Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science - Year 2018, Vol 23, Issue 3
Abstract
The Rise Of New Global Security Challenges Has Not Kept Bangladesh Unaffected. The World Has Witnessed Terrorist Attacks In Parris, Brussels, Nice, Munich, London And Many Other Places In Recent Times. Bangladesh Has Witnessed A Sharp Rise In Terrorism Since The Mid-Nineties. In 2016, It Has Experienced One Of The Deadliest Terrorist Attacks In Holey Artisan Bakery Cafe In Dhaka, Which Has Exposed The Vulnerability Of This Country To Transnational Terrorism And Religio-Socio-Political Scourge. Terrorism In Bangladesh Is An Internationally Linked Phenomenon. In Case Of Bangladesh, History, Geostrategic Location, Religious Diversity, Weak Infrastructure, Demographic Factors And Socio-Economic Conditions Are Held Primarily Responsible For The Formation And Dissemination Of Extremist Views Along With The Proliferation Of Terrorist Activities And Events. The Transnational Form Of The Menace Is A Challenge For Nation Like Bangladesh. Hence, Bangladesh Needs To Identify The Emerging Nature Of Terrorism And Solutions To These More Specifically. We Need More Research Guided Policies By The Academia And Policy Planners. Violent Terrorist Incidents In Recent Times Have Multiplied The Risks And Vulnerabilities And These Are Possessing Some Serious Threat To Life, The Economy, Political And Religious Pluralism As Well As National Security. In Response To Such Violent Terrorist Activities The Government Of Bangladesh Has Intensified Its Counter-Terrorism Measures And In Some Operations It Has Deployed Army Personnel Apart From The Traditional Civil Forces To Curb The Situation. However, With The Arise Of New Facets Of Terrorist Threat, The Country Needs To Revisit Its Counterterrorism Strategy And Adjust It By Adapting New Toolsto Meet The Challenges It Faces.
