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 structuresand for Bangladesh, particularly political partiesalong 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. 001434082 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001434082 650_0 $$aCivil society$$zBangladesh. 001434082 650_0 $$aDemocracy$$zBangladesh. 001434082 650_6 $$aSociété civile$$zBangladesh. 001434082 651_0 $$aBangladesh$$xPolitics and government. 001434082 651_6 $$aBangladesh$$xPolitique et gouvernement. 001434082 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001434082 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aTasnim, Farhat.$$tCivil Society in Bangladesh.$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore Pte.
