Bangladesh: Secular Muslim State on the Brink. (2016)

Bangladesh: Secular Muslim State on the Brink. (2016) 541 pages.

Bangladesh is usually ignored, but it has been a success in recent decades in creating an industrializing, secular Muslim state with few resources other than human capital. Emerging from a war of independence that saw the first modern Jihad, Bangladesh was resolutely secular. However, recent years have seen a resurgence of Islamism and a growing terrorist threat, forcing a slow retreat from secularism. One volume. An annotated bibliography including analytical essay, abstracts and documents. (Al-Qaeda & Jihadi Movements Worldwide (AQJM) is a subset of Middle East Abstracts & Index (MAI). MAI Vols. 40G; AQJM Vols. 99.)

ISBN (PB): One volume: $450.
