Robert Thörlind delves into the intricate relationship between development, decentralization, and democracy in the Bengal region. He examines how West Bengal and Bangladesh, while undergoing government decentralization simultaneously, have navigated their unique socio-political landscapes. The study reveals how social capital has been constructed and politicized in each area, influencing local governance and citizen engagement.
Through rigorous analysis, Thörlind sheds light on the diverse impacts of decentralization on democracy, including how community participation varies between the two regions. The work ultimately offers valuable insights into the role of citizen involvement in shaping governance outcomes, underscoring the importance of context in political and developmental processes.
