Journal Title: International Journal of History and Research (IJHR) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2

Abstract

Bengali nationalism in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was in a few respects, (Political, Social, Cultural ) with a thriving nationwide movement. Nationalism in Bangladesh is not a new matter; Bengali national identity also depends on this background. The seeds for revolutionaries’ activities were sown as the beginning of the twentieth century. Japan had emerged as a dominant power in Asia and had attracted the attention of Indian sub-continental social reformers in the nineteenth century. The nature of nationalism and the image of Japan has dramatically changed from 1905 to the late 1930s & Japan’s policy shifted from liberal internationalism to Asian regionalism in the late 1930s as of Japan’s own domestic politics. We need to highlight the nationalism trends in Bengal for the clear understanding of this historical event. This paper attempts to focus Japan’s impacts on Indian sub-continental nationalist to fabricating a new path to Bengali nationalism
