| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Despite a positive economic outlook in 2014, political tensions and income
inequalities continue to challenge the country’s democratic image. Power has been
concentrated in the executive, state violence has increased, and there is pressure to
improve working conditions and infrastructure in the garment sector. For the reelected
Awami League government, addressing employment issues is essential, given
its focus on attracting foreign investment. |
