Product Description

This book provides an incisive analysis of how the regime overthrown by the July Revolution constitutionally converted Bangladesh from a republican democracy to a totalitarian necrocracy. This was done by the Fifteenth Amendment of the Constitution. This Amendment— in effect, a wholesale rewriting of the Constitution—destroyed the Constitution by taking away people’s rights to vote and speak. It established a deceased leader as the symbolic head of state. To perpetuate a brutal, despotic regime, the Amendment went so far as to stipulate for thoughtcrimes. The anti-people Constitution crafted by the Fifteenth Amendment was given the status of a holy book that all citizens must believe in and the legislature must never amend or repeal. It is crucial that the Supreme Court declares the Fifteenth Amendment unconstitutional in its entirety to restore democracy, the rule of law, the rights of the people, and to preclude similar amendments in the future. This book also addresses certain constitutional issues relating to the current interim government, including its constitutionality, legitimacy, and tenure.
