Summary, etc |
Bangladesh genocide is the only genocide in modern times that resulted from a policy of deliberate containment of the democratic aspirations of its people. Other genocides have resulted from immediate racial, religious, linguistic or ethnic animosities. No such animosity could be found, at least overtly, on the part of the 9West) Pakistanis against the Bengalis. In the case of Bangladesh, what mattered most was the refusal of the Pakistan military to accept the verdict of 1970 general election and handover power to a democratically elected political party from the eastern wing of Pakistan. 25 March-the first night of genocide – is what gave birth to 26 March and the Mujibnagar Cabinet is historically correct in identifying the latter as the Independence Day.<br/>Indeed, the complex combination of the demand for democracy and the victimhood of genocide is what had composed the identity of the nation and eventually gave birth to it. Therefore, any attempt to restrict the functional and moral obligations of the two is bound to result in social instability. But genocide is as much a tale of the state as it is a tale of the person. As epicenter of 1971 genocide, Dhaka University has attained a special place in genocidal discourse, and this is as much for the reason of the state as it is for the indiscriminate, and yet killing of persons on the campus. Methodologically then it becomes meaningful to focus on Dhaka University as it had experienced a statist policy of murder and destruction while those who had survived are still in a position to narrate the painful experience of the person. In collecting the victims’ tale, however, a deliberate attempt was made to search and reach out to the subalterns, including gardeners, security guards, peons and other less recognizable office bearers of the university. A critical awareness of genocide is bound to embolden the person in the vital task of putting an end to all crimes against humanity. |
