War, hegemony, and its global cost

The recent tensions surrounding the United States, Israel, and Iran have brought to the fore an old problem in international politics—the reliance of powerful states on military power in world politics. While the governments involved justify their actions in the name of security and deterrence, the larger reality paints a different picture. This conflict once again demonstrates how the politics of geopolitical hegemony profoundly affects the lives of ordinary people, regional stability, and the global economy.

Nobody knows about March 7 'Call Ready' microphone, outlet found closed

The 'Call Ready' microphone service operated under significant risk to ensure that Bangabandhu's historic speech reached the public. Even today, whenever Bangabandhu's speech is broadcast, the phrase 'Call Ready' inscribed on the microphone in front of Bangabandhu's illustrious visage instinctively comes to mind. Nevertheless, even after 55 years of independence, Call Ready has yet to receive any official recognition from the state.

Bangladesh’s garment industry at risk?

Bangladesh’s ready-made garment industry has long been a key driving force of the country’s economy. Duty-free access to the European Union market has particularly helped the sector build a strong position in the global market. However, the recently announced free trade agreement between the EU and India has created major concerns for Bangladesh. Analysts and industry insiders believe that once the deal comes into effect, Bangladesh’s competitive position in the European market may face serious challenges.
