Basic facts about the land, economy, social and political institutions, and other aspects of the life of the people of Bangladesh, together with key documents on their recent struggle for independence, including the complete text of the ‘ Anderson Papers ’.
Intended as supplementary reading and study material in both high school and college courses which deal with South Asia, International Relations or U.S. Foreign policy.

problems, and today’s critical foreign policy issues.
