The Jamaat Question in Bangladesh addresses the complex intersection of global politics and local dynamics in Bangladesh, particularly in relation to Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami (Jamaat).

With multidisciplinary insights and perspectives, the contributors to this volume provide an objective socio-historical analysis of Islam, politics and society in Bangladesh. Separating fact from fiction, they attempt to uncover the truth about Jamaat, the largest Islam-based political party in the country. Suppressed and marginalized by the BAL regime, Jamaat remains active in the social landscape of Bangladesh. What makes Jamaat so resilient against all odds? Can it peacefully coexist with rival political parties in a polarized nation such as Bangladesh? This book seeks to answer these crucial questions.

An essential read for those interested in Bangladeshi politics and political Islam.

Syed Serajul Islam is Professor and Former Chair of the Department of Political Studies at Lakehead University, Orillia, Canada. Md Saidul Islam is Associate Professor and the Post-graduate Coordinator of Sociology at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.
