Media And The Liberation War Of Bangladesh

Muntassir Mamoon and Murshida Bintey Rahman's 'Media And The Liberation War Of Bangladesh' documents how the 1971 liberation struggle resonated around the world. Artists composed music and painted pictures of the fight, while crowds took to the streets in support of the Bengali cause. Newspapers, periodicals, and journals published articles, comments, and editorials highlighting Bangladesh's plight. These recorded documents have now been gathered by Bangladesh Charcha (Centre for Bangladesh Studies) for publication. This volume collects news, editorials, and essays from The New Age, a newspaper published from New Delhi.

The book preserves a vital piece of history through the eyes of the international press. It shows how global media covered the war and shaped international opinion. For researchers, students, and anyone interested in the liberation war, this collection offers valuable primary source material. The editors have done important work in collating these scattered records into a single accessible volume. It stands as a testament to the worldwide solidarity Bangladesh received during its struggle for freedom.
