- W850741259 abstract "Introduction Crisis of governance has become endemic in Bangladesh irrespective of regimes. Concerns of general people are thus always on the increase. In fact, political parties of the land have miserably failed to establish a consensus over the ground rules for democratic competition and dissent (Jahan, 2000). It is no wonder that such politics breeds a politicised bureaucracy and a malfeasant system of law and order. And, these instruments of governance, operating without accountability and transparency, leads to the machinery of state being used as a political resource rather than an instrument of governance (Sobhan, 2000). It is obvious that good governance is a must for the development and growth of a nation (World Bank, 1997). And, the most important distinction among countries relates not to their form of government but to their degree of government (Huntington, 1968). The tumultuous politics and politicised state institutions have always had a bearing on governance and Bangladesh case is hardly an exception. As government has to function through various systems and processes of the government machinery and private initiatives, the precondition is that the machinery and processes be good, flexible, sound, efficient, cost-effective and objective in approach. A nation's governance plays the vital role in shaping the destiny of its people (Ghosh, 2003: 28). Good governance, since ancient times, has been conceptualised as an ideal state. This notion endures even now, as good governance is seen to bring in happiness and welfare of the people. It is also associated with efficient and effective administration in a democratic framework (Vayunandan, 2003:16). Every time elections take place in Bangladesh with the hope of transition from one generation of politicians to the next so that corruption lessens and good prospects for effective governance prevail (Shobhan, 2006: 374). However, frustration becomes the ultimate result more often than not. And, centering the previous 2009 elections, there was an absolute chaos in the country (Quddusi, 2009). Bangladesh is now going through a very intriguing period of time with the people suffering and the state machinery remaining in a quandary. While people's hardships seem to be a predestined affair in the context of Bangladesh's chequered political history, the state machinery's predicament results from the lackadaisical approach our ministers are used to taking in serving the country. Some ministers of the government have already become laughing stocks with their gratuitous remarks. Some troublesome issues facing Bangladesh severely are enumerated below under various headings: Shutdowns and Showdowns Of late, shutdowns and showdowns have become the order of the day in the country (Quddusi, April 10, 2013). Shutdowns by the opposition and on occasions by the pro-government forces, showdowns by the forces and counter-forces are now the regular features of contemporary Bangladesh. The government, on the other hand, seems to be shutting all the doors. Nothing good seems in sight. However, one thing remains guaranteed and that is immense sufferings of the masses to which none seems to have the time to really look at. A day of shutdown causes a loss of Tk 1,600 crore to the businesses of all segments--from exports to retail shops, a leading chamber said in a survey released recently. In accordance with Dhaka Chamber of Commerce and Industry (DCCI), the country faces, on average, 40 days of shutdowns a year, which means the financial losses stand at Tk 64,000 crore or 6.5 per cent of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) and the garment sector takes the hardest blow, counting Tk 360 crore in loss for a day of shutdown (The Daily Star, April 5,2013). A number of points are at issue these days. And, number of items on the list seems to be increasing day by day. Reinstatement of caretaker government, trials of war criminals, banning of Jamaat-Shibir, Gonojagoron Mancha's six points, Hefajate Islam's 13 points have really filled up the table by now. …" @default.
