How institutions actually function — versus how they're designed to function — across Bangladesh's governance system. I study the gap between formal state capacity and lived public-service delivery, focusing on decentralization, local government performance, and accountability structures.
The forces that quietly decide which policies survive contact with reality. My work here traces how political incentives, informal market structures, and resource-allocation decisions shape development outcomes — particularly where formal policy meets community-level economic life.

Bangladesh's domestic governance doesn't happen in a vacuum — it's shaped by regional power dynamics, cross-border trade dependencies, and shifting security alignments. I track how geopolitical pressure and climate-driven migration filter down into domestic policy constraints.
