This book reclaims Bangladesh's institutional historiography by retrieving the eclipsed political parties and the inheritances from its earlier configuration as East Pakistan from 1947 to 1971. This is a striking retelling of the political parties originating under the British Raj and trekking through the post-colonial institution-building challenges in South Asia. East Pakistan's institutional experiences, political events, and identity imagination are still very relevant to Bangladesh's continuing slog in democratic institution-building. With a new trajectory for Bangladeshi political heritages, the book is intellectually relevant to anyone interested in South Asia's political development.
