveness of this isomorphic approach to combating corruption in Bangladesh, drawing on an original nation-wide mass survey, interviews with members of the elite, and analysis of official documents and processes. The study found that the isomorphic approach to combating corruption in Bangladesh has had very limited success against the backdrop of massive expenditure and efforts. These efforts have mainly created an ‘isomorphic mimicry’ of successful anti-corruption strategies but, in Bangladesh, these have mostly remained ceremonial. In other words, they look good on paper but lack proper implementation. The study suggests that the reasons for this failure can be divided into two groups. The first group of four reasons is more general and focuses on pervasive issues of structure as well as agency, namely: (1) patronage-based politics; (2) the existence of ‘iron triangles’ of political, bureaucratic and business elites; (3) a lack of strong political will among government leaders; and (4) the ability of policy makers to deploy a range of strategies to blunt anti-corruption initiatives. The second group comprises micro-level problems, such as the lack of resourcing for institutions, within each element of the dominant anti-corruption strategies. In response to the failure of isomorphism in Bangladesh’s efforts towards integrity, this study suggests an alternative potential avenue for anti-corruption efforts through CBOs that can mobilize or harness spontaneous public participation. This approach differs from donor-assisted government and non-governmental community engagement activities. Drawing on several examples, the study shows that spontaneous participation through CBOs and other forms of activity involving various stakeholders is creating a ‘silent movement’ against corruption in Bangladesh, based on a problem-driven approach in the local context. With spontaneous participation, CBOs could play a potential role through awareness and advocacy to break the societal acceptance of corruption in Bangladesh. Finally, the study argues that, while obstacles to such a spontaneous participation approach are apparent, they might be addressed by coordination between CBOs to form a new foundation for the national integrity system of Bangladesh.

In this era of international supply chains where Least Developed Countries (LDCs) are exporting to Developed Countries (DCs), concerns about economic growth that is environmentally benign has meant that LDC factories are taking environmental upgrading measures to meet standards set by DC customers. This thesis looks at the applicability of ecological modernisation theory (EMT) to this situation by examining the Bangladeshi readymade garments (RMG) sector that is part of the global apparel value chain. EMT suggests that economic growth can continue while providing environmental protection in the long run due to proactive environmental actions by the market actors, civil society and the nation state. This thesis tests the tenets of EMT by looking at the apparel value chain in three parts (management networks within firms, economic networks of the supply chain, and policy networks) and then as a whole (EM network). Evidence from Bangladeshi garment factories (corporate culture, organisational change and environmental learning) suggests significant problems: factories are compliant with buyer codes only on paper and not in reality. Firms have a mixture of proactive and reactive greening measures and enjoy only an indirect competitive advantage from greening. The absence of "win win" gains can be pinned to buyer behaviour along the chains, coupled with their reluctance for closer collaboration and weak green customer pressures for clothing sourced in Bangladesh. Policymaking by the state has also been problematic: issue cognition and conflict, closed hierarchical networks, mistrust, political bargaining and prioritising national economic interests hampered the EM vision of the modern nation state. Overall, this thesis questions the adequacy of EMT for investing international supply chains. EMT needs to reconceptualise itself with hierarchical relationship realities, LDC cultural contexts, LDC growth trajectories, actor heterogeneity, "no win" situations, and the suitability of EM tools.

Résumé en français

Le sujet de notre thèse de doctorat consiste en l’analyse du corpus céramique issu des fouilles de Mazar, une zone située sur le Rempart Sud du site de Mahasthangarh au Bangladesh, qui se sont déroulées de 2001 à 2011. Toutefois le matériel étudié comprend la poterie découverte de 2006 à 2011.

Trois périodes chronologiques ont été individualisées sur base de datations au C14, de structures construites et de monnaies :les niveaux anciens de l’époque Maurya, les niveaux intermédiaires des époques Shunga, Kouchane et Gupta et les niveaux supérieurs de l’époque post-Gupta à la conquête musulmane au début du 13ème siècle, aussi appelée Early Medieval Period.

Les objectifs consistaient à établir une chrono-typologie pour chacune des trois périodes de manière à mettre en évidence les variations de productions et de formes d’une époque à l’autre et de comparer les résultats de Mahasthangarh avec ceux d’autres sites de la région du Bengale.

Pour atteindre le premier objectif, les critères retenus sont directement liés au principe de la chaîne opératoire qui consiste à identifier, au travers de l’analyse du tesson, les étapes qui ont conduit au résultat final (sélection et préparation de la matière, façonnage, finition et décoration, cuisson).

Les résultats de l’analyse relative aux niveaux anciens ont montré que le corpus céramique était composé de divers groupes de Red Wares dont les différences résident dans la finesse de la pâte et le traitement des surfaces, de céramiques grises et de Fine Black Slipped Ware identifiées par les anciens céramologues à de la Northern Black Polished Ware. Au sein de ce dernier groupe, certains tessons de fond et de panse arborent un décor ‘rouletté’. L’assemblage présente des productions et des formes similaires au reste du Bengale. Le matériel des niveaux intermédiaires est trop fragmentaire pour que l’on puisse en tirer des conclusions sur un assemblage typique. Nous retrouvons les mêmes productions que lors des niveaux précédents avec cependant une diminution de la céramique fine.

En revanche, les niveaux supérieurs témoignent de l’établissement progressif aux alentours des 6ème et 7ème siècles d’un nouveau faciès céramique composé de céramiques communes (Medium Red, Red-Buff, Grey Wares) dont le répertoire formel est presque identique, et de céramiques à pâte plus fine et avec un engobe de couleur rouge ou gris-brun. L’assemblage évolue très peu au cours de la période et c’est seulement au tournant des 12ème-13ème siècles que nous assistons à une augmentation de la production des céramiques fines engobées. Les niveaux supérieurs ont également livré des tessons de céramique à glaçure turquoise et de la céramique chinoise (céladon des ateliers de Longquan et porcelaine des ateliers de Jingzhen et Dehua) datés de la même période. La comparaison avec les autres sites du Bengale ont démontré que la céramique de l’Early Medieval Period présentait des caractéristiques communes au niveau des techniques de fabrication (assemblages d’éléments façonnés séparément) et de décoration (incision, application, estampage), tout comme pour le répertoire morphologique au sein duquel les mêmes catégories formelles ont été identifiées. Toutefois, certaines différences d’ordre stylistique entre les productions nous permettent d’affirmer que des faciès locaux existaient. /

Summary in English

The subject of my PhD comprises the analysis of the corpus of pottery discovered during the excavations in Mazar, an area on the southern Rampart Mahasthangarh site in Bangladesh, which took place from 2001 to 2011. However, the studied material includes pottery discovered from 2006 to 2011.

Three time periods were individualized based on C14 dates, on the built structures and on the coins: former levels of the Maurya period, the intermediate levels of Shunga, Kushan and Gupta periods and superior levels of the post-Gupta period to the Muslim conquest which took place in the early 13th century, a period also called Early Medieval Period.

The goals were to create a chrono-typology for each of three periods in order to highlight the variations of wares and forms from one period to another and to compare the results of Mahasthangarh with other sites in the Bengal region.

To achieve the first objective, the criteria are directly related to the principle of the operating chain of identifying, through the analysis of the shard, the steps that led to the final product (selection and preparation of the material, shaping, finishing and decoration, cooking).

The results of the analysis relating to former levels (Maurya period) showed that the ceramic corpus was composed of various groups of Red Wares whose differences lie in the fineness of the clay and surface treatment, of Grey Wares and of Fine Black Slipped Ware identified by some ceramologists in the Northern Black Polished Ware. Within this latter group some body-shards and bottom-shards wear a “chattered” decoration. The assemblage includes same kind of wares and shapes than the rest of Bengal. The material of intermediate levels is too fragmented so that we can draw conclusions on a typical assemblage. We find the same pottery as in previous levels but with a reduction in the fine ceramics.

On the other hand, superior levels testify to the gradual establishment of a new ceramic facies, around the 6th and 7th centuries, which is composed of common pottery (Medium Red Ware, Red-Buff Ware, Grey Ware) with almost same shapes, and pottery made with finer clay and a red or brown-grey slip. The assemblage changes very little during the period and it is only at the turn of the 12th to 13th centuries that we are seeing an increase in production of fine slipped wares. The higher levels have also delivered turquoise glazed ware and Chinese ceramic shards (celadon from the Longquan workshop and porcelain from Jingzhen and Dehua workshops) dated to the same period. Comparisons with other sites of Bengal have shown that the ceramic of Early Medieval Period had common characteristics in terms of manufacturing techniques (joining of several elements shaped separately) and decoration (incision, application, embossing), as for morphological répertoire in which the same formal categories were identified. However, some differences between the stylistic productions allow us to state that local facies existed.

The coast of Bangladesh, comprising the complex delta of the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna river system has immense resources for development. In the concept of present development efforts, this zone is among the most neglected in Bangladesh. It is very often affected by natural calamities and the situation is further aggravated by some man-made hazards, which cause heavy casualties in human lives, cattle, in reducing the size of the coastal areas and in severe damage of properties worth billions of dollars. This thesis envisages looking into the particular issue of non-farm employment. This is more important in an economy in which the land-person ratio is continuously on the decrease and dissemination of intensive crop culture has limitations. This study is exploratory in nature and uses both quantitative and qualitative methods, employing survey interviews for 80 households, 20 key informant interviews and a case study on an organization in order to assess the dynamics and prospects of non-farm employment in the coastal regions of Bangladesh. Findings of the study indicate that practically all of the non-farm field of the entire coastal belt is not yet a government priority. As such, there is need for some persuasive work in formulating some policies to develop sustainable harvests from the abundant maritime resources of the area. This will create provision for non-farm employment as well as producing a vast quantity of exportable commodities for the national well-being. It is expected that it will benefit the people of the area in particular and the entire country in general.

This thesis explores urban poverty and the adaptations of the urban poor in the slums of the megacity of Dhaka, Bangladesh. It seeks to make a contribution to understanding and analysis of the phenomenon of rapid mass urbanisation in the Third World and its social consequences, the formation of huge urban slums and new forms of urban poverty. Its focus is the analysis of poverty which has been overwhelmingly dominated by economic approaches to the neglect of the social questions arising from poverty. This thesis approaches these social questions through an ???urban livelihood framework???, arguing that this provides a more comprehensive framework to conceptualise poverty through its inclusion of both material and non-material dimensions. The study is based on primary data collected from slums in Dhaka City. Five hundred poor households were surveyed using a structured questionnaire to investigate the economic activities, expenditure and consumption, access to housing and land, family and social networking and cultural and political integration. The survey data was supplemented by qualitative data collected through fifteen in-depth interviews with poor households. The thesis found that poverty in the slums of Dhaka City was most strongly influenced by recent migration from rural areas, household organisation, participation in the ???informal??? sector of the economy and access to housing and land. Almost half of the poor households in the study locations were identified as ???hardcore poor???, that is having insufficient income for their physical needs. The remainder were found to be ???absolute poor???, those who experienced poverty and vulnerability but varied in their levels of income and consumption. This level of poverty was also characterised by their social, cultural and political marginalisation. In summary, the urban poor remain very much dependent on their household and social networking, the main social capital they use to adapt to life in Dhaka City. Overall, the urban poor in this study experience the highest level of poverty and vulnerability in their everyday life. The thesis argues that the experience of poverty in the megacity of Dhaka for these households follows the pattern of urbanisation without development, the very opposite to their expectations and aspirations.

Streszczenie:
Increased domestic and international demand for aquatic foods have greatly enhanced aquaculture practices and production in Bangladesh, which is reflected in the national economy. However, the impacts of a fast growing aquaculture sector through the involvement of stakeholders, poorer sections throughout the value chain and broader rural livelihoods are largely underdeveloped and have frequently been ignored. The present study explores the impacts of dynamic aquaculture sector on stakeholders at production level and supply chain and test the hypothesis that aquaculture is enhancing rural livelihoods and benefiting the poor. Three aquaculture production systems in three areas of Bangladesh were selected for the study. These were prawn production in gher system in Jessore, pond fish culture in Mymensingh and rice-fish farming in Dinajpur. This selection allowed analysis both the impacts of domestic and export marketing of aquaculture products. Participatory research data collection tools; focus group discussions and participatory mapping were commonly used along with questionnaire surveys to ensure participation of stakeholders. Aquaculture, in general, found to have had significant impacts on rural livelihoods. The greatest effect of aquaculture on farming households were observed in income and consumption. Integrated aquaculture systems were the regular source of fish and vegetables and constitute more than half of the fish and vegetables consumed by farming households. While income from aquaculture was the highest among the several household income sources, the main cash crop differed between the systems studied. Prawn, fish and rice was the main cash earning crops for gher farming, fish farming and rice-fish farming respectively. Qualitative investigation suggested that aquaculture not only increased income through greater production volume, but also improved farmers’ assets through income diversification to farm and non-farm sources. The other important outcomes of aquaculture were the enhancement of social safety nets through increased sharing of inputs and labour among farmers. Commonly the aquaculture systems were found to be more intensive with an increasingly commercial attitude over the last ten years, which affected the intra-household labour distribution leading to a greater role for women in production management. While the three activities; fish feed preparation, feeding and growing vegetables performed by vast majority of women could be attributed to their inherent involvement with agriculture, hard physical work like harvesting ponds and pond construction were mostly carried out by the women from poor households as a strategy to reduce hired labour cost. The women’s’ increased involvement in aquaculture not only increased their overall workload, but also empowered them in household decision making to some extend. However, involvement in decision making was related to the level of involvement in production activities. The impacts of aquaculture spread beyond the farming households to the broader rural livelihoods. Wage labourers and fishers (harvesting teams) two of the poorest groups of people directly involved were benefited most over the last ten years. Intensification of aquaculture increased the demand for hired labour leading to a structural shift in the agricultural wage labour market in farming communities. About half of the agricultural labourers were found part-time employed in aquaculture activities in Jessore and Mymensingh. In Dinajpur intensification of rice cultivation had a much higher effect on the demand for labour than aquaculture. Increased employment in rural areas increased real labour wages by about one fifth over the last ten years and subsequently improved livelihood outcomes. Declining fish catch due to both decreased natural fish stocks and more restricted property rights, professional fishers benefited by diversifying their livelihoods into the aquaculture sector. While, many of the fishers permanently changed their profession to prawn marketing in Jessore, the rest were full-time or part-time employed in harvesting ponds and/or retailing fish in markets. Such diversification of income greatly reduced seasonal vulnerability and improved livelihood outcomes. The role of fish marketing, which is a critical institution in rural livelihoods, was found to facilitate the growth of the aquaculture sector. High demand of aquatic products and the diverse options of marketing fisheries enabled farmers to meet their initial requirements. More commercial operations of aquaculture increased farmers’ awareness and linkages to markets. However, typically the worse-off farmers were the slowest to capture new market opportunities, often due to their poor resources and human capital. Fish marketing was found to be run by the private sector and government provided the infrastructure facilities, except prawn processing plants, which were developed by private sector. While the fish market transactions were fairly efficient, markets facilities and infrastructure were commonly poor and need of government investment for improvement. A gradual growth of fish and markets in the rural areas was observed in the study; this was driven by the increased demand for fish through increased population and supply from aquaculture. The marketing intermediaries provided important services despite their small share of consumers’ price and ensured a fair share for farmers. The auctioneers provided a vital role in running the supply chain with investment and credits, which ensured fair competition in the pricing process. Marketing of aquatic products was not only a mechanism of product transaction, but also provided critical livelihoods for rural poor. On average about one hundred people, including retailers were involved in auction markets and eight people in prawn depots. Importantly the number of people in marketing was found to have increase over the years. Access for different groups of poor people to marketing jobs was found to be significant in rural livelihoods. The asset base and daily earning indicates that more than three quarters of the marketing intermediaries were poor; some of them were from poorest and low cast Hindu society. Greater flexibility of entry and exit to the jobs enabled the poorer sections to diversify their livelihoods, which enabled to cope with seasonal variability of opportunities and stable income. The marketing employment provided then increased livelihood welfare and social security. Finally, it can be concluded that the promotion of aquaculture not only increased much needed food availability but also generated critical livelihoods and marketing is not just a mechanism of product flow, but also providing livelihoods welfare to poorest sections of the society. The micro level findings of the study regarding impacts of aquaculture indicate that aquaculture production and marketing have significant impacts on enhancing rural livelihoods in Bangladesh.

This dissertation examines class and ethnicity in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) of Southeastern Bangladesh. The indigenous people of this region are now in a minority because of the influx of Bengalees. This study argues that ethnic conflicts, ethnicity or "tribalism" in the CHT emerged as consequences of British, Pakistani and Bengalee colonialism, modernization and development projects undertaken by the international development agencies; these factors changed the relations of production and were accompanied by militarization of the area and a destruction of the traditional mode of life. Ethnicity as an ideology has played a determinant role in the CHT rather than class, despite the fact that the CHT groups and the Bengalees are divided into several socio-economic levels. Here, class interests and class issues are undermined and overshadowed by the presence of ethnic antagonisms and an ideology of "tribalism" among Bengalees and the indigenous CHT peoples.

Global climate is changing continuously as a result of industrial revolution and rapid urbanisation in many countries of the world which has significant impacts on environment, socio-economic condition, physical and biological issues. Increase of global temperature, rainfall changes, sea level rise, occurrences of extreme weather events such as floods, cyclones, typhoons, droughts etc. are the major and direct consequences of climate change in the world (Pulhin et al., 2010, & Shaw et al., 2010). There are also many other indirect consequences of climate change such as increasing poverty, food production reduction, health nuisance, ecological imbalance, environmental degradation etc. which have adverse impacts on the society and people (Shaw et al., 2010). Considering these acute problems, people of the world are acting collectively to combat with the consequences of climate change. As for example, establishment of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), undertaking various global agreements and protocols, formulation of policies, plans etc. on climate change and disaster management are the reactions of global people to deal with climate change and climate induced natural disasters. Bangladesh is a low-laying riverine disaster prone and densely populated country with high rate of population growth. Every year she is facing various climate induced natural disasters. In addition, climate change aggravates the consequences of natural disasters and thus, Bangladesh is recognised as one of the most vulnerable countries in the world. The worst situation is facing by the people of coastal areas due to their limited access to endowed resources, high risks and vulnerabilities to climate change and disasters (ERD, 2008; Ali, 1999; & Thomolla et al.). But, the coastal areas are endowed with various resources such as mineral resources, fisheries, forestry, ports and tourism facilities etc. Over exploitation, climate change and disasters are destroying these natural resources, degrading environment and making people vulnerable to disastrous situations. Low economic development, extreme poverty, geographic location and climate make the country vulnerable to climate change and natural disasters. Moreover, Bangladesh is facing various challenges related to climate change mitigation and disaster risk reduction due to poor socio-economic condition, lack of integration, lack of incorporation of emergency plan in development activities, inefficient institutional frameworks, limited access to information, lack of scientific assessment method and tool, limited access to natural resources, no curriculum on natural hazards, funding/financial constraints (Pulhin et al., 2010). This research has been undertaken to evaluate readiness of the people to climate change adaptation and disasters risk reduction in the coastal areas of Bangladesh. The main objectives of this research are to investigate livelihoods condition of the people to tackle impacts of climate change and natural disasters, assess resilience of the community/people to climate change and natural disasters, evaluate existing institutional frameworks, policies, plans and strategies and formulate climate change adaptation strategies by reviewing strategies from international best practices. The main methods of conducting this study were desktop research; data collection through questionnaire survey and key informants interview; Data input in SPSS and Excel, processing and analysis; institutional frameworks, policies, programmes and strategies evaluation. A preliminary literature review was carried out to enrich theoretical background and understand the possible impacts of climate change and natural disasters, climate change mitigation and adaptation, and to formulate study goals and objectives. A comprehensive literature review was conducted and based on the literature review a conceptual framework of the study was developed. Socio-economic conditions such as population increase, GDP growth rate, literacy rate etc. and environmental condition such as GHGs emission, sea level rise, temperature increase etc. have been analysed to know climate change and disaster preparedness conditions of the people and severity of the impacts in Bangladesh. Impacts of climate change and disasters such as major disasters, population and GDP exposed to disasters, inundation risk, damages and losses etc. have been mentioned to comprehend the severity of the situations. Secondary data for this study was collected from different sources such as previous studies, census data, ministries and departments, World Bank, UN agencies etc. and performed the analysis. To know real world scenario a study area was selected and data related to socio-economic condition, status of preparedness of the people etc. were collected through household questionnaire survey, checklist, key informant interview, expert opinions. Data collected from questionnaire survey were analysed by SPSS and MS Excel. Based on the data collected from field survey disaster preparedness and resilience of the people to climate change and disasters have been evaluated and after evaluation it is found that people’s disaster preparedness and resilience to climate change and disasters are average or below average. Besides that, institutional frameworks and various policies, plans, strategies, programmes for disaster management, climate change mitigation and adaptation have been evaluated. Many countries of the world have recognised that regulatory and institutional frameworks of climate change and disaster management in Bangladesh is comprehensive and appropriate, and they have also enhanced disaster management capacity of the country. Related data and documents have been collected from various secondary sources and evaluated by qualitative analysis method. Policies, plans, strategies and programmes (i.e. National Plan for Disaster Management (NPDM) 2010-2015; National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA)-2005; Bangladesh Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan (BCCSAP)-2008 and Coastal Development Strategy (CDS)-2006) have been evaluated based on five evaluation criteria such as relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impacts and sustainability set by Development Assistance Committee (DAC) of Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to know their effectiveness to achieve their ultimate goals and objectives. Analysis of the institutional framework and policies, plans, programmes showed that they are comprehensive and able to achieve targeted goals and objectives. But, lack of proper integration and coordination, shortage of resources, lack of transparency and accountability are creating problems to achieve the desired outcomes. Based on drawbacks found from the analysis, recommendations on socio-economic development, coastal resources and environmental protection, developing disaster preparedness, climate change adaptation strategies and institutional regulatory framework have been provided to improve disaster preparedness and resilience of the people. After implementation of these recommendations in the study area or other parts of the country the following outcomes such as better livelihood, food security, balanced ecosystem, environmental protection, improved disaster preparedness, climate change mitigation and disaster risk reduction will be achieved.

Target Audience: The management of TeliaSonera is our main target audience. Also students from management, marketing and business administration are our secondary concern.

Problem Statement: “How suitable is Bangladesh telecom market for an internationalized telecom company (TeliaSonera), and what could be a preferable entry strategy for such market?”

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate Bangladesh telecom market in order to find out the potentiality of the market which could be considered by the company to think about starting a business there and also to determine a suitable entry strategy from the company depending on the factors have been investigated.

Methodology: The project is based on both primary and secondary information retrieved in connection with the theoretical framework. A qualitative approach of research and analysis has been considered to reach the desirable result.

Theoretical Framework: The theoretical framework has been created with Porter’s (1998) five forces and National Diamond together with factors that influence the international entry strategy described by Franklin R (1998)

Findings: While presenting the data, we have followed a structure. We have divided all our data in four parts. They are namely, The Focal Company Factors, Home country (Sweden) factors, the Focal country (Bangladesh) Factors, and the Focal country’s (Bangladesh) Telecom market factors. All data have been presented under the respective headings of these parts and also with some corresponding subheadings.

Analysis: The analysis is based on the result of a consolidated evaluation of relevant theory and empirical information collected accordingly. All the collected information has been observed through the gloss of theoretical framework and has been used for answering the problem statement.

Conclusion: After investigating the factors of Bangladesh telecom market, we can conclude that it will be a good idea for TeliaSonera to expand their business in Bangladesh as both the industry and the country has a lot of potential to offer. An Investment entry mode (Joint Venture) has been suggested. It is worth mentionable that this paper is a preliminary idea about the market to encourage TeliaSonera to expand in Bangladesh which reveals the opportunity for further research.

The main focus of the thesis is the extent to which, conceptually or in practice, public diplomacy can be an effective tool in the case of an emerging nation. During its emergence the new nation state of Bangladesh employed public diplomacy alongside traditional diplomacy. It was used to influence international and regional actors and to promote the image of Bangladesh in order to change the opinions of the global community. Public diplomacy assumed great importance in the late 20th century as a means of controlling the image of a country. It has been defined as "the promotion of the national interest of any country by informing, engaging, and influencing people throughout the world". In recent years it has been used to pursue particular foreign policy goals, to acquire economic or political assistance at times of national crisis and to influence world opinion during periods of national emergency. The present thesis explores the effectiveness of the concept of public diplomacy and its role in the emergence of the state of Bangladesh. The independence war of 1971 is analysed in the light of theoretical issues associated with the study of public diplomacy. The efforts of defecting Bengali diplomats to use the different tools of public diplomacy in order to influence world opinion are examined. It is argued that public diplomacy is more likely to be successful in a context where a democratic social and political environment exists. The study also recognises that, although it may be possible to alter public opinion, changing government policy might not always occur merely as a consequence of the use of public diplomacy.

Landslides are a common hazard in the Chittagong Hill Districts (CHD) of Bangladesh. The communities that live on dangerous hill slopes in CHD repeatedly experience landslide hazards during the monsoon season, with casualties, economic losses and property damage. Although landslides are hazard events triggered by a variety of environmental phenomena, vulnerability emerging from a social system is predominantly responsible for disasters. With this background, this study develops an understanding of the root-causes of community vulnerability to landslides in the CHD. To begin, two distinct groups of communities were identified, namely the urbanized hill communities and the indigenous hill communities. Seven urbanized and four indigenous communities were selected and compared by developing and applying mixed methods. Quantitative information from household-level questionnaires was associated with qualitative maps and diagrams from participatory rural appraisal surveys. A convergent parallel design and index based weighted average decision support model was applied, covering community-level vulnerability indicators for physical, social, economic, ecological, institutional and cultural aspects. The urbanized hill communities were found to be highly vulnerable to landslides, as they are attracted by city pull factors, deprived of social justice and involved in indiscriminate hill cutting for developing settlements. They fail to incorporate indigenous knowledge and are culturally less aware of how to deal with hazard extremes in the hilly environment. In contrast, the indigenous communities have a distinctive history and culture, inherited lifestyle, customs, beliefs and values, traditional housing pattern, land tenure and ownership, administrative system, and agricultural practice as a major livelihood. These unique characteristics are facilitating the indigenous communities to address the different dimensions of community vulnerability to landslides.

How did Britain perceive the extreme violence that led to the creation of Bangladesh, how did it respond and what factors shaped those perceptions and responses? This thesis seeks to answer these questions using British intelligence reports from 1971 and personal interviews with British diplomats, parliamentarians and government officials of the era. Reflecting both self-interest and genuine concern, British responses to the East Pakistan crisis that ultimately led to the birth of Bangladesh, provide insights into a markedly under-researched episode of nationalist conflict in a former British colony. The range of responses reflects the challenges that the multi-layered violence posed to external observers, and calls into question a widespread tendency to cast the violence as either civil war or genocide. Finally, they illustrate the ambiguities of this juncture in British history when, apparently ready to accept its secondary power status, Britain still sought with varying degrees of success to retain international stature, resulting in a dualistic foreign policy towards South Asia that combined reserve with cautious initiative. By documenting the ambiguities and challenging the relatively simplistic explanations we have of events to date, the thesis provides a deeper understanding of this under-examined yet controversial period in international history when composite violence was met with composite response.
